Introduction to Accounting

Presented by Kevin Markle August, 2004

Purpose To teach the basics of accounting to those students entering the MBA program at SSB who do not have any background in accounting. To prepare all MBA students for the mandatory course, ACTG 5100 Financial Accounting for Managers, by providing the fundamental concepts on which the course builds.

Introduction to Accounting

Intended audience All incoming MBA students at The Schulich School of Business.
In particular, this lecture is designed for those that have no previous education or training in accounting. The intention is for this lecture to teach at the most basic level.
To teach the alphabet of accounting so that students can learn to speak in full sentences in the accounting (and other) courses at SSB. Students with even minimal background may wish to skim or skip sections of the lecture.

Fundamental concepts The Accounting Cycle Financial statements Comprehensive example

Introduction to Accounting

Fundamental concepts What is accounting? The language of business. A means to communicate financial information. A way to convey information about a business to users.

Introduction to Accounting

Fundamental concepts Who uses accounting information? Owners Managers Investors (including potential)
Analysts on their behalf

Creditors (including potential) Government (tax assessment) Regulators Customers


Introduction to Accounting 6

Fundamental concepts Accounting has two main divisions: Financial accounting


Primarily prepared for users external to the company.
Revenues, earnings, assets, etc.

Management accounting
Primarily for internal purposes
Costing, budgeting, net present value, etc.

This lecture will focus only on financial accounting.


Introduction to Accounting 7

Fundamental concepts There are several ways that cash gets into a company: Investment by owners Investment by creditors (loans) Payments from customers. Repayment of amounts loaned to other entities. Return on investments (interest and dividend) Proceeds from selling assets.
Introduction to Accounting 8

Fundamental concepts
These can be organized into three categories: Operations Payments from customers Refunds from suppliers Financing Investment by owners Investment by creditors (loans) Investing Return on investments (interest and dividend) Proceeds from selling assets Repayment of amounts loaned to other entities
Introduction to Accounting 9

Fundamental concepts
Similarly, money going out of an entity can be categorized: Operations Payments to suppliers Refunds to customers Financing Payment of dividends or capital to owners Repayment of creditors Investing Purchase of assets Amounts invested in other entities (debt or equity)
Introduction to Accounting 10

Fundamental concepts Financial accounting categorizes all transactions and events based on their substance.
It is very important that the substance of a transaction be accurately reflected by financial accounting because the users of the information are using it with the assumption that these categorizations are being made accurately.
If money invested by owners was reported as revenue, this would be counter to the fundamental definition of revenue (i.e. that it results from the operations of the company).

The separation of income and capital is a fundamental concept of financial accounting.


Introduction to Accounting 11

Fundamental concepts Entity concept Going concern Unit of measure Periodic reporting

Introduction to Accounting

12

Fundamental concepts
Entity concept There are three basic structures that a company can have in Canada:
1. 2. 3.

Sole proprietorship Partnership Corporation A sole proprietorship is not a legal entity separate from its owner A partnership is not a legal entity separate from its owners
These are both sub-components of their owners/partners for legal purposes

A corporation is a separate legal entity

The entity concept for accounting does not simply follow the legal guidelines
A business can be a separate entity for accounting even if it is not one from a legal perspective
Introduction to Accounting 13

Fundamental concepts Entity concept It is essential that we know for which entity we are accounting because it will determine if and how events are recorded.
e.g. If Ms. Prop is the sole proprietor of a business called SP, there is one legal entity, Ms. Prop (SP is not a separate legal entity).
If we wish to account for SP, there will be events to account for that are non-events from a legal perspective
e.g. When Ms. Prop puts money into a separate account for the company. This is a non-event legally, but is an event to be accounted for from an accounting perspective.
Introduction to Accounting 14

Fundamental concepts Going concern It is assumed that an entity will complete its current plans, use its existing assets, and meet its obligations in the normal course of business.
This is an underlying concept necessary for many of the fundamental recording and reporting decisions that are made in accounting.

Introduction to Accounting

15

Fundamental concepts Unit of measure In order for accounting to present information that is useful, it must be able to express things in a common unit of measure. The unit of measure in Canada is usually the Canadian dollar (or U.S. dollar).
It is not useful to tell users that an entity has 30 cars, a building, some land, some equipment, and that it sold 35,000 widgets in the year. The unit of measure concept allows us to express all of these things in dollars.
Introduction to Accounting 16

Fundamental concepts Periodic reporting Meaningful financial information about an entity can be provided for periods of time that are shorter than the life of an entity.
Because financial statements tell the users what the entity has and what they did to get it, the users want that information at different points in the entitys life. Most commonly, the reporting period is annual. All companies are required to file annual financial statements with their tax returns.
Other common reporting periods are monthly or quarterly.

