| mbowa | What is SFAS-95 in full? |
| ascruggs92 | mbowa, I'm in a different boat that most people since I majored in accounting in college and I just remember this stuff from classes. However, I would say not to worry about what an individual rule like that says. Learn the concepts, then when you have a question like this about a specific rule in the book you won't need to know what it says because you will know that notes payable to suppliers is the definition of accounts payable which are classified as operating cash flows, notes payable for plant assets is classified as debt (financing) and so on. |
