The Most Conceptually Appropriate Method of Valuing a Liability Under

The most conceptually appropriate method of valuing a liability under the historical cost basis is to

A) discount the amount of expected cash outflows that are necessary to liquidate the liability using the market rate of interest at the date the liability was initially incurred.
B) discount the amount of expected cash outflows that are necessary to liquidate the liability using the market rate of interest at the date financial statements are prepared subsequent to issuance.
C) record as a liability the amount of cash or cash-equivalent value that the company would be required to pay to eliminate the liability in the ordinary course of business on the date of the financial statements.
D) record as a liability the amount of cash or cash-equivalent proceeds actually received when a liability was incurred.
