View answer resolution

【Answer to question 1】B

【analysis】

B is correct. The direct method cash flow statement presents specific operating cash flows by source and use.

A is incorrect because the indirect method starts with net income and presents clearly the relationship between net income and operating cash flows.

C is incorrect because the indirect method cash flow statement adjusts for non-cash items, not the direct method

【Answer to question 2】C

【analysis】

C is correct. Unrealized holding gains foreign currency translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income.

A is incorrect. This calculation incorrectly includes the gain on securities held for trading. These gains are recognized in net income, not other comprehensive income: $100,000 + $500,000 = $600,000.

B is incorrect. This calculation incorrectly excludes the foreign currency translation adjustment and fails to include the gains on securities held for trading. These gains are recognized in net income, not other comprehensive income.

成功=时间+方法，自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才，高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩，其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信，每天都在勤奋练习，即使是一点点的进步，大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。
