Cash
• Most liquid asset.
• Standard medium of exchange.
• Basis for measuring and accounting for all other items.
• Current asset.
• Examples: Coin, currency, available funds on deposit at the
bank, money orders, certified checks, cashier’s checks,
personal checks, bank drafts and savings accounts.

Companies segregate restricted cash from “regular” cash.
Examples, restricted for:
1) plant expansion,
2) retirement of long-term debt, and
3) compensating balances.

Bank Overdrafts
Company writes a check for more than the amount in its cash
account.
• Generally reported as a current liability.
• Included as a component of cash if such overdrafts are
repayable on demand and are an integral part of a company’s
cash management (such as the common practice of establishing
offsetting arrangements against other accounts at the same
bank).

Recognition of Accounts Receivables


• Accounts receivable generally arise as part of a revenue
arrangement.
• The revenue recognition principle indicates that a
company should recognize revenue when it satisfies its
performance obligation by transferring the good or
service to the customer.

LO 2 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 14

Recognition of Accounts Receivables


Example
For example, if Lululemon Athletica, Inc. (CAN) sells a yoga
outfit to Jennifer Burian for $100 on account, the yoga outfit is
transferred when Jennifer obtains control of this outfit. When
this change in control occurs, Lululemon should recognize an
account receivable and sales revenue. Lululemon makes the
following entry:

LO 2 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 15

Key Indicators of Change in Control


Some key indicators that Lululemon has transferred and that
Jennifer has obtained control of the yoga outfit.
1. Lululemon has the right to payment from the customer.
2. Lululemon has passed legal title to the customer.
3. Lululemon has transferred physical possession of the goods.
4. Lululemon no longer has significant risks and rewards of
ownership of the goods.
5. Jennifer has accepted the asset. Đã nhận tài sản

Measurement of the Transaction Price


The transaction price is the amount of consideration that a company
expects to receive from a customer in exchange for transferring
goods or services.
Variable Consideration
In some cases, the price of a good or service is dependent on future
events. These future events often include such items as discounts,
returns and allowances (trả lại tiền và chiết khấu), rebates (hoàn
tiền), and performance bonuses (tiền do hiệu suất làm việc).

LO 2 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 17

• Avoid frequent changes in

• Alter prices for different

Variable Consideration
Sales Returns and Allowances
• Sales Returns and Allowances are estimated at the time of
sale and credited to a Return Liability account.
• Sales Revenue is reduced by the estimated amount of
returns.
• The use of the Return Liability account helps to identify
potential problems associated with inferior merchandise,
inefficiencies in filling orders, and delivery or shipment
mistakes.
• If actual returns later prove to be higher or lower than the
estimated amount, Sales Revenue is adjusted.

LO 2 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 21

Sales Returns and Allowances Example (1 of 2)


Illustration: Assume that Max Glass sells hurricane glass to Oliver
Builders. As part of the sales agreement, Max includes a provision
that if Oliver is dissatisfied with the product, Max will grant an
allowance on the sales price or agree to take the product back. Max
should record the accounts receivable and related revenue at the
amount of consideration expected to be received.
On January 4, 2022, Max sells $5,000 of hurricane glass to Oliver
on account. Max expects that $400 of the hurricane glasses will be
returned. Max records the sale on account as follows. January 4,

to Oliver because some of the hurricane glass is defective. The
entry to record this transaction is as follows. January 15, 2022
Return Liability 300
Accounts Receivable 300

Max reports net sales revenue on the income statement of $4,600. In


addition, Max reports on its statement of financial position the total accounts
receivable balance of $4,700 ($5,000 - $300) and an estimated return
liability of $100 ($400 - $300).

LO 2 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 23

Variable Consideration
Time Value of Money
• Theoretically, any revenue after the period of sale is interest
revenue.
• Companies ignore interest revenue related to accounts receivable
because the amount of the discount is not usually material in
relation to the net income for the period.
• The profession specifically excludes from present value
considerations “receivables arising from transactions with
customers in the normal course of business which are due in
customary trade terms not exceeding approximately one year.”

Learning Objective 3
Explain accounting issues related to
valuation of accounts receivable.

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 25


Valuation of Accounts Receivable
Uncollectible
• Accounts Receivable
• Record credit losses as debits to Bad Debt Expense (or
Uncollectible Accounts Expense).
Normal and necessary risk of doing business on credit.
Two methods to account for uncollectible accounts:
1) Direct write-off method
2) Allowance method

3/26/2024

Direct Write-Off Method vs. Allowance


Method

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 27

Direct Write-Off Method for


Uncollectible Accounts
When a company determines a particular account to be
uncollectible, it charges the loss to Bad Debt Expense.
Assume, for example, that on December 10, 2022, Cruz Ltd.
writes off as uncollectible Yusado’s NT$8,000,000 balance.
The entry is:
Bad Debt Expense
Accounts Receivable (Yusado)

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 28

14
3/26/2024

Allowance Method for Uncollectible


Accounts
• Involves estimating uncollectible accounts at the end of each
period.
• Ensures that companies state receivables on the statement of
financial position at their cash realizable value.
• Companies estimate uncollectible accounts and cash
realizable value using information about past and current
events as well as forecasts of future collectability.

