Answer 1

In the promotion "Buy two bottles of soda and get one free," when a customer purchases 4 bottles of soda, they qualify for one free bottle since they are buying 4 (which allows them to claim 2 free bottles based on the promotion).

Here's the breakdown:

• The customer buys 4 bottles, costing 4 x $2.00 = $8.00.
• According to the promotion, they get 1 bottle free.

The company is forfeiting the sale amount of that 1 free bottle:

1 x $2.00 = $2.00.

Therefore, the correct response is:

They would give away one free bottle losing the sale amount of 1 x $2.00 = $2.00.
