“TOPIC: Ledger and its Description of Account titles & Accounting Elements - Liabilities”

Liabilities are classified into current and non-current.

Current liabilities are those debts or obligations reasonably expected to be liquidated in the normal
course of the enterprise’s operating cycle or paid within a period of one year by the use of current
assets or the creation of other current liabilities. The following are examples of current liabilities:

1. Accounts payable to trade creditors for purchase of goods or services on credit supported by the
oral or implied promise of the business. Note Payable is a liability supported by a promissory
note issued by the business to the creditor.
2. Loan payable is a liability to pay a bank or a financing institution for amount of money borrowed
by the business.
3. Utilities payable – is a liability to pay water, telephone, electricity received from the company
that provides it.
4. Other Payables – this includes Interest Payable which represents additional charge and
obligation to pay for interest – bearing promissory notes issued by the business and Salaries
payable which represents obligations to pay employees for services received from them and
Taxes payable which are obligations due to the government for sales, earnings, gain and value of
property owned/sold by the business.

Noncurrent liabilities are long term liabilities or obligations which are payable longer than one year
such:

1. Notes Payable which is issued to the creditor and evidenced by a promissory note.
2. Mortgage Payable which is an obligation secured by the real property of the business.
3. Bond Payable which is a long term promise usually from five to ten or twenty years supported
by a formal contract containing the face value of the bond, the interest rate, the interest
payment date and the maturity date.

“TOPIC: The Basic Accounting Equation”

The accounting Equation

The assets, liabilities and owner’s equity are always expressed in an equation:

Asset = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity

To Illustrate: assume Cherry Solvina invested P 2,000,000 in a laundry shop. The accounting equation
will show:

Asset = Owner's Equity


Cash 2,000,000 Soriano, Capital 2,000,000
The above equation means that the business has assets in cash amounting to P 2,000,000 and that
Soriano has a right over it. To illustrate further assume Soriano purchase a machine worth 50,000 on
account. The accounting equation will change:
Asset = Liabilities + Owner's Equity
The
Cash 2,000,000 Accounts Payable 50,000 Soriano, Capital 2,000,000
accounting equation could be stated another way to emphasize the residual interest over the owner
over the assets of the business.

Assets – Liabilities = Owner’s Equity

Illustrative Problem:

Bubble tea for life situated at Dau, Mabalacat City started its operation on January 10, 2020. The
owner Aina Doctolero, invested cash of P 20,000, and equipment of P 48,000. The following are the
additional transactions for January.

Jan 5. Bought Furniture and fixtures worth P 6,000 on account.


7. Bought a chiller worth P 20,000. Terms: 50% down, and balance on account.
8. Hired a helper on commission basis, based on 10% of sales, to clean the chiller.
10. An emergency prompted Ms. Aina to withdraw P 1, 500 cash for personal use.
15. Bought supplies costing P 3,000 and paid cash.
20. The account of January 5 is due. Ms. Aina paid this from her personal cash.
30. The account of January 7 is due. Issued a 60 – day promissory note for this.

The illustrated problem simply show the accounting process to start up a business. Once the business is
ready to operate, revenues will be earned and expenses will be incurred resulting in either net profit or
net loss. Please see the complete illustration of the problem:
