    (d) Equity theory

    Explanation:

    Equity theory is based in the idea that individuals are motivated by fairness, and if they identify inequities in the input or output ratios of themselves and their referent group, they will seek to adjust their input to reach their perceived equity. In this scenario Jay was demoted by the unfair treatment he received when compared to the treatment of the newly recruited sales representatives.
