    THINKING BEYOND THE QUESTION

    How do we know how well our business is doing?

    Revenues are earned when goods are transferred or services are provid-ed to customers. In most cases, these events are associated with com-pletion of certain critical events, such as delivery of goods. Expenses areincurred when resources are consumed in the process of providing

    goods and services. Therefore, a system that identifies when goods aretransferred, services are provided, and resources are consumed is impor-tant for identifying revenues and expenses.

    Some resources are consumed when goods or services are transferred tocustomers: the cost of goods, supplies, and labor associated with partic-ular jobs. In other cases, the amount of resources consumed is measuredeach fiscal period: salaries and wages, utilities, rent, and insurance. De-pending on the type of resource consumed, identification of the cost ofthe resource associated with specific sales or identification of the cost ofthe resource associated with a fiscal period is an important event for

    identifying expenses during a fiscal period.

    QUESTIONS

    Q2-1 Chapter 2 illustrates two sources of money for companiesloans andowner contributions. Chapter 1 discussed the three forms of businessorganizationsproprietorships, partnerships, and corporations. Tomaintain control, Joan probably would want to organize her business asa proprietorship. If she has enough money or other resources, she canborrow the rest of the capital she needs from a bank. If she does not have

    enough money or other resources and cannot borrow as much as sheneeds, she may have to find one or more partners to help finance thebusiness. Because this is a small business, she is unlikely to want orneed to incorporate at this time or to issue bonds.

    Q2-2 Major sources of financing for corporations are stocks and debt. Bankloans also are possible. Managers should consider how much stock orhow much debt they can incur, what amount of money they will receive

    from the issuance, and whether they can repay debt as it becomes duefrom the profits they expect to earn.

    Q2-3 From the corporations perspective, this event was a financing activity. Thecorporation raised capital (i.e., raised financing) by selling shares ofstock to Jerrilyn.

    Q2-4 Assets = Liabilities + Equity. The question indicates that assets areaccurately reported. Therefore, if liabilities are understated, equity mustbe overstated. For example, assume assets, liabilities, and equity arecorrectly reported as $10,000, $3,000, and $7,000 respectively ($10,000 =$3,000 + $7,000). If liabilities are understated by $1,000, equity must beoverstated by $1,000 to make the accounting equation balance ($10,000 =$2,000 + $8,000).

    Q2-5 Both liabilities and owners equity represent claims to a companysresources.

    Q2-6 The accounting equation presents the relationship between resources andclaims to resources. Financial resources to acquire assets are obtainedfrom financing activities and from revenues earned by the company.When assets are consumed, expenses are created that reduce acompanys profits. The profits earned during a period increase ownersequity, as reported in retained earnings. The total amount of assets isequal to the total amount of liabilities and owners equity.

    Q2-7 Purchasing merchandise inventory is an operating activity. The operatingactivities section of the cash flow statement reports cash from selling

    goods and services and cash paid for expense-related activities.

    Q2-8 Contributed capital represents claims to resources provided by theowners. Sales revenue represents owners claims to resources that wereearned and retained by the company.

    Q2-9 No. Retained Earnings represents earnings kept in the business. Theseearnings are reinvested and may be included in various kinds of assets.Retained Earnings does not equal cash.

    Q2-10 The possibilities will depend on the specific company selected andindustry in which it operates. Exhibit 12 in the text should give students agood start on this question.

    Q2-11 The left side of a balance sheet reveals how an organizations managershave used investors capital. That is, what does the organization own?Or, what amount of capital has been committed to which assets? Theright side of a balance sheet reveals where the capital came from to

    acquire the assets listed on the left side. It reveals how much of theorganizations capital was provided by investors loaning money orextending credit (i.e., liabilities). It also reveals how much capital wasprovided by the owners contributions (invested capital) as well as howmuch capital has been provided by profitable operations of the company(retained earnings).

    Q2-12 A balance sheet reports the assets, liabilities, and equity of anorganization. The income statement reports revenues and expenses. Thestatement of cash flows reports the net cash flows from operatingactivities, investing activities, and financing activities.

    Q2-13 The accounting equation, Assets = Liabilities + Equity, illustrates thatassets are provided by creditors (liabilities) or by owners (equity). Thus,creditors and owners have claims on a companys assets.

