Definitions of Accounting• “The process of identifying, measuring, and communicating

economic information to permit informed judgements and decisions by users of the information.”

—American Accounting Association (AAA)

• “A service activity whose function is to provide quantitative information, primarily financial in nature, about economic entities that is intended to be useful in making economic decisions.”

—American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA)

Primary Functions of Accounting• Recording data about business transactions- In the

Egyptian era they used a quill pen to record the data and stored it on papyrus scrolls. Today we might use a bar code and scan data into a computer system and store it on a magnetic disk.

• Summarizing results of business activity into useful report- The balance sheet and income statement have been standard reports for many years. More recently we added a statement of cash flows. However, managers in today's environment demand more detailed reports like sales by district or sales by product type.

•Providing assurances that the business is operating as intended and that the assets of the organization are protected- All parties to a business event have looked to accountants to provide assurance that the transaction is properly handled, accurately recorded, and accurately reported. Throughout most of this century the assurance has been based on a system of internal controls and an audit of the published financial statements.

Accounting as an Aid toDecision Making

Generally AcceptedAccounting Principles

• What is the primary objective of financial Accounting and Reporting?

Page 75: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

75

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

• If every accountant used his or her own rules for recording transactions, the financial statements would be useless in making comparisons.

• Therefore, accountants have agreed to apply a common set of measurement principles (a common language) to record information for financial statements. Otherwise, decision makers could not use or compare financial statements.

REGULATION OF THE ACCOUNTING PROFESSION

• Securities And Exchange Commission (SEC)

• Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)

• American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA)

Page 79: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

79

Standard Setting Bodies• In the United States, GAAP is set primarily

by the private sector with government oversight.

• In many other countries, such as France,

the government actually sets accounting standards.

Page 80: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

80

Standard Setting Bodies

• Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) - the agency designated by the U.S. Congress to hold the ultimate responsibility for authorizing GAAP for companies whose stock is held by the general investing public– The SEC has informally delegated the power to

make accounting rules to the FASB.

Page 81: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

81

Standard Setting Bodies

• Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) - responsible for establishing GAAP in the United States;– A private sector body consisting of seven full-

time members and a large support staff

Page 82: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

82

Standard Setting Bodies

• International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) - an organization representing over 143 accountancy boards from 104 countries that is developing a common set of accounting standards to be used throughout the world

Page 83: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

83

Standard Setting Bodies

• Interest in harmonizing accounting standards around the world by eliminating differences in accounting principles has grown.– Investors are committing more of their money

worldwide.• Many multinational companies voluntarily issue

their financial statements in conformity with the IASB standards.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

The Entity Concept

• An accounting entity is an organization that stands apart from other organizations and individuals as a separate economic unit.– The entity concept helps relate events to a

clearly defined area of accountability.

Page 87: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

87

The Entity Concept

An accounting entity is anorganization that stands apartas a separate economic unit.

Page 88: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

88

The Entity Concept Example

• Assume that John decides to open up a gas station and coffee shop.

• The gas station made Rs 250,000 in profits, while the coffee shop lost Rs 50,000.

Page 89: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

89

The Entity Concept Example

• How much money did John make?

• At a first glance, we would assume that John made Rs 200,000.

• However, by applying the entity concept we realize that the gas station made Rs 250,000 while the coffee shop lost Rs 50,000.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

The Going Concern Concept

Page 91: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

91

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

Going Concern Convention

• The assumption that in all ordinary situations an entity persists indefinitely– This notion implies that a company’s existing resources

will be used to fulfill the business needs of the company rather than be sold.

– If the continuity of an entity is in doubt, a liquidation approach to the balance sheet is taken, and the assets and liabilities are valued as if the entity were to be liquidated in the near future.

Page 92: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

92

•Record fixed assets at original cost and depreciate over a period of time.

•Take prepaid expenses as assets.

•Business is concerned with net income or earning capacity as compared to market values.

Page 93: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

93

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

Materiality Convention

• A financial statement item is material if its omission or misstatement would tend to mislead the reader of the financial statements under consideration– Materiality often depends on the size of the

organization – what is material to one company might not be material to another company.

Page 94: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

94

• AAA defines

“An item should be regarded as material if there is reason to believe that knowledge of it would influence the decision of informed investor”

• Disclose only material information.

• No overburdening with minute details

• Material information differs organization to organization year to year (change in depreciation method)

• Materiality may depend upon amount or may not

be.

