单选题 Selected data from Douglas Company's balance sheet at the end of the year follows:
Investment in Corrision Company, at fair value

Retained earnings
Accumulated other comprehensive income
$150000
$86000
$550000
$175000
$893000
$46000
The investment in Corrision Company had an original cost of $120000. Assuming the investment in Corrision is classified as available-for-sale, Douglas Company's total owners' equity at year-end is closest to:
  • A. $1618000
  • B. $1664000
  • C. $1714000
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析] 所有者权益总额=普通股+优先股+未分配盈余+累积其他综合收益=550000+175000+893000+46000=1664000(美元)
单选题 Assume U.S. GAAP applies unless otherwise noted. At the end of the year, a company sold equipment for $30000 cash. The company paid $110000 for the equipment several years ago and had recorded accumulated depreciation of $70000 at the time of its sale. All else equal, the equipment sale will result in the company's cash flow from:
  • A. investing activities increasing by $30000.
  • B. investing activities decreasing by $30000.
  • C. operating activities being $10000 less than net income.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] 在出售设备时,其账面价值为110000-70000=40000(美元),该公司的销售所得为30000美元。因此,应当在损益表中记录的亏损金额为40000-30000=10000(美元)。上述亏损使净收益相应下降,但它为非现金金额,从而被加回到营业现金流的净收益的计算中。相应地,营业现金流将高于净收益,而不是低于后者。销售设备的总金额(30000美元)属于基于交易互动产生的现金流,从而应当体现在投资现金流中。综上所述,本题的正确选项应为A。
