, ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

1. True. Virtually every organization and person in our society uses accounting information. Businesses, investors,
creditors, government agencies, and not-for-profit organizations must use accounting information to operate
effectively.
LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

2. Accounting is the process of identifying, recording, and communicating the economic events of an
organization to interested users of the information. The first activity of the accounting process is to identify
economic events that are relevant to a particular business. Once identified and measured, the events are
recorded to provide a history of the financial activities of the organization. Recording consists of keeping a
chronological diary of these measured events in an orderly and systematic manner. The information is
communicated through the preparation and distribution of accounting reports, the most common of which
are called financial statements. A vital element in the communication process is the accountant’s ability and
responsibility to analyze and interpret the reported information.
LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

3. (a) Internal users are those who plan, organize, and run the business and therefore are officers and other
decision makers.
(b) To assist management, accounting provides internal reports. Examples include financial comparisons of
operating alternatives, projections of income from new sales campaigns, and forecasts of cash needs for
the next year.
LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

4. (a) Investors (owners) use accounting information to make decisions to buy, hold, or sell stock.
(b) Creditors use accounting information to evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money.
LO 1, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

5. False. Bookkeeping usually involves only the recording of economic events and therefore is just one part of the
entire accounting process. Accounting, on the other hand, involves the entire process of identifying, recording,
and communicating economic events.
LO 1, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

6. Harper Travel Agency should report the land at $85,000 on its December 31, 2022 balance sheet. This is true
not only at the time the land is purchased, but also over the time the land is held. In determining which
measurement principle to use (historical cost or fair value) companies weigh the factual nature of cost figures
versus the relevance of fair value. In general, companies use historical cost. Only in situations where assets are
actively traded do companies apply the fair value principle.
LO 2, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Measurement, Analysis and Interpretation IMA: Reporting

7. The monetary unit assumption requires that only transaction data capable of being expressed in terms of
money be included in the accounting records. This assumption enables accounting to quantify (measure)
economic events.
LO 2, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Measurement, Analysis and Interpretation IMA:Reporting

,Questions Chapter 1 (Continued)

8. The economic entity assumption requires that the activities of the entity be kept separate anddistinct from
the activities of its owners and all other economic entities.
LO 2, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Measurement, Analysis and Interpretation IMA:Reporting

9. The three basic forms of business organizations are (1) proprietorship, ( 2) partnership, and
(3) corporation.
LO 2, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

10. One of the advantages Juana would enjoy is that ownership of a corporation is represented by transferable
shares of stock. This would allow Juana to raise money easily by selling a part of her ownership in the
company. Another advantage is that because holders of the shares (stockholders) enjoy limited liability, they are
not personally liable for the debts of the corporate entity. Also, because ownership can be transferred without
dissolving the corporation, the corporationenjoys an unlimited life.
LO 2, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

11. The basic accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity.
LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

12. (a) Assets are resources owned by a business. Liabilities are creditor claims against assets— that is, existing
debts and obligations. Stockholders’ equity is the ownership claim on total assets.
(b) Stockholders’ equity is affected by stockholders’ investments, dividends, revenues, and expenses.
LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

13. The liabilities are (b) Accounts payable and (g) Salaries and Wages Payable.
LO 3, BT: K, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

14. Yes, a business can enter into a transaction in which only the left side of the accounting equation is affected.
An example would be a transaction where an increase in one asset is offset by a decrease in another
asset. An increase in the Equipment account which is offset by a decrease in the Cash account is a specific
example.
LO 3, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

15. Business transactions are the economic events of the enterprise recorded by accountantsbecause they affect
the basic accounting equation.
(a) No, the death of the president of the company is not a business transaction as it does notaffect the
basic accounting equation.
(b) Yes, supplies purchased on account is a business transaction as it affects the basicaccounting equation.
(c) No, an employee being fired is not a business transaction as it does not affect the basicaccounting
equation.

(c) Income statement. (f) Balance sheet.

18. No, this treatment is not appropriate. While the transaction does involve a receipt of cash, it does not represent
revenues. Revenues are the gross increase in stockholders’ equity resulting from business activities entered into
for the purpose of earning income. This transaction is simply an additional investment made by one of the
owners of the business.
LO 4, BT: C, Difficulty: Easy, TOT: 2 min., AACSB: None, AICPA FC: Reporting, IMA: Reporting

19. Yes. Net income does appear on the income statement—it is the result of subtracting expenses from revenues.
In addition, net income appears on the retained earnings statement—it is shown as an addition to the
beginning-of-period retained earnings. Indirectly, the net income of a company is also included on the balance
sheet. It is included in the end-of-period retained earnings which appears in the stockholders’ equity section of
the balance sheet.
