Solution
Accountants suggest that assets should always be valued at their market value. F
Accountants suggest that assets should always be valued at their market value is a false
statement .
Accountants have to grapple with the problem of revaluing the Assets at their market values
while for other Assets for which market values are not available it requires special valuation
skills from the accountant's side therefore it becomes a cumbersome exercise for the accountant
to revalue the assets at the fair rice and quite difficult. Accountants should choose the
conservatism principle in which they report the asset at the lower value of the book value and
the fair market value. The principle is to report the Asset at lower of the cost or market
value(LCM) therefore it’s not always necessary that the accountants report the assets at their
market value they can also report the asset at their book value also depending on whether the
book value or the market value for the Asset is lower. Therefore Accountants need not require
that assets should always be valued at their market value. The statement is False.
