Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -You can use reference initials when contracting business letters out to a typist or another professional. Often, reference initials include both the initials of the contracted typist and the person sending the letter, but some companies only include the typist’s initials.

Detailed explanation-2: -For the Reference List: author’s surname (family name) and initials. The family name must be written in full and initials used to represent given (first) names. You only need to provide initials for the first and middle names, but do include initials for all middle names provided by the source.

Detailed explanation-3: -Reference initials are only used in this circumstance; if you typed the letter yourself, there is no need to include them. Reference initials consist of the initials of the person sending the letter, followed by the initials of the typist.

Detailed explanation-4: -Initials included at the bottom of a business letter are called typist’s initials. Some companies require them so that they know who actually typed the letter versus who composed it, in order to determine who is responsible for typos, misspellings and other mistakes that took place when the letter was produced.

Detailed explanation-5: -These reference initials refer to the person who is sending the letter and to the typist. The sender’s initials are typed in all capitals, followed by a colon or a slash, then the initials of the typist in lowercase letters: FWW:tg or FWW/tg.
