Solution
A is correct.

The clean surplus relation states:
Bt=Bt−1+Et−DtB_t = B_{t-1} + E_t - D_t

where BB is book value, EE is earnings (net income), and DD is dividends. This means all changes in book value other than ownership transactions flow through the income statement; there are no 'dirty surplus' items that bypass income. The clean surplus relation requires that all changes in equity (other than transactions with owners like dividends) are captured in net income.

FSA, CFA · Founder

FreeFellow was built by Jeffrey Ting, a credentialed actuary and CFA charterholder who has passed thirteen of the hardest exams in finance, all on his first attempt. He paid four-figure prep fees along the way.

So he started writing his own questions, then lessons, then mock exams, until it grew into a full prep platform covering 40 exams with more than 45,000 original practice questions. FreeFellow LLC is a CFA Institute Prep Provider. Its CFA® exam materials are validated by CFA Institute for substantial curriculum coverage and updated annually.

01
Cost shouldn't decide who gets in.

A CFA charter, a CPA license, an actuarial credential. Each opens a real career, but prep fees add to the cost of getting there. FreeFellow keeps its original question bank and written lessons free so you can study even if a paid course is out of reach.

02
Free should mean free.

The original question bank, the worked solutions, the topic lessons, mixed practice, and your readiness score stay free, forever. Full access needs a free account, and practice usage limits apply.