The Accounting Cycle


1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Transaction or event occurs Recorded in the Journal using a Journal Entry. Journal is posted to Ledger Ledger accounts are totalled. Financial statements are prepared.

It is important to note that the decision-making of accounting occurs at step 2 Journal entry.
Steps 3 5 are mechanical exercises.

Therefore, the decisions made when making the journal entry (i.e. translating to accounting language) are very important as they determine what will ultimately be presented on the financial statements. contd on next slide
Introduction to Accounting 20

The Accounting Cycle


The making of decisions about what journal entry should be made when a transaction or event occurs is the prominent theme of ACTG 5100.
It is commonly believed that these decisions are bound by strict rules that dictate what the journal entry should be.
In reality, this is not true. There are principles that can guide the decisions, but there are many circumstances for which there are not specific treatments prescribed and, therefore, the judgment of the preparers determines the treatment.

For the purposes of this lecture, we will look mostly at non-ambiguous situations.
Students will become very aware of the ambiguity in the real world in ACTG 5100 (and from reading the newspaper).
Introduction to Accounting 21

Accounting Equation Fundamental Accounting Equation:

Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity


This equation is always in balance In order for this equation to remain in balance, double-entry bookkeeping is employed.
That is, the recording of every transaction or event must have at least two parts
Either an equal impact (increase or decrease) to both sides of the equation or equal and opposite impact to one side.

The recording of every transaction must keep this equation in balance


Introduction to Accounting

22

Journal Entries All journal entries have two sides: Debit and Credit
For every journal entry, the total debits must equal the total credits
This ensures that the fundamental accounting equation (A = L + OE) is always in balance.

The basic journal entry: Debit Account name1 Credit Account name2 To record
Introduction to Accounting

$amount $amount
23

Journal Entries Debit and Credit are just accountingspeak for increase and decrease
Debit means increase for some elements and decrease for other elements. Likewise for credit.
For example, a company pays its $500 utility bill:
In English: the company has incurred an expense (the amount of expense has increased) and the amount of cash in the company has decreased. An expense (Utilities) has increased An asset (Cash) has decreased In Journal entry:

Debit Utility expense $500 Credit Cash $500 To record the payment of utility bill
Introduction to Accounting 24

Journal Entries How do we know whether to debit or credit?


Convention exists based on what element is being increased or decreased.
Each element lives in either debit or credit. If we want to increase something that lives in debit, we will debit it.

The convention works such that the fundamental equation (A = L + OE) is always kept in balance.

Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity Debit Credit Credit

Introduction to Accounting

30

What about the Income Statement elements (Revenue and Expense)? They dont appear in the fundamental accounting equation, so how does it stay in balance when they are debited or credited? e.g. consultant sells services for $300 cash
In English: Cash (asset) increases $300 In Accounting:

Journal Entries

Revenue increases $300 $300 $300

Debit Cash (Asset) Credit Consulting Revenue

To record payment for consulting services rendered

Assets have increased. Liabilities and Owners Equity appear to be unchanged. Is A = L + OE not true (i.e. out of balance)?

Element structures

Capital stock (direct investment) Retained earnings (indirect investment)
Revenue Expenses (Dividends)

Although revenue and expenses are not subpieces of Retained earnings the way Current assets are a sub-piece of Total assets, for the purposes of understanding how they fit in to the equation, this representation is helpful.
Introduction to Accounting 36

Element structures
The balance sheet is a permanent statement
Its accounts accumulate information from the entitys beginning.
The amounts presented on the balance sheet are aggregated from the entitys beginning to the balance sheet date.

The income statement is a temporary statement


Its accounts are temporary accounts
They accumulate information for a period and then are reset to zero to begin tracking information for the next period.
The amounts presented on the income statement are aggregated from the beginning of the period to the end of the period only.

Introduction to Accounting

37

The Closing Entry Whenever financial statements are to be prepared, the temporary (income statement) accounts must be closed to zero so that they can begin tracking data for the next period.

