Answer to Question 1

C
In his reply to the customer's request, Bill should use the indirect approach. Never start your
message with bad news. Preserving goodwill toward your company should be your goal in all
business writing.

Answer to Question 2

A
A disadvantage of using a preprinted reply card is that it fails to allow a company to
personalize its response. Despite their lack of personalization, preprinted responses allow a
company to respond to hundreds or thousands of requests promptly.
