ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
| |
1. Accounting |is |a |system |that |collects |and |processes |(analyzes, |measures, |and
|records) |financial |information |about |an |organization |and |reports |that |information |to
|decision |makers.
2. Financial |accounting |involves |preparation |of |the |four |basic |financial |statements |and
|related |disclosures |for |external |decision |makers. |Managerial |accounting |involves
|the |preparation |of |detailed |plans, |budgets, |forecasts, |and |performance |reports |for
|internal | decision | makers.
3. Financial |reports |are |used |by |both |internal |and |external |groups |and |individuals. |The
|internal |groups |are |comprised |of |the |various |managers |of |the |entity. |The |external
|groups |include |the |owners, |investors, |creditors, |governmental |agencies, |other
|interested |parties, |and |the |public |at |large.
4. Investors |purchase |all |or |part |of |a |business |and |hope |to |gain |by |receiving |part |of
|what |the |company |earns |and/or |selling | their |ownership |interest |in |the |company |in
|the |future |at |a |higher |price |than |they |paid. |Creditors |lend |money |to |a |company |for|a
|specific |length |of |time |and |hope |to |gain |by |charging |interest |on |the |loan.
, 5. In |a |society, |each |organization |can |be |defined |as |a |separate |accounting |entity. |An
|accounting |entity |is |the |organization |for |which |financial | data |are |to |be |collected.
|Typical | accounting |entities |are |a |business, |a |church, |a |governmental |unit, |a
|university |and |other |nonprofit |organizations |such |as |a |hospital | and |a |welfare
|organization. |A |business |typically |is |defined |and |treated |as |a |separate |entity
|because |the |owners, |creditors, |investors, |and |other |interested |parties |need |to
|evaluate |its |performance |and |its |potential |separately |from |other |entities |and |from |its
|owners.
6. Name |of |Statement Alternative |Title

Income; |Statement |of |Operations
(b) Balance |Sheet (b) |Statement |of |Financial |Position
(c) Cash |Flow |Statement (c) | Statement |of |Cash |Flows

|following:
(a) Name |of |the |entity
(b) Name |of |the |statement
(c) Date |of |the |statement, |or |the |period |of |time
(d) Unit |of |measure
8. (a) The |purpose |of |the |income |statement |is |to |present |information |about |the
|revenues, |expenses, |and |the | net |income |of |an |entity |for |a |specified |period | of
|time.
(b) The |purpose |of |the |balance |sheet |is |to |report |the |financial |position |of |an |entity
|at |a |given |date, |that |is, |to |report |information |about |the |assets, | liabilities |and
|stockholders’ |equity |of |the |entity |as |of |a |specific |date.
(c) The |purpose |of |the |statement |of |cash |flows |is |to |present |information |about |the
|flow |of |cash |into |the |entity |(sources), |the |flow |of |cash |out |of |the |entity |(uses),
|and |the |net |increase |or |decrease |in |cash |during |the |period.
(d) The |statement |of |stockholders’ |equity |reports |the |changes |in |each |of |the
|company’s |stockholders’ |equity |accounts |during | the |accounting |period,
|including |issue |and |repurchase |of |stock |and | the |way |that |net |income |and
|distribution |of |dividends |affected |the |retained |earnings |of |the |company |during
|that |period.
9. The |income |statement |and |the |statement |of |cash |flows |are |dated |―For |the |Year
|Ended |December |31‖ |because |they |report |the |inflows |and |outflows |of |resources
|during |a |period |of |time. |In |contrast, |the |balance |sheet |is |dated |―At |December |31‖
|because |it |represents |the |resources, |obligations, |and |stockholders’ |equity |at |a
|specific |date.
