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