The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Remember the Following Before Proceeding to the Next Slide!! the Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Remember the following before proceeding to the next slide!! The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • Up until now, we have been recording transactions to the Capital account in the Owner’s Equity section. • Here are a few examples of how the Capital account has been affected by these transactions: The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company performs a service ($3000) for a customer who pays cash. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company performs a service ($1000) for a customer on credit. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company pays the workers’ salaries (wages) with the use of cash (these salaries total $2200). • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company receives a phone bill ($150) that hasn’t been paid yet. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The owner withdraws cash ($1000) from the company for personal use. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • At the end of these transactions, the Capital account would look like the following: Looking at the Capital account above, one would have a good idea what occurred in the account, but could not be certain as to what transactions specifically happened without going back to the actual transaction details. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings In order to explain the Capital account, we will introduce different accounts that better explain the transactions that affect the capital account. Each of the new accounts reflects a particular kind of transaction that affects Owner’s Equity (or Capital). These accounts are called: I. Revenues II. Expenses III. Drawings The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Revenues: related to the sale of goods and services. Examples: Service Revenue, Fees Earned, Commissions Earned, Interest Revenue, Royalties Earned, etc. Since revenues increase the Capital account, their balance will be of a credit (CR) nature. Rules to follow when working with revenues: •Revenue represents an increase in equity (or capital). •An increase in capital requires a credit entry. •Therefore, the Revenue account is credited. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • Revenues The Revenue Recognition Convention The revenue recognition convention states that revenue must be recorded in the accounts (recognized) at the time the transaction is completed. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Expenses: costs related to the revenues. Examples: Advertising Expense, Utilities Expense, Wages Expense, Telephone Expense, Property Tax Expense, etc. Since expenses decrease the Capital account, their balance will be of a debit (DR) nature. Rules to follow when working with expenses: •Expense represents a decrease in equity. •A decrease in equity requires a debit entry. •Therefore, the Expense account is debited. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Drawings: the owner’s withdrawals of assets from the business for his/her own personal use. Since drawings decrease the Capital account, their balance will be of a debit (DR) nature. Rules to follow when working with drawings: •Drawings represent a decrease in equity. •A decrease in equity requires a debit entry. •Therefore, the Drawings account is debited. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings Purpose of expanding the system: • The accounts mentioned are created for one main purpose: to provide information for the equity section. • The information is needed by owners and managers to make sure the business is run profitably and to make sound business decisions. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • Here’s how the transactions from the beginning of this activity would have been analyzed with the use of the expanded ledger. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company performs a service ($3000) for a customer who pays cash. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company performs a service ($1000) for a customer on credit. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company pays the workers’ salaries (wages) with the use of cash (these salaries total $2200). • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The company receives a phone bill ($150) that hasn’t been paid yet. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • The owner withdraws $1000 cash from the company for personal use. • In this case, the accounts affected in the ledger would look like: Debits = Credits The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings • Here’s a comparison of the two methods: one without the expanded ledger, one with the expanded ledger. The Expanded Ledger: Revenue, Expense, and Drawings The debit and credit theory with the expanded ledger. Note: The only time that the “Capital” account will be used in transactions with the expanded ledger will be in the event that an investment is made by the owner. Chart of Accounts A chart of accounts is a list of the ledger accounts and their numbers arranged in ledger order. Each ledger account is given a number that corresponds to its category. Here is an example of a list of accounts and their numbers. The reason why there is an interval of five (5) units between each account is in the event of a new account needing to be placed in the chart of accounts. Notice the assets are placed in order of liquidity, the liabilities in order of payment and the revenues and expenses in alphabetical order. Equity accounts are numbered between 300-399 Assets are numbered between 100-199 Revenues are numbered between 400-499 Expenses are numbered Liabilities are between numbered 500-599 between 200-299 .

  • A73 Cash Basis Accounting
    World A73 Cash Basis Accounting Net Change with new Cash Basis Accounting program: The following table lists the enhancements that have been made to the Cash Basis Accounting program as of A7.3 cum 15 and A8.1 cum 6. CHANGE EXPLANATION AND BENEFIT Batch Type Previously cash basis batches were assigned a batch type of ‘G’. Now cash basis batches have a batch type of ‘CB’, making it easier to distinguish cash basis batches from general ledger batches. Batch Creation Previously, if creating cash basis entries for all eligible transactions, all cash basis entries would be created in one batch. Now cash basis entries will be in separate batches based on a one-to-one batch ratio with the originating AA ledger batch. For example, if cash basis entries were created from 5 separate AA ledger batches, there will be 5 resulting AZ ledger batches. This will make it simpler to track posting issues as well as alleviate problems inquiring on cash basis entries where there were potential duplicate document numbers/types within the same batch. Batch Number Previously cash basis batch numbers were unique in relation to the AA ledger batch that corresponded to the cash basis entries. Now the cash basis batch number will match the original AA ledger batch, making it easier to track and audit cash basis entries in relation to the originating transactions. Credit Note Prior to A7.3 cum 14/A8.1 cum 4, the option to assign a document type Reimbursement other than PA to the voucher generated for reimbursement did not exist.

