选项：
A.Adjustments should not be made to the balance sheet B.The size of any cost of capital adjustment ranges from ?1% to +1% C.Adjustments to the capital expenditures line can be direct or risk adjusted解释：
C is correct because "an adjustment can be a direct impact, e.g. an assessment of an environmental litigation fine being US$400m (£288m), or the risk adjusted impact of a carbon tax might be forecast to be an absolute dollar amount per year in a model."
A is incorrect because "adjustments can be made directly to the balance sheet or capital expense lines. A practitioner may believe that ESG factors will lead a company to decrease or increase its future capital expenditure. A forecast ESG impairment event, e.g. a sub-standard factory, may result in an impairment charge being made to bring the company’s book value down."
B is incorrect because "the sizing of the adjustment is typically at the discretion of the analyst, although there may be guidelines the analyst utilizes."
