Yes, if you have any information the police might need to solve an investigation, then yes it is required. They will site you if they dfind out you have information that you're not telling them especially if it's the danger of others safety.
ADDITIONAL: In the case of a criminal offense: if you wish the offense recorded, investigated, and the perpetrator brought to justice you must first 'officially' notify law enforcement via a 'report.' If you are referring to a vehicle accident report - that may depend on where you live. Usually the motor vehicle laws require a report of any vehicular damage of more than a certain dollar-amount and ALWAYS in the case of any injury. Check your local laws to determine the dollar amount in your state.

Yes, of course. If you are liable for the damages you are required by law to cover the losses. Having a police report or not having a police report has no bearing on your liability and resulting financial responsibilities. Although most minor accidents do not merit a police report, the insurance companies recommend an accident report be filed whenever possible to document the occurrence and protect the drivers and the company from individuals who may later try to shirk their financial responsibilities. If you have insurance then your insurance company will cover the loss for you up to your policy limits. If you are uninsured then you are required to pay the damages yourself.
