1-1. Financial management is the subset of management that focuses on generating financial
m m m m m m m m m m m m




information that can improve decisions. The decisions are oriented toward achieving the
m m m m m m m m m m m m




various goals of the organization while maintaining a satisfactory financial situation.

the owners of the organization.

1-3. In public service organizations, decisions are oriented toward achieving the various goals

of the organization while maintaining a satisfactory financial situation.

1-4. Accounting is a system for keeping track of the financial status of an organization and the
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




financial results of its activities. It has often been referred to as the language of
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




business. The vocabulary used by accounting is the language of nonbusiness

organizations as well.

1-5. Accounting is subdivided into two major areas: managerial accounting and financial
m m m m m m m m m m m




accounting. Managerial accounting relates to generating any financial information that
m m m m m m m m m m




m managers can use to improve the future results of the organization. This includes
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m techniques designed to generate any financial data that might help managers make more
m m m m m m m m m m m m




effective decisions. Major aspects of managerial accounting relate to making financial plans
m m m m m m m m m m m m




for the organization, implementing those plans, and then working to ensure that the plans
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m are achieved. Some examples of managerial accounting include preparing annual
m m m m m m m m m




m operating budgets, generating information for use in making major investment decisions,
m m m m m m m m m m




m and providing the data needed to decide whether to buy or lease a major piece of
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m equipment. Financial accounting provides retrospective information. As events that have
m m m m m m m m m




m financial implications occur they are recorded by the financial accounting system. From
m m m m m m m m m m m




time to time (usually monthly, quarterly, or annually), the recorded data are summarized
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m and reported to interested users. The users include both internal managers and people
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m outside the organization. Those outsiders include those who have lent or might lend
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m money to the organization (creditors), those who might sell things to the organization
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m (called suppliers or vendors), and other interested parties. These interested parties may
m m m m m m m m m m m




include those with a particular interest in public service organizations, such as regulators,
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m legislators, and citizens. Financial reports provide information on the financial status of
m m m m m m m m m m m




m the organization at a specific point in time, as well as reporting the past results of the
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




organization‘s operations (i.e., how well it has done from a financial viewpoint).

1-6. Finance focuses on the alternative sources and uses of the organization‘s financial
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m resources. Obtaining funds when needed from appropriate sources and the deployment
m m m m m m m m m m




m of resources within the organization fall under this heading. In addition, finance involves
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m the financial markets (such as stock and bond markets) that provide a means to
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m generating funds for organizations.
m m m




1-7. Yes. Achieving the goals of the organization requires financial planning. Financial
m m m m m m m m m m m




m management provides information for managers to use in making their decisions. It
m m m m m m m m m m m




m helps managers by providing information on the likely financial impact of each proposed
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m alternative. It also provides information about financial stability, efficiency, and
m m m m m m m m m




m effectiveness.



1-8. Clearly, we might expect some public service organizations that are proprietary, such as
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m some hospitals, to earn profits. But what about other public service organizations such
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m as charities? They should make a profit as well. Profits provide a safety margin against
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m unexpected costs, provide resources to replace buildings and equipment, and to expand
m m m m m m m m m m m




m and improve services.
