CHAPTER 1
ACCOUNTING IN ACTION
CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Identify the activities and users associated with accounting. Accounting is an information
system that identifies, records, and communicates the economic events of an organization to
interested users. The major users and uses of accounting are as follows: (a) Management
uses accounting information to plan, organize, and run the business. (b) Investors (owners)
decide whether to buy, hold, or sell their financial interests on the basis of accounting data. (c)
Creditors (suppliers and bankers) evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money on
the basis of accounting information. Other groups that use accounting information are taxing
authorities, regulatory agencies, customers, and labor unions.
2. Explain the building blocks of accounting: ethics, principles, and assumptions. Ethics
are the standards of conduct by which actions are judged as right or wrong. Effective financial
reporting depends on sound ethical behavior.
Generally accepted accounting principles are a common set of standards used by
accountants. The primary accounting standard-setting body in the United States is the
Financial Accounting Standards Board.


3. State the accounting equation, and define its components. The basic accounting
equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity
Assets are resources a business owns. Liabilities are creditorship claims on total assets.
Owner's equity is the ownership claim on total assets.
The expanded accounting equation is:
Assets  Liabilities + Owner's Capital  Owner's Drawings + Revenues 
Expenses
Investments by owners (assets the owner puts into the business) are recorded in a category
called owner‘s capital. Owner‘s drawings are the withdrawal of assets by the owner for
personal use. Revenues are the gross increase in owner‘s equity from business activities for
the purpose of earning income. Expenses are the costs of assets consumed or services used
in the process of earning revenue. Owner‘s equity is increased by an owner‘s investments
and by revenues from business operations. Owner‘s equity is decreased by an owner‘s
withdrawals of assets and by expenses.
4. Analyze the effects of business transactions on the accounting equation. Each business
transaction must have a dual effect on the accounting equation. For example, if an individual
asset increases, there must be a corresponding (1) decrease in another asset, or (2) increase
in a specific liability, or (3) increase in owner's equity.
5. Describe the four financial statements and how they are prepared. An income statement
presents the revenues and expenses, and resulting net income or net loss for a specific
period of time. An owner's equity statement summarizes the changes in owner's equity for a
specific period of time. A balance sheet reports the assets, liabilities, and owner's equity at a
specific date. A statement of cash flows summarizes information about the cash inflows
(receipts) and outflows (payments) for a specific period of time.
