ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS hg hg




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


records) financial information about an organization and reports that
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


information to decision makers.
hg hg hg h g




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


and related disclosures for external decision makers. Managerial accounting
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


involves the preparation of detailed plans, budgets, forecasts, and performance
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


reports for internal decision makers.
hg hg hg h g hg




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


The internal groups are comprised of the various managers of the entity. The
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


external groups include the owners, investors, creditors, governmental
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg


agencies, other interested parties, and the public at large.
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg




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


of what the company earns and/or selling their ownership interest in the
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


company in the future at a higher price than they paid. Creditors lend money
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


to a company for a specific length of time and hope to gain by charging
hg hg hg hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


interest on the loan.

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


h gaccounting entity is the organization for which financial data are to be collected.
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


h gTypical accounting entities are a business, a church, a governmental unit, a
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


university and other nonprofit organizations such as a hospital and a welfare
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


organization. A business typically is defined and treated as a separate entity
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


because the owners, creditors, investors, and other interested parties need to
hg hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


evaluate its performance and its potential separately from other entities and
hg hg hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg


from its owners.
hg hg hg




6. Name of Statement hg hg Alternative Title hg


(a) Income Statement hg (a) Statement of Earnings; Statement of
hg hg hg hg hg


Income; Statement of Operations hg hg hg


(b) Balance Sheet hg (b) Statement of Financial Position
hg hg hg hg


(c) Cash Flow Statement hg hg (c) Statement of Cash Flows
hg hg hg hg




7. The heading of each of the four required financial statements should include
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


the following:
hg h g


(a) Name of the entity hg hg hg


(b) Name of the statement hg hg hg


(c) Date of the statement, or the period of time
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


(d) Unit of measure hg hg




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


the revenues, expenses, and the net income of an entity for a
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


specified period of time.
hg hg hg h g


(b) The purpose of the balance sheet is to report the financial position of an
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


entity at a given date, that is, to report information about the assets,
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


liabilities and stockholders’ equity of the entity as of a specific date.
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


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


the flow of cash into the entity (sources), the flow of cash out of the
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


entity (uses), and the net increase or decrease in cash during the period.
hg hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


(d) The statement of stockholders’ equity reports the changes in each of the
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


h gcompany’s stockholders’ equity accounts during the accounting period,
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


h gincluding issue and repurchase of stock and the way that net income and
hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


h gdistribution of dividends affected the retained earnings of the company hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


during that period.
hg h g hg




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


Year Ended December 31‖ because they report the inflows and outflows
hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


of resources during a period of time. In contrast, the balance sheet is
hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg hg


dated ―At December 31‖ because it represents the resources, obligations,
hg hg hg hg h g hg hg hg hg hg


and stockholders’ equity at a specific date.
