Which of the following is an example of a record kept by a business?

  1. Blind memoranda

  2. Court docket

  3. Ledger

  4. Summons

The correct answer is: Ledger

Ledgers are important records kept by businesses as they detailed financial transactions and accounts. They are used to track and record all incoming and outgoing transactions in a systematic and organized manner. Blind memorandas, court dockets, and summons are not examples of records kept by businesses. Blind memorandas can refer to notes or reminders that have no identifying information and are not tied to a specific business. Court dockets are schedules or lists of cases that will be heard by a court. Summons are legal documents issued by a court to require someone to appear in court or to respond to a legal complaint. While these documents may be used by businesses or involved in business related matters, they are not records kept by businesses themselves.
