71) B

Construction interest capitalized as part of fixed assets is not reported as cash flow from operations (CFO)

but rather as a cash flow from investing (CFI). For the capitalizing firm, Firm A, CFO will be overstated and

CFI is understated. This means that for the expensing firm, Firm B, CFO will be lower and CFI will be

higher. The differences are permanent. Overall cash flow is not affected.
