b. Compare the nature of Pepsi’s history, business sectors, and reportable segments to those of CocaCola’s history?
c. What is the purpose of the Form Def 14A? What does “Def” stand for? What types of information does a proxy contain?
d. Who is the auditor for Pepsico? Who is the auditor for CocaCola? What were the audit fees as a percentage of (1) total revenue, and (2) total assets? Audit fees were not always publicly disclosed. In fact, such disclosure became mandatory only since the year 2000 in the United States. Why is public disclosure of audit and other fees paid to the audit firm important?