Element structures

The amounts in the accounts at closing are transferred to Retained Earnings (so named because it is the earnings (net income) of the company that is retained in the company and not distributed to the owners).
We will see an example in the comprehensive example.

Introduction to Accounting

38

Element structures
The Closing Entry The result of the closing entry is that all impacts on Revenue and Expenses (the temporary accounts) are indirectly impacts on Retained earnings (a permanent account).
That is how A = L + OE stays in balance.
The temporary accounts are sub-pieces of OE.

Financial Statements
There are 4 statements in a standard set of financial statements
1.

Balance Sheet
The what do we have? statement Shows what the entity owns and owes (the difference being the owners residual interest)

1.

Income Statement
The what did we do? statement Shows the activity the entity undertook in its normal course of operations.

1.

Statement of Retained Earnings


Shows the changes in Retained earnings in the year
Often shown at the bottom of the Income Statement

1.

Statement of Cash Flows


Shows the sources and uses of cash in the year
Information is derived from the B/S and I/S and other
Introduction to Accounting 41

Financial Statements Statement of Cash Flows Contains information about how cash came into and left the entity in the period.
Does not contain new information
i.e. the SCF is derived from the Balance Sheet and Income Statement (with some supplementary information)

The SCF will not be covered in this lecture. It is covered in ACTG 5100.

Accounting Methods
Cash Accounting Revenue is recorded when cash is received. Expense is recorded when cash is disbursed.
Very straightforward. Facts determine the timing of entries. Less room for judgment.

Accrual Accounting Revenue is recorded (recognized) when the revenue has been earned.
When the product or service has been provided to the customer, regardless of when payment is received.

Expenses are matched to the revenue that they helped to earn, regardless of when payment is made.
Introduction to Accounting 62

Accounting Methods It is possible for cash receipt to coincide with revenue recognition and cash payment to coincide with expense recognition. However, in business in North America (and, indeed globally), it is the norm for the exchange of cash to either precede or follow the actual economic event. Except in the simplest of entities (e.g. an individual person) or in unique circumstances, cash accounting will not yield useful information.
Accrual accounting is the standard method.
Introduction to Accounting 63

Accrual Accounting
2 kinds of entries
1. Transactional

The recording of an exchange with another entity Required only when financial statements are prepared to adjust accounts to where they should be Always include at least one Balance Sheet account and one Income Statement account.

1. Adjusting

e.g. Depreciation of capital assets, earning of interest revenue.

Introduction to Accounting

64

Journal Entries
Journal Entries Usually one side (the Debit or the Credit) will be obvious from the transaction (e.g. when cash is received, cash (an asset) increases. The Debit has to be to cash). It is the determination of the other side of the entry that requires thought and judgment.

Introduction to Accounting

65

Journal Entries
It is best to reason logically:
1. 1.

Which financial statement should be impacted?

Balance sheet, Income statement, or Stmt of Retained Earnings?

Which element on that statement should be impacted? 2. Which specific account should be impacted?
Assets Current assets Cash Accts receivable Long-term assets Building Land Liabilities Current liabilities Accts payable Long-term liabilities Bank loan Owners Equity Direct investment Capital stock Indirect investment Dividends (debit) Retained earnings Revenue (credit) Expense (debit)

We will account for a company, Tasman Inc., for its first year of operations. Tasman Inc. is a Pizza business that makes and delivers pizza in the Toronto area. It is 100% owned by Dave, who is also active in the business as its manager. Tasman Inc. is a corporation (a legal entity separate from Dave). The company begins on January 1, 2003. Its fiscal year end is December 31. We will prepare a Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2003 and an Income Statement and Statement of Retained Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Example Tasman Inc. Our approach We will be given several transactions and events and will process them one at a time, carrying them all the way to the financial statements.
This approach will reinforce the impact of each event on the financial statements as a whole.

We will then go back and do the mechanical steps that get us from journal entries to financial statements.
This will show the accounting cycle in its entirety.

The Accounting Cycle


1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Transaction or event occurs Recorded in the Journal using a Journal Entry. Journal is posted to Ledger Ledger accounts are totalled. Financial statements are prepared.

We have done step 2 (journal entries). Step 3 is most easily done using a spreadsheet (Friedlan text provides a template).
We will use the old-fashioned method known as Taccounts.
Each account is represented by a T. All debits are posted on the left, all credits are posted on the right. Spreadsheets have made this practice virtually obsolete, but it is informative to do it to help understand the fundamentals.
