    @oblio Yes and yes, bad debt expense is treated just a normal expense is. Think of it this way, in the prior year the organization recorded that revenue when they recorded the receivable, so this year since it isn't collectible we are going to record an expense.

    @CesarCPA2012 Most of the time on the calculations simulations, the offer a drop down box for clicking on the answer you want but on calculations where you have to type it in, I would assume it needs to be 100% correct for the computer to grade it correctly. Your guess is as good as mine though.

    @cpa066729 Look at the wording of those answers closely. The sale of PP&E goes into Investing activities, but the GAIN from that sale (Cash – Basis in PP&E) is considered an operating activity.

    100 Cash Sale

    80 Basis

    20 Gain

    So 80 is investing activity, and 20 is operating activity. Make sense?

    @oblio Neither, it is fixed asset. If you have to categorize it into one of those two, I would lean towards non-current.

    I think construction in progress can be either a current asset or a noncurrent asset depending on turnover the contracts. This is based on my intuition more than anything.

    I spoke to an ancient wise man who sent me on a mushroom induced journey through an ancient forest to find the key to passing the CPA exam. A talking spider monkey told me to throw the last of my drinking water in the dirt to find what I was looking for. So I followed his instructions and the following message appeared in the soil:

    "Do 5000 multiple choice questions for each section"

    Susan K when they use the wording revaluation method they are implying that it is company using IFRS. In IFRS they post gains from evaluating goodwill to OCI not on the IS.
