Homework Answers
Recognizing revenue from an individual contract over multiple accounting periods is not a violation of GAAP.
For example, if payment for a long term contract was paid in full in advance, then it is recommended to record it over multiple periods as a proportion of the amount of work completed or service rendered and not the entire revenue at once.
The revenue received for which work has not been completed or service has not been rendered will be treated as a liability and will be set off over time, as and when the work is completed.
All the other options violate GAAP.
-Expensing the full cost of a vehicle with a ten-year life in the period in which it is purchased
This violates GAAP because of the principles regarding depreciation.
-Intentionally overstating earnings for a period
This not only violates GAAP, but is also plainly illegal
-Recording employee wages incurred as an asset
This also violates GAAP. Employee wages should be treated as an expense and not as an asset.
-Preparing the financial statements by using the cash basis of accounting
Violates GAAP since GAAP recommends accrual basis of accounting
-Intentionally understating earnings for a period
This also not only violates GAAP, but is also illegal
-Deducting Dividends expense on the income statement
Dividend expense is a part of P&L Appropriation Account and is therefore, not to be recorded in the income statement. Therefore, it violates GAAP.

CVS called the shots and the firm that conducted the valuation of assets of Longs went along with unsubstantiated reductions in asset values even though its...
