Discussion Questions
11.(SO 1) How might the sales and cash collection processes at a Wal-Mart store differ from the
sales and cash collection processes at McDonald’s? Wal-Mart sells items that are pre-
priced and bar coded with that price. Therefore the cash registers at Wal-Mart use bar code
scanners. However, McDonalds sells fast foods that are not bar coded. The cash registers
at McDonalds use touch screen systems that require a cashier to indicate the items
purchased. The cash collection processes are not different. In both cases, the employee
collects the cash or credit card, and returns any change.
12.(SO 1) Can you think of any procedures in place at McDonald’s that are intended to ensure
the accuracy of your order? Student responses may vary, however, following are a few
examples: Often, at either the drive-through or the inside cash register, the customer can
see a screen that displays the items ordered. In addition, a fast food restaurant uses pre-
designed slots to hold certain types of menu items. When a customer orders a particular
sandwich, the person filling the order knows exactly which slot to pull the sandwich from.
Each customer receives a printed receipt with the items listed and the customer can verify
the accuracy.

McDonald’s? Boeing does not sell to end-user consumers; rather, it sells to companies
such as airlines. Therefore Boeing does not have stores, nor inventory in stores, nor cash
registers to process sales. Boeing is more likely to maintain a sales force that visits potential
customers to solicit sales. Those sales may be entered by the salesperson into a laptop
computer connected to Boeing’s network. McDonald’s, on the other hand, sells to
consumers, uses order input touch screens at each location, and maintains supplies of
perishable food products.
14. (SO 1) Are there business processes that do not in some way affect accounting records or
financial statements? There may be processes that do not directly affect accounting records
(such as recruiting and hiring a new employee), but all processes have a direct or indirect
affect on accounting records. All processes use resources such as material or employee
time. Therefore, all processes have expenses related to those processes that will affect the
accounting records.
15.(SO 2) Briefly describe the five components of an accounting information system.
1. Work steps within a business process that capture accounting data as the
business process occurs.
2. Manual or computer-based records that capture the accounting data from the
business processes.
3. Internal controls within the business process that safeguard assets and ensure
accuracy and completeness of the data.
4. Work steps that process, classify, summarize, and consolidate the raw
accounting data.
5. Work steps that generate both internal and external reports.
16.(SO 2) Describe how sales data are captured and recorded at a restaurant such as
Applebee’s. At most Applebee’s restaurants, a server writes the order on a pad and carries
that pad to a cash register. The server enters the order on a touch screen terminal. The order
information is then displayed on a terminal in the kitchen. When the customer has finished
the meal, the server prints a check and delivers the check to the table. The customer pays
the server by using cash or a credit card. The server processes the payment on the touch
screen register and returns the change or credit card slip to the customer.
17.(SO 2) What occurs in an accounting information system that classifies accounting
transactions? For each business process that affects accounting records, the accounting
information system must capture any resulting accounting data, record the data, process it
through classification, summarization, and consolidation, and generate appropriate reports.
18. (SO 2) What are the differences between internal reports and external reports generated by
the accounting information system? Internal reports are used by management to oversee
and direct processes within the organization. External reports are the financial statements
used by investors and creditors to make
