Question

Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

Answer 1

A, B, D ,and E statements are correct

Explanation:

The main reason for the annual report is that it is utilized by investors when they expect future income and dividend from the company as well as the risks associated with those cash flows.

The statement of income shows the difference between the income and costs of a company–that is, its profits–over a given duration. Nevertheless, any income reported comes in cash and the expenditure reported always reflects cash expenditures. There will therefore be no substantial difference for the same period between a company's profits reported and its real cash flow.

Suppose all companies follow generally accepted standards of transparency. Two years ago, both companies started operations with similar fixed assets worth $1 million, and neither company sold either or purchased any of these properties. All firms would have to report to their balance sheets the same amount of net fixed assets as the statements are sent to creditors.

Assets other than currency are expected to produce cash over time and the amount of cash they generate will be the same as the amounts on the ledger.
