Answer to Question 1

Offering cash rebates, discounts, or lease incentives will each decrease profits. Offering any of these incentives will, effectively, increase the average total cost for the company. In deciding which of these strategies to use, the firms will probably assess consumer demand to see which approach consumers prefer.
