John from sales has just sent you an e-mail. He needs a decision made on the Johnson account as soon as possible.

You decide to take the initiative and ______.

Answers


Answer: D. Make the decision

John from the sales department in the absence of his boss has to make a prompt decision regarding a serious matter in the office. Though John may have been hesitant to do the decision without his boss, he still did it anyway because the job calls for it. 

The answer is: Make the decision.

Because the decision has to be made immediately and the boss is busy at a meeting, the right procedure to execute is to come to a resolution alone. In that position, the person is competent enough and has the authority to determine issues regarding the Johnson account, even without advice from the boss.

When you are quoting something, of course, that sentence needs to be separated by quotation marks, and the comma needs to be inside the quote, so first comma, then close the quote. After that continue with the narration, put a comma, open quotation mark, write your quote, put a full stop, and close the quotation mark.
