 A:    OK, so now the last point on our agenda¹. Jill, let’s
       go over the profit and loss statement.

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

 A:     Let’s  see... These  numbers  are  off  the  charts!
       What’s going on here!

 B:    Well,  um,  sir,  the  company  expenditures  on  en-

       over twenty thousand dollars for hotel 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!

 A:    Thank you; that will be all. I’ll take care of it.

 B:     Look at this one sir,  eight  thousand dollars
       were  spent  in  one  night  at  a  place  called  ”Wild
