,Chapter 1 hs hs Environment and Theoretical Structure hs hs hs



Financial Accounting hs




Question 1–1 hs


Financial accounting is concerned with providing relevant financial
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsinformation about various kinds of organizations to different types of external
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsusers. The primary focus of financial accounting is on the financial information
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsprovided by profit- oriented companies to their present and potential investors
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsand creditors.
hs




Question 1–2 hs


Resources are efficiently allocated if they are given to enterprises that will
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsuse them to provide goods and services desired by society and not to enterprises
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsthat will waste them. The capital markets are the mechanism that fosters this
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


h sefficient allocation of resources.
hs hs hs




Question 1–3 hs


Two extremely important variables that must be considered in any
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsinvestment decision are the expected rate of return and the uncertainty or risk of
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsthat expected return.
hs hs




Question 1–4 hs


In the long run, a company will be able to provide investors and creditors
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hswith a rate of return only if it can generate a profit. That is, it must be able to
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsuse the resources provided to it to generate cash receipts from selling a product
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsor service that exceed the cash disbursements necessary to provide that product
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsor service.
hs




Question 1–5 hs


The primary objective of financial accounting is to provide investors and
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs h s


hscreditors with information that will help them make investment and credit
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsdecisions.

Question 1–6 hs


Net operating cash flows are the difference between cash receipts and cash
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsdisbursements during a period of time from transactions related to providing
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsgoods and services to customers. Net operating cash flows may not be a good
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsindicator of future cash flows because, by ignoring uncompleted transactions,
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


hsthey may not match the accomplishments and sacrifices of the period.
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs

,Question 1–7 hs


GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) are a dynamic set of both
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs h s hs


broad and specific guidelines that a company should follow in measuring and
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs h s


reporting the information in their financial statements and related notes. It is
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs h s h s


important that all companies follow GAAP so that investors can compare
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


financial information across companies to make their resource allocation
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


decisions.
hs




Question 1–8 hs


In 1934, Congress created the SEC and gave it the job of setting accounting
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


and reporting standards for companies whose securities are publicly traded. The
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


SEC has retained the power, but has relied on private sector bodies to create the
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


standards. The current private sector body responsible for setting accounting
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


standards is the FASB.
hs hs hs hs




Question 1–9 hs


Auditors are independent, professional accountants who examine financial
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


statements to express an opinion. The opinion reflects the auditors‗ assessment of
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


the statements' fairness, which is determined by the extent to which they are
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


prepared in compliance with GAAP. The auditor adds credibility to the financial
hs hs hs hs hs h s hs hs hs hs hs hs


statements, which increases the confidence of capital market participants relying
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


on that information.
hs hs hs

, Question 1–10 hs


Key provisions included in the text are:
hs hs hs hs hs hs


 Creation of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


 Regulate types of non-audit audit services hs hs hs hs hs


 Require lead audit partner rotation every 5 year
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


 Corporate executive accountability hs hs


 Addresses conflicts of interest for security analysts
hs hs hs hs hs hs


 Internal control reporting and auditor opinion about controls
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs




Question 1–11 hs


New accounting standards, or changes in standards, can have significant
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


differential effects on companies, investors and creditors, and other interest
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


groups by causing redistribution of wealth. There also is the possibility that
hs hs hs hs hs hs h s hs hs hs hs hs


standards could harm the economy as a whole by causing companies to change
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


their behavior.
hs hs




Question 1–12 hs


The FASB undertakes a series of elaborate information gathering steps before
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


issuing an accounting standard to determine consensus as to the preferred method
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


of accounting, as well as to anticipate adverse economic consequences.
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs




Question 1–13 hs


The purpose of the conceptual framework is to guide the Board in
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


developing accounting standards by providing an underlying foundation and basic
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs


reasoning on which to consider merits of alternatives. The framework does not
hs hs hs hs hs hs hs hs h s hs hs hs


prescribe GAAP.
