AA tangible asset and an intangible asset
BTwo financial assets in the same class with similar risk characteristics
CTwo parcels of vacant land in similar markets
DTwo tangible assets in the SAME class with similar risk characteristics
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. A tangible asset and an intangible asset
The standard explicitly disallows treating a tangible and an intangible asset as similar; also a financial and non-financial asset; tangibles in different classes; intangibles in different classes; financial assets in different classes; and assets in the same class with significantly different risk characteristics. Same-class assets with similar risk profiles are allowed.
