Where does the dollar sign go?
In most English-speaking regions the "$" sign is always written before the numeric amount; for example, $300. Some parts of French-speaking Canada write the sign after the number; e.g. 300$, following the old French practice of placing "FF" (franc français) after the number.
If the amount is in whole dollars, a decimal point to the right of the amount is optional - $300 or $300. are both OK, although most people leave off the decimal point.
If the amount has both dollars and cents associated with it the decimal point is required, and cents are to the right of the whole amount and decimal point: $4.97 for "four dollars and 97 cents"
If the amount is less than a whole dollar there are two ways to write it and you have to be VERY careful not to get them mixed up:
(A) Write the $ sign, a zero and decimal point, then the cents - - OR - -
(B) Write the cents as a whole amount and FOLLOW it with the cents sign.
So the amount "35 cents" could be written as either $0.35 or 35¢
A lot of people who aren't careful get the two ways mixed up and they might right something like "0.50¢" when they really mean "fifty cents". But that's a big mistake because 0.50¢ really means half of one cent!! That error has cost some stores a lot of money because items were priced in fractions of pennies instead of in dollars.

Business letter letter giving instruction?
To write a business letter of any type, use business format. Start with your address in the top right (without your name). Skip a line and put the name and address of the person you are writing to starting at the margin on the left. Skip a line and write a business greeting with a colon after it. Write a short introduction, the instructions, and a conclusion. Write a business salutation, leave a few lines, and type your name. Sign your name between the salutation and the typed name.
What are some examples of scope and delimitations?
The scope is what you are doing in the study, such as finding out how many people smoke. The delimitations are the things that might cause the answers to be wrong.

The salutation is skipped and the subject is stated immediately.
This is helpful if you do not know the receiver's name.
Common types of business letters?
The two most common business letter formats are:
block format; all of the lines of the letter are justified to the left margin.
modified block format; the lines of the letter are justified to the left margin with the exception of:
-the return address and date at the top,
-the complimentary closing name, and signature of the sender at the bottom,
which are tabbed to the center of the page or justified to the right margin.
The traditional format is less commonly used but is perfectly acceptable:
-the return address and date are indented to the center of the page or justified to the right margin,
-the inside address, the greeting, and the reference lines are justified to the left margin,
-the body of the letter is justified to the left margin with the exception of the first line of each paragraph, which is indented five spaces,
-the complimentary closing, signature, and printed name of writer are indented to the center of the page or justified to the right margin.
-notations such as "encl." or "copy" are justified to the left margin.
What are the tips in writing reservation letter?
The purpose of a reservation letter is to clearly define the time, date, number of persons, your requirements, and any other information that will specify what your reservation will encompass.
If you are enclosing a deposit or payment, you should clearly state the amount enclosed and exactly what it covers; if any other payments will be made in the future, you should state the amount, when it will be paid, and what it is for.
It should include any information for the recipient to contact you prior to your arrival or the event.
The letter should avoid any superfluous information such as how you feel about, what you believe about, what you've heard about their facilities or services unless it directly relates to your specifications.
Do you add a comma before Jr or Sr or III in a name?
No comma is necessary before "Jr.", "Sr.", and the like. No comma has ever been necessary before "III", "IV", etc. From the Chicago Manual of Style (http://ow.ly/gcv0):
But please note that within text, if you decide to use the more traditional comma before Jr. or Sr., the function of the comma is to set off these abbreviations, so an additional comma is needed after the abbreviation if the sentence continues (as in my first sentence above).
What is the difference between letter and application?
A letter is a written communication of information, any kind of information.
An application is a written request (often a form) for consideration for or inclusion in something.
