1.5 Accounting Reports Balance Sheet The owner of a business has invested time, effort and capital into his/her business. He/she will be particularly interested in assessing the performance of the business, how the business is going, how profitable the business is over a given accounting period or period of time. The owner is also interested in the financial position of the business, does it have the ability to repay debts and to survive over the long term, that is, for many years. In order to assess the above, the owner/accountant prepares the following accounting reports: Balance Sheet Definition: The Balance Sheet is a formal accounting document, showing the assets, liabilities and equity of a business at a given date. It shows the financial structure of the business. Definition: An Asset is a resource controlled by the entity as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity. Assets for a business include cash, bank, accounts receivable, inventory, vehicles, machines, buildings, land. An asset is an item of value owned by the business. Definiton: A Liability is a present obligation of the entity arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the entity of resources embodying economic benefits.
A liability for a business would be: bank overdraft, accounts payable, short term loan, mortgage. A liability is what the business owes (must pay back) to other parties or businesses. Definition: Equity, is the residual interest in the entitys assets after deducting its liabilities. The capital account records increases in equity for a sole trader. The drawings account is debited when the owner takes money or goods for personal use.
Example: bank account, accounts receivable, inventory. Definition: Non-current assets are those assets which we expect to obtain a future economic benefit from for many accounting periods, usually many years. We do not expect to use up these assets or turn them into cash. We hold onto these assets and use them to earn income for the business. Example: vehicles, equipment, buildings, land.

Definition: Current liabilities are obligations must be met no more than twelve months after the reporting period.
They are amounts we owe and must repay in one year. Example: bank overdraft, accounts payable, short term loans. Definition: Non-current liabilities obligations that must be met more than twelve months after the reporting period. They are amounts we owe and must repay but we have longer than one year to repay them. Example: loan, mortgage.

2.1
A double entry system recognises the fact that each and every financial transaction will always affect at least two items in the final reports. Transaction: A transaction is a business event that is expressed in money terms. Cash Transaction: Money is paid when the transaction occurs. e.g. Sell equipment for $600 cash. Credit Transaction: Money is paid at a later date than the transaction. eg Sell equipment for $600 to Traders Ltd on credit.
Measurement: Transactions are usually measured using the Historical Cost Concept. Assets are recorded at their price at the time of acquisition, that is at their original purchase price. 2.2 The General Ledger
The systematic recording of transactions in a ledger of accounts is called the General Ledger. Accounts can be likened to separate note books in which we record changes that have affected assets, liabilities, equity, revenues or expenses. The entire group of accounts kept by a business is referred to as the 'ledger'. The purpose of keeping a ledger is to enable us to calculate, at any given point of time, the balance in each account which can be used to prepare the Income Statement and Balance Sheet.
Accounting
Page 12
Ledger accounts group together and summarise business transactions that affect a particular Income Statement or Balance Sheet item. The use of ledger accounts allows us to record (or process) many transactions quickly and efficiently before the preparation of accounting reports. For example, all transactions affecting the business bank account; cash coming in and going out of the business will be put into a ledger account called Bank.
2.4
A ledger, as we have noted, is made up of accounts. The number of accounts found in the ledger will depend on the size of the firm and the frequency and type of transactions. The larger the firm and the more frequent and varied the transactions the greater the number of accounts needed. The problem is that the larger the ledger, the harder it becomes to find accounts quickly. This can be solved by the use of some sort of index to accompany the ledger.
Features of the chart of accounts Each account has been classified into one of five main groups: Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Income and Expenses. These groups have each been assigned a particular number range, for example: Current Assets Non Current Assets Current Liabilities Non Current Liabilities Equity Income Expenses (100-199) (200-299) (300-399) (400-499) (500-599) (600-699) (700-799)
Due to the small number of income and expense accounts no attempt has been made to classify them further. They could, however, be grouped according to function, that is, distribution costs (700-719), vehicle expenses (720-739), administrative expenses (740-759), occupancy expenses (760-779), and finance costs (780-799).
Accounting
Page 13
The end result is that each specific account has been given an account number, for example accounts receivable is account number 120. This tells us two things: the accounts receivable account is a current asset because all current assets are numbered between 100 and 199 where the accounts receivable account is located in the ledger. The number itself is listed on the right side of the account.
Investment Assets 210 Term Deposit 220 Shares in XYZ Ltd Property Plant and Equipment 230 Motor vehicles 240 Equipment 250 Premises Intangible Assets 280 Goodwill 290 Patents 310 320 410 420 510 520 610 611 620 630 640 650 710 711 720 730 740 750 760 770 780 790 Accounts Payable Accrued Expenses Loan, ANZ Bank Mortgage Capital, F Turner Drawings Sales Revenue Sales Returns and Allowances Fees Revenue Interest Income Discount Received Commission Income Purchases Purchases Returns and Allowances Advertising Expense Commission Expense Office Salaries Expense Stationery Expense Telephone Expense Rates Expense Interest expense Discount Allowed
Current Liabilities 300 Non-current Liabilities 400 Equity 500 Income 600
Expenses 700

