CRITICAL THINKING/ETHICAL CASE n n n

n n n n n n n n n n n n
information.
n
2. Sole proprietorship—one owner, unlimited liability; easy to form Partnership—two or more owners;
n n n n n n n n n n n
unlimited liability, easy to form Corporation—one or more shareholders; limited liability; more
n n n n n n n n n n n n
difficult to form.

3. Service, merchandising, or manufacturing.
n n n
4. The objective of accounting is to provide relevant, timely information for user decision making.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
Accountants must behave in an ethical manner so that the information they provide will be trustworthy
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
and, therefore, useful for all decisions. Ethics are moral principles that guide the conduct of individuals.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
Sometimes business managers and accountants behave in an unethical manner.
n n n n n n n n n n
5. The three elements of the basic accounting equation are assets, liabilities, owner’s equity.
n n n n n n n n n n n n
6. Capital is the owner’s current investment or equity in the assets of a business. It is one subdivision of
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
owner’s equity.

7. True. The sum of the left side of the equation must equal the sum of the right side of the equation.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
8. False. It is the income statement that tells how well the company has performed.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
9. False. Revenue is a subdivision of owner’s equity.
n n n n n n n
10. Owner’s equity is subdivided into Capital, Withdrawals, Revenue, and Expenses.
n n n n n n n n n
11. False. It is a subdivision of owner’s equity.
n n n n n n n
12. Reject. As expenses increase and revenue remains the same, owner’s equity decreases.
n n n n n n n n n n n
13. Revenue less Expenses; an income statement shows performance—profit or loss for the period.
n n n n n n n n n n n n
14. False. It calculates ending capital.

15. The question in this case is whether Paul should be allowed to ―pad‖ his expense account with an
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
additional $100 of expenses. Paul should be allowed to charge only those items that are business related.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
Paul’s argument that he is entitled to an additional $100 is not a valid assumption. However, he should be
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
allocated money for any business expenses during the weekend. Paul should also ask his employer for
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
additional compensation for working during his non scheduled time. The important point is that
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
accountants need to be seen as being ethical and should not do unethical activities.
