I'd have to go with B) False on this one. Accruing the estimated amount sounds like the more efficient and organized approach. Plus, it'll keep the bean counters happy!

B) False, all the way! I mean, who wants to deal with the hassle of tracking down every single salvage and subrogation payment? Accruing the estimated amount is the way to go, like a boss!

Ah, the age-old question of 'to accrue or not to accrue?' I'll have to go with B) False on this one. It's better to be proactive than reactive, especially in the insurance world.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'd go with B) False, as it makes more sense to accrue the estimated amount of salvage and subrogation rather than waiting for the actual receipt.

But wouldn't waiting for the actual receipt provide a more accurate representation of the company's finances?

I agree with you, it does make sense to accrue the estimated amount to reflect the true financial position.
