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.

2. The four most common types of data analytics and the basic question each addresses are: Descriptive (What
happened?), Diagnostic (Why did it happen?), Predictive (What is likely to happen?), and Prescriptive (What
should we do about it?).

3. 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.

4. (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.

5. (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.

6. 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.

7. Harper Travel Agency should report the land at $85,000 on its December 31, 2027 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.
