,Chapter 1: Introducing Financial Accounting
True/False
Topic: Cost and benefits of disclosure
LO: 1
1. One reason companies are motivated to disclose financial information to external decision makers is
that it may lower financing and operating costs.
Answer: True
Rationale: For example, when a company applies for a loan, the bank uses the company’s financial
statements to help determine the appropriate interest rate. Without this financial information, a company
may have a higher cost of borrowing or not obtain the loan at all.
Topic: Demand for accounting information
LO: 1
2. Financial accounting is designed primarily for decision makers within the company.
Answer: False
Rationale: Financial accounting is designed primarily to provide information to decision makers outside
of the company, while managerial accounting is designed primarily for decision makers within the
company.
Topic: Investing activities
LO: 2
3. Investing activities are the acquiring and disposing of liabilities that a company needs in order to finance
its operating activities.
Answer: False
Rationale: Investing activities are the acquiring and disposing of assets that a company needs for the
production and sale of a company’s products and services.
Topic: Accounting equation
LO: 2
4. Assets must always equal liabilities plus stockholders’ equity.
Answer: True
Rationale: The accounting equation is Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity. This relation must
always stay in balance.

and nonowner (also called creditor or lender) financing.
Topic: Financing and investing activities
LO: 2
6. Financing activities are defined as the acquiring and disposing of resources for the purpose
of selling products and services.
Answer: False
Rationale: Financing activities are defined as methods a company uses to raise funds to pay for
resources. Investing activities are defined as the acquiring and disposing of resources for the purpose
of selling products and services.
Topic: Statement of cash flows
LO: 3
7. A statement of cash flows reports on cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities at a
point in time.

Topic: Retained earnings
LO: 3
8. Retained earnings are present on both the income statement and the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Answer: False
Rationale: Retained earnings are present in the statement of stockholders’ equity and the balance
sheet. The income statement represents current period earnings.
Topic: Balance sheet
LO: 3
9. If Beatty Company reports retained earnings of $242.6 million on its balance sheet, it will also
report $242.6 million in cash.
Answer: False
Rationale: The accounting equation requires total assets to equal total liabilities plus stockholders’
equity. That does not imply, however, that liability and equity accounts relate directly to specific assets.
