E7-1 As a study aid, your classmate Pascal Adams has prepared the following list of statements about decision-making and incremental analysis. 1. The fi rst step in management’s decision-making process is, “Determine and evaluate possible courses of action.” 2. The fi nal step in management’s decision-making process is to actually make the decision. 3. Accounting’s contribution to management’s decision-making process occurs primarily in evaluating possible courses of action and in reviewing the results. 4. In making business decisions, management ordinarily considers only fi nancial information because it is objectively determined. 5. Decisions involve a choice among alternative courses of action. 6. The process used to identify the fi nancial data that change under alternative courses of action is called incremental analysis. 7. Costs that are the same under all alternative courses of action sometimes affect the decision. 8. When using incremental analysis, some costs will always change under alternative courses of action, but revenues will not. 9. Variable costs will change under alternative courses of action, but fi xed costs will not
