The question that a reader should ask to identify an author's purpose is "Why did the author write this text?"
Answer:
The statement that most accurately paraphrases the lines is:
A. What intelligent person does not know that riches disappear in the end?
Explanation:
When we paraphrase, we reword the ideas expressed by someone. We do not change the ideas, nor do we summarize. We say the exact same thing, but with different words. Let's take a look at what is being said here:
<em>What knowing man knows not the ghostly,
</em>
<em>Waste-like end of worldly wealth</em>
The lines above are questioning something. They are asking, maybe in rhetorical way, what intelligent man does not know about how material wealth disappears in the end. The adjective "knowing" is the same as "knowledgeable" or "intelligent". And "waste-like end" means the wealth does not really value much. It disappears ("ghostly", like everything else.
With that in mind, we can easily see that letter A is the one conveying all those ideas:
A. What intelligent person does not know that riches disappear in the end?

The answer is B: A compound sentence.

A compound sentence is a sentence that has a comma, semicolon, or a colon joining two independent clauses together to form one bigger sentence. Your sentence "When all was said and done, the day had been a success." The comma is separating the first clause; When all was said and done, and the second clause; the day had been a success.
