Questions 1-2 refer to the following email.
From: Inuchiyo Hamachi i
To: George Freidrichs
Date: March 15
Subject: Loan application from Gregor Armastich
Dear Mr. Freidrichs:
This email is a follow-up to our discussion yesterday afternoon concerning Mr. Gregor Armastich, who has applied for a business loan of €175,000 in order to renovate and redecorate his existing restaurant facilities. After doing a standard credit check on Mr. Armastich and his business, the Best of Bologna, I have found some worrisome indicators that he did not disclose in his application. He has several outstanding loans that have gone unpaid for some time. There is also an unpaid bill to a building contractor who previously did some work for him. This unpaid debt means the contractor is officially an unpaid creditor. You’ll find a list of Mr. Armastich’s four largest debts in the
attachment. Given this poor credit history, I must advise against Mr. Armastich’s application. In addition, there are definite signs that there will be an economic downturn in the near future, which will undoubtedly have an impact on Mr. Armastich’s business.
Sincerely,
Inuchiyo Hamachi