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 29

Recording Estimated Uncollectibles


Illustration: Assume that Brown Furniture in 2022, its first year of
operations, has credit sales of £1,800,000. Of this amount,
£150,000 remains uncollected at December 31. The credit manager
estimates that £10,000 of these sales will be uncollectible. The
adjusting entry to record the estimated uncollectibles (assuming a
zero balance in the allowance account) is:
Bad Debt Expense
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

accounts receivable at the statement date.

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 31

Recording the Write-Off of an


Uncollectible Account
• When companies have exhausted all means of collecting a
past-due account and collection appears impossible, the
company should write off the account.
• In the credit card industry, for example, it is standard practice
to write off accounts that are 210 days past due.

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 32

Write-Off of an Uncollectible Account


Illustration: The financial vice president of Brown Furniture
authorizes a write-off of the £1,000 balance owed by Randall plc
on March 1, 2023. The entry to record the write-off is:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 1.000


Accounts Receivable 1.000

LO 3 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 33

Recovery of an Uncollectible Account


Assume that on July 1, Randall plc pays the £1,000 amount that
Brown had written off on March 1. These are the entries:

Accounts Receivable 1,000

In a bargained transaction entered into at arm’s length, the stated
interest rate is presumed to be fair unless:
1. No interest rate is stated, or
2. Stated interest rate is unreasonable, or
3. Face amount of the note is materially different from the o
current cash sales price or o from the current market value of the
debt instrument.

Notes for Property, Goods, or Services


Example
Illustration: Oasis Development Co. sold a corner lot to Rusty
Pelican as a restaurant site. Oasis accepted in exchange a five-year
note having a maturity value of $35,247 and no stated interest rate.
The land originally cost Oasis $14,000. At the date of sale the land
had a fair market value of $20,000. Oasis uses the fair market value
of the land, $20,000, as the present value of the note. Oasis therefore
records the sale as:
Notes Receivable 20,000
Land 14,000

Additional Issues Related to Receivables


Derecognition of Receivables
1. When the receivable no longer has any value; that is, the
contractual rights to the cash flows of the receivable no
longer exist.
2. When a company transfers (e.g., sells) a receivable to
another company, thereby transferring the risks and rewards
of ownership to this other company.

LO 5 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 59

Derecognition of Receivables
Transfer of Receivables
Various reasons for transfer of receivables to another party
• Accelerate the receipt of cash.
• Competition.
• Sell receivables because money is tight.
• Billing / collection are time-consuming and costly. Transfer
of receivables for cash happens in two ways:
1. Sales of receivables.
2. Secured borrowing.

Sales of Receivables

ILLUSTRATION 7.14

Factors are finance companies or banks that buy receivables from


businesses for a fee.
LO 5 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 61

Sales of Receivables
Sale without Guarantee
• Purchaser assumes risk of collection and absorbs any credit
losses.
• Transfer is outright sale of receivable.
• Seller records loss on sale.
• Seller uses a Due from Factor (receivable) account to cover
probable sales discounts, sales returns, and sales allowances.

LO 5 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 62

Sale without Guarantee Example


Illustration: Crest Textiles, Inc. factors €500,000 of accounts receivable with
Commercial Factors, Inc., on a non-guarantee basis. Commercial Factors
assesses a finance charge of 3 percent of the amount of accounts receivable
and retains an amount equal to 5 percent of the accounts receivable (for
probable adjustments). Crest Textiles and Commercial Factors make the
following journal entries for the receivables transferred without guarantee.

ILLUSTRATION 7.15

LO 5 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 63

Secured Borrowing
A company often uses receivables as collateral in a borrowing
transaction.
Illustration: On March 1, 2022, Meng Mills, Inc. provides
(assigns) NT$700,000 of its accounts receivable to Sino Bank
as collateral for a NT$500,000 note. Meng Mills continues to
collect the accounts receivable; the account debtors are not
notified of the arrangement. Sino Bank assesses a finance
charge of 1 percent of the accounts receivable and interest on
the note of 12 percent. Meng Mills makes monthly payments to
the bank for all cash it collects on the receivables.

