LO 1
Explain the role
of accounting
in society.
1-1
Role of Accounting in Society
Accounting
provides
information that
is useful in
answering
questions about
resource
allocation.
Should I
invest money
in IBM or
General
Motors?

Market-Based Allocations
A market is a
group of people
or entities
organized to
exchange items
of value.
1-3
1-4
Market-Based Allocations
Common terms for the added value
created in the transformation process:
Profit
Income
Earnings
1-5
Financial Resources
Conversion agents need financial resources
(money) to establish and operate their
businesses.
Investors
Creditors
1-6
Physical Resources
In their most primitive
form, physical
resources are called
natural resources.
Owners of physical
resources seek to sell
those resources to
profitable businesses
which are able to pay
higher prices and make
repeat purchases.
1-7
Labor Resources
Labor resources include
both intellectual and
physical labor.
Workers seek
relationships with
businesses that have
high earnings potential
because these
businesses are better
able to pay high wages.

Types of Accounting Information
Financial
Accounting
Focused on the
needs of external
users
Managerial
Accounting
Focused on the
needs of internal
users
1-9
Non-business Resource
Allocation
Not all entities allocate resources based on
profitability. Organizations that are not motivated
by profit are called not-for-profit entities.
Government,
foundations, religious
groups, the Peace
Corps, and various
benevolent
organizations allocate
resources based on
humanitarian concerns.

Reliability
Concept
Requires that most
assets be reported at
the amount paid for
them (their historical
cost) regardless of
increases in market
value.
Information is reliable if
it can be independently
verified.
Appraised values are
opinions and will vary
from appraiser to
appraiser.

(4) Management’s Discussion

Traditionally, large
companies have distributed
expensive annual reports
with many color
photographs.
Increasingly, however,
companies are issuing
more modest annual
reports or are simply
distributing their 10-K
reports.
1-44
Special Terms in Real-World Reports
The financial statements of real-world companies include
numerous items relating to advanced topics that are not
covered in introductory accounting textbooks.
However, we encourage you to look for annual reports in
the library, from your employer, or on the Internet.
The best way to
learn
accounting is to
use it.
