答案解析:财务报表与税单上的折旧差异造成了递延所得税负债(DTL),DTL在数值上等于折旧之差再乘以税率。DTL = ( $ 3 000 - $ 2 100 ) ×0.35 = $ 315,税单上因为多计了折旧而少计了利润,所以应该增加递延所得税负债。所得税费用(income tax expense)=应纳所得税(taxes payable)+ (△DTL - △DTA)。

3、Tamlorn Mager, CFA, is an analyst at Pyallup Portfolio Management. CFA Institute recently notified Mager that his CFA Institute membership was suspended for a year because he violated the CFA Code of Ethics. A hearing panel also came to the same conclusion. Mager subsequently notified CFA Institute he does not accept the sanction, or the hearing panel’s conclusion. Which of the following actions by Mager is most consistent with the CFA Institute Professional Conduct Program?【单选题】
A.Presenting himself to the public as a CFA charterholder
B.Providing evidence for his position to an outside arbitration panel
C.Using his CFA designation upon expiration of the suspension period
正确答案:C
答案解析:“Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct”, CFA Institute
2013 Modular Level I, Vol. 1, Reading 1, Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct CFA Institute Professional Conduct Program
Study Session 1-1-a
Describe the structure of the CFA Institute Professional Conduct Program and the disciplinary review process for the enforcement of the Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct.
Study Session 1-2-c
Recommend practices and procedures designed to prevent violations of the Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct
C is correct because the Designated Officer may impose a summary suspension on a member or candidate, which may be rejected or accepted by the member or candidate. If the member or candidate does not accept the proposed sanction, the matter is referred to a hearing panel composed of DRC members and CFA Institute member volunteers affiliated with the DRC. In this case, the hearing panel also affirmed the suspension decision by the Designated Officer, and therefore, the member loses the right to use his designation for a one-year period. Upon expiration of the suspension period, the analyst would be able to use his CFA designation.

According to the Standards of Practice Handbook, did Piedmont violate any CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct?【单选题】

It was created by Piedmont prior to his employment with Branch. The model was not created for Branch in the course of his employment, but was adopted by Branch.

Describe the types of securities issued by municipalities in the United States and distinguish between tax-backed debt and revenue bonds.
Some municipal bonds include a nonbinding pledge of additional tax revenue to make up any shortfalls; however legislative approval is required for the additional appropriation. These are known as moral obligation bonds. They are a form of general obligation debt, but most general obligation debt does not include such a pledge. In contrast, a prerefunded bond is backed by a trust of riskless securities that provide cash flows sufficient to pay the interest and principal payments of the bond.