Ledger recording is based on a widely accepted set of rules. The left hand column of all ledger accounts is known as the DEBIT column and is abbreviated as DR. The right hand column of all ledger accounts is known as the CREDIT column and is abbreviated as CR. The ledger recording rules are derived (obtained) from the basic accounting equation:
A = L + EQ
It is commonly accepted that Assets increase on the debit side; that is, left hand side and decrease on the right hand side.
Changes in Liabilities must be recorded on the opposite side to assets, in order to keep the accounting equation in balance. Liabilities increase on the credit side and decrease on the debit side. Changes in Equity are recorded on the same side as Liabilities, again so the basic accounting equation remains in balance.
NOTE: - Each ledger entry and transaction must follow the above rules - For each transaction, the total value of debit side entries must equal the total value of credit side entries Following the above rules will ensure that for each transaction, our accounting equation remains in balance. This is essential for our double entry recording process to work properly and for the Balance Sheet to remain in balance.

Income Recognition
Income is the money earned by a business for selling goods or providing services, eg Sales, Fees. Income is increases in economic benefits during the accounting period in the form of inflows or enhancements of assets or decreases of liabilities that result in increases in equity, other than those relating to contributions from equity participants. Eg Sales Revenue, Fees Revenue Criteria for Income Recognition Income shall be recognised in the determination of the results for the reporting period, when and only when: It is probable that the inflow or other enhancement of assets or decreases in liabilities has occurred and An increases in future economic benefits related to an increase in an asset or decrease of a liability has arisen that can be can be measured with reliability.
3.2 Expense Recognition Expenses are the costs a business must pay in the process of earning income, eg wages. Expenses are decreases in economic benefits during the accounting period in the form of outflows or depletions of assets or incurrences of liabilities that result in decreases in equity, other than those relating to distributions to equity participants. e.g. wages expense.
Criteria for expense recognition Expenses shall be recognised in the determination of the result for the reporting period, when and only when: The decrease in equity must be probable. The consumption or loss of service potential or future economic benefits can be measured with reliability 3.3 Accrual Basis Accounting The Accrual Basis concept states that the effects of transactions and other events are recognized when they occur and are reported in the financial statements of the periods to which they relate. Income is recognized when it is earned and expenses are recognized when they are incurred whether or not cash has been received or paid. Profit = Income earned - Expenses incurred
An Income Statement is a financial statement that measures an accounting entitys financial performance over a specific accounting period. It informs the owner if the business has made a profit or loss.

Example: The Shiny Window Service is a business run by Chris Kleer. Chris advertises in the local press and most of the work is done for local firms. He receives enquiries via his car phone or his wife who works from home and maintains the accounts. Chris visits the proposed jobs and prepares quotes. If accepted, he then compiles an order for work to be done which is then authorised by his clients. He invoices* his clients when a job takes place. About 60% of his clients accept the 14 day credit terms he offers. Those who pay by cash immediately obtain a 5% discount and he issues receipts at this time. We can show the above in a flow diagram. Advertise
Enquiry made
Quotes given
Job accepted
Job completed
Invoice prepared
Money received
Receipt sent There are a number of possible revenue recognition points in this flow diagram. If we delay recording the job until cash is received then the cash method of recognition of a transaction is being used. However, if we are reasonably certain that payment will be received, then we would record the job at time of invoice preparation. If this was done then we would be using the accrual method of recognising a transaction.
* An invoice is the source document that provides the original record of a credit transaction. a. Invoices sent or issued record the amounts the customers owe to the business. According to the Accrual Basis concept, the income can now be recorded as it has been earned. Accounts Receivable account is debited to recognise an asset. b. Invoices received record amounts the business owes to others. For example, received an invoice for van repairs. According to the Accrual Basis concept, the expense can be recorded as it has been incurred. Accounts Payable account is credited to recognize a liability.

