Question

You have just received your final exam result for the accounting course. You think the teacher has unfairly awarded you a C grade as he forgot his commitment. The teacher had announced that all those students who used the Optimal Cost Method in the exam will get 6 additional marks. You are sure, you did not get these marks. Although, you work in a restaurant to meet your expenses, you have only missed two classes. Also, you have a very good understanding of accounts due to the teacher’s very good method of explaining the concepts which made the course very enjoyable. TASK: Write a memo to your teacher to correct this mistake and alter your grade to B from C. Use the correct memo format (assume the name of the teacher). Make sure, your understanding of the WRITING PROCESS and the 7 C’s is clearly demonstrated in this memo. Word count: 150 - 170

Answer 1

Answer:

To: Mr. John Connoda (Accounting Course 203)

From: Tony O. (Student ID 23145)

Subject: Correction in my Course Grade

Date: December 2, 2020

Sir, I wish to draw your attention to my Accounting Course 203 Grade, which was put as C, instead of B.

I understand that I made a C grade in the course.  However, it seems that you forgot to add the 6 additional marks that you promised those who used the Optimal Cost Method in the exam.  I used this method to answer the relevant questions.

If you award me the additional 6 marks my course grade will move to B.  Could you look into this issue to make the necessary adjustment?

I look forward to receiving a revised grade.

Regards,
