Answer:
a. A nonresident alien can be an S corporation shareholder. (However, generally, we can't see non resident aliens owning shares, but it is not illegal.)
c. An S corporation can have more than 100 shareholders, since families are treated as a single shareholder.
Explanation:
A nonresident alien is a person who is not a U.S. citizen and does not pass the green card or substantial presence tests used to determine tax status and citizenship. Foreign Students are a good example for this.
these non residents usually do not hold ownership in corporations.
The term "S corporation" means a "small business corporation".
S corporations limit is 100 members, however, since the family members are treated as "individual one person", the number 100 could change in the practical scenario.
The option d is obviously wrong!
Option b is incorrect as well. Corporations and Partnerships can not own stake in S corporations.

Explanation:
"An auditor is a watchdog and not a blood hound". The purpose of conducting an audit is to provide 'reasonable assurance" and not 'absolute assurance' to the management of an entity and users of financial statements.
An auditor cannot be held liable for any misstatement or fraud if he proves that he did his work diligently, and acted bona fide, and as per the evidence available to him, arrived at such an opinion.
But, in cases wherein an auditor has acted grossly negligent or colluded with management or window dressing of accounts, such auditor would be held personally liable and accountable. For e.g Enron case.