3.7.2 Complete Trading Statements from the following information for the month ended 28 February 20X1. Business A is done for you as an example. (Wilson p232) Business Sales Revenue Opening Inventory Purchases Expense Closing Inventory EXAMPLE: Business A Trading Statement for the month ended 28 February 20X1 $NZ $NZ Sales Revenue 360 000 Less Cost of Goods Sold Opening Inventory Plus Purchases Expense GOODS AVAILABLE FOR SALE Less Closing Inventory COST OF GOODS SOLD GROSS PROFIT 3.8 Analysing the Trading Statement There are three ways to analyse the Trading Statement: a. Gross Profit% Formula Gross Profit % = Example Business A: Gross Profit Net Sales Revenue x 100 1 A 360 000 20 000 340 000 35 000 B 224 000 65 000 150 000 55 000 C 300 000 85 000 80 000 55 000

x 100 1
This means that for every dollar of goods sold by the business, the business earns almost 10 cents Gross Profit. It is not possible to state whether 9.72% is satisfactory or not. It must be compared with the gross profit percentage of other firms in the same industry or other accounting periods. If the percentage remains constant between periods, there should be no cause for concern. If the percentage increases or decreases, the reason should be investigated. Possible causes for a change in Gross Profit % are: M Mark-up the business may have chosen to change the mark-up % I Inaccurate recording of closing inventory S Stealing of stock (Gross Profit% decreases) F Failure to take discounts (Gross Profit% decreases) I Inaccurate recording of credit sales T Theft of cash (Gross Profit% decreases) Possible suggestions for improvement are: 1 Improve inventory control 2 Investigate purchasing policy 3 Improve control of cash

The mark-up percentage represents the proportion of the cost price that is added to achieve the selling price. The type of business will determine the appropriateness of this percentage. Supermarkets can afford to have a low mark-up as their sales volume is sufficient to allow enough gross profit to be made to cover other expenses. A jeweller will have a high mark-up as it has a low inventory turnover. Expectation: The Mark- up % should remain unchanged from year to year. Causes for change: o The firm may have purchased goods that are difficult to sell because they are out-of-date. o Mark-downs required to solve overstocking. Suggestions for improvement: o Investigate purchasing policy. o Up skill purchasing personnel. c.Inventory Turnover Formula: Rate of Inventory Turnover Example Business A:
The inventory turnover shows how many times the inventory in the shop is sold (turned into cash) during the reporting period. The inventory turnover will differ according to the type of business activity the enterprise is engaged in. A bread shop will have a rate of inventory turnover of approximately 365 times a year whereas an antique shop may have an inventory turnover of only twice a year. When writing a report on the importance of trends in the rate of inventory turnover, it is helpful to determine the Inventory Turnover period. For example, to find out how many days on average it takes to sell the inventory for Business A, you would complete the following calculation: Formula: Days in the Inventory turnover period: Example Business A:
Note: The days in the inventory turnover period must always be rounded up to the next day. e.g. 20.01 days = 21 days.
Accounting
Page 38
Expectation: The rate of inventory turnover should remain constant or increase between accounting periods. The days in the inventory turnover period should decrease. Evidence for concern: A decreasing rate of inventory turnover or below normal for the type of business. Causes for concern: o Poor merchandising. o Insufficient advertising. o Too much competition. o Products do not meet customer requirements. o Overstocking. Suggestions for improvement: o Eliminate slow moving lines by having a sale with mark downs. o Improve staff efficiency. o Advertise. o Conduct market research. Costs of incorrect inventory turnover include:
Too high (Inventory Turnover) Lack of choice for customers Loss of sales Higher delivery costs
Too Low (Inventory Turnover) Extra storage costs Obsolete stock Items stolen Damaged stock Liquidity problems

3.9 Accounting for Sales Revenue and Purchases Returns When goods that are purchased are faulty, the consumer is able to return them. If the goods have been purchased or sold on credit, cash will not be refunded but a credit note will be issued. The credit note is a source document that authorizes a reduction in the amount owing by the customer. The following illustrations show the accounting treatment. Illustration 1 Sales Returns:

