Bookkeeping
A bookkeeping mistake
a) may be be corrected when discovered b) includes adding players to the scorebook during game c) must be corrected before the halftime intermission d) may be corrected if recognized during the first dead ball following the mistake It isn't B or C. I think they left of some important information in a) like "before the R approves the score". Sure you "may" correct it in D .. but you don't have to:rolleyes: |
Isn't a bookkeeping mistake something like the number of personal fouls on a player? The running score? Not an incorrect number of a player. So I believe the answer would be (a) for bookkeeping mistakes.

'd' limits the timeframe to only the first dead ball, that's the important distinction in that choice, not the word "may". |

That said, A is a better answers, and that's what we're supposed to select during a multiple choice test. |

We all know about when jurisdiction starts and stops. To mention that as part of the question just overly complicates what is otherwise a simple question. Likewise on (d), that language should tell you it is referring to correctable errors and not bookkeeping mistakes. |
Quote:
Can it be corrected if it's recognized during the first dead ball? Yes, so this answer is true. Can it also be corrected if it's recognized after the first dead ball? Also yes -- so A is "truer." |

Relatively few people can write clear multiple choice questions. Far more people think they can. This question is not well written--quality test questions measure knowledge, not test taking skills. But as Bob said, despite that, there is a best answer.
