Answer to Question 1

Key users of accounting information include:
Managers: Marketing managers, for instance, need information about sales in various regions and for various product lines. Financial managers need up-to-date facts about debt, cash, inventory, and capital.

Stockholders: As owners of a company, most stockholders have a keen interest in its financial performance, especially as indicated by the firm's financial statements.

Employees: Strong financial performance would help employees make their case for nice pay raises and hefty bonuses. But if earnings drop-especially multiple times-layoffs might be in the offing, many employees might decide to polish their rsums.
