  9. Accrual Basis Accounting AB113 Unit 4

  10. What is GAAP? AB113 Unit 4

  11. What Is GAAP? Inexpensive clothing store Oh wait, that’s GAP. :-) AB113 Unit 4

  12. What Is GAAP? Generally Accepted Accounting Principles AB113 Unit 4

  13. Why does GAAP require the use of accrual basis accounting rather than cash basis? AB113 Unit 4

  14. Why does GAAP require the use of accrual basis accounting rather than cash basis? Adjustments at end of period to follow several interrelated core accounting principles (some mentioned in Chapter 1) included in GAAP: AB113 Unit 4

  15. 1. Periodicity To make accounting information meaningful and comparable, we divide it into regular periods: months, quarters or years. In Renaissance Italy, by contrast, where people invented double-entry bookkeeping, a merchant often accounted for each sailing journey not in regular periods, but at the end, when the vessel returned from its journey. Our authors refer to periodicity as the accounting period concept. AB113 Unit 4

  16. Under the matching principle we match the benefits from the business (i.e. the revenues) to the period in which we earned them. We match the efforts of the business (i.e. expenses) to the benefits that the efforts earn. Where we can’t match an expense to a benefit we match the effort to the period in which we incurred it (such as when an oil company drills a dry hole). 2. Matching Principle AB113 Unit 4

  17. 3. Revenue Recognition In order to match revenue to the period in which we earned it, we record (accrue) revenue when we earn it rather than when the customer pays for it. If a customer purchases goods (or services) from the business on credit, for instance, we record, or recognize, the revenue at the time of the purchase, even if the customer pays in the next period. AB113 Unit 4

  18. Because the rest of AB113, and indeed most financial accounting in general, uses accrual based accounting, it’s criticalthat you understand the material in Chapter 3. AB113 Unit 4

  19. What are five general categories of accounts requiring adjusting entries at the end of a period? AB113 Unit 4

  20. What are five general categories of accounts requiring adjusting entries at the end of a period? 1. Prepaid Expenses (assets) 2. Unearned Revenues (liabilities) 3. Accrued Revenues (assets) 4. Accrued Expenses (liabilities) 5. Depreciation (an expense and a contra-asset account) AB113 Unit 4

  21. What Are Prepaid Expenses? AB113 Unit 4

  22. 1. Prepaid Expenses Pay in advance for an expense that benefits more than one period, debit an asset called Prepaid (Something) Expense. Example: pay 2 years’ worth of rent up front (perhaps to get a lower rate), debit the whole amount to Prepaid Rent. End of Year 1 adjustment : remove first year’s portion of the rent from Prepaid Rent and put it in Rent Expense. AB113 Unit 4

  23. 1. Prepaid Expenses, continued End of year adjusting entry transfers the first year’s rent from Prepaid Rent to Rent Expense. (since we’ve gotten the benefit of first year’s rent). A prepaid expense is an asset (because it has future value, in this case, the use of the building in the future). AB113 Unit 4

  24. What are Unearned Revenues? AB113 Unit 4

  25. 2. Unearned Revenues If you were accounting for the business that leased the building to the business in my example in number 1: Record the advance rent payment as a credit to Unearned Rent. End of the year adjustment : Transfer the first year’s portion from Unearned Rent to credit Rent (or Rent Revenue) AB113 Unit 4

  26. 2. Unearned Revenues, continued End of the year adjustment : Transfer the first year’s portion from Unearned Rent to credit Rent (or Rent Revenue) Unearned revenue is a liability (because it obligates us to something—in this case, to let the lessee use the building—in a future period). AB113 Unit 4

  27. What Are Accrued Revenues? AB113 Unit 4

  28. 3. Accrued Revenues Perform services or ship goods without getting paid yet: accrue the earned but unpaid revenue Unpaid lawyer’s fee: lawyer must accrue revenue. Adjustment: Add amount to Accounts Receivable and Fee Revenue (or Fees Earned, or just Fees) AB113 Unit 4

  29. 3. Accrued Revenues, continued Unpaid lawyer’s fee: lawyer must accrue revenue Adjustment: Add amount to Accounts Receivable and Fee Revenue (or Fees Earned, or just Fees) Accrued revenue is an asset (because it has future value—customer will pay later) AB113 Unit 4

  30. What Is An Accrued Expense? AB113 Unit 4

  31. 4. Accrued Expenses Receive goods or services without paying for them yet, accrue the incurred but unpaid expense. Example: End of year owe your employees for the work they’ve done since last pay day AB113 Unit 4

  32. 4. Accrued Expenses, continued Example: End of year owe your employees for the work they’ve done since the last pay day Accrue unpaid wages Adjustment: add amount to Wages Expense & Wages Payable AB113 Unit 4

  33. 4. Accrued Expenses, continued again :-) Accrue unpaid wages Adjustment: add amount to Wages Expense & Wages Payable Accrued expenses are liabilities (because they represent an obligation to pay in a future period) AB113 Unit 4

  34. What Is Depreciation? AB113 Unit 4

  35. 5. Depreciation Depreciation is the systematic and rational allocation of a portion of the cost of an asset to each period the asset benefits. AB113 Unit 4

  36. 5. Depreciation 2 Example: A delivery truck may benefit the company for 5 years. We don’t expense the whole truck in Year 1. We expense part of the cost in each of the 5 years of the truck’s life. AB113 Unit 4

  37. 5. Depreciation 3 Depreciation follows both the periodicity and matching principles. (They’re the same reasons we set up prepaid expenses as assets instead of expensing prepaid assets all in the year of payment.) We use depreciation for long-term assets like buildings and equipment. AB113 Unit 4

  38. 5. Depreciation 4 LAND Since land has an unlimited or indefinite useful life, we don’t depreciate it, but keep the cost as an asset. Exception: Use land for extractive industry, (oil & gas, coal mining, etc.): land declines in usefulness, we expense over estimated useful life: Depletion AB113 Unit 4

  39. 5. Depreciation 5 Chapter 7 (Unit 8) deals with depreciation (and depletion) For now the authors calculate it for you Adjustment for depreciation: + Depreciation Expense (-Equity) + Accumulated Depreciation (-Asset) AB113 Unit 4

  40. 5. Depreciation 6 Accumulated Depreciation is a contra-asset account. (Contra: opposite balance) Accumulated Depreciation is thus a negative asset account AB113 Unit 4

  41. 5. Depreciation 7 Depreciation is NOT an attempt to value the asset. We use depreciation merely to allocate the historical cost of the fixed asset to each of the years of income it helps produce AB113 Unit 4
