Welcome Back Atef Abuelaish 1 Welcome Back Time for Any Question Atef Abuelaish 2 CHAPTER # 01 REVIEW Atef Abuelaish 3 Chapter 01 Accounting in Business Importance of Accounting For example, the sale by Apple of an iPhone. C1 Keep a chronological log of transactions. Prepare reports such as financial statements. 5 Users of Financial Information Accounting is called the language of business because all organizations set up an accounting information system to communicate data to help people make better decisions. Accounting serves many users who can be divided into two groups: external users and internal users. C2 6 Opportunities in Accounting Accounting information is in all aspects of our lives. When we earn money, pay taxes, invest savings, budget earnings, and plan for the future, we use accounting. C2 7 NEED-TO-KNOW 1-1 Identify the following users of accounting information as either an (a) external or (b) internal user. Regulator CEO Shareholder Controller Executive Employee External Auditor Production Manager Nonexecutive Employee a) External user b) Internal user a) External user b) Internal user b) Internal user a) External user b) Internal user a) External user External users of accounting information are NOT directly involved in running the organization. Internal users of accounting information ARE directly involved in managing and operating an organization. 8 Ethics – A Key Concept The goal of accounting is to provide useful information for decisions. For information to be useful, it must be trusted. This demands ethics in accounting. Ethics are beliefs that distinguish right from wrong. They are accepted standards of good and bad behavior. C3 9 Fraud Triangle Three factors must exist for a person to commit fraud: opportunity, pressure, and rationalization. Envision a way to commit fraud with a low perceived risk of getting caught C3 Fails to see the criminal nature of the fraud or justifies the action Must have some pressure to commit fraud, like unpaid bills 10 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Financial accounting is governed by concepts and rules known as generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP aims to make information relevant, reliable, and comparable. Reliable information is trusted by users. Relevant information affects decisions of users. C4 Comparable information is helpful in contrasting organizations. 11 International Standards In today’s global economy, there is increased demand by external users for comparability in accounting reports. This demand often arises when companies wish to raise money from lenders and investors in different countries. International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) An independent group (consisting of individuals from many countries), issues International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Identify preferred accounting practices Differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS are decreasing as the FASB and IASB pursue a convergence process aimed to achieve a single set of accounting standards for global use. C4 12 Accounting Principles Measurement Principle (or Cost Principle) Accounting information is based on actual cost.; Actual cost is considered objective. Expense Recognition Principle (or Matching Principle) A company must record its expenses incurred to generate the revenue reported. C4 Revenue Recognition Principle 1. Recognize revenue when it is earned. 2. Proceeds need not be in cash. 3. Measure revenue by cash received plus cash value of items received. Full Disclosure Principle A company is required to report the details behind financial statements that would impact users’ decisions. 13 Accounting Assumptions Going-Concern Assumption Reflects assumption that the business will continue operating instead of being closed or sold. Monetary Unit Assumption Express transactions and events in monetary, or money, units. Business Entity Assumption Time Period Assumption Presumes that the life of a company can be divided into time periods, such as months and years. C4 A business is accounted for separately from other business entities, including its owner. 14 Proprietorship, Partnership, and Corporation A business entity can take one of three legal forms: proprietorship, partnership, or corporation Here are some of the major attributes of proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations: C4 15 Sarbanes–Oxley (SOX) Congress passed the Sarbanes–Oxley Act to help curb financial abuses at companies that issue their stock to the public. SOX requires that these public companies apply both accounting oversight and stringent internal controls. The desired results include more transparency, accountability, and truthfulness in reporting transactions. Here are some recent accounting scandals. C4 16 Transaction Analysis and the Accounting Equation The Accounting Equation Assets = Liabilities + Equity Expanded Accounting Equation: Equity Assets = Liabilities + Contributed Capital + Retained Earnings = Liabilities + Common Stock - Dividends + Revenues - Expenses A1 Net Income 17 NEED-TO-KNOW (1-3) Use the accounting equation to compute the missing financial statement amounts.

