Suggested Answers to Discussion Questions
f f f f




1.1 The value of information is the difference between the benefits realized from using that
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




information and the costs of producing it. Would you, or any organization, ever produce
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




information if its expected costs exceeded its benefits? If so, provide some examples. If not,
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




why?
f




Most organizations produce information only if its value exceeds its cost. However, there are two
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




situations where information may be produced even if its cost exceeds its value.
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




a. It is often difficult to estimate accurately the value of information and the cost of
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




producing it. Therefore, organizations may produce information that they expect will produce
f f f f f f f f f f f f




benefits in excess of its costs, only to be disappointed after the fact.
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




b. Production of the information may be mandated by either a government agency or a
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




private organization. Examples include the tax reports required by the IRS and disclosure
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




requirements for financial reporting.
f f f f

, 1.2 Can the characteristics of useful information listed in Table 1-1 be met simultaneously? Or
f f f f f f f f f f f f f




does achieving one mean sacrificing another?
f f f f f f




Several of the criteria in Table 1.1 can be met simultaneously. For example, more timely
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




information is also likely to be more relevant. Verifiable information is likely to be more accurate.
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




However, achieving one objective may require sacrificing another. For example, ensuring that
f f f f f f f f f f f




information is more complete may reduce its timeliness. Similarly, increased verifiability and
f f f f f f f f f f f f




accuracy may reduce its timeliness.
f f f f f




The decision maker must decide which trade-offs are warranted in each situation.
f f f f f f f f f f f




1.3 You and a few of your classmates decided to become entrepreneurs. You came up with a
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




great idea for a new mobile phone application that you think will make lots of money. Your
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




business plan won second place in a local competition, and you are using the $10,000 prize to
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




support yourselves as you start your company.
f f f f f f f




a. Identify the key decisions you need to make to be successful entrepreneurs, the
f f f f f f f f f f f f




information you need to make them, and the business processes you will need to engage in.
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f




b. Your company will need to exchange information with various external parties. Identify
f f f f f f f f f f f




the external parties, and specify the information received from and sent to each of them.
