!efinitions
1&1& Incomeor the purposes of this module! income is defined as one0 t)at )as $een adewithin the time period of the statement. It is an important accounting concept tocorrectly account for income within the time period of the financial statement. Thismeans that you should include in your income calculation money that you have madebut not yet received. or eample! if you were a trader and sold goods but had notyet received the money because you had given your customer some credit termsyou should nonetheless include the sale as income for the period! even if thecustomer only pays you after the end of the period.
1&2& '%penditureor the purposes of this module! ependiture is defined as t)e #osts t)at )ave $eenin#urredwithin the time period of the statement. %s with the concept of income! youshould accrue for ependitures incurred within the time-period even if you have notpaid for them. If! for eample! you were doing a household income and ependiturestatement for the end of #eptember and you had not received your water and lightsbill nor paid it for #eptember! you should nonetheless include it or a reasonableestimate in the income and ependiture statement for #eptember. This ensures thatyou have an accurate statement of the real ependitures incurred within the period.
%t the end of the income and ependiture statement! you subtract penditure fromIncome and the remaining portion is what an enterprise would call (rofit. Ifependitures were more than Income! the negative difference is what an enterprisewould call

2&3& The Concept of an Asset
%ssets are things that the business o"ns. They can ta/e the form of ied %ssets!which are the things used in the production of income! li/e office furniture ande2uipment! motor vehicles! tools and machinery! or software on the computers! or=urrent %ssets. =urrent assets are generally short-term collectibles and can be
li2uidated within a period of less than 3 months. Eebtors! cash in ban/! fied depositsand suchli/e! all comprise the company?s current assets.
"ote that particularly these days! fied assets need not be physical assets. Thespecial section of intellectual property laws allows that patents! copyrights! researchand development and suchli/e are regarded as intellectual assets! and as such donot have a physical presence! but do have a real value to the business.
%n important implication of ied %ssets is that the value of the asset is written downover a period of years through the calculation of the mechanism called dereciation.Eepreciation is charged to the income statement as an epense. or eample! theAeceiver of Aevenue allows that motor vehicles may be written down over a 4-yearperiod. That means that the value of the car is charged to the income statement overfour years. It is beyond the scope of this module to eamine the compleities ofdepreciation in detail! but it is important for you to /now that the value of ied %ssetsdecreases with time through the calculation of depreciation.
