Answer:

Escrow account

Explanation:

An escrow account is a type of account in which a third party helds a certain amount of money while two parties complete a transaction. This is used to protect people from fraud when they are involve in transactions like purchasing a house as both parties can trust that the money is safe and the third party only provides the funds when they agree with everything and are happy with the results.

According to this, the answer is that if a purchasing agent must put up a cash deposit for construction services, for security purposes, instead of giving it directly to the contractor, he or she may insist that it be placed in an escrow account because the money would be safe and it would be maintained by a third party that will provide the funds when the services are complete.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Revenues

Explanation:

The role of news organisations in political campaigns in recent times has been very significant.

Critics find it hypocritical because when paid to run political campaigns, news organisations do not reject lies by public officials, because they were paid for the air time.

For example, according to information from statistica, it estimates that more than 6 billion dollars were spent in the US Presidential elections campaign on broadcast TV in 2016.

Scrutiny would involve critical examination of the activities of this news organisations.
