Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Sara will be able to recover against accountant Alice for fraud because privity is immaterial in considering the issue of whether an accountant is liable for fraud.
Sally will not recover, however, because the third person must either be known to the accountant or a member of a class known to the accountant.
