Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

By copying the message to the manager, the sender is informing the manager that Hans has not submitted his work as promised. This allows the manager to take appropriate action if necessary, such as assigning someone else to complete the missing portion or setting a new deadline. The other options are not the most likely secondary purpose of the message as they do not address the issue of Hans failing to deliver his portion of the report on time.
