From the question, we are informed that Rubina is the director of procurement at Baines Corporation and that she plans to send a memo to the employees in her department outlining some changes in the company's personnel policies as she believes that most of the employees will view the changes favorably.
Since she is of the opinion that most of the employees will view the changes favorably, she can describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo. This is because she believes the memo will get a favourable audience. In a situation whereby she is not sure if it will be favourable, in the begining of the memo, she may have to offer and apology and tell them the rationale behind the memo before going into further details.

Answer:
10%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Purchase value of the stock = $80
Number of years = 15
Times = 4
So, the return on owning this stock is
= Number of times^(1 ÷ number of years) - 1
= 4^(1÷15) - 1
= 4^0.0666666667 - 1
= 1.0968249797 - 1
= 0.0968249797
= 10% round off
All other things that are mentioned in the question is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

Explanation:
The computation of the revenue variance is shown below:
Revenue variance = Revenue at Flexible budget - Actual revenue
where,
Revenue at flexible budget is
= 3,630 × $34.50
= $125,235
And, the actual revenue is $121,234
So, the revenue variance is
= $125,235 - $121,234
= $4,001 unfavorable
We simply deduct the actual revenue from the flexible budget revenue so that the revenue variance could come
