If R is a regular and semiartinian ring, it is proved that the following\nconditions are equivalent: (1) R is unit-regular, (2) every factor ring of\nR is directly finite, (3) the abelian group K0(R) is free and admits a\nbasis which is in a canonical one to one correspondence with a set of\nrepresentatives of simple right R-modules. For the class of semiartinian and\nunit-regular rings the canonical partial order of K0(R) is investigated and\nthe directed abelian groups which are realizable as K0(R) of these rings are\nclassified.\n
