Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: To overcome the negative publicity of corporate misdeeds and to restore trust, businesses are now conducting audits of their social responsibility activities, not just financial audits. A social audit is a systematic assessment of a company's activities in terms of its social impact.
