,Module 1: Financial Accounting for MBAs

True/False

Topic: Users of Financial StaTement
InformationLO: 2
1. Shareholders demand financial information primarily to assess profitability and risk whereas bankers
demand information primarily to assess cash flows to repay loan interest and principal.

Answer: True
Rationale: While both shareholders and bankers are interested in all the information companies
provide, shareholders care about more about a entreprise’s profitability and bankers care more about
solvency and creditworthiness.

Topic: Publicly Available Financial Reports
LO: 2
2. Publicly traded companies are required to provide quarterly financial reports directly to the public.

Answer: False
Rationale: Companies provide electronic versions of quarterly financial staTements to the SEC, which
posts them to the Internet for the public to access them.

Topic: Users of Financial StaTement
InformationLO: 2
3. Publicly traded companies provide financial information primarily to satisfy the SEC and the tax
authorities (that is, the Internal Revenue Service).

Answer: False
Rationale: Demand for information extends to many users; the regulators such as the SEC and the
IRS are only one class of users.

Topic: SEC Filings
LO: 2
4. Publicly traded companies must provide to the Securities Exchange Commission annual audited
financial staTements (10-K reports) and quarterly audited financial staTements (10-Q reports).

Answer: False
Rationale: Quarterly reports do not need to be audited.

Topic: Balance Sheet
LO: 3
5. If a entreprise reports retained earnings of $175.3 million on its balance sheet, it must also report
$175.3 million in cash.

Answer: False
Rationale: The accounting equation requires total assets to equal total liabilities plus stockholders’
equity. That does not imply, however, that liability and equity accounts relate directly to specific
assets.

, Topic: Balance Sheet
LO: 3
6. A balance sheet shows a enterprise’s position over a period of time, whereas an income
staTement,staTement of stockholders’ equity, and staTement of cash flows show its position at a
point in time.

Answer: False
Rationale: The staTement is reversed: A balance sheet shows a enterprise’s position at a point in
time, whereas an income staTement, staTement of equity, and staTement of cash flows show its
positionover a period of time.

Topic: Accounting Equation
LO: 3
7. Assets must always equal liabilities plus equity.

Answer: True
Rationale: The accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Equity. This relation must always hold.

Topic: Income
StaTementLO: 3
8. The income staTement reports net income which is defined as the entreprise’s profit after all
expensesand dividends have been paid.

Answer: False
Rationale: The staTement contains two errors. First, net income does not include any dividends
during the period; these are a distribution of profits and not part of its calculation. Second, the income
staTement is prepared on an accrual basis and thus includes expenses incurred (as opposed to paid).

Topic: StaTement of Cash
FlowsLO: 3
9. A staTement of cash flows reports on cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities at
apoint in time.

Answer: False
Rationale: A staTement of cash flows reports on cash flows for operating, investing, and financing
activities over a period of time.

Topic: StaTement of Stockholders’
EquityLO: 3
10. An increase in common stock would be reflected in the staTement of stockholders’ equity.

Answer: True
Rationale: The staTement of stockholders’ equity reports on changes in the accounts that make up
stockholders’ equity. This includes contributed capital, retained earnings, and other equity.
