This is true. We read that "Gross (revenues)" amounted to $980 million, whereas Delavigne's expenses were only $887 million. This means that the gross revenues were greater than the expenses, and so the Delavigne Corporation made a net profit.
This is not true. The report states that "Perfumes remain at the core of the Delavigne Corporation's product base", meaning that perfumes are very important, and they have not been replaced by make-up.
This is a true statement. According to the report, "the only sector showing virtually no growth is Europe", whereas things are going well in the Asian market, "where consumers bought 13.9% more Delavigne perfumes than in the first half of last year".
This is false. The report states that one of the reasons for high growth in Asia is "the opening of our new flagship store in the heart of Beijing's commercial center". Delavigne has already opened a large cosmetics store in Beijing!

Skin Care
The line of Delavigne products which have seen the largest is skin care. We can attribute this trend to the Japanese market. The world's oldest population is also one of the wealthiest, and they're ready to money on looking younger. making up only 2% of the world's population, the Japanese account for one fifth of skin care sales. Moreover, sales of Delavigne skin care products in Japan are 14.6% in the past six months.
for the second half of the year
I can predict with confidence that the Delavigne Corporation's strong performance will continue until the end of the year. The company's finances are extremely healthy (as you can see in the eight-page addendum). Retail sales typically increase 50-70% in the three months leading up to December 31st. Even in markets which appear saturated such as Europe and North America, shoppers increase their of Delavigne products towards the holiday season.
Our very healthy profits in the first half of this year will not only result in generous dividends for our shareholders, but will in large part be re-invested into even better results. For example, I am proposing a of $1m to the Marketing Department to a Europe-wide campaign aimed at increasing sales of our mid-range collections. Additionally, the Research & Development Department will be embarking on a three-month trek into the Indonesian jungle to hunt for new ingredients. , we will also be opening several new stores in China, to get the most out of this exciting market. The future's bright.

