问一道题:NO.PZ2018062004000026

问题如下:

Molly is studying financial statement analysis, she says “accrued expense is an asset, which is reported when the cash has not been paid but an expense is recognized.” Is she correct?

选项:

A.

correct.

B.

incorrect, it describes a prepaid expense, not an accrued expense.

C.

incorrect, as accrued expense is reported as a liability in the balance sheet.

解释:

C is correct. Accrued expense is when the firm owes cash for expenses incurred. It increases the expense in balance sheet and increases accrued expense as a liability in the balance sheet.

老师 为什么B不对

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


根据Molly的描述:在费用已经确认但是现金还没支付的时候就报告的一种资产。有两个信息点:

1 现金的支付是滞后的,这是accured expense,比如日常生活中的水费,是先用水,然后再收费。而B选项说是prepaid expense,也就是支付是提前的而不是滞后的,类似于租金,要提前付才能享受继续租住的权利。所以B不对。

2 Molly说这种expense是资产,这是错误的,因为accrued expense是先使用后付费,未来会带来现金流的支出,属于一种负债,所以选C。
