aivan3 [116]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most interest rates in the economy are not set by federal reserve. For example, banks decide what interests to pay different kind of deposits and charge loans of different risks on their own (with consideration for competition and profitability).

What the Fed does is set important rates (discount rate and funds rate) that influence other interest rates in the economy.

Hope this helps, either way best of luck to him!

Serggg [28]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

The Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is an NGO that oversees the formulation of the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) does the same as well and is also an NGO.

2. Sidewalks are classified as land improvements. FASB STANDARD

3. Revenues and expenses must be categorized as operating and nonoperating. GASB STANDARD.

4. Tuition and fees must be shown net of any estimated uncollectible amounts. Both a GASB and an FASB STANDARD.

5. Expenses must be reported by program and support (management and general, and fund-raising) function classifications. FASB STANDARD.

6. Statement of cash flows must be prepared using the direct method. GASB STANDARD.

7. The purchase of a building is reported as an investing activity on the statement of cash flows. FASB STANDARD.

8. The receipt of student deposits for housing is reported as a liability, Deposits Held in Custody for Others. Both GASB and an FASB STANDARD.

9. The cash from a debt issuance is reported in the capital and related financing activities section on the statement of cash flows. GASB STANDARD.

10. The collection of historical first editions can be reported as a note rather than on the face of the financial statement provided certain conditions are met. Both a GASB and an FASB STANDARD.
