Jonathan comes to you with his idea. He believes that he would be equally happy with either option, but that starting his own brewery is the right choice in light of its profitability. Ignoring what might happen beyond the first year, do you agree with him? Why or why not?

it seems he wants to take greater risk for $22000 less, this would seem to be a no brainer, like you don't need an accountant to answer this question but you cannot ignore when making a decision like this what might happen in subsequent years. Do I agree with him that a fool and his money are soon parted, yes!

if this is the standard of questions get a new course, it can only get harder from here
