Basically, there are 5 characteristics of an auditor whose responsibility is access the financial statement of an organisation and give a true and fair report on the state of the business. One of these characteristics is Independence and Objectivity.

When there are potential risks to the ability of the auditor to give a true and fair view of the audited books, the we say the auditor's independence is impaired.

An auditor's independence is impaired as a result of business relationship with clients. This includes any form of business association with client as manager, employee, director among others.

Based on these definitions, Smith as a director of Hometown Bank and a partner of Johnson Accounting firm risks the impairment of his independence because of the business relationship of being a Director with the client.

Answer:

B. $489,600

Explanation:

The computation of thee gross profit is shown below:

= Net sales - Net cost of goods sold

where,

Net sales = Total sales - sales return

                = $850,000 - $34,000

                = $816,000

Net cost of goods sold = Cost of goods sold - merchandise return

                                      = $340,000 - $13,600

                                      = $326,400

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= $816,000 - $326,400

= $489,600
