Accounting willprovide Zane important information on his business’ performance to make informeddecisions on his expansion strategy.2.Businesses offering products include Danier Leather.,Lululemon, NIKE,andReebokwhich produce apparel;Dell, Hewlett-Packard,andApplewhich produce computerequipment;andAbercrombie and FitchGAP, and Zarawhich produce clothing.Servicebusinessexamplesinclude:WestJetAirlineswhichprovidesairlineservices;BellCanada,RogersCommunications,andTelusprovideinformationcommunicationservices;andGoogle,Twitter,Skype,FacebookandInstagramwhich provideinternetservices.3.“Accounting is relevant to all students even if they do not plan on becoming anaccountant. If you are pursuing a career in marketing, you will need to understandinformation such assales volume, advertising costs, promotion costs, salaries ofsales personnel, and sales commissions. If you are studying human resources, youwill need to understand the financial position of your company to determine whetheryou have the resources to hire new employees or provide existing employees a payincrease. Even if you do not pursue a career in business, understanding the basicsof accounting can help you better understand your own personal finances and theworld around us. I am convinced that this course will be a good investment of ourtime.”4.Answers will vary on what students would sell.Business organizations can beorganized in one of three forms: sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation.These forms have implications for legal liability, taxation, continuity, number ofowners, and legal status as follows:SoleProprietorshipPartnershipCorporationLegal entitynonoyesLimited liabilitynonoyesUnlimited lifenonoyesBusiness income taxednonoyesOne owner allowedyesnoyesAnswers and reasons will vary for the best form of business. Possible answersinclude: A sole proprietorship would be easiest to form for a student. A partnershipwould be helpful in bringing people with multiple skills and/or resources together. Acorporation would be the easiest to obtain financing and to limit liability.5.The equity section of the balance sheet reports aHailey Walker, Capital account.

Accounting professionals deal with a variety of information about their employersandclientsthatisnotgenerallyavailabletothepublic.Ethicalissuesariseconcerning the possibility that accounting professionals might personally benefit byusing confidential information. There is also the possibility that their employers andclients might be harmed if certain information is not kept confidential.14.An income statement user must know what time period is covered to judge whetherthe company’s performance is satisfactory. For example, a statement user would notbe able to assess whether the amounts of revenue andprofitare satisfactory withoutknowing whether they were earned over a week, a month, or a year.15.The revenue recognition principle provides guidance that managers and auditorsneed for knowing when to recognize revenue. For example, if revenue is recognizedtooearly, the income statement reports incomeearlier than it shouldand thebusiness looks more profitable than it really is. On the other hand, if the revenue isnot recognized on time, the income statement shows lower amounts of revenue andprofitthan it should and the business looks less profitable than it really is. Basically,this principle requires revenue to be recognized when it is earned and can bemeasured reliably. The amount of revenue should equal the value of the assetsreceived from the customers.16.The four financial statements are: the income statement, the balance sheet, thestatement of changes in equity, and the statement of cash flows.17.An income statement reports on the business’s performance during the period.Itshows whether the business earned aprofit(or loss). The statement does not simplyreport the amount ofprofitor loss but lists the types and amounts of the revenuesand expenses.The balance sheet reports on the financial position of a business at a specific pointin time.It is often called the statement of financial position. It provides informationthat helps users understand a company’s financial status. The balance sheet liststhe types and dollar amounts of assets, liabilities, and equity of the business.18.Cash has purchasing power and can be used to acquire other assets.A businessthat sells products to a customer and does not collect cash immediately has createdanAccountsReceivable.Thisaccountrepresentsafuturecollectionofcash.Supplies are resources that will help a business carry on its operations.19. I disagree with Rachel. While an accounts receivable and an accounts payable bothshowuponthebalancesheetandintheaccountingequation,anaccountsreceivable is an asset and an accounts payable is a liability. These two accountsalsorepresenttwodifferentperspectives.Whenacompanysellsproductsorservices on credit, an accounts receivable is created.When a company buysproducts on credit, an accounts payable is created.20.A revenue is an inflow of assets received in exchange for goods or services providedto customers as part of the major or central operations of the business. A revenuealso may occur as a decrease in liabilities as when a service or product is deliveredhaving been paid for in advance.The accountant has recorded revenue incorrectly.The accountant should record $5,000 in revenue from the sale of frozen yogurt and$10,000 as an owner’s investment in the owner’s equity account.

It is decreased by withdrawals made by the owner and by aloss, which is the excess of expenses over revenues.22.(a)Assetsareprobablefutureeconomicbenefitsobtainedorcontrolledbyaparticular entity as a result of past transactions or events. (b) Liabilities are probablefuturesacrificesofeconomicbenefitsarisingfrompresentobligationsofaparticular entity to transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the futureas a result of past transactions or events. (c) Equity is the residual interest in theassets of an entity that remains after deducting its liabilities. (d) The term “netassets” means the same thing as equity, which is also determined as assets lessliabilities.Assets = Liabilities + Equity (Net assets).A celebrity’s assets may include land,real estate, cars and companies. A celebrity’sliabilities may include a mortgage, bank debt and credit card debt.A celebrity’sequity represents their net worth, which is their assets less liabilities.23. Financial statements need to be prepared in a specific order because they areintegrated. Some of the numbers on one financial statement are inputsfor otherfinancialstatements.Financialstatementsshouldbepreparedinthefollowingorder: 1) Income Statement 2) Statement of Changes in Equity 3) Balance Sheet and4) Statement of Cash Flow. The profit on the income statement is an input in thestatement of changes in equity.The ending equity balance on the statement ofchanges in equity is an input for the balance sheet. The cash balance on the balancesheet corresponds to the ending cash balance on the statement of cash flows.

Your employer allows you to submitbusiness calls for reimbursement.2.Ethical issues involved:Whether it is ethical to submit personal calls forreimbursement.3.Fundamental principles and rules applicable to the matter in question:Youremployer’s rule is that you can submit business calls for reimbursement. It is nothonest to misrepresent personal calls for business calls.4.Established internal procedures:Your employer reimburses business calls.5.Alternative courses of action:Bring the situation up with your colleague. Yourcolleague may become upset and this could affect your working relationship.Stay silent, which will likely result in your colleague continuing to submit personalcalls for reimbursement. Let your employer know. This action could result inyour colleague being disciplined by your employer.ConclusionThe behaviour in the situation described appears to be unethical based on theapplication of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Ontario’s Rules of ProfessionalConduct-Approach to Ethical Conflict Resolution.

Whether it is ethical for the ticket-taker to let non-paying patrons into themovie theatre.3.Fundamental principles and rules applicable to the matter in question:The movietheater’s rule is that people must pay for a ticket to watch a movie. To watch amovie without paying is like stealing. Stealing a movie viewing is not honest. Thethree people have misrepresented themselves as paying patrons.4.Established internal procedures:Patrons of the theatre must pay for the moviethey will watch. The ticket-taker needs to see a ticket before admitting people intothe theatre.5.Alternative courses of action:Bring the situation up to the manager at the movietheatre. The consequence will be that the ticket-taker will likely losehis/herjob.Do not take action as this situation does not involve you.

It is not honest forthe cashier to intentionally or unintentionally not perform all of their duties.4.Established internal procedures:The fitness centre requires that all sales arerecorded in the cash register and the customer receives a receipt.5.Alternative courses of action:The cashier could continue providing cash receiptsonly if they are asked. Eventually, thesupervisor and/or owner of the facility willrecognize that drop-in revenues are lower than the actual number of drop-incustomers attending the facility and the cashier will lose his/her job and perhapsface criminal charges.
