Dear Prof. Stiner,

Thank you for your reply and your corrections of my English.

 

Though these are two of last week's questions, No. 4 and No. 6, I want to try again to answer them.

> > > 4. The value of short-term investments is cash equivalent, valuation basis.

> > I meant for you to tell me the value in US dollars.  There's a trick!

> > Make sure you note "the millions" mentioned at the top of the statement.

Dell Computers' short-term investments are $323,000,000 in January 28 2000.

Correct!

> > > 6. The value of Accounts payable is acquisition.

> > Accounts payable is measured by the amount due as shown on the invoice.

> > But again I wanted a number.

For example, Nike's accounts payable is $543,800,000 (five hundred forty-three million eight hundred thousand dollars). 

Check the statement again to see how I got that number.

I saw Nike's accounts payable again. It is $543,800,000 in 2000.

Correct!
