Scenario 6-5
Joe Rowan walked into Pederson Toyota one day and began looking at price stickers on Toyota Camrys. He was interested in that model because he had seen a number of television and magazine ads describing the car's features and reputation for reliability. After closely examining the stickers, Joe noticed a line that said "Dealer Promotion Allowance - $125.00." Joe asked a salesperson what that meant. The reply was that it was a charge that helped the dealership pay for local advertising to encourage consumers to shop at that particular dealer. After further discussion, Joe learned that almost 5% of the cost of the vehicle comes from expense for national and local advertising.

• A) The Federal Trade Commission