Introduction
The accounting process can be shown diagrammatically as follows: Transaction Document Journal Ledger Trial Balance Balance Sheet
Income Statement
Whenever a transaction takes place in business, a source document (or business document) is prepared to record the details of the transaction to ensure an accurate record is provided. Source documents are part of the accounting process because they are used to record information in the journals. Different journals are used for each category of transactions. All entries made in the journals are then transferred to or 'posted' using the rules of double entry accounting. From the ledger balances we can then construct a trial balance to prove the accuracy of our double entry in the ledger. Finally, from the trial balance we can prepare our financial reports, that is, an Income Statement and a Balance Sheet.
4.2
Source Documents
The most common source documents used for accounting recording purposes are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Receipt Invoice Credit Note Cheque/cheque butt Bank Statement
Source Documents should have at least two copies - the original sent to the supplier or customer and the copy retained by the business for future reference. The input of the accounting system should be in the form of consecutively pre-numbered multi-copied documents. Reasons for pre-numbered documents include:
The documents provide an audit trail to trace a transaction through the accounting system. It is easy to file and retrieve source documents. Any false documents can be identified. The customer has a number to quote when making enquiries. All documents can be accounted for.
Accounting

A journal is a book that collates and summarises information from similar source documents in date order. For example, The Cash Payments Journal summarises all cheques, the Sales Journal summarises all invoices issued to customers. There are two types of journals - specialised journals and general journals. A specialised journal groups large number of transactions into frequently used similar business events. All in all, there are six specialist journals. 1. Cash Receipts Journal, to record all cash received. Source document: Cash invoice, receipt, bank deposit form or bank statement. Cash Payment Journal, to record all cash paid. Source document: Cheque/butt, or bank statement. Note: Cash includes cheques. Sales Journal, to record sales of merchandise on credit. Source document: Invoice issued. Purchases Journal, to record purchases of merchandise on credit. document: Source document: Invoice received.

3. 4.
Those transactions which do not 'fit' into the special journals are entered into the General Journal.
4.4
General Journal
Transactions that do not occur frequently enough to warrant a special journal are recorded in the general journal from various source documents depending on the transaction. (eg. memos). Format of the General Journal: Date Particulars Folio Debit Credit
An important aspect of formatting in the journal is to ensure that the credit entry is indented in the particulars column.
The major types of general journals entries are: 1. Commencement of business 2. Contribution or withdrawal of assets other than cash by proprietor 3. Purchase of non-current assets on credit 4. Bad Debts written off 5. Interest Expense owing to a creditor 6. Interest Receivable from a debtor 7. Contra, or offsetting, entries 8. Adjusting and reversing entries 9. Doubtful debts 10. Depreciation of non-current assets 11. Inventory of an item (apart from merchandise) that requires adjustment 12. Disposal of a non-current asset 13. Closing entries 1-7 will be examined in this chapter. 8-13 will be examined in later chapters.

4.4.3 Contribution or withdrawal of assets other than cash by the owner Example:
Nov 11 The owner contributed an office desk to the business valued at $200. The owner withdrew tools with a value of $ 100 for personal use. The owner took goods home for private use. The business (a service firm) purchased the materials at a cost of $50.

4.4.6 Bad Debts Written Off Bad Debts are debts (accounts receivable) that will not be collected by the business. Example: On 6 January 20X1 Paula receives notification that one of her customers, B James has been declared bankrupt. The balance of B James account of $200 is to be written off. General Journal GJ6 20X1 Jan 6 Bad Debts Accounts Receivable B. James (For bad debts written off). 4.4.7 Contra, or Offsetting, Entries It may happen that a business may owe money to an accounts payable who at the same time is an accounts receivable of the business. If both parties agree it is possible to off set the lower balance against the larger balance. This is known as a contra, or offsetting entry. Example: Peters Traders is owed $70 by John Smith, for goods supplied. At the same time John Smith who is an electrician has provided services for $160. Both parties agree that the balances owing should be off set on 7 February 20X1. Peters Traders General Journal GJ81 20X1 Feb 7 Accounts Payable John Smith Accounts Receivable John Smith (Contra Entry) 70 70 200 200

Temporary equity accounts income, expense and drawings are opened to record the transactions that occur during the accounting period. At the end of each period income and expense accounts must be closed. Income and expense accounts are closed to the Income Summary account. Income Summary account is closed by transferring the final balance to the Capital account. A credit balance represents Profit while a debit balance represents a Loss. Finally when the Drawings account is closed to the Capital account, the ledger is ready to commence a new accounting period with only Asset, Liability and Equity accounts remaining open.