Page 95: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

95

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and Basic Concepts

Convention of Conservatism:-

• “ Anticipate no profits but provide for all possible losses”

• Policy of ‘caution’ & ‘playing safe’

• Policy of safeguarding against possible losses in world of uncertainty

Page 96: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

96

Kobler defines :-

‘Conservatism’ as a guideline which chooses between

Recognition of Revenues

• Recognition - a test to determine whether revenues should be recorded in the financial statements for a given period

• To be recognized, revenue must be:– Earned - goods are delivered or a service is

performed– Realized - cash or a claim to cash (credit) is

received in exchange for goods or services

Page 111: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

111

The Matching Principle

• What is the matching principle?

• It is the basis for recording expenses.

• Expenses are the costs of assets and the increase in liabilities incurred in the earning of revenues.

• Expenses are recognized when the benefit from the expense is received.

Page 112: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

112

The Matching Principle

It is the basis for recordingexpenses and includes two steps:

Identify all the expenses incurredduring the accounting period.

Measure the expenses and matchexpenses against revenues earned.

Dual concept

• Accounting information is based on the double entry system.

• Under this system, the two-sided effect of a transaction is recorded in the appropriate accounts.

• The recording is done by means of a “debit-credit” convention (set of rules) applying to all accounts.

The Accounting Equation

Assets are the economic resourcesof a business that are expected toproduce a benefit in the future.

Liabilities are “outsider claims,”or economic obligations

payable to outsiders.

Owners’ equity represents the“insider claims” of a business.

The Reliability Concept

The quality of information that assures decision makers that the information captures the conditions or events it

purports to represent– Reliable data are supported by convincing

evidence that can be verified by independent parties.

– The impact of events should be measured in a systematic, reliable manner.

Double-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry AccountingDouble-Entry Accounting

“ Double-entry accounting is based on a

simple concept: each party in a business

transaction will receive something and give

something in return. In bookkeeping terms,

what is received is a debit and what is given

is a credit. The T account is a representation

of a scale or balance.”

The Double-Entry System

• Each transaction must still be analyzed to determine which accounts are involved, whether the accounts increase or decrease, and how much the balance will change.

The Double Entry SystemThe Double Entry System

Page 127: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

The Double-Entry system

• Some businesses enter into thousands of transactions daily or even hourly.– Accountants must carefully keep track of and

record these transactions in a systematic manner.

• Accountants use a double-entry accounting system in which at least two accounts are always affected by each transaction.

Ledger

Page 159: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

159

The Recording Process

• The process starts with source documents, which are the supporting original records of any transaction.– Examples are sales slips or invoices, check

stubs, purchase orders, receiving reports, and cash receipt slips.

Page 160: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

160

The Recording Process

• In the second step, an analysis of the transaction is placed in the book of original entry, which is a chronological record of how the transactions affect the balances of applicable accounts.– The most common example is the

general journal - a diary of all events (transactions) in an entity’s life.

Page 161: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

161

The Recording Process

• In the third step, transactions are entered into the ledger.– Remember that a transaction is not entered in

just one place; it must be entered in each account that it affects.

– Depending on the nature of the organization, analysis of the transactions could occur continuously or periodically.

Page 162: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

162

The Recording Process

• The fourth step includes the preparation of the trial balance, which is a simple listing of all accounts from the ledger with their balances.– Aids in verifying accuracy and

in preparing the financial statements– Prepared periodically as necessary

Page 163: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

163

The Recording Process

• In the final step, the financial statements are prepared.– Financial statements may be prepared after each

quarter of the year.– the companies may prepare

financial statements at various other intervals to meet the needs of their users.

Page 207: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

207

TRIAL BALANCE

• A listing of all accounts with balances at the end of the accounting period after all transactions have journalized and posted

• To determine that debits = credits

Page 208: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

208

• The purposes of the trial balance:– To help check on accuracy of posting by

proving whether the total debits equal the total credits

– To establish a convenient summary of balances in all accounts for the preparation of formal

financial statements

Page 209: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

209

the balance sheet accounts first, followed by the income statement accounts.

• An example of a trial balance:

Account (Rs)Number Account Title Debit Credit

100 Cash 3,50,000 3,50,000 130 Merchandise inventory 150,000 150,000 202 Note payable 100,000 100,000 300 Paid-in capital 400,000 400,000

500,000 500,000 ==================

===================

Page 210: 1 Accounting and Financial Management. 2 Introduction to Introduction to Accounting Accounting Accounting & Financial Management.

210

Locating Trial Balance Errors

• Note that a trial balance may balance even when errors were made in recording or posting.– A transaction may be recorded as different

amounts in two different accounts.– A transaction may be recorded in a wrong account.

• In both situations, the total debits will still equal total credits on the trial balance.
