Answer should be straight A
B- multiple errors. Which is referring to the workforce and it conveys an illogical meaning. Second: would be cut is incorrect as we have a simple past (was) in the sentence. Third the phrase "expected a reported" sounds very weird compared to "expected to report"
C- not parallel and "expected a reported" phrase
D- Conveys an illogical meaning. Option D is saying that "the company's announcement" is "expecting" to report a loss when it should be the company itself. Please note the word company is in apostrophe and "expecting" cannot refer back to the apostrophe company.
E- Same illogical error as option D. Furthermore, the word "its" does not have an antecedent as the the word company is in the apostrophe
