In April 2010, the PCAOB issued a disciplinary order instituting disciplinary proceedings, making findings, and imposing sanctions in the case of Robert T. Taylor, CPA (both the firm and the individual auditor). The order can be found in PCAOB Release No. 105–2010–006 at www.pcaobus.org. (Review the PCAOB Web site, access this release, and answer the following questions.)
A) The order in the case of Robert T. Taylor recognizes that PCAOB standards require that an auditor exercise due professional care, exercise professional skepticism, and obtain sufficient evidence on which to base an opinion on the financial statements. Describe instances in which the respondents in the order did not adhere to these requirements.
B) Why is adhering to these professional requirements important for audit quality?
Respond to the following scenario with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. Be substantive and clear, and use research to reinforce your ideas.
Mary Francis has just returned to her office after attending preliminary discussions with investment bankers. Her last meeting regarding the intended capital structure of Apix went well, and she calls you into her office to discuss the next steps.
“We will need to determine the required return for our intended project so that we have a decision criteria defined for the project,” she says.“Do you have the information I need to describe capital structure and to calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)?” you ask.“I do,” she smiles. “We can determine the target WACC for Apix Printing Inc., given these assumptions,” she says as she hands you a piece of paper that says the following:
Weights of 40% debt and 60% common equity (no preferred equity)
A 35% tax rate
Cost of debt is 8%
Beta of the company is 1.5
Risk-free rate is 2%
Return on the market is 11%
“Great,” you say. “Thanks.”“Be sure to indicate how these costs of capital might be used to determine the feasibility of the capital project,” Mary says. “I want your recommendation about which is more appropriate to apply to project evaluation, too. Let me know what you think.”“One more thing,” she says as she stands up to signal the end of the meeting. “You did a good job with the explanations that you provided Luke the other day. Would you have time to define marginal cost of capital for me so I can include it in my discussions with investors? You seem to have a knack for making things accessible to nonfinancial folks.”“No problem,” you say. “I’m glad my explanations are so useful!”For this assignment, complete the following:
Describe capital structure.
Determine the WACC given the above assumptions.
Indicate how these might be useful to determine the feasibility of the capital project.
Recommend which is more appropriate to apply to project evaluation.
Define marginal cost of capital.

Yasmin:
If a person passes away without leaving a valid will, the distribution of property is regulated by probate laws. “Each individual state establishes laws governing wills and estates known as probate laws.” Probate laws differ state to state.
Probate laws are supposed to achieve three goals:
Gather, preserve, and account for all of the decedent’s property
Administer an orderly and fair settlement for all debts
Discover and implement the decedent’s intent for the remaining property held at death
In Vermont, if you don’t leave a will, your property/estate is distributed to your closest biological relatives no matter what your relationship is with them. The state will not give your property/estate to a friend unless you leave a will that says to.
