–PRACTICE EXAM 2– Questions 186 through 190 refer to the following e-mail and menu. From: Marilyn Cantarella To: Jason Kaplan Subject: Menu changes Hello, Jason, Our board of directors met last week to discuss what changes we want to make in the menu for our popular Dixie Grill restaurants. They were of the opinion that we need to make our food more appealing to those people looking for less fat and fewer calories. I agreed with their decision and they asked me to develop some new food ideas that reflect this decision. I came up with some recommenda-tions, which they have reviewed, but before acting on anything, they wanted to know what you thought of them. They specifically want to know how difficult it would be to incorporate some of the new dishes and what we should charge for them.You can see that I haven’t put any prices on anything. I think in the future more and more restaurants will want to target people concerned with how much fat and how many calories they are consuming in their diet. Even fast food restaurants are acting on this trend. I have another question for you. Do you think we should include a breakdown of all entrees in terms of nutrition, including amount and kinds of fat and calories, or do you think this be a turnoff to many customers? We want people to continue to think of us as friendly. I look forward to getting your response. The Dixie Grill The Popular Choice: Where the Costs Are Down and the Flavor Up!

Although the new city law has good intentions, I do not believe it will benefit our fair metropolis. Granting tax exemptions to entice a business to relocate here might help unemployment rates, but the rates in our city—and our state, for that matter—are already very low.What our city needs is to have everyone pay a fair share of the tax burden. Letting a large company pay less means that regular citizens will have to pay more, by comparison. Our city offers many benefits to a company; there‘s no need to add corporate tax breaks to this list.
