LOS d: Predict the impact on financial statements and ratios, given a change in accounting rules, methods, or assumptions.

Due to a change in accounting standards, TRK Construction’s QSPE must now be consolidated. Assume the current ratio before consolidation is 1.10. Consolidation will most likely result in which of the following:

A)
a decrease in the current ratio.

B)
an increase in the current ratio.

C)
no change in the current ratio.

The correct treatment for consolidation of the QSPE would be an increase in assets and in liabilities by the same amount. If the current ratio is greater than one, consolidation would decrease the current ratio.
