ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS - CHAPTER 1
1. Financial accounting deals with regulated, historical, financial
information that pertains to the whole company and is designed
primarily to meet the information needs of outsiders. Managerial
ST
accounting is concerned with unregulated financial, economic,
and nonfinancial data, which pertains more to the sub-units of the
organization, that is current and future oriented, and that is
designed primarily to meet the information needs of insiders.
UV
2. The value-added principle means that management accountants
are free to engage in any information gathering and reporting
activity so long as the activity adds value in excess of its cost.
Estimates of future product costs are permissible in managerial
IA
accounting reports for budgeting and product costing but would
not be allowed by financial regulations in financial accounting.
3. The two dimensions of the TQM program are: (1) management
_A
should follow a continuous, systematic problem-solving
philosophy that encourages achievement of zero defects in
production and engages all employees to eliminate waste and
errors and to simplify the design and delivery of products and
PP
services to customers, and (2) organizations need a strong
commitment to customer satisfaction. TQM is being used in
business to maintain profitability in an increasingly competitive
global market. In this environment, profit margins are tight, and
RO
therefore, inefficiencies can more easily erode business profits.
To eliminate waste, errors, and dissatisfied customers, information
must be timely and relevant in order to prevent or discover and
correct mistakes immediately.

4. Both financial and managerial accountants need cost information
about the company’s products and services. In managerial
accounting cost information is useful in product pricing decisions
and is an essential part of cost control (comparing actual product
cost to budgeted product cost to assess needed improvement)
and performance evaluation (assess managers’ success in
ST
controlling and eliminating unnecessary cost). In financial
accounting, cost information about the product is needed to
determine ending inventory on the balance sheet and cost of
UV
goods sold on the income statement. Product costing in financial
accounting can impact the decisions of not only managers but
also outsiders such as investors, creditors, and taxing authorities.
Product costing information in managerial accounting can affect
the product’s selling price as well as management’s decisions as
IA
to whether cost correction changes are needed.
5. Costs are assets used in the process of earning revenue but not
all costs of the earning process are used in the same period in
_A
which they are incurred. Therefore, a cost that is used in the
process of earning revenue is recorded as an expense (e.g.
administrative salaries and product cost for products sold) and a
cost that has future benefit in the earning process is recorded as
PP
an asset in the period that it is incurred.
6. The cash paid to production workers has not been used to
produce revenue but to produce inventory. The revenue is earned
RO
when the inventory is sold at which time the cost of salaries
associated with those products sold should be expensed as cost
of goods sold.
