FARevenue Expenditure & Capital Expenditure
I hope the answer is B, but I'm not sure. I think it has to be B or D because revenue expenditure needs to be increased and that would reduce profits. But Im not sure about the capital.
Anyone know for sure?
the available answer is D that means both got decreased. But actually i want somebody to give me the answer with reasoning.
It must be D because if profit is lower then the amount owed to the owner is lesser.
