To provide information useful in assessing cash flow prospects. To provide information about business resources, claims to those resources, and changes in them.

Discussion Q. What are the three objectives of financial reporting? A. According to the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the three objectives of financial reporting are: (1) to furnish information useful in making investment and credit decisions; (2) to provide information useful in assessing cash flow prospects; and (3) to provide information about business resources, claims to those resources, and changes in them.

Qualitative Characteristics and the Conventions of Accounting Information Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

10 Qualitative Characteristics of Accounting Information (continued…)
Qualitative characteristics of accounting information are standards for judging accounting information. The two qualitative characteristics are understandability and usefulness. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

11 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Understandability The accountant prepares financial statements according to accepted practices that are believed to be understandable. Decision makers must interpret accounting information and use it in making decisions. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

12 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Usefulness To be useful, accounting information must be relevant and reliable. Relevance means the information can affect the outcome of a decision. Provide feedback. Help predict future conditions. Be timely. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

13 Usefulness (continued…)
Reliability means the user must be able to depend on the information. Must represent what it is meant to represent and be credible. Must be verifiable by independent parties using the same methods of measuring. Must be neutral. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

14 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Discussion Q. What are the qualitative characteristics of accounting information, and why are they important? Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

15 Discussion (continued…)
A. Qualitative characteristics are standards for judging the information that accountants give to decision makers. Accountants try to provide information that is understandable and useful. Understandable means that the user is able to interpret the information. Usefulness depends on the characteristics of relevance and reliability. Relevance requires that the information give feedback, help make predictions, and be timely. Reliability requires that the information represent what it is supposed to represent, and be credible, verifiable, and neutral. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

16 Conventions That Help in the Interpretation of Financial Information
OBJECTIVE 3 Define and describe the use of the conventions of comparability and consistency, materiality, conservatism, full disclosure, and cost-benefit.

17 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Comparability Information is presented in such a way that a decision maker can recognize similarities, differences, and trends over different time periods or between different companies. Accounting information can be compared with similar facts about the same company over several time periods or about another company for the same time period. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

18 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Consistency An accounting procedure, once adopted by a company, remains in use from one period to the next unless users are informed of the change. GAAP require that any change in an accounting procedure and its dollar effect be described in the notes to the financial statements. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

19 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Materiality Materiality refers to the relative importance of an item or event. An item is material if users would have done something differently if they had known about the item. Materiality is normally determined by relating its dollar value to an element of the financial statements, such as net income or total assets. Some accountants follow the 5% or more of net income rule to judge materiality. Materiality also depends on the nature of the item, not just its value. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

20 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Conservatism When accountants face major uncertainties about which accounting procedure to use, they generally choose the one that is least likely to overstate assets and income. Abuse of the conservatism principle may lead to financial statements that are misleading. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

21 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Full Disclosure Full disclosure requires that financial statements and their notes present all information that is relevant to the users’ understanding of the statements. Beyond required disclosures, application of full disclosure is based on the judgment of management and the accountants who prepare the financial statements. The demands for full disclosure have increased in recent years. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

22 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Cost-Benefit Benefits to be gained from providing accounting information should be greater than the costs of providing it. Beyond providing minimum levels of relevance and reliability, cost-benefit is based on professional judgment. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

23 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Discussion Q. What are the accounting conventions? A. The five conventions that help users interpret financial statements are: comparability and consistency, materiality, conservatism, full disclosure, and cost-benefit. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

24 Management’s Responsibility for Ethical Reporting

The misapplication of accounting principles (e.g. treating as an asset an item that should be expensed). Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

26 Possible Motives for Fraudulent Financial Reporting
To obtain a higher price when a company is sold. To meet the expectations of stockholders. To obtain a loan. For personal gain. Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.

27 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Discussion Q. Who is responsible for preparing reliable financial statements, and what is a principal way of fulfilling the responsibility? A.

Discussion Q. How would a mortgage that is paid monthly for 120 months be classified? A.

45 Forms of the Income Statement
OBJECTIVE 6 Prepare multistep and single-step classified income statements.

50 Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.
Discussion Q. Why are other revenues and expenses separated from operating revenues and expenses in the multistep income statement? A. Other revenues and expenses are separated from operating revenues and expenses so that income from operations (the actual business of the company) can be isolated from the financing and non-operating aspects.
