    Option (A) 7.5 million

    Explanation:

    General coupon liability

    = Coupon liability - (Actual redemption * Reedemable coupons)

    also,

    Coupon liability = Sales * Reedemable coupons * 70%

    or

    Coupon liability = 100 million * $0.30 * 0.7

    or

    Coupon liability = 100 million * $0.30 * 0.7 = 21 million

    therefore,

    General coupon liability

    = $21 million - (45 million * $0.30)

    = $21 million - $13.5 million

    = $7.5 million

    Hence,

    the correct answer is option (A) $7.5 million
