Assets

 Why do companies acquire assets?


 To yield a return for shareholders
 Assets generate revenue
 Directly through selling inventory, or
 Indirectly through manufacturing inventory that will be sold

 A record of increases and decreases for each asset, liability,
equity, revenue, or expense
 Chart of accounts
 Listing of account titles and identification codes
 The role of the account in transaction analysis
 What accounts are affected by the transaction?
 Must affect at least two accounts to maintain equality
 What is the direction and amount of each effect?
 Increase or decrease
 Dollar amount

Operating Revenues and Expenses

 Revenues
 Result from increases in net assets
 Caused by the company’s operating activities
 Expenses
 Result from decreases in net assets
 Caused by the company’s revenue-generating activities
 Cost of products and services sold
 Operating costs
 Nonoperating costs

Nonoperating Revenues and Expenses

 Relate to the company’s financing and investing


activities
 Interest revenue
 Interest expense
 Usually segregated as they offer different insights into
company performance
 Recurring items—persist in the future
 Nonrecurring items—unlikely to arise in the future; not
relevant to future performance

© Cambridge Business Publishers, 2018 32


Learning Objective 4

Explain revenue recognition,


accrual accounting, and their effects
on retained earnings.

© Cambridge Business Publishers, 2018 33


Accrual Accounting
Accrual accounting is required by U.S. GAAP and by
IFRS, and states that…

Revenues Expenses
Increases in net assets
Decreases in net assets
that are earned by
from generating revenue
delivering goods and
and supporting operations.
services to customers.

Did these activities increase or decrease


the net assets of the company?

© Cambridge Business Publishers, 2018 34


Accrual Accounting for Revenues

Revenue recognition requires that revenue be recognized


(recorded) only when earned.
Example 1
Target purchases inventories during May for $80,000, and sells half during May
for $140,000 cash. How much revenue will Target recognize during May?
Revenue for May = $140,000

Example 2
If Target collected $130,000 during May and customers promised to pay the
$10,000 balance during June, how much revenue will Target recognize during
May?
Revenue for May = $140,000

Revenues is earned when delivered to the customer.

© Cambridge Business Publishers, 2018 35


Accrual Accounting for Expenses

Expenses are matched when incurred against the related


revenue amounts. Example
Target purchased inventories during May for $80,000. It sold $70,000 of the
inventory for $120,000 during May. How much cost of goods sold expense
should Target recognized during May?
Expenses for May = $70,000

Cost of goods sold expenses are matched


against the revenue they helped to earn.

If Target had paid for $65,000 of the $80,000 inventory purchase, and planned
to pay the $15,000 balance during June, how much expense will Target
recognize during May?
Expenses for May = $70,000

Retained Earnings Articulation

Financial statements are linked within and across


accounting periods. This linkage is called articulation.
