STEP 1
I guess by admitting that each time I have to do a written assessment I become very nervous
and worried because it’s my second language and it’s hard for me to do it. I must say that it is
there to explain what I can learn from the author. To be honest reading the study guide and
books are essential because it really gives the necessary knowledge to give better advices in
the future to other people. When reading this study guide I have a better understanding of
what I should be doing because the author has already explained what is the key concept that
I need to know while reading this book.
INTRODUCTION
I found the introduction about the topic really interesting and I was really moved by the quote
that what listed in it that was: “Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the
same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo,
Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson and Albert Einstein”. I am always
surprised that whenever I tell people I am studying Accounting they tell me that I love
numbers or mathematics. Is Accounting only about numbers and mathematics?
By reading this 1.1 I got to know how the relationship between accounting and business. I am
just wondering is accounting degree enough to run a bigger business? There are different
types of business and I have already got some ideas about how it works and what are the
disadvantages and advantages of it because I have read about this in my previous term. As I
have been studying the accounting from by childhood I always thought that keeping records
is always important because I have my own shop where it was important to record all the
transaction. Time has changed so quickly I am surprised by the university that they gave you
to do written assessment while there were few pcs to type and you have to pay someone to
type it. I have come to know more about the typewriter and how it was helpful for accounting
in the past days in this paragraph. In this paragraph of 1.2 I have learned that how the digital
technology helped the business for booking keeping in systematic manner. Although having
said that it’s the digital age back in my country I have a friend that does accounting and I
asked him if he uses software. He said that they still use the old school writing in books. I
was surprised by hearing that. I questioned how messy the transaction and how hard will be
while finding the correcting the transaction in business company. I had some knowledge
about journal and ledger in my high school that journal contains daily transaction and ledger
contains transaction maintained in systematic accounts. In the proprietorship paragraph it has
shown the interrelation about the accounting equation on the business. the key concept is that
when the assets is increased the equity interest increase and when the liabilities is increased
then the equity interests decreases. As I am reading the paragraph 1.4 the first 3 paragraph

doesn’t seems new cause it’s the thing we have learned when we started learning
accountancy. The key concept is the accounting equation Assets=equity+ liabilities. To be
honest there isn’t that surprising key and concept here in this chapter 1 because I have already
read in the previous semester and high school and sounds really similar. but saying that this
chapter really goes in deep understanding about double entry bookkeeping and recording the
transaction.

that is AnaeCo. This company is located in Western Australia in Shenton park. The link for
the AnaeC0 website is http://www.anaeco.com . AnaecC0 has researched more than 15 years
and nearly $150M of investments, AneaC0 has developed an environmentally sustainable,
socially acceptable and economically viable technology that recycles 75% of household
waste into valuable resources. Doing the further research on AnaeCo I have found out that
key development history listed below :
1999: AnaeCo was founded and the AnaeCo™ System was invented
2013: Full commercial plant with 60,000tpa MSW capacity construction completed
When I first saw my assignment company I have no idea what it was about it. As I am not
from Australia I didn’t know much about the company in Australia when I opened the
website of the company that I was given I was really pleased to get that and I was really
intrested on learning more about the company. By seeing the financial report

I am surprised that the company is in deficit. Doing more research on it I found out that On
August 5 ANQ announced a deal - one year in negotiation - with Xiaoqing Environmental
Protection Technology Company, subject to shareholder approval, that will see it emerge with
55% of ANQ, Monadelphous will have 30% of AnaeCo, all debt will be forgiven and AnaeCo
will emerge with $4.1 million in liquid assets including cash and will be debt free. As I do
more research on the company I see that the company is going to an loss due to the large and
expensive factory machine in country. Every financial statement that I have seen its says it on
the loss which is shocking for the company. Every year they try to bring new equipment to
there plant but its not working and not making profit of it. I also had one problem why is
provisions on both current and non current liabilities? Its confusing to get that.
Jing Sun: https://jingsunsblog.wordpress.com although she has and English problem the way
she wrote it was really nice and I can see the time and effort she might have put on it. It felt
really good reading her blog and draft.

Step 5 :
Reading the first line in the chapter 2 really inspired by it. You have to learn the rules of the
game. And then you have to play better than anyone else. Albert Einstein. It reminds me the
workplace because it I don’t follow the rules and procedure your always bad and always get it
wrong. It also reminded me the word said by my manager “always follow the rules and
procedure”. First thing that came on my mind while reading 2.1 was I used to think why
would they even share their own financial statement to other?. I used to think like that
because my has a business and I never thought to share a financial statement to other person.
Its really amazing how. Since I am also studying financial accounting information I had to
study more about GAAP and AASB. Due to which it helps me lot to understand about it. I
am thinking why every business doesn’t comply all the accounting rules? Is it fair ? thinking
both way is correct so I can’t support one side. Paragraph 2.1 was revision for me for my
Financial accounting.
I must say that the first 2 paragraphs haves some bitter truth and it’s also inspiring how you
summed it up. I must agree that there is not every rule for everything. As saying that I am
little confuse on this part is it same as the commercial law where if there is no law for
everything and if there is new case and the punishment is sentenced then from that day all the
person gets the same punishment as the first one that made that. I mean if there is no rule for
that accounting and problem rises Does AASB makes the same rule for that problem to all
others or it might change?
I am really amazed that I am studying kind of same thing that I have read in last term. I am
thinking that all the data that they share is correct of is the data that they share is different for
outside people. At last I really loved how you explained quality of information it went
straight from account t science.
As you mentioned in chapter 3 the firm annual report is a marketing document I always
thought why would company share its financial statement to other? Would people use your
company statement in a negative ways?. I thought every balance date are always 30 June it’s
great to know that new Zealand have on 31st march. As you mentioned in Sec 3.1 balance
sheet have different form and different company uses different ways. When I was studying in
My country I was taught in T format balance sheet so when I came here in Australia it was
different format. As reading I thought parent company own 100% of equity but as reading I
was shock to know that there are investors in the parents company as well. By learning 3.1
and 3.2 it really helped me a lot for understanding my company spreadsheet. It has really
cleared my problems regarding the footnotes. while reading the financial statement about the
company. It’s really helped to recognize that there are two types of statement Consolidated
and consolidated company statement. By reading this it has really helped me understand more
about the financial reports of a company.

Step 5
I like reading your assignment and your
KCQs assignment is clear and easy to understand.
You have explained very well the changes
between last two financial statements.
Especially explained in details how the
company has significant changes in
different areas. You gave me a lots of very
specific information about what you learned
from the reading through your company’s
report. At the same time you point it all the
KCQs during your thinking. I think the
expression is clear to describe your
company’s financial situation, and your idea
is clear to show your deep understanding.

Feedback is really important because you get to know the what mistake you have done and
can correct your mistake. I really found the feedback helpful because in step 5 I didn’t see
that I have to do chapter 3 as well and in the feedback one student told me that I have missed
chap 3. Therefore I again looked the question again read the chapter and did that. It was really
interesting to hear different people ideas different creativity’s it was really great.
