Solution

The conclusion is correct. According to the assumptions, furniture (which includes desks) does not need to go through the Purchasing Department. However, the assumption also states that only orders going through the Purchasing Department require signed approval. Therefore, since desks do not go through the Purchasing Department, they do not require signed approval. Hence, the conclusion that signed approval must be obtained for ordering desks is incorrect.