    Q2-14 The income statement provides information about how well a company has

    performed during a period based on the operating activities for thatperiod. These activities may affect cash flows of prior or future periods.The income statement helps decision makers assess the long-runsuccess of a company.

    The statement of cash flows describes the cash flows that resultedfrom current-period operating activities. It provides information about acompanys ability to pay current obligations. A company must generatesufficient cash to pay creditors, suppliers, employees, and other pro-viders of goods and services. Net income, as reported on the incomestatement, does not ensure short-run survival of a company.

    Q2-15Most companies of size have hundreds or thousands of individualaccounts. A mere list of accounts and balances would overwhelm thereader with detail and be unlikely to convey any useful information.Accounts and balances are arranged into financial statements for thepurpose of conveying information quickly and conveniently. Similaraccounts are grouped, such as all revenues, all expenses, all assets, etc.Then, to provide further information, certain groups of accounts arearranged into financial statements. For example, revenues and expensesare matched on the income statement. Assets, liabilities, and equity aregrouped on the balance sheet. Account balances are summarized onfinancial statements because they yield more information in this form.

    P2-18 A. ROA = Net Income Total Assets = $4,000 $30,600 = 13%

    B. ROA measures the amount a company earned for each dollar of totalinvestment.

    C. Managers can make changes to produce more income by increasingsales or by reducing expenses. By improving inefficient operations,managers can improve profitability and ROA.

    Managers also can reduce assets by selling nonproductive equip-ment and returning the cash to owners in the form of a dividend.

    Thus, if earnings remain the same, and total assets declines, ROAwill improve.

    CASES

    C2-1 It is unlikely that Frank gets much information from his current accountingsystem. Since his personal finances are commingled with his business

    activities, he cant tell (for sure) whether his business is profitable or not.About all he knows is his checking account balance. Once a month, hegets a statement from the bank, which he could use to verify his checkingaccount. The receipts he keeps could provide information about some ofhis expenses and revenues, but Frank probably is not making use of thisinformation.

    Frank should be able to obtain information about his companys assets,liabilities, owners equity, revenues, and expenses from a new accountingsystem. In addition, he will need revenue information for each locationseparately because the monthly fee paid to each retailer is partially de-pendent on this amount. For management control purposes, Frank will

    probably want to have all categories of financial information broken downby individual location. This information would allow him to evaluatewhether a particular location (or operator) is performing satisfactorily. Amonthly income statement by location would be useful for evaluating theperformance of each stand and employee. An analysis of the companyschecking account would help Frank understand how much cash the com-pany is producing, its cash needs, and how the cash is being used.

    The accounting system could be improved by (a) establishing a separatechecking account for the business; (b) establishing a ledger to keep ac-counts for each of the firms assets, liabilities, owners equities, rev-

    enues, and expenses; and (c) providing periodic (monthly) income state-ments and balance sheets. At a minimum, separate revenue accountsshould be maintained for each location. At a maximum, each accounttype could be divided into separate accounts for each location.

    *As you will learn in Chapter 3, this usually is referred to asDepreciation Expense.

    Separate accounts by location would be useful for Carts, SalesRevenue, Cost of Goods Sold, Wages Expense, Location Fee Ex-pense, Depreciation Expense, and Repair Expense. This would al-low Frank to determine net income for each location and compareprofitability among the locations.

    C2-2 The following questions are examples of key decisions needing to be madeat each stage of the transformation process.

    Financing decisions: How much money is needed for investment and operations? How and when should money be obtained?

    Investing decisions: What building and equipment resources are needed? Do any new long-lived resources need to be added? From where and when should new long-lived resources be obtained?

    Operating decisions: How can resources be used most effectively and efficiently? What materials need to be acquired?

    What employees need to be hired, how should they be trained, andwhat specific tasks should they be assigned to do?

    What will be the cost of adding new employees? How should the products be designed to ensure they can be con-

    structed with the time and resources available to meet customerneeds?

    What schedules are needed for the construction, transportation, andassembly phases in order to minimize waste of labor and materials?

    What marketing strategy should be followed in order to maximizesales?
