  • Basic Bookkeeping and Reimbursable Services
    Basic Bookkeeping and Reimbursable Services Introduction to bookkeeping Bookkeeping is involved in the recording of a company’s transactions. The preferred method of bookkeeping is the double-entry method. This means that every transaction will be documented at least two ways. For example, if a company borrows $10,000 from its bank… 1. An increase of $10,000 must be recorded in the company’s Cash account, and 2. An increase of $10,000 must be recorded in the company’s Loans Payable account. The accounts containing the transactions are located in the company’s general ledger. A simple list of the general ledger accounts is known as the chart of accounts. Prior to inexpensive computers and software, small businesses manually recorded its transactions in journals. Next, the amounts in the journals were posted to the accounts in the general ledger. Today, software has greatly reduced the journalizing and posting. For example, when today’s software is used to prepare a sales invoice, it will automatically record the two or more effects into the general ledger accounts. The software is also able to report an enormous amount of additional information ranging from the detail for each customer to the company’s financial statements. Accounts General ledger accounts are used for sorting and storing the company’s transactions. Examples of accounts include Cash, Account Receivable, Accounts Payable, Loans Payable, Advertising Expense, Reimbursable Services Received, Interest Expense, and perhaps hundreds or thousands more. The amounts in the company’s general ledger accounts will be used to prepare a company’s financial statements such as its balance sheet and income statement.

  • Chapter 3 CT 1. A. If Inventory Is Purchased with Cash, Then There Is
    Chapter 3 CT 1. a. If inventory is purchased with cash, then there is no change in the current ratio. If inventory is purchased on credit, then there is a decrease in the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. b. Reducing accounts payable with cash increases the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. c. Reducing short-term debt with cash increases the current ratio if it was initially greater than 1.0. d. As long-term debt approaches maturity, the principal repayment and the remaining interest expense become current liabilities. Thus, if debt is paid off with cash, the current ratio increases if it was initially greater than 1.0. If the debt has not yet become a current liability, then paying it off will reduce the current ratio since current liabilities are not affected. e. Reduction of accounts receivables and an increase in cash leaves the current ratio unchanged. f. Inventory sold at cost reduces inventory and raises cash, so the current ratio is unchanged. g. Inventory sold for a profit raises cash in excess of the inventory recorded at cost, so the current ratio increases. 3. A current ratio of 0.50 means that the firm has twice as much in current liabilities as it does in current assets; the firm potentially has poor liquidity. If pressed by its short-term creditors and suppliers for immediate payment, the firm might have a difficult time meeting its obligations. A current ratio of 1.50 means the firm has 50% more current assets than it does current liabilities.

  • Chapter 2 Current Liabilities and Contingencies
    Chapter 2 Current Liabilities and Contingencies CURRENT LIABILITIES What is a liability? The question, “What is a liability?” is not easy to answer. For example, one might ask whether preferred stock is a liability or an ownership claim. The first reaction is to say that preferred stock is in fact an ownership claim and should be reported as part of stockholders’ equity. In fact, preferred stock has many elements of debt as well. The issuer (and in some cases the holder) often has the right to call the stock within a specific period of time—making it similar to a repayment of principal. The dividend is in many cases almost guaranteed (cumulative provision)—making it look like interest. And preferred stock is but one of many financial instruments that are difficult to classify. To help resolve some of these controversies, the FASB, as part of its conceptual framework project, defined liabilities as “probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations of a particular entity to transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the future as a result of past transactions or events.” In other words, a liability has three essential characteristics: It is a present obligation that entails settlement by probable future transfer or use of cash, goods, or services. It is an unavoidable obligation. The transaction or other event creating the obligation has already occurred. Because liabilities involve future disbursements of assets or services, one of their most important features is the date on which they are payable. Currently maturing obligations must be satisfied promptly and in the ordinary course of business if operations are to be continued.

  • When to Debit and Credit in Accounting
    When to Debit and Credit in Accounting Journal entries show a firm’s transactions throughout a period of time; for example, when a company purchases supplies a journal entry will show the amount of supplies bought and money spent. According to the practice of double-entry accounting, every journal entry must: • Include at least two distinct accounts with at least one debit and one credit. • Have the total monetary amount of debits equal to the total monetary amount of credits. • Be consistent with the accounting equation, Assets = Liabilities + Equity. (Wild, Shaw, and Chiappetta, 55) An asset is loosely defined as a resource with economic value that a particular firm has, and includes accounts such as cash, accounts receivable, and office supplies. Liabilities are the debts and obligations a company accumulates in operating the business; it includes accounts such as accounts payable, wages payable, and interest payable. Equity represents the amount of ownership in an asset that is not financed through debt. Equity begins with the owner’s capital, which are personal investments of assets by the owner, and grows as revenues are accrued over the course of business operations. Equity shrinks when the owner withdrawals capital and/or expenses are incurred. Thus the accounting equation, Assets = Liabilities + Equity, can be roughly translated as, “things we have are backed by things we owe and things we own.” A chart of accounts, which list commonly used accounts and their type, is included as an appendix in most accounting text books. The following diagram depicts the accounting equation such that equity is broken down into the component accounts of Capital, Withdrawals, Revenue, and Expenses, and illustrates how each type of account reacts to debits and credits.
