Financial Statements and Business Decisions n n n n




ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS n n




1. Accounting is a system that collects and processes (analyzes, measures, and
n n n n n n n n n n




records) financial information about an organization and reports that information to
n n n n n n n n n n n




decision makers.
n n




2. Financial accounting involves preparation of the four basic financial statements and
n n n n n n n n n n




related disclosures for external decision makers. Managerial accounting involves the
n n n n n n n n n n




preparation of detailed plans, budgets, forecasts, and performance reports for internal
n n n n n n n n n n n




decision makers.
n n




3. Financial reports are used by both internal and external groups and individuals. The
n n n n n n n n n n n n




internal groups are comprised of the various managers of the entity. The external
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




groups include the owners, investors, creditors, governmental agencies, other
n n n n n n n n n




interested parties, and the public at large.
n n n n n n n




4. Investors purchase all or part of a business and hope to gain by receiving part of what
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




the company earns and/or selling their ownership interest in the company in the
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




future at a higher price than they paid. Creditors lend money to a company fora
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




specific length of time and hope to gain by charging interest on the loan.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n

, 5. In a society, each organization can be defined as a separate accounting entity. An
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




accounting entity is the organization for which financial data are to be collected. Typical
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




accounting entities are a business, a church, a governmental unit, a university and
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




other nonprofit organizations such as a hospital and a welfare organization. A
n n n n n n n n n n n n




business typically is defined and treated as a separate entity because the owners,
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




creditors, investors, and other interested parties need to evaluate its performance and
n n n n n n n n n n n n




its potential separately from other entities and from itsowners.
n n n n n n n n n n

8. (a) The purpose of the income statement is to present information about the
n n n n n n n n n n n




revenues, expenses, and the net income of an entity for a specified period of
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




time.
n




(b) The purpose of the balance sheet is to report the financial position of an entityat a
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




given date, that is, to report information about the assets, liabilities and
n n n n n n n n n n n n




stockholders’ equity of the entity as of a specific date.
n n n n n n n n n n




(c) The purpose of the statement of cash flows is to present information about theflow
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n

n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




net increase or decrease in cash during the period.

n n n n n n n n n n n n n

n n n n n n n n n n n




that period.
n n




9. The income statement and the statement of cash flows are dated ―For the Year
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




Ended December 31‖ because they report the inflows and outflows of resources
n n n n n n n n n n n n




during a period of time. In contrast, the balance sheet is dated ―At December 31‖
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




because it represents the resources, obligations, and stockholders’ equity at a
n n n n n n n n n n n




specific date.
