Rocky Point Brewery (RPB) filed an initial public offering in January 2018. RPB engaged Olsen & Alain, CPAs, (O&A) in 2015 to keep the books and prepare monthly and annual financial statements (while the company was privately held), and terminated those services in December 2018. Under SEC and PCAOB rules, could RPB engage O&A to be their auditors now that it is a public company? a. Yes, because the prohibited nonaudit services were performed before the period of professional engagement. b. Yes, but only if O&A rescinds any indemnification language existing in their nonaudit engagement letters. c. No, because the prohibited nonaudit services were performed during the period covered by the financial statements. d. No, but only if the fees O&A received from these engagements exceeded five percent of the firm's annual revenues.

No, because the prohibited non-audit services were performed during the period covered by the financial statements.

Explanation:

The aim of the Securities and Exchange Commission is to protect the investors and also maintain a fair, and an efficient market.

We should note that Under SEC and PCAOB rules, RPB cannot engage O&A to be their auditors now that it is a public company because the prohibited non-audit services were performed during the period covered by the financial statements.

the correct answer would be b, when, queen, calder hall and london.

explanation:

we always capitalize words when a paragraph or sentence is starting, when an important name is used, when a place is being written, or simply when a noun is used, etc. so in this sentence, sentence is starting from 'when', so it will be written in capital letters. secondly, queen is considered to be an important person, so it will also be written in capital letter. next, the name of the town is mentioned, i-e calder hall, which will also be written in capital letters. in the last,   city name is being used, 'london', which will also be written in capital letters. so option b is the most appropriate one.
