b. The four most important financial statements provided in the annual report are the balance sheet, income statement, cash budget, and statement of stockholders' equity.
c. Assets other than cash are expected to produce cash over time, and the amounts of cash they eventually produce should be exactly the same as the amounts at which the assets are carried on the books.
d. The primary reason the annual report is important in finance is that it is used by investors when they form expectations about the firm's future earnings and dividends, and the riskiness of those cash flows.
e. Prior to the Enron scandal in the early 2000s, companies would put verbal information in their annual reports, along with the financial statements. That verbal information was often misleading, so today annual reports can contain only quantitative information--audited financial statements.
