    Stan,

    That is why I have given up on the accounting board, 95% of the questions are people asking for homework or test questions to be done for them. :mad: It's frustrating because I want to contribute something to the site and this is my area of expertise (and my profession). Trust me in comparison this board is fine.

    The "test questions" are so easy to spot and they occur at predicatable times of the years. The worst part is, they have been usually answered last yesr, the year before over and over again.

    For now, we seem to have fun with them.

    The question is a freebie on the exam. Process of elimination works.

    To give the benefit of the doubt, there could be a language barrier.

    So let's add E) a double Insulated connection and F) a Code violation.

    Now they have to pick two. Makes it harder.

    Now lets add "G" a fine for the code violation not corrected. "H" Your contractors license pulled. "I" Your customer sued you for work not being done. "J" lawyers costs and bank account gone. "K"House re financed to pay bills "L" can't pay for job insurance to keep working elsewhere. "M" kids are hungry. "P" Wife is about to leave. "Q" lost suit because your truck was repoed (broke )and missed the court hearing. "R" Wife and kids left you. "S" The bank took the house. "T" now on the street and have no money. So us old people learned how?? Own our own hard work.
