INTRODUCTION TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS dd dd dd




CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES dd dd




1. Identify the forms of business organization and the uses of accounting
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


information. A sole proprietorship is a business owned by one person. A partnership
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


is a business owned by two or more people associated as partners. A corporation is
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


a separate legal entity for which evidence of ownership is provided by shares of stock.
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


Internal users are managers who need accounting information to plan, organize, and
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


run business operations. The primary external users are investors and creditors.
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


Investors (stockholders) use accounting information to decide whether to buy, hold, or
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


sell shares of a company‘s stock. Creditors (suppliers and bankers) use accounting
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


information to assess the risk of granting credit or loaning money to
dd dd dd a business. dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd d d dd


Other groups who have an indirect interest in a business are taxing authorities,
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


customers, labor unions, and regulatory agencies.
dd dd dd dd dd dd




2. Explain the three principal types of business activity. Financing activities involve
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


collecting the necessary funds to support the business. Investing activities involve
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


acquiring the resources necessary to run the business. Operating activities involve
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


putting the resources of the business into action to generate a profit.
dd dd d d dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd



3. Describe the four financial statements and how they are prepared. An income
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


statement presents the revenues and expenses of a company for a specific period of
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


time. A retained earnings statement summarizes the changes in retained earnings that
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


have occurred for a specific period of time. A balance sheet reports the assets,
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


liabilities, and stockholders‘ equity of a business at a specific date. A statement of
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


cash flows summarizes information
dd dd concerning the cash inflows (receipts) and
dd dd d d dd dd dd dd dd


outflows (payments) for a specific period of time. Assets are resources owned by a
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


business. Liabilities are the debts and obligations of the business. Liabilities represent
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


claims of creditors on the assets of the business. Stockholders‘ equity represents the
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


claims of owners on the assets of the business. Stockholders‘ equity is subdivided into
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


two parts: common stock and retained earnings. The basic accounting equation is
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders‘ Equity. Within the annual report, the management
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


discussion and analysis provides management‘s interpretation of the company‘s results
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


and financial position as well as a discussion of plans for the future. Notes to the
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


financial statements provide additional explanation or detail to make the financial
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


statements more informative. The auditor‘s report expresses an opinion as to whether
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


the financial statements present fairly the company‘s results of operations and financial
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


position.

*4. Explain the career opportunities in accounting. Accounting offers many different
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


jobs in fields such as public and private accounting, governmental, and forensic
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


accounting. Accounting is a popular major because there are many different types of
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd


jobs, with unlimited potential for career advancement
