1. How many periods should be shown in a complete set of financial statements? Is there a difference between the financial statements (as in one financial statement might require a different number of periods than a different financial statement).
2. What is the complete definition for determining whether an asset or liability should be classified as current or non-current (time period and exception)? Think back to Principles I or Intermediate I.
3. What is the difference in appearance/approach for the indirect method and the direct method of creating a cash flow statement? What sections of the cash flow statement differ between the two methods?
4. In ASC 230-10-50, it states information about all investing and financing activities of an entity during a period that affect recognized assets or liabilities but that do not result in cash receipts or cash payments in the period shall be disclosed. Those disclosures may be either narrative or summarized in a schedule, and they shall clearly relate the cash and noncash aspects of transactions involving similar items. Give at least 2 examples of non-cash events that may need to be disclosed on the cash flow statement.
