  2. Learning Objective 1 Describe the nature of the adjusting process.

  3. LO 1 Nature of the Adjusting Process • The accounting period concept requires that revenues and expenses be reported in the proper period. • Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are reported on the income statement in the period in which they are earned.

  4. LO 1 Nature of the Adjusting Process • The accounting concept supporting the reporting of revenues when they are earned regardless of when cash is received is called the revenue recognition concept. • The accounting concept supporting reporting revenues and related expenses in the same period is called the matchingconcept, or matching principle.

  5. LO 1 Nature of the Adjusting Process • Under the cash basis of accounting, revenues and expenses are reported on the income statement in the period in which cash is received or paid. • Under the accrual basis of accounting, some of the accounts need updating at the end of the accounting period.

  6. LO 1 The Adjusting Process • The analysis and updating of accounts at the end of the period before the financial statements are prepared is called the adjusting process. • The journal entries that bring the accounts up to date at the end of the accounting period are called adjusting entries.

  7. LO 1 Types of Accounts Requiring Adjustment • Prepaid expenses are the advance payment of future expenses and are recorded as assets when cash is paid. • Unearned revenues are the advance receipt of futurerevenues and are recorded as liabilities when cash is received.

  8. LO 1 Types of Accounts Requiring Adjustment • Accrued revenues are unrecorded revenues that have been earned and for which cash has yet to be received. • Accrued expensesare unrecorded expenses that have been incurred and for which cash has not yet been paid.

  9. Learning Objective 2 Journalize entries for accounts requiring adjustment.

  10. LO 2 Prepaid Expenses NetSolutions’ Suppliesaccount has a balance of $2,000 on the unadjusted trial balance. Some of these supplies have been used. On December 31, a count reveals that the amount of supplies on hand is $760. Supplies (balance on trial balance) $2,000 Supplies on hand, December 31 – 760 Supplies used $1,240

  11. Accounting Equation Impact Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity (Expense) LO 2 Prepaid Expenses increase decrease

  12. Accounting Equation Impact Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity (Expense) LO 2 Prepaid Insurance The debit balance of $2,400 in NetSolutions’ Prepaid Insurance account represents the December 1 prepayment for 12 months. increase decrease

  13. LO 2 Unearned Revenues The credit balance of $360 in NetSolutions’ Unearned Rentaccount represents the receipt of three months’ rent on December 1 for December, January, and February. At the end of December, one month’s rent has been earned.

  14. Accounting Equation Impact Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity (Revenue) LO 2 Unearned Revenues increase decrease

  15. LO 2 Accrued Revenues NetSolutions signed an agreement with Danker Co. on December 15 to provide services at a rate of $20 per hour. As of December 31, NetSolutions had provided 25 hours of services. The revenue will be billed on January 15.

  16. Accounting Equation Impact Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity (Revenue) LO 2 Unearned Revenues increase increase

  17. LO 2 Accrued Wages NetSolutions pays it employees biweekly. During December, NetSolutions paid wages of $950 on December 13 and $1,200 on December 27. As of December 31, NetSolutions owes $250 of wages to employees for Monday and Tuesday, December 30 and 31.

  19. LO 2 Accrued Wages NetSolutions paid wages of $1,275 on January 10. This payment includes the $250 of accrued wages recorded on December 31.

  20. LO 2 Depreciation Expense • Fixed assets, orplant assets, are physical resources that are owned and used by a business and are permanent or have a long life. • As time passes, a fixed asset loses its ability to provide useful services. This decrease in usefulness is called depreciation.

  21. LO 2 Depreciation Expense • All fixed assets, except land, lose their usefulness and , thus, are said to depreciate. • As a fixed asset depreciates, a portion of its cost should be recorded as an expense. This periodic expense is called depreciation expense.

  22. LO 2 Depreciation Expense • The fixed asset account is not decreased (credited) when making the related adjusting entry. This is because both the original cost of a fixed asset and the depreciation recorded since its purchase are reported on the balance sheet. Instead, an account entitled Accumulated Depreciation is increased (credited).

  23. LO 2 Depreciation Expense • Normal titles for fixed asset accounts and their related contra asset accounts are as follows:

  24. LO 2 Depreciation Expense NetSolutions estimates the depreciation on its office equipment to be $50 for the month of December.

  25. Accounting Equation Impact Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity (Expense) LO 2 Depreciation Expense increase increase

  26. LO 2 Depreciation Expense • The difference between the original cost of the office equipment and the balance in the Accumulated Depreciation—Office Equipment account is called the book value of the asset (or net book value). It is computed as shown below. Book Value of Asset = Cost of the Asset – Accumulated Depreciation of Asset Book Value of Off. Equip. = Cost of Off. Equip. – Accum. Depre. of Office Equip. Book Value of Off. Equip. = $1,800 – $50 Book Value of Off. Equip. = $1,750
