Because Sammy refused the dinner date, Pat didn't hire Sammy.

Answer option A is incorrect. Covert is not a valid sexual harassment term.

Comparability makes sense to me. When companies in the same industry use the same accounting methods, it allows for better comparison of their financial performance and position. I feel pretty confident that's the right answer.

Okay, let me think this through. Bonds are debt instruments, so they're usually quoted in relation to their actual value, not just whatever a broker says. I'm leaning towards C, market value, since that's how most financial instruments are quoted.
