问题如下:
All else being equal and ignoring tax effects, compared with using
the straight-line method of depreciation, the use of an accelerated method of
depreciation in the early years of an asset's life would most likely result in
a decrease in the firm's:
选项:
A.cash flow from operations.
B.asset turnover ratio.
shareholders' equity.
解释:
An accelerated
method of deprecation produces greater expenses in the early years and lowers
net income, which in turn lowers the retained earnings resulting in a decrease
in shareholders' equity.
因为asset turnover ratio=income/asset,因为accelerated method下折旧费是递减的,所以income是递增的,所以asset turnover ratio是递增的,这么理解对吗?
