Module 1: Financial Accounting for MBAs
True/False
TOPIC:Users of Financial Statement Information LO:
2
1. Shareholders demand financial information primarily to assess profitability and risk whereas bankers
demand information primarily to assess cash flows to repay loan interest and principal.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-True
Reasoning:->>->>>While both shareholders and bankers are interested in all the information
companies provide, shareholders care about more about a firm’s profitability and bankers care more
about solvency and creditworthiness.
TOPIC:Publicly Available Financial
Reports LO: 2
2. Publicly traded companies are required to provide quarterly financial reports directly to the public.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False
Reasoning:->>->>>Companies provide electronic versions of quarterly financial statements to the
SEC, which posts them to the Internet for the public to access them.
TOPIC:Users of Financial Statement Information LO:
2
3. Publicly traded companies provide financial information primarily to satisfy the SEC and the tax
authorities (that is, the Internal Revenue Service).
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False
Reasoning :->>->>>Demand for information extends to many users; the regulators such as the SEC
and the IRS are only one class of users.
TOPIC:SEC Filings LO:
2
4. Publicly traded companies must provide to the Securities Exchange Commission annual audited
financial statements (10-K reports) and quarterly audited financial statements (10-Q reports).
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False
Reasoning:->>->>>Quarterly reports do not need to be audited.
TOPIC:Balance
Sheet LO: 3
5. If a firm reports retained earnings of $175.3 million on its balance sheet, it must also report
$175.3 million in cash.

stockholders’ equity. That does not imply, however, that liability and equity accounts relate directly to
specific assets.

TOPIC:Balance
Sheet LO: 3
6. A balance sheet shows a firm’s position over a period of time, whereas an income statement,
statement of stockholders’ equity, and statement of cash flows show its position at a point in time.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False
Reasoning:->>->>>The statement is reversed: A balance sheet shows a firm’s position at a point in
time, whereas an income statement, statement of equity, and statement of cash flows show its
position over a period of time.
TOPIC:Accounting
Equation LO: 3
7. Assets must always equal liabilities plus equity.

TOPIC:Income Statement LO:
3
8. The income statement reports net income which is defined as the firm’s profit after all expenses and
dividends have been paid.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False
Reasoning:->>->>>The statement contains two errors. First, net income does not include any

the income statement is prepared on an accrual basis and thus includes expenses incurred (as
opposed to paid).
TOPIC:Statement of Cash
Flows LO: 3
9. A statement of cash flows reports on cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities at a
point in time.
ACCURATE ANSWER:-False

financing activities over a period of time.
TOPIC:Statement of Stockholders’ Equity
LO: 3
