Macbeth, President Blue & White Restaurants 120 Short Road, Melbourne, 200400 Dear Mr. Macbeth, Here is the report you requested on October 26th studying the feasibility of opening for breakfast. Other members of Kathteen Management Consultant are in the process of researching and preparing the reports about your operations and training programs. This report shows that with only a small investment in new equipment and a slight increase n personnel and associated expenses, Blue & White could increase its profits by about 20 percent simply by opening for breakfast. Other fast-food chains have increased their profits that way, and Blue & White's customers indicate that they would prefer breakfast at Blue& White to those restaurants currently offering breakfast. At present, restaurants associated with the large motel chains capture most of the breakfast market. The well-known fast-food chains also capture a significant portion of that market. Our surveys show that many commuters who now eat at home, in one of the motel restaurants, or at one of the other fast-food establishments would prefer the quick service and comfortable atmosphere offered at Blue & White. The most common response from persons already familiar with Blue & White was "Definitely. Blue & White s Petter. " I have enjoyed preparing this report for you, and I have learned some interesting things about the restaurant business and about Blue & White while working on it. Please call me directly at 5454-5455 when t can be, of further service. Sincerely, Kathleen Wu

I received the products and invoice, but there are some mistakes with my order. The invoice states that I ordered two curtains, but in fact, I only ordered and received one. I would like to make sure that I am refunded the extra money I paid for the extra curtain. It is also written on the invoice that I ordered a small rug. I never ordered the rug, but I received it anyway. Please give me instructions on how I can return it to you. I would like my money back for this item, too. Also, even though the price of one set of bed sheets is listed as $19.99 on your web site, I was charged $29.99. This is not a small jump in price. Could you tell me the reason for it? I would like to be paid back the difference. I am sending along a copy of my invoice. Please look at it and correct the errors as soon as possible. I will follow up this letter with a call to your headquarters. Regards, Janet Perez

Call 555-0890 or email membership@bernadineclinic.com to inquire about becoming a member today! From: Margaret Jones To: membership@bernadineclinic.com Subject: Query Hello, My name is Margaret Jones, and I am interested in becoming a member of the Bernadine Clinic. I was able to learn about the facilities and services on offer for members via your website, and it sounds like exactly the sort of help I need to get in shape. However, I am concerned about the cost of membership. According to the website, I would have to sign up for a minimum of 24 months, at a cost of nearly $250 per month. I am only earning a modest salary, so this would be a major cost for me. I was wondering if it might be possible to commit to a shorter trial period at a reduced price. That way, I can determine for certain whether becoming a full-time member would be a good investment. I look forward to your reply on this matter. Regards, Margaret Jones

单选题27 Bay State Avenue Amherst, Massachusetts 01002 Palmer Realtors 1537 Aston Parkway Greenwich, Connecticut 06830 Dear Mr. Hargrave,　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　October 15 Thank you for notifying me of the lot (#4415 Greenwich Township) now available for purchase. You asked me to send you in writing a bid for that property. I am willing to purchase that lot for US$540,000 but no more. Another property, lot #4718, also in Greenwich, last listed at $458,000, has also attracted my attention. If the owner of lot #4415 cannot lower his asking price, or if another buyer bids higher, we can pursue discussion on lot #4718. Since our last phone conversation I have been in touch with your recommended contractor, Connecticut Homeland, in Greenwich. I have, however, enlisted the services of an architect here in Amherst to draw up the blueprint for the new home once the lot purchase is settled. You said earlier that the seller of lot #4415 should decide by the end of this month. Do you still think that is the case? In the meantime, please keep me posted on any changes in the status of lot #4718. Again, thank you for all your help and sage advice. I appreciate your courtesies and professionalism. Sincerely yours, Albert Mills Albert Mills
