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:
c. lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because they take the same amount of money from both poor and rich.
Explanation:
To understand this question, you have to first understand what lump-sum taxes are.
Lump-sum taxes are a system of taxes where everybody pays the same amount of tax no matter their economic status, or their actions. Basically, lump-sum taxes take the same amount of money from the rich and the poor, hugely increasing the burden on the poor and lessening that of the rich.
As an example, a lump-sum tax of $100 would require everybody to pay $100. To a person earning, say $120, that would be a huge hit, and be a huge burden on his normal life. However, to a rich person who earns, say, $10000, that would be much more easier for the rich person.
Hence, lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because of the unfair advantage the rich have over the poor in tax-paying.
