DISCUSSION QUESTIONS k




1. Some users of accounting information include managers, employees, investors, creditors,
k k k k k k k k k




customers, and the government.
k k k k




2. The role of accounting is to provide information for managers to use in operating the business. In
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




addition, accounting provides information to others to use in assessing the economic performance
k k k k k k k k k k k k k




and condition of the business.
k k k k k




3. The corporate form allows the company to obtain large amounts of resources by issuing stock.
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




For this reason, most companies that require large investments in property, plant, and equipment are
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




organized as corporations.
k k k




4. No. The business entity concept limits the recording of economic data to transactions directly
k k k k k k k k k k k k k




affecting the activities of the business. The payment of the interest of $4,500 is a personal
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




transaction of Josh Reilly and should not be recorded by Dispatch Delivery Service.
k k k k k k k k k k k k k




5. The land should be recorded at its cost of $167,500 to Reliable Repair Service. This is consistent with
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




the cost concept.

6. a. No. The offer of $2,000,000 and the increase in the assessed value should not be recognized in
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k

k k k k k k k k k k k k




would increase by $1,225,000.
k k k k




7. An account receivable is a claim against a customer for goods or services sold. An account payable is
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




an amount owed to a creditor for goods or services purchased. Therefore, an account receivable in the
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




records of the seller is an account payable in the records of the purchaser.
k k k k k k k k k k k k k k




8. (b) The business realized net income of $91,000 ($679,000 – $588,000).
