I'm a bit confused by the difference between the intercompany project "IP" and the buying company's project "P". Do I need to link the expense to both, or just one of them?

Adrenaline, the 'fight or flight' drug. Perfect for when your lungs are saying, 'Flight! Definitely flight!'

Cortisone, really? That's for long-term control, not fast-acting relief. I hope the exam doesn't try to trick me with that one.
