15) (D) Eliminates the need for interpreting financial data.
Accounting is an art of identifying, recording, classifying and communicating financial data to its users to make better decisions. However it doesnot eliminate the need for interpreting financial data.
16) (C) Purchasing Managers
Shareholders, Customers, Government regulators and Creditors are external users of accounting information as they are external to the organisation. However, Purchasing Managers are internal users of accounting information.
17) (A) A business legally separate from its owners.
A corporation is a business legally separate from its owners (Separate legal entity). It is not controlled by FASB. It is responsible for its own acts and own debts. It is obviously not same as limited liability partnership. It is subject to double taxation (Corporate tax and Dividend distribution tax).
18) (B) Economic entity assumption
Accounting is done on the assumption that entity is separate from its owners. Time period assumption is that accounting is done for a financial year. Going concern assumption is that accounting will be done on the assumption that the entity will be a going concern for a forseeable future. Likewise, remaining two options do not fit the question asked.
19) (A) Going Concern assumption.
As the name itself suggests, accounting must be done on the assumption that the business will be continued for a forseeable future. This is Going concern assumption.
Please feel free to ask any queries and do give a thumbsup if the answers are correct. Thank you.
