Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

The matching principle requires that efforts (expenses) be matched against accomplishments (revenues). A long-term asset helps a business generate revenue, for example by producing inventory that can be sold; and since the asset is consumed in the process, then the expenses related to the asset being used up must be matched against the revenues the asset helps to generate. In other words, the asset should be written off over a period that corresponds to its useful life. That is what depreciation, amortization, and depletion accomplish.
