Questions about Homework 4 from Group 3

Dear Professor Tsao:
Good afternoon. There are some questions that we want to discuss with you. After searching the Internet and consulting the textbook, we still have difficulty to revise the memo in the Document Critique part (p. 75). There are our questions:
(1) Can we use memo between two different corporations? Since we have read the appendix and found that memo is usually interoffice, we are confused if it can be used between two different corporations.
(2) Where should we put the address in the memo, which is delivered to one who works at different location?
Furthermore, we found that Blockbuster was part of Viacom, Inc. before 2004. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockbuster_Inc.) However, the date of this memo is
May 8, 2007; we think that it means this memo is delivered between two companies. Thus, we are a little confused and have no idea where to put (or to delete) the address. We really need instructions and deeply appreciate your advice.
Sincerely,
Group 3

Thank you for raising questions. Memo can sometimes be used for external communication as well, though not as common as for internal use. So, don't worry about that. Like you, I am also confused about the address, because the way it was presented is not a standard practice. I command you for researching for clues to solve the problem. My suggestion to you is to ignore the company names and their relations. Just work on the numerous mistakes that are apparent as they appear. We will discuss this in class on Nov. 1.
