  • Cash Versus Accrual Basis of Accounting: an Introduction
    Cash Versus Accrual Basis of Accounting: An Introduction Raj Gnanarajah Analyst in Financial Economics December 12, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43811 c11173008 . Cash Versus Accrual Basis of Accounting: An Introduction Summary This report introduces two general methods of accounting—the cash basis method and accrual basis method. The choice of accounting method determines the timing of the recognition of revenue and expenses. Under cash basis accounting, revenue and expenses are recorded when cash is actually paid or received. Under accrual basis accounting, revenue is recorded when it is earned and expenses are reported when they are incurred. Understanding the differences between these two accounting methods could be helpful to Congress as it considers reforming the tax system and changing the federal government’s financial reporting requirements. Currently with certain exceptions, the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) requires some companies with gross receipts in excess of $5 million to use accrual basis, instead of cash basis, of accounting to determine their tax liabilities. The IRC’s requirement to use the accrual method, arguably, ensures that revenue and the expenses incurred to generate that revenue are realized in the same year. Types of companies that may be excepted from using accrual basis of accounting for income taxes are sole proprietors and certain qualified personal service corporations (PSCs) in such fields as health, law, engineering, accounting, performing arts, and consulting firms, as well as farms that are not corporations or do not have a corporate partner. Some Members of Congress have put forth proposals to revise the circumstances under which certain companies are able to use cash method.

  • Your Association's Financial Statements: Knowing the Basis Of
    Your Association’s Financial Statements: Knowing the Basis of Accounting Homeowners and Boards receive association financial statements at various times during the year. For many, reading and understanding financial reports can be challenging. Understanding the basis of accounting used to prepare financial reports is a vital first step to understanding what you are looking at. Understanding if revenues are recorded only if earned in the current period, usually a month or a year, or if the revenues include receipts of amounts assessed for a previous or future period; and if expenses presented are for the current period only, or if they are for past or future periods is incredibly important. What if the financial statements show budgeted assessments of $200,000 for 2020, and actuals for 2020 are $260,000? What does that mean? What if budgeted expenses for the year total $150,000 but actual is only $100,000? What does that mean? Understanding your association’s basis of accounting is necessary to provide financial statements readers with a foundation of basic and useful knowledge. You may have heard the term Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The accrual method of accounting is the only GAAP-basis of accounting. The accrual basis is the only basis approved by the accounting standards setters. Other bases of accounting, known as “Other Comprehensive Bases of Accounting”, can create more complexity and lack of clarity and useful reporting. So, what are the choices? Some examples: Pure Cash Basis Financial statements presented using the pure cash basis only report transactions that affect cash and cash equivalents (money market accounts, certificates of deposit with maturities of 90 days or less).

This class is designed to give a general overview of fundamental accounting principles, concepts and terminology used in organizations. Slide 1A (Accounting 101 Index) The lessons in this course include General Accounting Overview and Fundamentals, Accounting Concepts and Methods, General Ledger Accounts and Account Structure, and the Accounting Cycle. Slide 2 (Lesson 1) Lesson 1: General Accounting Overview and Fundamentals Slide 3 (Accounting Overview) Accounting is the process used to identify, record and communicate finances and financial activities in businesses and organizations. Accounting is often referred to as the “language of business”. 1 Slide 4 (Accounting Overview) Accounting records and tracks financial transactions and business events showing what a business owns and what it owes others. Organizations analyze this information. Slide 5 (Accounting Overview) With the need to provide financial information to internal and external users, there becomes a logical division of accounting to help meet the needs of both types of users. Financial Accounting is concerned with providing financial information and reporting to users outside the organization. This is a diverse group and could include stockholders, government/tax authorities, customers, creditors and external auditors. Since this reporting is distributed outside of the organization for external use it is subject to certain guidelines and standards so all users can interpret information equally. 2 Slide 6 (Accounting Overview) The second division of accounting is Managerial Accounting which provides accounting information and reporting to internal users. Managerial accounting is especially important to an organization’s management team. The internal users could consist of managers, owners and even employees.

OPEN TRANSACTION TREATMENT 605 OPEN TRANSACTION TREATMENT FOR DEFERRED PAYMENT SALES AFTER THE INSTALLMENT SALES ACT OF 1980 Daniel S. Goldberg* When a taxpayer sells property for a promise of future payment, it is normally to his advantage to defer any gain realized on the sale. Section 453 of the Internal Revenue Code1 permits a seller of property in an installment sale to postpone recognition of gain until he has received payments from the purchaser, and then he need only recognize gain ratably as payments are received. In some instances, however, a seller may seek even greater deferral of gain than is provided by section 453 under so-called "open transaction" treatment.

  • Accounting Basis Definitions
    ACCOUNTING BASIS INTRODUCTION Each basis of accounting has a different purpose and different advantages. All three are required for compliance with various state laws and governmental accounting standards. Each basis builds on the prior, much like a two lane road can be expanded to become a divided four lane highway and then can be rebuilt to become an interstate – a road was there all along, but it now has a greater level of service for some (cross country drivers), but is more complicated for others (a farmer who needs to get equipment from field to field). Budget basis = Budget-to-actual statements Budget basis statements are the two lane road. This method has the basics - cash receipts and cash disbursements - and everyone is familiar with it. Appropriations are requested through the legislative process and spending is charged against the approved amounts. Under this basis, revenues are reported when cash is received. Expenditures are reported when cash disbursements are made. Modified accrual basis = Fund financial statements Modified accrual statements are the divided four lane highway. This method starts with the budget basis, then adds in certain items that have yet to be paid or received (hence the term ‘accrual’), but not all (hence the term ‘modified’). The state funds (Road, Highway, Aviation Trust, Railroad Expense Fund, etc.) are reported separately. Amounts that are payables and receivables at year-end are included to provide a more complete picture about the actual financial status of each fund than when compared to the budget basis. Under this basis, revenues are recorded as receivables if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal year, as established by the State of Missouri.
