The statement is False as when the balance sheets for the two companies are submitted to investors, they are not obligated to disclose the same amount of net fixed assets.

The Property, Plant, and Equipment classification is used to categorize fixed assets on a company's balance sheet. The cost of fixed assets is decreased on the balance sheet by depreciating them over the course of their useful lives in order to account for wear and tear. Both firms started off with $1 million worth of identical fixed assets when they first opened their doors two years ago, and neither one has sold or added any new ones. So, they are not supposed to report the same amount of fixed assets to investors since there is an absence of asset purchases.

Both current assets and fixed assets are listed on the balance sheet, with current assets intended for use immediately or for cash conversion and fixed assets for longer-term usage (more than one year).

Answer:

The correct answer is: <u>Is it balanced?</u>

Explanation:

This question based on ethics would be the most appropriate to assess these situations.

Ethical issues seek to solve conflicting problems and dilemmas.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

$20 loss

Explanation:

Karen Smith bought a coca-cola stock for $475 in March 31, 20X1
