Dear Professor Garreis,

Thank you for your reply and corrections of my English.
I will answer the questions written in the third message.

By "sportsmaker" do you mean an athletic company?
Yes, I'm interested in sportsmaker such as Nike and New Balance.
NIKE is a popular sportsmaker in Japan and I also use it.

>We do not have the word "sportsmaker" in English. We do say: sporting goods maker.
>I like New Balance products, too. 


Does your older brother have a job?
No, my older brother is a college student.
My older brother seems to be busy with job hunting.

What is your favorite holiday?
My favorite holiday is "Sea Day"
The "Sea Day" is a day to appreciate the benefits of the sea.
From this day on, we will be able to swim at many beaches.

>I can see why that is a good day for you!
>In the US, Memorial Day is the official opening of outdoor public swimming pools.
>Labor Day in September is the official day to close outdoor public pools.


The answer of home work.

1.Probably, I think this is the URL. www.fsa.go.jp/sesc/
>That is the correct URL. 
 
2.Sorry, I don't understand.
>One difference in the two countries' approaches to stocks:
It is easy in the US to sue a company in court under securities laws. Actions are rarely brought under tort or contract laws. In Japan, it is difficult to sue under securities laws. Actions are usually brought under tort or contract law.  

3.NTT's operating income for the year ended March 31, 2016 is ¥1,348,149.
>That is the correct number shown in the Income Statement. However, at the top of the page please see the words "millions of yen." This means the real number is ¥1,348,149,000,000.

4.A. Public notice of settlement of accounts is posted on the website of
McDonald's Japan.
>Thank you. 

4.B. I needed a password but financial information was on it. However, I
could not understand by my English ability. I'm sorry.
>It is ok that you saw that there is financial information on the website.  I am not sure exactly where you were. To see the ordinary financial statements, the ordinary person does not need a password. That information is available to everyone.

4.C. I have eaten a lot. I ate a cheeseburger.
>I love their cheeseburgers! 

4.D.Can see useful information on the company.
>It helps to make investment decisions, too. 

The accounting was very hard. The English was somewhat hard.

I'm waiting for your reply.

Sincerely,
Tama
