Answer:
d.guarantee the company will earn a profit
Explanation:
Internal controls are controls put in place by management to mitigate against identified risk. Risk basically refers to what could go wring in a process. Controls are put in place to mitigate against the risk of error or fraud and do not necessarily prevent the company from making a loss.
Companies make profit or loss based on management's decisions such as where to invest, what time to invest, introduction of a new product, management of cost of sales and operating expenses etc
Internal controls basically consist of policies and procedures that ensure that the company's asset are not misused (fraud), no misrepresentation of revenue (fraud), employees and managers comply with laws and regulations, business information is accurate ( no misrepresentation of records due to error) etc.
Hence Internal control does not consist of policies and procedures that guarantee the company will earn a profit.
The right option is d.

Answer: 5.36%
Explanation:
The after-tax cost of debt refers to the interest that is paid on debt which is then less the income tax savings as a result of the deductible interest expenses.
When calculating the after-tax cost of debt, the effective tax rate of a company should be subtracted from 1, after which the difference will be multiplied by the cost of debt. This will therefore be:
= Rate (10,8% × 1000, -960 + 20, 1000) × (1-40%)
=5.36%
Answer:
Wages would fall due to an increase in labor costs.
When the workers compensation laws were not there, the employers only had to worry about one labor cost, that of paying their employees. With the introduction of worker's compensation, they then had to get insurance for their employees as well.
This led to an increase in the costs of labor which meant an increase in production costs and a decrease in profitability. To compensate for this, the employers cut wages in order to be able to pay for both the insurance and wages and still pay the same general amounts they were paying as wages such that their production costs don't rise significantly.
