    • True

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement is true. When creating memos, it is important to insert reference initials to each memo. Reference initials serve as a way to identify who created or reviewed the memo, providing accountability and ensuring clear communication within an organization.

    The spacing for the headings is:

    • Single Spaced

    • Double Spaced

    • Triple Spaced

    • Quadruple Spaced

    Correct Answer
    A. Double Spaced
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Double Spaced" because it is the standard spacing used for headings in academic writing. Double spacing allows for better readability and separation between different sections or topics. It also provides enough space for annotations or notes to be added between the lines if needed. Single spacing may make the headings appear cramped, while triple or quadruple spacing would create excessive gaps and make the document look unprofessional. Therefore, double spacing strikes a balance between readability and efficient use of space.

    In a memo, the spacing of the body is...

    • Single Spaced

    • Double Spaced

    Correct Answer
    A. Single Spaced
    Explanation
    The spacing of the body in a memo is single spaced. This means that there is no extra space between lines of text, and each line is immediately followed by the next. Single spacing is commonly used in memos to maximize the amount of information that can fit on a page and to create a more concise and compact document. Double spacing, on the other hand, would create more white space between lines, resulting in a longer document.

    Correct Answer
    A. Attachment Notation
    Explanation
    When there is an attachment to the memo, the appropriate notation to indicate this is "Attachment Notation". This notation is used to inform the recipient that there is an attachment accompanying the memo. It helps to ensure that the recipient is aware of the additional document and can easily locate and review it.
