For a handout intended for credit, what should you include?

• A. The weather on the day it was created.
• B. The printer's serial number.
• C. The author's name and date.
• D. The page margins.

Answer: (C)

When a handout is created for credit, who made it and when it was produced are the most important details. Including the author's name identifies responsible for the content, and the date shows when the handout was created, which helps with version control and proper citation. This makes it clear who to credit and whether the material might be out of date, guiding any needed updates. Details like the weather on the day it was created or the printer's serial number don’t establish authorship or version, and margins are just formatting choices that affect layout, not attribution. So, listing the author and date best supports proper credit.
