Answer:

B. $12,000 is a sunk cost

Explanation:

By considering the given information, the cost that is correct is a sunk cost for $12,000

The sunk cost is the cost already incurred and will not be retrieved in the future. Plus, it's also termed a past cost.  

It is a useless cost and it can be avoided also.  

It is that cost that is not considered at the time of decisions making.

So, option B is correct

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The answer is: B) An inflow of $12,000

Explanation:

Croft Company's cash flow should include the total cash inflow (the company received money) of $12,000. Even if the company bought the land the day before, paying the $10,000 yesterday, the cash flows are independent one from another. It should have recorded the outflow of $10,000 "yesterday".

Which of the following BEST describes a company's proper liquidity management?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A. Liquidity management is a balancing act, managers try to find liquidity levels that are neither too high not too low.

Explanation:

Maintaining proper liquidity is an important financial objective of management. Proper liquidity management demands that an entity should be able to meet his short term financial obligation and making sure that liquid assets of the entity are not idle. In order to achieve this, the best way to go is to maintain a level that is neither too high and not too low. Not too high means the entity is not holding too much cash or liquid assets than it currently need to meet its short term financial obligation.

For example, not keeping too much cash in current account but investing them in interest-earning investment assets.

Not too low means the cash or liquid assets held by an entity should not less than the amount needed to meet its short term financial obligation. For example, making sure that the entity has enough cash or readily convertible liquid assets that can be used to pay vendors, rent, interest and meet other short term financial obligation.

Option B is false because keeping too much does not help to maximize short term earnings which is a feature of proper liquidity management. Option C is wrong because there is no guideline to support that deferring coupon payment won`t attract payment and this does not connote proper liquidity management.

Option D is obviously false and does not describe proper liquidity management.
