Discussion Questions
2.从一个使用者的角度来看,如果要对一个处于通货膨胀,货币贬值国家的公司的历史成本报表进行分析,其固有的问题是什么?
答: Historical-based financial statements may be misleading during periods of significant inflation. Many resources may have been acquired in periods when the purchasing power of the monetary unit was much higher. These expenses then typically are deducted from revenues that reflect current purchasing power. The resulting income number is unintelligible. Another problem for statement readers is that the value of assets recorded at their historical acquisition cost is typically understated as a result of inflation. Understated asset values produce understated expenses and overstated earnings.
Financial trends are also difficult to interpret, as trend statistics generally include monetary units of different purchasing power. A positive trend in sales may be due to price changes, not real increases in sales.
3.什么是一般物价指数?对于报表读者来说,这个指数有什么用处?
答: A price index is a cost ratio, that is, the ratio of a representative “basket” of goods and services consumed by an average family, compared to the price of that same basket in a benchmark (“base”) year. The price index is invaluable in enabling a statement reader to translate sums of money paid in the past to their current purchasing power equivalents.
4.下面是美国一个著名的国会议员的评论。请解释你为什么同意或不同意他的观点。(评论内容省略了)
答: The Congressman is wrong. The object of inflation accounting is to clarify the distinction between capital and income, not to minimize corporate taxes. Inflation accounting shows how much money the company can pay in expenses, taxes, and dividends, while keeping enough resources to maintain its capital.

Discussion Questions

6.简要描述历史成本——不变购买力模式和现行成本模式的性质。它们在哪些方面是相似的?在哪些方面是不同的?
答: The historical cost-constant dollar model measures the impact of general price level changes on a firm's reported performance and financial position. The current cost model examines the impact of specific price changes on enterprise income and wealth.
The two measurement frameworks are similar in that both attempt to clarify the distinction between capital and income. They differ in reporting objectives. Whereas the historical cost/constant dollar model attempts to preserve the general purchasing power of a firm's original money capital, the current cost model attempts to preserve an entity's physical capital or productive capacity.

2:历史为基础的财务报表可能会误导期间的严重的通货膨胀。许多资源可能已被收购时期的购买力货币单位要高得多。然后这些费用通常是从收入中扣除,以反映当前的购买力。由此获得的收入数字是不知所云。另一个问题的声明读者的是,资产价值的记录,他们的历史购置成本通常是低估了由于通货膨胀。低估资产价值低估了生产费用和夸大收益。
金融趋势也难以解释,因为趋势的统计数字一般包括货币单位的不同购买力。一个积极的趋势,销售可能是由于价格变化,而不是真正的销量增加。
3:价格指数是一个成本比率,也就是比一个有代表性的“菜篮子”商品和服务消费平均每个家庭相比,价格是同一个篮子里在一个基准( “基地” )一年。价格指数是非常宝贵的,使读者一份声明中把款项支付在过去他们目前的购买力等值。
4:该议员是错误的。对象的通货膨胀会计是明确的区分资本和收入,而不是减少公司税。通货膨胀会计表明了多少钱,公司可以支付的费用,税金,和分红,同时保持足够的资源来维持其资本。
6:历史成本模式不变美元措施的影响,物价总水平变动对公司的业绩报告和财务状况。目前的成本模型研究了影响,具体价格变动对企业收入和财富。
这两个测量框架相似都试图澄清区分资本和收入。他们在报告不同的目标。鉴于历史成本/不变美元模型试图维护的一般购买力,公司的原始资金资本,目前的成本模式试图保持一种实体的有形资本或生产能力。
