The company accepts engagements related to internal control design and evaluation, as well as enterprise risk management plans. A customer can purchase the two services independently of one another.

One member of ABC's management team assigns at least one consultant to work with the customer until the engagement is complete. Consultants can be assigned to multiple engagements simultaneously, but every consultant must always be working on at least one engagement. Each client may have only one contract with ABC at a time.In a REA model of the case, the cardinalities between the "assign employees" event and the agent "employees" would be:

• A)Assign employees (0,*) --- (1,1)Employees
• B)Assign employees (0,*) --- (1,*)Employees
