Accounting equation
Example: Oliver Beer begins a business by investing P7,000 of his own money. The accounting equation would be:

Assets = Equity
Cash 7,000 = Owner’s investment 7,000
If Oliver Beer then borrowed 5,000 from the bank to provide the business with additional cash, the accounting equation would be:

Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity


Cash 12,000 = Loan 5,000 +Owner’s investment
7,000 A L + O/E

Balance Sheet
• The assets of a business and the claims on these assets may be expressed in
the form of a Balance Sheet. The balance sheet is a general financial report. It
consists of a list of the assets owned by a business and a list of people who
have a claim on those assets at a given date.
• A balance sheet is an important report that an accountant draws up for the
owner or manager of a business.
• A balance sheet uses the ‘Duality Concept’ which states that total assets always
equals total equities (A= L +O/E).
• This means that for every transaction, the total debit always equals the total
credit and at least 2 accounts are affected.

A L + O/E
Further classification
• Assets and liabilities are further classified into current and non current.
• Current assets are assets that can be liquidated (converted into cash) within 12 months. Examples:
debtors, inventory, bank.
• Non current assets are assets that take longer than 12 months to be converted to cash. Examples:
vehicles, furniture, plant and equipment, investments, goodwill.
• Current liabilities are debts that must be repaid in less than 12 months. Examples: bank overdraft,
creditors.
• Non current (deferred) liabilities are debts that take longer than 12 months to repay. Examples:
Mortgage and other long term loans.
