Very few of us like to pay taxes, but the concept of taxation precedes all of us. There are a number of verses and parables about tax collection, such as Luke 3:11-16: "He answered and said unto them. He that has two coats let him impart to him that has none; and he that has food, let him do likewise" (King James 2000 Bible). Using any verse or parable from the Bible, compare and contrast the modern tax system with that from biblical times.

what are the multi-step process involving the methods the Federal Reserve Bank will undertake to create the $1,200 stimulus checks?

What practical application can we expect from particle physics a century or two from now? What use can we make of quark-gluon plasmas or strange quarks? How can we harness W- and Z-bosons or the Higgs boson? Nuclear physics has given us nuclear plants and the promise of fusion power in the near future. What about particle physics? If we extend our timeframe, what promise does string theory give us? Can we make use of black holes?

Question: Evaluation of an auditor’s report.
Mrs Meyer is a director of an international firm of external auditors and works in the Auckland office. Mrs Meyer is the engagement partner on the audit of CountSave Foods Ltd, a company listed on the NZX. The audit team completed the audit for the year ended 31 March 2020 and the audit senior prepared the following draft audit report.
Auditor’s report
CountSave Foods Ltd
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements set out on pages 12 – 40, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2020, and the statement of profit or loss for the year and glanced through the cash flow statement then ended and the notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, except for the possible effect of the matter described in our report, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of CountSave Foods Ltd as at 31 March 2020, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards
Other information
The other information comprises the Director’s report as required under the NZ Companies Act In connection with our audit of the financial statements, if based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact.
Basis for opinion
Included in accounts payable is an amount of $15 million. The company did not have adequate controls to maintain records of accounts payable for goods and services received but not paid. We are unable to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to substantiate the accruals disclosed in note 28 to the financial statements. As a result, we are unable to determine whether any adjustments were required to the financial statements arising from the accounts payable and accruals not brought to account or incorrectly stated
We conducted our audit in accordance with the international Standards of Auditing

The management of Nash Instrument Company had concluded, with the concurrence of its independent auditors, that results of operations would be more fairly presented if Nash changed its method of pricing inventory from last-in, first-out (LIFO) to average-cost in 2020. Given below is the 5-year summary of income under LIFO and a schedule of what the inventories would be if stated on the average-cost method.

Prepare comparative statements for the 5 years, assuming that Nash changed its method of inventory pricing to average-cost. Indicate the effects on net income and earnings per share for the years involved. Nash Instruments started business in 2015. Assume that the number of shares outsanding is 100.