  • General Ledger, Receivables Management, Payables Management, Sales Order Processing, Purchase Order Processing, and Invoicing
    Chapter 11: Revenue/Expense Deferrals setup Before you begin using Revenue/Expense Deferrals, you need to set the options you want to use for creating deferral transactions, such as the posting method used, and user access options. This information includes the following sections: • Revenue/Expense Deferrals overview • Deferral posting methods • Balance Sheet posting example • Profit and Loss posting example • Setting up revenue/expense deferrals • Selecting deferral warning options • Setting up a deferral profile • Setting access to a deferral profile Revenue/Expense Deferrals overview Revenue/Expense Deferrals simplifies deferring revenues or distributing expenses over a specified period. Revenue or expense entries can be made to future periods automatically from General Ledger, Receivables Management, Payables Management, Sales Order Processing, Purchase Order Processing, and Invoicing. If you use deferral transactions frequently, you can set up deferral profiles, which are templates of commonly deferred transactions. Using deferral profiles helps ensure that similar transactions are entered with the correct information. For example, if you routinely enter transactions for service contracts your company offers, and the revenue is recognized over a 12-month period, you could set up a deferral profile for these service contracts, specifying the accounts to be used, and the method for calculating how the deferred revenue is recognized. Deferral posting methods You can use two methods for posting the initial transactions and the deferral transactions: the Balance Sheet method, and the Profit and Loss method. Balance Sheet Using the Balance Sheet method, you’ll identify two posting accounts: a Balance Sheet deferral account to be used with the initial transaction for the deferred revenue or expense, and a Profit and Loss recognition account to be used with each period’s deferral transaction that recognizes the expense or revenue.

  • A Comparison of the Current Ratio and the Cash Conversion Cycle in Evaluating
    A Comparison of the Current Ratio and the Cash Conversion Cycle in Evaluating Working Capital Cash Flows By Costa John A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Business Administration California Coast University 2001 1 The Dissertation of Costa John is approved: ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ Committee Chairperson California Coast University 2001 2 Abstract of the Dissertation A Comparison of the Current Ratio and the Cash Conversion Cycle in Evaluating Working Capital Cash Flows By Costa John Doctor of Philosophy in Business Administration California Coast University 2001 The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the current ratio and the cash conversion cycle in evaluating working capital cash flows from a diagnostic and a predictive aspect. The author analyzed two case studies. Each company was reviewed over a five-year period. For each company the writer calculated the annual current ratio and the cash conversion cycle and examined the trends over the five-year periods under review. Results of these analyses indicated that the cash conversion cycle was more effective than the current ratio in diagnosing the health of each company’s working capital cash flows. The cash conversion cycle also signaled a change in liquidity earlier than the current ratio, suggesting that the former had more effective predictive capabilities than the latter. 3 The central implication of these findings is that the cash conversion cycle might be a more useful diagnostic and predictive tool than the current ratio in liquidity analysis. The research findings were also consistent with improvement or deterioration in each company’s underlying strategic performance as measured by critical changes in its competitive position at the same point in time as the cash conversion cycle trend shifted.

  • Luca Pacioli's Double-Entry System of Accounting
    Research Journal of Finance and Accounting www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1697 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2847 (Online) Vol.6, No.18, 2015 Luca Pacioli’s Double-Entry System of Accounting: A Critique. Adum Smith Ovunda Rivers State University of Science and Technology, P. M. B. 5080 Nkpolu Oroworukwo, Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Abstract What we know today as double entry bookkeeping is traceable to a man called Luca Pacioli, the author of the world’s first printed book-keeping treatise. As the origin of all subsequent book-keeping treatises throughout Europe, Luca Pacioli’s book-keeping tract is not only the source of modern accounting, but also ensured that the medieval Venetian method itself survived into our times. However, this study is aimed at critically examining the emergence of the double entry system of accounting by reviewing what past scholars and researchers have done in relation to the subject matter. This is to say that a comprehensive review of accounting literature in relation to double entry system of accounting was carried out to do justice to this study. And it was gathered that double entry bookkeeping existed amongst the early Italian merchants before Pacioli came into the scene. But the practice prior to the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries was rather crude because there were no formally documented principles to be followed. So the outburst of Pacioli in the fifteenth century recorded a landmark in the development of this all-embracing accounting system. The first ever published treatise about double entry bookkeeping was that of Luca Pacioli in his book titled “Summa de Arithmetica, Geometria, Proportioni et Proportionalita”.
