Soni was just told that if she can double her sales numbers, she'll get a $50,000 bonus at the end of the year. That bonus would really help because Soni is saving up for a bigger house.

A) She will be motivated because she values the reward.
B) She will be motivated because this is the same bonus offered to her co-workers.
C) She will not be motivated because $50,000 is not enough.
D) She will not be motivated because the outcome does not seem likely to her.
