(C0013)

OK, so now the last point on our agenda. Jill,
let’s
go over the profit and loss statement.

Great. Well, the main issue here, as you can see,
is that our expenses are through the roof.

expenditures
on
en-
tertainment and travel are out of control. Look at
these bills for example. Just this month

charges!


A:
OK, thank you. I’ll look into
it.


B:
The list goes on and on. Here, this is a bill for five
thousand dollars for spa treatments!
