Answer- Transaction A only?”This question makes no sense!
How can it ask for “two of the following transaction”
In addition, given that there are only 2 transactions – A and B – then the answer must be option B because that’s the only option where “two of the following transaction” are identified as possible disclosures
Are you making up these exercises … because that is a poor question!
In your second question, only option B makes any sense at all!
I can’t conceive of a situation where negligence can be intentional – that goes against the meaning of the word
And ignorance of the harm caused is one of the classic examples of negligence, so how can it possibly be a defence?
I repeat, “are you making up these exercises … because that is another poor question!”
