CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Identify the activities and users associated with accounting. Accounting is an information
system that identifies, records, and communicates the economic events of an organization to
interested users. The major users and uses of accounting are as follows: (a) Management
uses accounting information to plan, organize, and run the business. (b) Investors (owners)
decide whether to buy, hold, or sell their financial interests on the basis of accounting data. (c)
Creditors (suppliers and bankers) evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money on
the basis of accounting information. Other groups that use accounting information are taxing
authorities, regulatory agencies, customers, and labor unions.
2. Explain the building blocks of accounting: ethics, principles, and assumptions. Ethics
are the standards of conduct by which actions are judged as right or wrong. Effective financial
reporting depends on sound ethical behavior. Generally accepted accounting principles are a
common set of standards used by accountants. The monetary unit assumption requires that
companies include in the accounting records only transaction data that can be expressed in
terms of money. The economic entity assumption requires that the activities of each economic
entity be kept separate from the activities of its owners and other economic entities.
3. State the accounting equation, and define its components. The basic accounting
equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity
Assets are resources owned by a business. Liabilities are creditorship claims on total assets.
Stockholders' equity is the ownership claim on total assets.
4. Analyze the effects of business transactions on the accounting equation. Each business
transaction must have a dual effect on the accounting equation. For example, if an individual
asset increases, there must be a corresponding (1) decrease in another asset, or (2) increase
in a specific liability, or (3) increase in stockholders' equity.
The expanded accounting equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Common Stock + Revenues - Expenses - Dividends
Common stock is affected when the company issues new shares of stock in exchange for
cash. Revenues are increases in assets resulting from income-earning activities. Expenses
are the costs of assets consumed or services used in the process of earning revenue.
Dividends are payments the company makes to its stockholders.
5. Describe the four financial statements and how they are prepared. An income statement
presents the revenues and expenses, and resulting net income or net loss, for a specific
period of time. A retained earnings statement summarizes the changes in retained earnings
for a specific period of time. A balance sheet reports the assets, liabilities, and stockholders'
equity at a specific date. A statement of cash flows summarizes information about the cash
inflows (receipts) and outflows (payments) for a specific period of time.
a
6. Explain the career opportunities in accounting. Accounting offers many different jobs in
fields such as public and private accounting, governmental accounting, and forensic
accounting. Accounting is a popular major because there are many different types of jobs,
with unlimited potential for career advancement.

CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Identify the activities and users associated with accounting. Accounting is an information
system that identifies, records, and communicates the economic events of an organization to
interested users. The major users and uses of accounting are as follows: (a) Management
uses accounting information to plan, organize, and run the business. (b) Investors (owners)
decide whether to buy, hold, or sell their financial interests on the basis of accounting data. (c)
Creditors (suppliers and bankers) evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money on
the basis of accounting information. Other groups that use accounting information are taxing
authorities, regulatory agencies, customers, and labor unions.
2. Explain the building blocks of accounting: ethics, principles, and assumptions. Ethics
are the standards of conduct by which actions are judged as right or wrong. Effective financial
reporting depends on sound ethical behavior. Generally accepted accounting principles are a
common set of standards used by accountants. The monetary unit assumption requires that
companies include in the accounting records only transaction data that can be expressed in
terms of money. The economic entity assumption requires that the activities of each economic
entity be kept separate from the activities of its owners and other economic entities.
3. State the accounting equation, and define its components. The basic accounting
equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity
Assets are resources owned by a business. Liabilities are creditorship claims on total assets.
Stockholders' equity is the ownership claim on total assets.
4. Analyze the effects of business transactions on the accounting equation. Each business
transaction must have a dual effect on the accounting equation. For example, if an individual
asset increases, there must be a corresponding (1) decrease in another asset, or (2) increase
in a specific liability, or (3) increase in stockholders' equity.
The expanded accounting equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Common Stock + Revenues - Expenses - Dividends
Common stock is affected when the company issues new shares of stock in exchange for
cash. Revenues are increases in assets resulting from income-earning activities. Expenses
are the costs of assets consumed or services used in the process of earning revenue.
Dividends are payments the company makes to its stockholders.
5. Describe the four financial statements and how they are prepared. An income statement
presents the revenues and expenses, and resulting net income or net loss, for a specific
period of time. A retained earnings statement summarizes the changes in retained earnings
for a specific period of time. A balance sheet reports the assets, liabilities, and stockholders'
equity at a specific date. A statement of cash flows summarizes information about the cash
inflows (receipts) and outflows (payments) for a specific period of time.
a
6. Explain the career opportunities in accounting. Accounting offers many different jobs in
fields such as public and private accounting, governmental accounting, and forensic
accounting. Accounting is a popular major because there are many different types of jobs,
with unlimited potential for career advancement.
