Explanation / Answer

Part A

AMR would recognize only the capitalized leases on its 2011 balance sheet.The total amount oflease liabilities that would appear is $679 million. We cannot determine the amount of leasedassets on the balance sheet from the footnote. But the net book value of these assets would beincluded in AMR’s balance sheet
