Information provided by the GAAP principles in the above situation to the managers and the investors

The GAAP principle in the above situation does not provide useful information because the loss faced by the creditor is calculated using the discounted value of the future cash flow (present value of the future cash flow). At the same time, the gains generated by the debtors are not calculated using the discounted present value. Therefore, it will not provide fair information relating to the benefits generated by the debtor due to refinancing.
