isn’t it the answer should be B ?December 4, 2015 at 12:35 pm #287514Didn’t you ask me earlier today about the direct method for the preparation of a statement of cash flows?
Is that not an example of flexibility that is allowed by a standard?
Do you still want to challenge the validity of answer “c”?
December 4, 2015 at 12:51 pm #287516I see, I thought creative accounting normally means try to ‘hide’ something . I tend to link that to innovative thinking.
Thanks again Mike.
I only found your web few weeks ago, I finished your lecture series but not the notes yet. Which I don’t think I have enough time now to go into very details.
Anyway, this web going to help me sail thru other papers next year, and hopefully F7 next week.
I am self studying normally and failed once, until I found your web I see the light
