Learning Objective 1

Differentiate between cash basis accounting and accrual basis accounting

Page 6: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Cash Basis vs. Accrual Basis Accounting

Cash basis accounting

• Revenue is recorded when cash is received

• Expenses are recorded when cash is paid

• Not allowed under GAAP

Accrual basis accounting

• Revenue is recorded when earned

• Expenses are recorded when incurred

• Used by most businesses

Learning Objective 2

Define and apply the time period concept, revenue recognition, and matching principles

Page 8: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

The Time Period Concept

• Time period concept • Business activities are sliced into small time

segments. • Financial statements can be prepared monthly,

quarterly, or annually.

• Fiscal year• Any 12-month accounting period• Often coincides with a calendar year

The Revenue Recognition Principle

• The revenue recognition principle dictates when to record revenue and the amount of revenue to record.– Record revenue when earned– May be different from cash collections– Revenue is based on the actual selling price of

the item or service.

Revenue should be recorded when it is EARNED.

A good has been delivered

or a service has been

performed.

The earnings

process is complete.

The Revenue Recognition Principle

Page 11: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

The Matching Principle

• The matching principle guides accounting for expenses. – Expenses are recorded when they are incurred

during the period.– Expenses are matched against the revenue of

the period.• For example, record rent expense for January against

January revenues, even if the rent was paid in December.

The unadjusted trial balance comes from the general ledger.

Adjustments are needed due to the

time period concept, the revenue

recognition principle, and the matching

principle.

Page 14: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Adjusting entries can be divided into two basic categories:

Deferrals1. Deferred expenses2. Deferred revenues

Accruals1. Accrued expenses2. Accrued revenues

Types of Adjusting Journal Entries

Page 15: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Deferred Expenses

• Deferred expenses are:• Advance payments of future expenses• Treated as assets until used• Recognized as an expense by an adjusting

journal entry when the prepayment is used

• Types of deferred expenses:• Prepaid rent• Office supplies• Depreciation

Prepaid Rent

Paying $3,000 for rent in advance gives us the right to use the property for three months.

3-16© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 17: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Prepaid Rent

To adjust the Prepaid Rent account on Dec. 31 , we need to reduce it by 1/3 since the company has used the space for one month.

On November 3, Smart Touch Learning purchased $500 of supplies on account. As of December 31, only $100 of supplies remain on hand.

Depreciation

• Plant assets:• Long-lived, tangible assets• Used in the operations of the business• Value and usefulness decline as the assets are

used

• Similar to deferred expenses:• Paid for when acquired• Used up over time• Usage is recorded as Depreciation Expense

Depreciation

Page 21: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Depreciation

• Depreciation is the allocation of a plant asset’s cost over its useful life.– All plant assets are depreciated, with the

exception of land.

• Residual value is the expected value of a depreciable asset at the end of its useful life.

• The straight-line method allocates an equal amount of depreciation each year.

3-21© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 22: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Depreciation

Using the straight-line method, Smart Touch Learning calculates $300 of depreciation for December.

3-22© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 23: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Depreciation

Recording the entry requires the use of two accounts: Depreciation Expense and Accumulated Depreciation.

3-23© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 24: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Depreciation

• The Accumulated Depreciation account is the sum of all depreciation expense recorded for the depreciable asset to date.– Accumulated Depreciation is a contra account;

therefore, the account balance is the opposite of the normal balance of the related asset account.

• The cost minus accumulated depreciation of a plant asset is called its book value.

Deferred Revenue

• Deferred revenue: – Occurs when a company receives cash before

it does the work or delivers a product– Is a liability because the business owes the

customer the product, the service, or a refund

• Upon performance or delivery, deferred revenue is converted to earned revenue.

Page 38: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

The Adjusted Trial Balance

• At the end of the fiscal period, an adjusted trial balance is prepared.– A summary of all accounts with adjusted

balances– The purpose is to ensure total debits equal

total credits

Journalize

adjusting entries

Post adjusti

ng entries

Prepare adjusted trial

balance

Page 39: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Page 41: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Impact of Adjusting Entries

valued

• Failing to record adjusting entries results in incorrect financial statements.– See Exhibit 3-6 for examples.

Learning Objective 7

Understand the alternative treatments of recording deferred expenses and deferred revenues (Appendix 3A)

3-46© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 47: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Alternative Treatment of Deferred Expenses

Rather than record the prepayment of an expense as a current asset, record the prepayment as an expense on the date of payment.

3-47© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 48: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Alternative Treatment of Deferred Expenses

At the end of the period, if any of the expense remains “unused,” then adjust some of it into the prepaid asset account.

The results are the same as with the traditional approach.

3-48© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 49: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Alternative Treatment of Deferred Revenues

Rather than record the early cash receipt from a customer as a current liability, record the cash receipt as a revenue on the date of receipt.

3-49© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.

Page 50: Nobles fin5 ppt_03

Alternative Treatment of Deferred Revenues

At the end of the period, an adjustment is made for the portion of revenue not earned in the period.

The results are the same as with the traditional approach.
