Never list an enclosure where?

• A. On the right margin
• B. Flush with the left margin two lines below the last paragraph
• C. At the top of the page
• D. In the footer

Answer: (B)

In formal correspondence, the list of enclosures belongs in a distinct section at the end of the document, clearly separated from the main body so readers can quickly see what’s included. Listing enclosures flush with the left margin two lines below the last paragraph places them inside the flow of the main text, where they can be missed or read as part of the paragraph. That disrupts the document’s structure and makes the enclosures harder to notice. Because of that, this location is avoided. Enclosures are typically shown in a dedicated enclosure block at the bottom of the page (or on a separate page) and clearly labeled, while other placements like the top of the page, the right margin, or the footer don’t follow the standard format for enclosure listings and can be confusing.
