Accounting information

In general, accounting information can be classified into two main categories: financial accounting (or public information) and managerial accounting (or private information).

Managerial accounting deals with cost and profit relationship, efficiency and productivity, planning and control, pricing decisions, capital budgeting. Not being generally spread outside the company, this information provides a wide variety of specialized reports for division managers, department heads.

Financial accounting differs from managerial accounting because the information and analyses are for people outside of the organization. This information goes to owners, creditors and lenders, governmental units and the general public.

A standard set of financial statement is expected to be prepared regularly by financial accounting and published in an annual report at the end of the fiscal year. These statements include the following items: 1) balance sheet, 2) the statement of cash flow, 3) the income statement, 4) the statement of retained earnings.

The statement of cash flow shows the changes in the company’s financial position and provides information which is not available in either an income statement or a balance sheet. Thus, the statement of cash flow represent the sources and the uses of the company’s funds for operating activities, applications of working capital and data about additional financial support.

The statement of retained earnings shows investors what has happened to their ownership in the company, how earnings and new stocks have increased its value, and what dividends were paid.
