8 Generally a month, a quarter, or a year. Fiscal year vs. calendar year Also known as the “Periodicity Assumption” Timing Issues Accountants divide the economic life of a business into artificial time periods (Time Period Assumption). Jan.Feb.Mar.Apr.Dec......

9 The time period assumption states that: a. a.revenue should be recognized in the accounting period in which it is earned. b. expenses should be matched with revenues. c. the economic life of a business can be divided into artificial time periods. d. the fiscal year should correspond with the calendar year. Review Timing Issues

10 Accrual-Basis Accounting Transactions recorded in the periods in which the events occur Revenues are recognized when earned, rather than when cash is received. Expenses are recognized when incurred, rather than when paid. Timing Issues Accrual- vs. Cash-Basis Accounting

11 Cash-Basis Accounting Revenues are recognized when cash is received. Expenses are recognized when cash is paid. Cash-basis accounting is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Timing Issues Accrual- vs. Cash-Basis Accounting

12 One of the following statements about the accrual basis of accounting is false. That statement is: a.Events that change a company’s financial statements are recorded in the periods in which the events occur. b.Revenue is recognized in the period in which it is earned. c.The accrual basis of accounting is in accord with generally accepted accounting principles. d.Revenue is recorded only when cash is received, and expenses are recorded only when cash is paid. Review Timing Issues

13 Adjusting entries make it possible to report correct amounts on the balance sheet and on the income statement. A company must make adjusting entries every time it prepares financial statements. The Basics of Adjusting Entries

14 Revenues - recorded in the period in which they are earned Revenues - recorded in the period in which they are earned. Expenses - recognized in the period in which they are incurred Expenses - recognized in the period in which they are incurred. Adjusting entries- needed to ensure that the revenue recognition and matching principles are followed. Adjusting entries - needed to ensure that the revenue recognition and matching principles are followed. The Basics of Adjusting Entries

15 Adjusting entries are made to ensure that: a. expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred. b. revenues are recorded in the period in which they are earned. c. balance sheet and income statement accounts have correct balances at the end of an accounting period. d. all of the above. Review Timing Issues

16 Types of Adjusting Entries 1.Prepaid Expenses. Expenses paid in cash and recorded as assets before they are used or consumed. Deferrals 3. Accrued Revenues. Revenues earned but not yet received in cash or recorded. 4. Accrued Expenses. Expenses incurred but not yet paid in cash or recorded. 2. Unearned Revenues. Revenues received in cash and recorded as liabilities before they are earned. Accruals

25 Illustration: Pioneer Advertising Agency purchased advertising supplies costing $2,500 on October 5. This account shows a balance of $2,500 in the October 31 trial balance. An inventory count at the close of business on October 31 reveals that $1,000 of supplies are still on hand.

26 Supplies For example: the general ledger shows a balance in the supplies account of $2,000. Inventory shows $500 of supplies still on hand Supplies Balance $2,000 Inventory 500 Used up 1,500 Adjusting Entries Supplies expense $1500 Supplies $1500

27 Example 1 the general ledger shows that the balance in the supplies account is $4,000. An inventory is conducted of supplies and it is found that only $2,500 of supplies is still on hand. Record the adjusting entry for the use of supplies.

28 Prepaid insurance The G/L shows the balance are $6,000. The policy was purchased on May 1 st for 12 months. Record the adjusting entry on Dec 31 for insurance expired. $6,000/12 = 500 per month May to Dec = 8 months x $500 = $4,000 is expired

29 Prepaid insurance Adjusting entry Insurance exp $4,000 Prepaid insurance $4,000

30 Example 2: the general ledger shows that the balance in the prepaid insurance account is $12000. The policy was purchased on Aug 1st for 12 months. Record the adjusting entry for the insurance expired.

31 Depreciation Buildings, equipment, and vehicles (long-lived assets) are recorded as assets, rather than an expense, in the year acquired. Companies report a portion of the cost of a long- lived asset as an expense (depreciation) during each period of the asset’s useful life (Matching Principle).
