Intermediate+Financial+Accounting+I+-+Chapter+2+ S

This document provides an overview of key accounting concepts covered in Chapter 2 of Intermediate Financial Accounting, including the accounting equation, adjusting entries, financial statements, depreciation, and the closing process. The accounting equation is presented for both a sole proprietorship and corporation. Adjusting entries are made for prepaid expenses, accrued liabilities, and accrued revenues to comply with accounting principles. The four basic financial statements - income statement, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, and statement of shareholders' equity - are introduced. Depreciation expense is calculated using the straight-line method. The closing process closes temporary accounts to retained earnings at the end of the accounting period.
