Accounting Accounting is the art of recording, summarizing, reporting, and analyzing financial transactions.

Accountancy is the process of communicating financial information about a business entity to users such as shareholders, owners, partners and managers. The communication is generally in the form of financial statements that show in money terms the economic resources under the control of management; the art lies in selecting the information that is relevant to the user.

Financing Activities

Financing activities are transactions that are involved with financing the company and/or individual customer financing. Any transaction like a loan or anything bought on credit would be this type. Any monies paid on principle or interest paid would be considered a financing activity and would go in that section of the Statement of Cash Flows. Dividends paid to shareholders or the repurchase of stock would also be considered a financing activity.

Investing Activities

Investing transactions are those that are not part of daily operation of the company and are used solely for investing purposes. Small term investments would be considered obviously, but any loans made to customers or other entities would also be considered an investing transaction. Dividends and interest earned on investments would also qualify under the investing category for Statement of Cash Flows. Purchases of long term investments such as land, equipment or property will also be viewed as an investment.

Matching PrincipleAccountants follow a simple rule in recognizing expenses: “Let the expenses follow the revenues.” That is, expense recognition is tied to revenue recognition.

www.mba4help.com

Revenue Recognition Principle

The revenue recognition principle states that, under the accrual basis of accounting, you should only record revenue when an entity has substantially completed a revenue generation process; thus, you record revenue when it has been earned.

www.mba4help.com

Accrual vs. Cash

In accrual basis accounting, income is reported in the fiscal period it is earned, regardless of when it is received, and expenses are deducted in the fiscal period they are incurred, whether they are paid or not. In other words, using accrual basis accounting, you record both revenues and expenses when they occur. Use for all medium and larges businesses.

In cash basis accounting, revenues are recorded when cash is actually received and expenses are recorded when they are actually paid (no matter when they were actually invoiced). Mostly use by small businesses like mom and dad.

www.mba4help.com

Accrual vs Cash Under the accrual basis, companies record transactions that change a company's financial statements in the periods in which the events occur. recognize revenues when earned and recognizing expenses when incurred (rather than when paid). Follow GAAP

Under cash-basis accounting, companies record revenue when they receive cash. They record an expense when they pay out cash.

Accrual vs. Cash

Companies pay for some types of expenses after the services have been performed. Examples are employee salaries and commissions. Pioneer last paid salaries on October 26; the next payday is November 9. As the calendar

Why adjusting entries

A company must make adjusting entries every time it prepares financial statements.

It analyzes each account in the trial balance to determine whether it is complete and up-to-date.

Adjusting entries are needed to enable financial statements to conform to GAAP

www.mba4help.com

Adjusting Entries

1.

Some events are not recorded daily because it is not efficient to do so. For example, companies do not record the daily use of supplies or the earning of wages by employees.

2.

Some costs are not recorded during the accounting period because they expire with the passage of time rather than as a result of daily transactions. Examples are rent, insurance, and charges related to the use of equipment.

3.

Some items may be unrecorded. An example is a utility bill that the company will not receive until the next accounting period

The trial balance—the first summarization of the transactiondata may not contain up to date and complete data for the following reasons:

www.mba4help.com

Adjusting entries are classified as either deferrals or accruals

Deferrals are either prepaid expenses or unearned revenues. Companies make adjustments for deferrals to record the portion of the deferral that represents the expense incurred or the revenue earned in the current period.

Operating circleThe operating cycle of a merchandising company ordinarily is longer than that of a service company

www.mba4help.com

Merchandising Operations*

Merchandising companies that purchase and sell directly to consumers are called retailers. Merchandising companies that sell to retailers are known as wholesalers

www.mba4help.com

Costs for a merchandisingThe flow of costs for a merchandising company is as follows: Beginning inventory is added to the cost of goods purchased to arrive at cost of goods available for sale. Cost of goods available for sale is assigned to the cost of goods sold (goods sold this period) and ending inventory (goods to be sold in the future). Companies use one of two systems to account for inventory: a perpetual inventory system or a periodic inventory system.

Perpetual Inventory

In a perpetual inventory system, companies keep detailed records of the cost of each inventory purchase and sale. These records continuously—perpetually—show the inventory that should be on hand for every item

www.mba4help.com

Periodic InventoryIn a periodic inventory system, companies do not keep detailed inventory records of the goods on hand throughout the period. Instead, they determine the cost of goods sold only at the end of the accounting period—that is, periodically. At that point, the company takes a physical inventory count to determine the cost of goods on hand.

Cost of goods sold

*Amount charged to cost of goods sold depend on the inventory system.

There are three assumed cost flow methods: 1. First-in, first-out (FIFO) 2. Last-in, first-out (LIFO) 3. Average-cost

Determine the cost of goods sold

The accounting records of AGM show the following data. Beginning inventory 4,000 units at $ 3 Purchases 6,000 units at $ 4 Sales 7,000 units at $12

Determine the cost of goods available for sale, ending inventory units, and cost of goods sold during the period under:(a) the FIFO method, (b) the LIFO method, (c) the average-cost method.

www.mba4help.com

SolutionCost of goods available for sale = (4,000 × $3) + (6,000 × $4) = $36,000

Ending inventory = 10,000 - 7,000 = 3,000 units

(a) FIFO: $36,000 - (3,000 × $4) = $24,000 (b) LIFO: $36,000 - (3,000 × $3) = 27,000 (c) Average cost unit: [(4,000 @ $3) + (6,000 @ $4)] ÷ 10,000 = $3.60

Average-cost: $36,000 - (3,000 × $3.60) = $25,200
