| Farina | ...and because the direct method deiscloses a lot of data most companies would rather keep private, the indirect method is used almost universally. |
| jainrajeshv | Why D is wrong? |
| surjoy | Because, if your Cash Flows are presented in Direct method, you have to disclose Indirect method as a supplement. |
| YOUCANDOIT | isnt that the other way around surjoy? please correct me if i'm wrong though |
| majesty | YOUCANDOIT, surjoy is correct. Both methods are permitted under IFRS and U.S. GAAP. Both IASB and FASB encourage Direct Method (and require to provide Indirect Method in supplement). That's why few companies present the Direct Method. |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
