Question 1 Report

Departmental accounts are prepared to aid the comparison of the?
Answer Details
Departmental accounts are prepared to aid the comparison of the revenues, expenses, and profits of different departments within an organization. This helps management to identify which departments are performing well and which ones need improvement. By comparing the financial information of each department, managers can make more informed decisions about how to allocate resources, set goals, and evaluate performance. Therefore, departmental accounts are used to evaluate management performance rather than workers' performances or daily profits.