Presentation and Analysis


General rules in classifying receivables are:
1. Segregate and report carrying amounts of different categories of receivables.
2. Indicate receivables classified as current and non-current in the statement of
financial position.
3. Appropriately offset the valuation accounts for receivables that are impaired,
including a discussion of individual and collectively determined impairments.
4. Disclose the fair value of receivables in such a way that permits them to be
compared with their carrying amount.
5. Disclose information to assess the credit risk inherent in the receivables.
6. Disclose any receivables pledged as collateral.
7. Disclose all significant concentrations of credit risk arising from receivables.

1. Establish proper controls to prevent any unauthorized
transactions by officers or employees.
2. Provide information necessary to properly manage cash on
hand and cash transactions.

Physical Protection of Cash Balances


Company should
• Minimize the cash on hand.
• Only have on hand petty cash and current day’s receipts.
• Keep funds in a vault, safe, or locked cash drawer.
• Transmit each day’s receipts to the bank as soon as
practicable.
• Periodically prove the balance shown in the general ledger.

Reconciliation of Bank Balances Example


To illustrate, Nugget Mining Company’s books show a cash balance at the Denver National Bank on November 30,
2022, of $20,502. The bank statement covering the month of November shows an ending balance of $22,190. An
examination of Nugget’s accounting records and November bank statement identified the following reconciling items.
1. A deposit of $3,680 that Nugget mailed November 30 does not appear on the bank statement.
2. Checks written in November but not charged to the November bank statement are:

Check #7327 $. 150


#7348 4,820
#7349 31
3. Nugget has not yet recorded the $600 of interest collected by the bank November 20 on Sequoia Co. bonds held
by the bank for Nugget.
4. Bank service charges of $18 are not yet recorded on Nugget’s books.
5. The bank returned one of Nugget’s customer’s checks for $220 with the bank statement, marked “NSF.” The bank
treated this bad check as a disbursement.
6. Nugget discovered that it incorrectly recorded check #7322, written in November for $131 in payment of an
account payable, as $311.
7. A check for Nugent Oil Co. in the amount of $175 that the bank incorrectly charged to Nugget accompanied the
statement.

Global Accounting Insights


The basic accounting and reporting issues related to recognition
and measurement of cash and receivables are similar between
U.S. GAAP and IFRS. For example, the definition of cash and
cash equivalents as well as the use of allowance accounts, how
to record discounts, use of the allowance method to account for
bad debts, and factoring are similar for both IFRS and U.S.
GAAP. In the wake of the international credit crisis, the Boards
worked together to improve the accounting for loan impairments
and securitizations.

Global Accounting Insights


Similarities
• The accounting and reporting related to cash is essentially the same under both
U.S. GAAP and IFRS. In addition, the definition used for cash equivalents is
the same.
• As with IFRS, cash and receivables are generally reported in the current assets
section of the statement of financial position (balance sheet) under U.S. GAAP.
• As with IFRS, for trade and other accounts receivable without a significant
financing component, an allowance for uncollectible accounts should be
recorded to result in receivables reported at cash (net) realizable value. The
estimation approach used is similar to that under IFRS.
• Similar to U.S. GAAP, IFRS requires that loans and receivables be accounted
for at amortized cost, adjusted for allowances for doubtful accounts.

LO 7 Copyright ©2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 87

Global Accounting Insights


Differences
• Under IFRS, companies may report cash and receivables as
the last items in current assets under IFRS. Under U.S.
GAAP, these items are reported in order of liquidity.
• While IFRS implies that receivables with different
characteristics should be reported separately, there is no
standard that mandates this segregation. U.S. GAAP has
explicit guidance in the area.

More Differences
• IFRS differs from U.S. GAAP in its approach to estimating uncollectible
accounts on receivables with a significant financing component (e.g., notes
receivable). For long-term receivables that have not experienced a
deterioration in credit quality after origination, uncollectible accounts are
estimated based on expected losses over the next 12 months. For long-term
receivables that experience a credit quality decline, uncollectible accounts are
estimated based on lifetime expected losses (which is the model used under
U.S. GAAP for all receivables).
• Under IFRS, bank overdrafts are generally reported as cash. Under U.S.
GAAP , such balances are reported as liabilities.
• IFRS and U.S. GAAP differ in the criteria used to account for transfers of
receivables. IFRS is a combination of an approach focused on risks and
rewards and loss of control. U.S. GAAP uses loss of control as the primary
criterion. In addition, IFRS generally permits partial transfers; U.S. GAAP
does not.

On the Horizon
Both the IASB and the FASB have indicated that they believe that
financial statements would be more transparent and understandable
if companies recorded and reported all financial instruments at fair
value. With the recently issued guidance on impairments by both
boards, IFRS and U.S. GAAP are now more closely aligned with
earlier recognition of impairments. Most believe that both Boards’
approaches to estimating uncollectible accounts represent
improvements and address the weakness in previous bad debt
accounting that was highlighted by the 20072008 financial crisis.
Time will tell if one model or the other provides more useful
information to investors and creditors.
