(a) Internal users of accounting information work for the company and include finance directors, marketing managers, human resource personnel, production supervisors, and company officers. Internal users have access to company informati on that is not available to external users. (b) Some external users may be individuals who are employees of the company but are not directly involved in managing the company.

These external users need to make decisions concerning their ongoing business relationship with the company . They need to be able to assess the company’s performance and financial health because they intend to start, continue , or discontinue having transactions with the company. Other decision makers who have specific needs for certain financial information, such as the amount of taxes paid by the company , are not considered primary users. LO 1 BT: C Difficulty: M TIME : 5 min. AACSB: None CPA: cpa -t001 CM: Reporting 5. Decision makers rely on financial statement information and expect the accounting information to have been prepared ethically. W ithout the expectation of ethical behaviour, the information presented in the financial statements would have no credibility for the users of the accounting information . Without credibility, financial statement information would be useless to financial statement users. LO 1 BT: C Difficulty: M TIME : 5 min.

They are not taxed as separate entities; rather , the proprietor pays personal income tax on the company’s net income . Depending on the circumstances, this may be an advantage or disadvantage. Disadvantages of a proprietorship include unlimited liability (proprietors are personally liable for all debts of the business) and difficulty in obtaining financing compared to other forms of organization. In addition, the life of the proprietorship is limited as it is dependent on the willingness and capability of the proprietor to continue operations. A+
