ACCOUNTING: Accounting is an information system which provides information to its interested users making useful economic decision. Accounting= Asset + liability + owner equity +income +expense
This five things is all about accounting
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: In accounting there are five financial statements. These are:1. Statement of financial position/Balance sheet 2. Statement of comprehensive income/Income Statement 3. Statement of cash flow/Cash flow 4. Statement of change in owners equity/Change in equity 5. Note to the financial statement
Statement of financial position /Balance Sheet (Within Point of time) = Asset + liability + owner equity Statement of comprehensive income/Income Statement (Within Period of time) =Loss + Profit +Investment
Statement of cash flow/Cash flow= Operating + Investment +Financing Statement of change in owners equity/Change in equity = Earning Share BASIC ACCOUNTING EQUATION: The Accounting Equation Measures the resources of the business, and the various claims against those resources o Assets of the business - claims against the assets ASSETS= LIABILITIES(External claim) + OWER'S EQUITY(Internal / Insider claim) The basis for preparing the statement of financial position (Balance Sheet)
ELEMENTS OF THE ACCOUNTING EQUATION: Assets Liabilities Owners Equity Income Expenses All are parts of OE but shown separately Drawings The business activities (Transactions) one or more of these element, therefore also affect the financial statement. THE ACCOUNTING EQUATION ASSETS= LIABILITIES (External claim) + OWER'S EQUITY (Internal / Insider claim
The Equity section of the accounting equation can be expanded to analyze the effects of income (revenue) and expenses -determines net profit/loss for the period.
Reported on the Income Statement
Net profit/loss is than added to the entitys equity on the Balance Sheet.

DEFINATIONS: 1.ASSETS:- Resources having the following characteristics Expected future economic benefit Business has exclusive right of control of the benefit Arises from a past transaction or event Reliable monetary measurement You must be able to apply these characteristics to given items to determine whether they arc 'assets' of a business. Some assets are physical/tangible in nature (Inventory, Land, Vehicle) others are Intangible (legal rights. goodwill) 2. LIABILITIES: They are a current/ present obligation of the business, settlement of which normally results in an outflow of economic benefits from the business to An external Party The result from a past event The Basic concept of liabilities is a debt payable lo a party outside of the business - an external claim - usually for goods/service supplied, or loans made to the business. Include accounts payable, loans, accrued expenses or expenses payable, unearned revenue, mortgages, etc 3. OWNWRS EQUITY: It is known as equity or capital The owners net claim against the business assets. ASSET-LIABILITIES= OWNERS EQUITY The Components of Owners Equity: 1. The owners investment & withdrawals 2. The profit earned/Net income.(Revenue-Expense) Statement of Changes in OE for a sole trader: Balance of capital at start of period plus additional capital injections made by owner plus net profit for the Period (or minus net loss for the Period) minus drawings made by owner equals balance of capital at end of period. 4. REVENUE/INCOME: The purpose of business is to increase OE (to increase the owner's wealth). This is achieved through profitable trading and earning income that Increases economic benefits of the business Takes the form of asset inflows or enhancements; or decreases in liabilities. Result in an Increase in OE. 5. EXPENSE
Decrease economic benefits of business. Take the form of outflows/depletion of assets (such as cash), or incurrence of liabilities.
o They usually represent assets that have been used up during the period They cause the owner's equity to decrease Excludes distributions to the owners
The types of expenses incurred will also depend on the nature of the business. Examples includes: cost of goods, salaries and wages, insurance, electricity, postage, telephone, rent, advertising etc. 6. DRAWINGS Amounts taken from the business by the owner Usually for personal use Could be cash or other assets withdrawn The opposite of owner investments, so they reduce OE.

Identify the basic steps in the recording process. The basic steps in the recording process are: (a) Analyze each transaction for its effects on the accounts, (b) Enter the transaction information in a journal, (c) Transfer the journal information to the appropriate accounts in the ledger. Explain what a journal is and how it helps in the recording process. The initial accounting record of a transaction is entered in a journal before the data are entered in the accounts. A journal (a) discloses in one place the complete effects of a transaction, (b) Provides a chronological record of transactions, and (c) Prevents or locates errors because the debit and credit amounts for each entry can be easily compared.

JOURNALIZING Illustration 2-13 shows the technique of journalizing, using the first two transactions of Softbyte. On September 1, Ray Neal invested $15,000 cash in the business, and Softbyte purchased computer equipment for $7,000 cash. The number J1 indicates that these two entries are recorded on the first page of the journal. Illustration 2-13 shows the standard form of journal entries for these two transactions. (The boxed numbers correspond to explanations in the list below the illustration.)
The Ledger
The entire group of accounts maintained by a company is the ledger. The ledger keeps in one place all the information about changes in specific account balances. Companies may use various kinds of ledgers, but every company has a general ledger. A general ledger contains all the asset, liability, and owners equity accounts, as shown in Illustration

Chapter-3
Explain the accrual basis of accounting. Accrual-basis accounting means that companies record events that change a companys financial statements in the periods in which those events occur, rather than in the periods in which the company receives or pays cash. Explain the reasons for adjusting entries. Companies make adjusting entries at the end of an accounting period. Such entries ensure that companies record revenues in the period in which they are earned and that they recognize expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Prepare adjusting entries for deferrals. Deferrals are either prepaid expenses or unearned revenues. Companies make adjusting entries for deferrals to record the portion of the prepayment that represents the expense incurred or the revenue earned in the current accounting period. Prepare adjusting entries for accruals. Accruals are either accrued revenues or accrued expenses. Companies make adjusting entries for accruals to record revenues earned and expenses incurred in the current accounting period that have not been recognized through daily entries.
Adjusting Entries
Deferrals 1. Prepaid Expenses. Expenses paid in cash and recorded as assets before they are used or consumed. 2. Unearned Revenues. Cash received and recorded as liabilities before revenue is earned. Accruals 1. Accrued Revenues. Revenues earned but not yet received in cash or recorded. 2. Accrued Expenses. Expenses incurred but not yet paid in cash or recorded.
