Answer:
- b. Financial scandals and corporate fraud.
- b. By legally requiring companies to certify the truth of their statements to investors.
- d. The cost and difficulties of compliance.
Explanation:
After the U.S. was rocked by the financial scandals and corporate fraud of companies like Enron and WorldCom, the U.S. Congress enacted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to mitigate the risk of such ever occurring again.
The Act involves making the management personally liable for the accuracy of the statements by legally requiring companies to certify the truth in their statements to their investors.
While this seems easy enough, it requires a lot of information gathering which has left companies paying millions to comply.
Answer:
b. $2,000
Explanation:
The computation of the interest amount is shown below:
= Sale value of goods × rate of interest × (number of months ÷ total number of months in a year)
= $40,000 × 10% × (6 months ÷ 12 months)
= $2,000
The 6 months is calculated from June 30 to December 31.
So, the b option is correct and rest options are wrong.
The correct answer is "to survey <span>every 30th employee entering each mall entrance for one week".
