A primary concern among manufacturers polled in a 1998 survey was the inefficiency of trade promotions- inducements offered by manufacturers to retailers to encourage them to reduce retail prices temporarily so as to boost sales volume. Such inducements may include temporarily reduced costs of goods, free goods, or display allowances (fees manufacturers pay retailers to encourage them to allocate premium shelf space to a product). At the heart of manufacturers' dissatisfaction lies concern regarding widespread retailer opportunism. Although consumers know from experience the approximate frequency of promotional pricing, they do not typically have complete information about ongoing trade promotions in a given period, so retailers can profit by sometimes choosing not to pass along their own savings to their customers. Inefficient use of trade promotion dollars has prompted several large manufacturers to adopt an "everyday low price" policy for their goods, but at least one diaper manufacturer found it had to revert to its former pricing strategies in the face of increasing promotional competition from other brands. Adopting an alternative approach, some manufacturers have themselves advertised ongoing promotions. By informing at least some customers about promotions, manufacturers believe they can regulate retailer opportunism by increasing customers' propensity to search for discounted prices.

An investor will use $2,000 to purchase 10 shares of a certain stock at $200 per share. At the same time, she will invest another sum of money in a certificate of deposit (CD) that earns 2% simple interest annually. The investor would like to know how much money she should invest in the CD to meet her goal of net earnings (before any taxes or other fees) of $360 from the two investments at the end of one year.

In the table, select for CD assuming 10% gain the amount the investor should invest in the CD to meet her goal under the assumption that the stock price will have increased by 10% at the end of one year, and select for CD assuming 5% loss the amount she should invest in the CD to meet her goal under the assumption that the stock price will have decreased by 5% at the end of one year. Make only two selections, one in each column.
