Accountant: The local zoo's revenue from admissions fees for this year was lower than it has been for the last several years. This year, the zoo shortened its hours of operation from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. to 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is likely, therefore, that the zoo's decreased revenue from admissions fees this year is due to the shortened hours of operation.

(B) The amount of time it takes to buy an admission ticket for the zoo has increased in recent years. (C) The zoo has increased the number of animal species available for visitors to see. (D) In addition to new hours of operation, this year, the zoo closed for maintenance during several days on which it had remained open in previous years. your answer (E) A recent report on changes in the popularity of different types of entertainment shows that the popularity of zoos has declined significantly in the last year. correct |
