    Which of the following assets cannot be qualifying assets?

    • Major research and feasibility study performed in order to assess planned development of intangible asset – software.

    • Inventories that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale, for example, whiskey.

    • Self-constructed building.

    Correct Answer
    A. Major research and feasibility study performed in order to assess planned development of intangible asset – software.
    Explanation
    The major research and feasibility study performed in order to assess planned development of intangible asset - software cannot be considered a qualifying asset because it is not a tangible asset. Qualifying assets are assets that are expected to provide economic benefits to the entity for a period of time, such as inventories, software intended for resale, and self-constructed buildings. The major research and feasibility study is a preliminary step in the development of the intangible asset, but it is not the actual asset itself. Therefore, it cannot be considered a qualifying asset.

    • Assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity are all correctly stated.

    Correct Answer
    A. Assets and liabilities are both understated.
    Explanation
    When ABC Company failed to record the purchase of inventory on account at the end of 2008, it means that they did not include the value of the inventory as an asset on their balance sheet. This leads to an understatement of assets because the inventory should have been included. Additionally, since the purchase was made on account, it means that the company has a liability to pay for the inventory in the future. However, by not recording this liability, the balance sheet also understates liabilities. Therefore, the correct answer is that assets and liabilities are both understated.
