26) How does accounting help in the capital allocation process?
Answer: Financial accounting provides information that enables users to evaluate economic entities
and make efficient resource allocation decisions based on the risks and returns of a particular
investment. This process directs capital flows to their most productive uses. The notion of "efficient and
effective" allocation of capital helps drive capitalist economies and societies to greater standards of
living. To provide unreliable and irrelevant information leads to poor capital allocation which adversely
affects the securities market. An inefficient and wasteful allocation would reward poorly run entities
until they ultimately flounder or go bust.

27) In what ways does accounting information proactively interact with its environment?
Answer: Financial accounting is proactive in that it can change or influence its environment by
providing feedback information that is used by organizations and individuals to reshape the economy.
Accounting information is used to efficiently allocate capital resources throughout the economy.
Accounting standards can also influence managerial behavior.

,28) What is meant by general-purpose financial statements?
Answer: Published financial statements are called general-purpose financial statements because they
provide information to a wide spectrum of user groups: investors, creditors, financial analysts,
customers, employees, competitors, suppliers, unions, and government agencies. Although considered
general purpose, most financial information is provided to satisfy users with limited ability or authority
to obtain additional information, which includes investors and creditors.

29) Define data analytics and explain how it can be used in financial reporting.
Answer: Data analytics is the process of analyzing large data sets to draw useful conclusions. It involves
converting raw data into useful knowledge. Data analytics is playing an increasingly important role in the
accounting profession. In financial reporting, we can use data analytics to improve the quality of our
estimates and valuations. Auditors are using it to increase the quality and accuracy of the audit.
