Your answer: C was correct! Management’s perspective on the company’s results is provided in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis supplement to the financial statements. Financial statement notes (footnotes) provide information about matters such as the company’s accounting methods and assumptions, contingencies, and acquisitions and disposals. Footnotes to the financial statements are audited. $50 BUCKS SAYS THIS Q IS ON TH EXAM FOOTNOTES ARE AUDITED, M, D, and A ARE NOT AUDITED, BUT ARE REQUIRED BY THE SEC