6.1 Concepts of Depreciation and Historical Cost What is Depreciation? Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset less its residual value over its useful life.
Formula: Depreciation = Historical Cost Estimated Residual Value Estimated Useful Life Depreciation is an expense for a particular accounting period. Depreciation must be shown in an Income Statement for an accounting period. Depreciation is not a cash payment and is not seen in the cash flow statement or cash budget. Depreciation does not provide funds (cash) to purchase a new asset. Important concepts, terms: What is allocation? (allocate) - To divide up and distribute, to apportion, to assign. What is residual value? The funds that the business will receive when the asset has finished its useful life in the business. It is also known as scrap value, salvage value, disposal value, or trade in value. What is Historical Cost of an Asset? Original purchase price of an asset plus any costs associated with getting the asset into a position and ready for use.
Example of historical cost: Machine cost Improvement to use machine Installation (put in) cost Insurance for the year How much is the historical cost of machine?
Why? $1000 has added to it $100 and $200 which are part of the historical cost and are capital expenditure. Insurance for the year $250 is recurring expenditure and NOT part of the historical cost.
Accounting
Page 63
Capital Expenditure Spending that benefits the business for many accounting periods. Revenue Expenditure - Expenditure, the benefit of which are used up on the current accounting period. Revenue expenditure is expenditure that must be made again in every accounting period.
6.2
Methods of Depreciation The first step in the calculation of depreciation is to change all GST inclusive amounts to GST exclusive.
GST is the abbreviation for Goods and Services Tax in New Zealand.
If the GST rate is 15% GST inclusive = GST exclusive x 1.15 GST exclusive = GST inclusive/1.15 Eg If equipment cost $17 250 GST inclusive, the Historical Cost to be allocated equals $15 000 i.e. $17 250/1.15 = $15 000
There are 3 major methods of calculating depreciation. The key for management is to select a method of depreciation that accurately reflects the pattern of service provided by the asset. a. Straight line method: Depreciation is calculated as a fixed percentage of cost each year. Eg.Equipment cost $12,000 and is to be depreciated at 10% per annum. The depreciation expense each year will be $1,200 The straight line method is used when the business expects to receive future economic benefits from the asset evenly over its useful life b. Reducing Balance Method: Depreciation is charged at a fixed percentage of the carrying amount each year. Carrying amount = Historical Cost Accumulated Depreciation
This method is most appropriate in situations where depreciation is greatest in the early years of an asset's life. Some property, plant and equipment are most efficient when new, and therefore contribute more and better services in the early years of useful life. In such case by using the reducing balance method costs will be better matched with income. Eg Motor Vehicles (cost) $200 000 Depreciate Motor Vehicles at 20% p.a. reducing balance Depreciation Expense: Year 1 $200 000 x 0.2 = $40 000 Year 2 ($200 000 - $40 000) x 0.2 = $32 000
Accounting
Page 64
c.
Units of use method: The units of use method of depreciation is used when the economic life of the asset is dependent on the amount of use made of it. IGNORE GST in this example For example, if a truck cost $55 000 with an estimated resale value of $5 000 at the end of 200 000 kilometres, when it will be dispose of, the depreciation charge per kilometre is 25 cents (i.e. $50 000 / 200 000). At the end of each year the depreciation charge would be determined by multiplying the kilometres travelled during the year by 25 cents. Formula $50 000 200 000 kilometres = 25 cents per kilometre If the truck travels 20 000 kilometres in the first year: 20 000 x 0.25 =$5 000 This method perhaps is the most accurate in applying the matching concept because if an asset lies idle for most of the accounting period then depreciation charge will be negligible.
6.3
Carrying amount = Historical Cost Accumulated Depreciation. If the asset is sold for less than its carrying amount, a loss on sale will occur. If the asset is sold for more than its carrying amount, a gain on sale will occur. For example: If the equipment is sold for $8,000 at the end of the third year, what is the loss on sale? If the equipment is sold for $8,500 at the end of the third year, what is the gain on sale?

Implicit Assumption: Periodicity Assumption: In order to provide timely information, it is assumed that the entitys economic activity can be divid ed into nominated time periods. This is evidenced in the accounts through the title, eg Income Statement for the year ended 31 March 20X1. This requires the preparer to determine which time period each transaction or event relates in order to resolve any difficult allocation problems. The periodicity assumption combined with the accrual basis concept gives rise to balance day adjustments.
7.3
Accrual Basis Concept: The effects of transactions and other events are recognised when they occur and are reported in the financial statements of the periods to which they relate. Accrued Expenses and Accrued Income accounts are created at balance day to comply with the Accrual Basis concept. Income and expenses often do not fit neatly into an accounting period but may cover parts of two accounting periods, therefore at the end of the accounting period it is necessary to adjust the income and expense accounts in the general ledger to include items which belong to the accounting period and to exclude items which belong to another accounting period. Balance day adjusting general journal entries will be written to take account of these items.