Return on assets = A2 Net income Average total assets 39 Business Activities and the Accounting Equation Three major types of business activities: 1) Financing activities provide the means organizations use to pay for resources such as land, buildings, and equipment to carry out plans. C5 Owner financing—resources contributed by the owner along with any income the owner leaves in the organization. Nonowner financing—resources contributed by creditors (lenders). Financial management —the task of planning how to obtain these resources and to set the right mix between owner and creditor financing. 40 Business Activities and the Accounting Equation Three major types of business activities: 2) Investing activities are the acquiring and disposing of resources (assets) that an organization uses to acquire and sell its products or services. Asset management—determining the amount and type of assets for operations. Assets—invested amounts. Liabilities—creditors’ claims. Equity—owner’s claim. C5 41 Business Activities and the Accounting Equation Three major types of business activities: 3) Operating activities involve using resources to research, develop, purchase, produce, distribute, and market products and services. Strategic management —the process of determining the right mix of operating activities for the type of organization, its plans, and its market.

A company’s size and diversity of operations affect the number of accounts needed. The chart of accounts is a list of all accounts and includes an identifying number for each account. C3 59 Define debits and credits and explain double-entry accounting. 60 Debits and Credits A T-account represents a ledger account and is a tool used to understand the effects of one or more transactions. C4 61 Double-Entry Accounting Assets C4 = Liabilities + Equity 62 Double-Entry Accounting Here is the expanded accounting equation showing the equity section. C4 63 Double-Entry Accounting An account balance is the difference between the increases and decreases in an account. Notice the T-Account.

List each account title and its amount (from ledger) in the trial balance. If an account has a zero balance, list it with a zero in the normal balance column (or omit it entirely). 2. Compute the total of debit balances and the total of credit balances. 3. Verify (prove) total debit balances equal total credit balances. P2 83 After processing its remaining transactions for December, FastForward’s Trial Balance is prepared. The trial balance lists all account balances in the general ledger. If the books are in balance, the total debits will equal the total credits. P2 84 Searching for and Correcting Errors If the trial balance does not balance, the error(s) must be found and corrected. Make sure the trial balance columns are correctly added. Re-compute each account balance in the ledger. Make sure account balances are correctly entered from the ledger. Verify that each journal entry is posted correctly. See if debit or credit accounts are mistakenly placed on the trial balance. Verify that each original journal entry has equal debits and credits.

Income statement — describes a company’s revenues and expenses along with the resulting net income or loss over a period of time due to earnings activities. 2. Statement of retained earnings— explains changes in the retained earnings from net income (or loss) and from any dividends declared over a period of time. 3. Balance sheet — describes a company’s financial position (types and amounts of assets, liabilities, and equity) at a point in time. 4. Statement of cash flows —identifies cash inflows (receipts) and cash outflows (payments) over a period of time. P3 90 1) Income Statement P3 91 2) Statement of Retained Earnings P3 92 3) Balance Sheet P3 93 Presentation Issues 1. Dollar signs are not used in journals and ledgers. 2. Dollar signs appear in financial statements and other reports such as trial balances. The usual practice is to put dollar signs beside only the first and last numbers in a column. 3. When amounts are entered in the journal, ledger, or trial balance, commas are optional to indicate thousands, millions, and so forth. 4. Commas are always used in financial statements. 5. Companies commonly round amounts in reports to the nearest dollar, or even to a higher level. P3 94 Global View Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS prepare the same four basic financial statements. A few differences are found within each statement, but over time these differences are likely to be eliminated. Here is a typical IFRS balance sheet presentation. 95 Global View Accounting systems depend on control procedures that assure the proper principles were applied in processing accounting information. The passage of SOX legislation strengthened U.S. control procedures in recent years. The percentage of employees in information technology that report observing specific types of misconduct in 2009. 96 Compute the debt ratio and describe its use in analyzing financial condition. 97 2) Debt Ratio Total Liabilities Debt Ratio = Total Assets Evaluates the level of debt risk. A higher ratio indicates that there is a greater probability that a company will not be able to pay its debt in the future. A2 98 Homework assignment Using Connect – 6 Questions for 60 Points.
