CA5.4 (LO 2) Ethics (Presentation of Property, Plant, and Equipment) Carol Keene, corpo- rate comptroller for Dumaine Industries, is trying to decide how to present "Property, plant, and equip ment" in the balance sheet. She realizes that the statement of cash flows will show that the company made a significant investment in purchasing new equipment this year, but overall she knows the com pany's plant assets are rather old. She feels that she can disclose one figure titled "Property, plant, and equipment, net of depreciation," and the result will be a low figure. However, it will not disclose the age of the assets. If she chooses to show the cost less accumulated depreciation, the age of the assets will be apparent. She proposes the following. $10,000,000 Property, plant, and equipment, net of depreciatica rather than Property, plant, and equipment Less: Accumulated depreciaslon Net book value $50,000,000 40,000,000 $10,000,000 Instructions Answer the following questions. a.
