Which of the following statements is CORRECT? * Time lines cannot be constructed in situations where some of the cash flows occur annually but others occur quarterly. Some of the cash flows shown on a time line can be in the form of annuity payments, but none can be uneven amounts. Time lines can be constructed for annuities where the payments occur at either the beginning or the end of the periods. Time lines are not useful for visualizing complex problems prior to doing actual calculations. A time line is not meaningful unless all cash flows occur annually.
