Ejercicio 1
In the beginning of the dialogue, Philip tells Susie that would eliminate Delavigne's profit margins.
In the beginning of the dialogue, Philip tells Susie that adhering to the charter would eliminate Delavigne's profit margins.
adhering to the charter: This is the best choice here. Philip says: "the margin costs alone involved in adopting this charter would kill our profits". This means that once Delavigne "adopts" or "accepts" the charter, they will have to use legitimate manufacturing sources, which will be more expensive than their current manufacturers. They would therefore stop making a profit.
researching the charter: This is incorrect. "Researching" the charter would not cost any money. Philip speaks about the research he has already done, in order to arrive at his conclusion that "adopting the charter" would be expensive.
paying the fee to join the charter agreement: This is incorrect. Philip does not mention anything about charges to be paid for signing the charter. He speaks of "margin costs", which are the costs that will come as a result of Delavigne's hiring a company listed on the OILS charter.
the margin costs of refusing to accept the charter: This is incorrect. In fact, Philip says the opposite. He is afraid that the "margin costs" which will result from Delavigne accepting the charter will damage Delavigne's profits.

2 downturn: A "downturn" is a period of economic decline, for example: We are currently experiencing a downturn, and I doubt we will be able to expand this year. Bruno says that "despite the current economic downturn, I'm optimistic that this coming year will be good for us."

3 payroll: The "payroll" of a company refers to the cost of paying the salaries of a group of employees. Bruno says "We certainly have some important decisions to make regarding...personnel payroll." This means that the company needs to make some decisions about staff salaries. Note that "payroll" can also refer to a list of employees to be paid, with the amount due to each.
