Nov 8, 2013 at 0:44 comment added Steven Landsburg @KevinVentullo: You're right, of course. I overlooked this obvious counterexample.
Nov 7, 2013 at 18:48 comment added Jack Huizenga You don't even have to look closely on page 109 of AM: the remark immediately follows the proposition that $\hat A$ is a flat $A$-algebra. Furthermore, the very first exercise in the section is a counterexample to exactness for non-finitely generated modules.
Nov 7, 2013 at 18:23 comment added Kevin Ventullo Also, if you look closely on page 109 of A-M, there is actually a proof of the flatness of $\hat{A}$ as an $A$-algebra.
Nov 7, 2013 at 18:16 comment added Kevin Ventullo In Will Sawin's setup, the injection $\mathbb{Z}\hookrightarrow \mathbb{Q}$ of $\mathbb{Z}$-modules does not remain injective after taking $p$-adic completions.

Nov 7, 2013 at 14:20 comment added Steven Landsburg Perhaps this question is very easy, but after a couple minutes' thought, I don't see the answer. I'm not sure why this was closed.
Nov 7, 2013 at 14:18 comment added Steven Landsburg I don't understand the counterexample. A counterexample should consist of an exact sequence, not just a module.
