Answer:
The correct answer is $1.2 per share.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
Interest expense of Bonds = $20,000 × 4% = $800
Now, Interest expense of Bond, After tax = $800 × ( 1 - 50%) = $800 × 0.50
= $400
So, we can calculate the diluted earning by using following formula:
Diluted Earning = (Net income + Interest expense after tax) ÷ Total outstanding shares outstanding
Where, Total outstanding shares = 1,000 shares + 1,000 shares = 2,000 shares
By putting the value, we get
Diluted earning = ($2000 + $400 ) ÷ 2,000
= $1.2 per share

Sarbanes-Oxley Act was a federal law that was established by congress to sweep auditing and financial statements for public companies. The main aim for this was to improve the investor confidence by improving reliability in accounting statements. Errors in the financial statements for the public companies were to be minimized following this law especially in the wake of numerous cases of corporate crime. This law was never passed to ensure that investors only invest in companies that will be profitable, since the choice of which company to invest in is exclusively left to the investor. So the above statement is false.

Ethics can be defined as a set of rules and regulation that govern the moral behavior of someone. Ethical standards vary from one region to another since they are majorly cultural, for example; a behavior in the United States can be considered as appropriate while the same behavior in a different place can be inappropriate. Ethical standards are either right or wrong, and the actions are judged on these terms. Ethics don't measure whether a actions are loyal or disloyal, thus the statement is false.

The primary accounting standard setting body in the United States is Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). This body is charged with regulating and setting the best standard of accounting practice. The FASB usually constitutes a board whose officials are rigorously assessed. The board members have to be professionals in the field of accounting. Securities and Exchange Commission on the other hand is an independent federal agency with the authority to enforce federal security laws. Thus the statement above is false.
