Answer to Question 1

A
Explanation: A) The difference between good and bad management can be the difference between profit and loss or, ultimately, between survival and failure.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: B) Festinger proposed that the desire to reduce dissonance depends on moderating factors, including the importance of the elements creating it, the degree of influence we believe we have over it, and the rewards of dissonance. Festinger does not mention the values of the elements or the degree of positive affect toward the behavior. Values and attitudes will vary, but don't reduce dissonance. Awareness of dissonance doesn't mean that dissonance will be reduced.
