I am having a confusion on the schweser basis to calculate the average book value for AAR (LOS 47). It seems that they did not consider net income when they calculate the average book value. Can anybody confirm the correct methodology ?
“they did not consider net income when they calculate the average book value” the book value doesn’t relate to the net value - it’s the cost of an asset minus accumulated depreciation AAR = AverageNetIncome / AverageBookValue
