Also, for simplicity, assume that if a consumer does not redeem the voucher, Groupon and American Apparel will keep the revenue instead of making a refund. (These are the common assumptions you will use throughout Question 3. Also, notice that you can find information about American Apparel’s gross profit on page 6 of the case, in the footnote.
