You are going to hear a talk between Hector Grant and John Martin. Before you listen to the conversation look at these statements, which you will mark T (True) or F (False) after you have listened to the tape.
Exercise 1
| 1. | Hector Grant is discouraged to find out that they haven't had a single order out of John Martin's visit to Abraca. |
| 2. | John Martin is optimistic about the Abracan market because a very large order has already been made - office furniture and equipment for two entire government departments. |
| 3. | John has already sent pro forma invoices to Abraca so that the Ministry of Works can apply to the National Bank for foreign exchange. |
| 4. | In their order the Abracan Ministry of Works want a reduction on a unit price per desk for a larger quantity than Harper & Grant Ltd. originally quoted for the price to be f.o.b. Djemsa. |
| 5. | If Harper & Grant accept the requirements of the Abracan Ministry of Works it would be the largest single order in the history of the country. |
| 6. | Harper & Grant hardly have the capacity to produce the order also it'd be in addition to the budgeted turnover for the year, so there will be no recovery on marginal cost. |
| 7. | The terms of payment are conditional on the rate of exchange which prevails on the date of Harper & Grant's quotation not fluctuating more than three per cent either way. |
