Bethany advises Philip about a letter he should write.

Which of the following information or items does Bethany tell Philip to include in his letter?

Remember that there may be more than one correct answer!
Bethany does not advise Philip to include this notice. In fact, she tells him to state that he has the "intention to commence legal action against the debtor". This legal action has not yet begun, although it will if the situation is not resolved.
Philip should include this information in his letter. Bethany tells Philip to note "the total amount owed to (his) company", referring to the full amount of money that the client needs to pay. To "owe (Bruno some money)" means to "be in debt (to Bruno)" or to "need to pay (Bruno)". A "figure" is a value expressed in numbers, e.g. 64, or 456,061.
This is one of the things Philip should include in his letter. Bethany says that the letter "should detail all prior communication that (Philip has) had with the client". This means that Philip should include a list of the contact he has had with his difficult client. "Prior (correspondence)" refers to "past" or "previous" correspondence. This may include letters, emails, faxes, or phone calls.
Philip should include this in his letter. Bethany tells him to include "the outstanding invoices", which means that Philip should send the clients copies of the bills which have not yet been paid. An "outstanding bill" is money owed for goods or services, which remains to be paid.
