Subject: Next year's budget for marketing

Hi, all.
I'm sending you the application form for the marketing expenses budget for overseas entities.
Could you fill in the relevant sections and return it to me by Friday, the 17th?
As the recent increase in procurement costs has impacted our profits, the management decided on a uniform 10 percent cut across all entities and departments.
We know this is tough, but we kindly ask you to review and adjust your individual budgets accordingly.

Best regards.
Rie.

Rie-san.
It's honestly difficulty to accept a uniform cut, considering the overseas marketing business has been performing well. 
However, it's not fair to blame you.
I've filled in all the details for the Vancouver branch.
Please check for any omissions or errors.
Many thanks.
Jimmy.

Andrew, point taken.
It's not that simple, but I'll give it a try.
You're talking about a business trip to Sydney for three people, right?
I'll negotiate to see if we can allocate an unused portion of the advertising budgets.
Fingers crossed.
