3.           Cost: Clerical operations cannot be carried out in the absence of stationery. Even though, the cost of stationery should not exceed 40% to 50% of the non-salary expenditure.

 

4.           Goodwill: The letters must give a good impression to the recipient. They create goodwill for the firm.
