| kodali | doesn't B imply C |
| johasan | As for B, its addresses the current assets and not long term assets. |
| moneyguy | I thought so, too, kodali. Johasan is right. We have to read these questions carefully! |
| Inaganti6 | it's generally a case of what's what's MORE right. in this case long term assets are the issue not current assets and current assets are not subject to depreciation |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
