Now Your Turn

SAMPLE DIALOG

A: I have some very bad news.

B: What’s that?

A: The company’s products haven’t sold well for a long time, you know.

B: Yeah. I know we’ve been operating a t a loss for several months.

A: Exactly. And after a long discussion with my partner, I’ve come to the conclusion that the best course of action is to file for bankruptcy 1.

B: What? Bankruptcy?  I’d suggest that you find a merger 2 partner instead. With combined strength, we can face the stiff market competition.

A: Our sales have been low a long time. Who will be willing to merger with us?

B: You can tell them we have a team of well-trained skilled workers and our equipment is not technologically 3 backward. In fact, we have a lot of to offer.

A: Sorry, but I’m still not confident at all. I still prefer to declare bankruptcy.

B: When do you plan to make it known to the staff?

A: Sometimes next month.

B: What kind of severance 4 package are you going to offer them?

A: Unfortunately, the best we can do is offer one month’s salary.

B: That’s terrible.
