Roles of Accounting Information Systems in the Business Environment
SYSTEMS, DATA, AND INFORMATION
Ø A system is a set of interrelated components that interact to achieve a goal. Most systems are composed of smaller subsystems and vice versa.
Ø The systems concept encourages integration
Ø Data are facts that are collected, recorded, stored, and processed by an information system.
Ø Organizations collect data about events that occur, resources that are affected by those events, and agents who participate in the events
Ø Information is different from data. Information is data that have been organized and processed to provide meaning to a user. Usually, more information and better information translates into better decisions. However, when you get more information than you can effectively assimilate, you suffer from information overload. When you’ve reached the overload point, the quality of decisions declines while the costs of producing the information increases.
Ø The value of information can be measured as its benefits minus its costs. Costs are more difficult to quantify.
• Characteristics that make information useful:
– Relevance—reduces uncertainty by helping predict or confirm;
– Reliability—dependable and free from error or bias;
– Completeness—doesn’t leave out anything important;
– Timeliness—received in time to affect the decision;
– Understandability—presented so it’s comprehensible and useful;
– Verifiability—independent people would produce the same result; and
– Accessibility—available when needed in a useable format.
– Information is provided to both external and internal users.
– External users primarily use information that is either mandatory (e.g., required by government) or essential (needed to conduct business).
– In providing mandatory or essential information, the focus should be on minimizing costs, meeting regulatory requirements, and meeting minimum standards of reliability and usefulness.
• Internal users primarily use discretionary information.
– The primary focus in producing this information is ensuring that benefits exceed costs, i.e., the information has positive value.

第一天考试
今天是我校第一天考试,当我到学校看到大多数的学生埋头苦读,有些得就谈天虽然书在眼前,有的一面读书,一面吃早餐,有些得就在发 白日梦好像还没有睡醒式的。今早可以看到很多各种各式的表情喔。
今天的考题还好,不是很难。今天是考Business Communication II。这科目是可说象我们在中学的英文科目但他比较深。当我做答时,可说大多数的问题我知道做答。希望我能够在这科拿到优等。
再 过三天,我才有考试,在这几天我可以好好的温习接下来的科目。加油!!!gAmbat3h !!!