1 growth: "Growth" is the best choice here. "Growth" is the noun related to the verb "to grow". Example: "Cats" growth depends mostly on their genes: large cats have large kittens'. You might also like to know that the verb "to grow" is irregular: grow/grew/grown.
1 grow: This is a verb, and we need a noun for this sentence to make sense.
1 grew: This is a verb, and we need a noun for this sentence to make sense.
2 spend: "Spend" is the right answer. To "spend money on something" is to buy something. For example, "When I was younger, I spent all my money on partying".
2 prepare: To "prepare" means to "get ready", which does not make sense here.
2 save: To "save money" is to spend less money, which does not make sense here because the sentence is about consumers buying MORE products, not fewer products.
3 Despite: "Despite" is the correct answer here. We use "despite" to begin sentences when we want to introduce a contrast, or a surprising situation. Here's another example: "Despite being only 8 years old, Rupert is very fashionable".
3 However: "However" is generally used in the middle of a sentence: "I like chips, however I prefer chocolate". It does not make grammatical sense here.
3 Moreover: "Moreover" does not make sense at this point in the report. "Moreover" is used to introduce an extra item, which is even more important than the once you just spoke about: "Philip noticed a woman at the bar. Moreover, she was smiling at him".
4 up: This is the correct choice. The expression "(sales) are up" means that sales have increased or got bigger. Other example: The number of fatal road accidents are up 25% this year.
4 across: It doesn't make sense to use this term here.
4 high: It doesn't make sense to use this term here.
5 Outlook: "Outlook" is the best choice here. A company's "outlook" describes its prospects for the future. Example: "The outlook is good: sales seem to be increasing steadily, so we can expect healthy profits in the coming months".
5 Perspective: A "perspective" is either a "point of view" or a "context". It does not make sense here.
5 Future: Sorry, but "future for the second half of the year" doesn't make sense!
6 balance sheet: This is the best option here. A company's "balance sheet" is a statement showing the financial position of a business on a specified date. This will list the business's assets (e.g. cash and stock) and liabilities (e.g. debts such as bank loans). The "bottom line" shows the net income which was kept (or lost) over the period. Example: "Our company's balance sheet shows how our business is being funded and how we are using these funds".
6 balance: Used alone, a "balance" is a device for weighing something, or the amount of money one has in a bank account. Neither of these meanings makes sense here.
6 consolidation: In a business context, a "consolidation" is "the merger of two or more corporations", which does not make sense here.
7 purchases: This is the best option here. A "purchase" refers to an "acquisition" or something bought.
7 buys: Although as nouns "buy" and (the correct answer) "purchase" are mostly synonymous, we do not generally use the term in the following way: a buy of a product.
7 expending: This is incorrect. The term "expending" is the present participle of the verb "to expend": 'to spend or consume. We are looking for a noun here.
8 generating: "Generating" is the right choice. To "generate" something is to "create" or "develop" it. Let's look at another example: "I've found a great way of generating some extra income: selling my soul to the devil!".
8 hoping: "Hoping" for something is wanting it to happen, without taking any positive action to make it happen, which does not make sense in this sentence, as Icarus is talking about "re-investing" money to get even better results.
8 expecting: "Expecting" something to happen is assuming that it will happen, without taking any positive action to make it happen, which does not make sense in this sentence, as Icarus is talking about "re-investing" money to get even better results.
9 grant: This is the best choice here. Icarus refers to $1 million dollars which will "fund" a marketing campaign. In this context, a "grant" is the most suitable term to use. A "grant" refers to an allocation of money, or a "subsidy". Example: The government has given my small company a grant of $50,000 to help me expand my business.
9 fine: This is incorrect. A "fine" refers to a financial penalty. Example: My bank has given me a $10 dollar fine for not paying $1000 dollars into my account this month. Given the context, the use of the term "fine" is incorrect given that Icarus refers to money that he has given (not charged) the Marketing department.
9 fare: This is incorrect. A "fare" refers to the price we pay for something, usually a travel ticket, for example: The bus fare for this journey is $2 dollars.
10 fund: this is the best choice here. To "fund (something)" is to finance it. Given the context, it makes sense to use this term since Icarus has promised $1 million to the Marketing department.
10 found: This is incorrect. The term "to found" means to establish or create. For example: Bruno Delavigne founded the Delavigne Corporation many years ago.
10 funds: This is incorrect. "Funds" refers to a general amount of money available for a specific purpose. For example: We don't have the funds to buy you a horse, darling. The use of the noun form "funds" is incorrect here.
11 Finally: This is the right answer. We often use "finally" in business reports or speeches to introduce our last point: "Finally, I'd like to thank you all for coming to hear me speak today".
11 Last: Sorry, but this is not a natural way to introduce a final point. "Lastly" may be considered as acceptable.
11 Eventually: Sorry, but this is not a natural way to introduce a final point. "Eventually" suggests that something happened over a long period of time, which does not make sense here.

1 earnings: This is a correct choice. "Earnings" in this case refers to money obtained by working. Tommy is trying to explain that the 50 dollars his mother found is money he has "earned" or been given for the task of painting Mr. Jones' house. In this dialogue, Ira mentions that Bruno predicted big "earnings" (profits or dividends for the shareholders in this context) for Delavigne in the second financial quarter.
2 dare: This is a correct choice. The verb "to dare" (used as an auxiliary in this sentence) means to have the necessary courage to do something. Another example: "How dare you insult me!" Here, Tommy's mother uses this verb to express her shock and anger that Tommy would lie to her. In this dialogue, Horatio criticizes Ira's tone when he says "how dare you speak to Bruno Delavigne like that." He is questioning Ira's decision to speak so forwardly to Bruno.
3 trust: This is a correct choice. The verb "to trust" means to have confidence in someone (or something). When Tommy's mother says, "Why should I trust you?", she is asking her son to give her a good reason to believe his explanation. In this conversation, Ira Canker wonders if he and the shareholders of Delavigne can trust or believe Bruno's promises after his prediction was erroneous.
4 mislead: This is a correct choice. The verb "to mislead" means to "misinform someone" (on purpose!). Here, "you'd better not be trying to mislead me" has a similar meaning with, "you'd better not be trying to lie or misinform me." In this dialogue, Bruno states that he never intentionally "misled" or misinformed the shareholders.
5 overreacting: This is a correct choice. The verb "to overreact" means to "react", or "respond", in an excessive or extreme manner. By telling his mother that she is "overreacting", Tommy is expressing his belief that his mother's accusations are excessive, or disproportionate, to the event. In this dialogue, Bruno tells Ira Canker that there is no need to "overreact". He is encouraging him to calm down and not get so excited.
