ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1. Yes. Accounting is the financial information system that provides useful
financial information to every person who owns and uses economic
resources or otherwise engages in economic activity.
LO 1 BT: C Difficulty: S Time: 5 min. AACSB: None CPA: cpa-t001 CM: Reporting
2. Internal users are those who plan, organize, and run businesses and
include managers, supervisors, directors, and company officers. External
users work for other organizations but have reasons to be interested in the
company’s financial position and performance, and include current or
potential investors (owners), and creditors.
Internal users may want answers to several types of questions. For
example, the finance department wants to know if there is enough cash to
pay the bills. The marketing department wants to know what price the
business should use in selling its products to maximize profits. The human
resources department wants to know how many people the business can
afford to hire. The production department wants to know which product lines
make the business the most profit.
External users may want answers to several types of questions. For
example, investors want to know if the company is earning enough to give
them a return on their investment. Creditors want to know if the company is
able to pay its debts as they come due. Labour unions want to know whether
the owners can afford to pay increased wages and benefits. Customers are
interested in whether a company will continue to honour its product
warranties and support its product lines. Taxing authorities want to know
whether the company respects the tax laws. Regulatory agencies want to
know whether the company is respecting established rules.

3. The main objective of financial reporting is to provide useful information to
investors and creditors (external users) to make decisions about a business.
Users may be potential investors who need to decide if they wish to invest
in the business or they may be creditors deciding if they wish to lend money
to the business. These users want to know if the business is running
successfully and can generate cash and earn a profit.
