问题如下：
PZ’s financial statements adhere to generally accepted accounting principles, PZ overstate earnings when economy is recession and understate earnings when economy is booming，PZ’s financial statements are best categorized as:
选项：
A.GAAP, decision-useful, sustainable, and adequate returns
B.Within GAAP, but "earnings management"
C.GAAP, decision-useful, not sustainable, Low "earnings quality"
解释：
B is correct.
考点：Quality Spectrum Of Financial Reports
解析：这个题考的是一级财务的知识
题干说了公司是遵守会计准则的(GAAP)，注意这里不是指US GAAP，而是说公司遵守了普遍适用的会计准则，但是earning 有问题，所以选B。具体描述：Reporting is compliant with GAAP, but the amount of earnings is actively managed to increase, decrease, or smooth reported earnings.
因为老师上课的时候好像是在说到这一条的时候说的increase decrease and smooth earning，我还以为这个是biased method
这题则是意思是earning management咯？
这两条的对比请老师解释一下。
