Accounting can be defined as an information
system that provides reports to stakeholders about
the economic activities and condition of a business.
1-1
Who are stakeholders? – anyone or any entity that has an interest in
the economic performance and well-being of a business
Bankers and other creditors – need to ensure that the business has the
ability to repay loans, and on a timely basis
Suppliers – need to ensure their customer (the business) will be around to
purchase their supplies and then be able to pay for them
Customers – are interested in the business to determine if they will always
be around to provide a constant flow of goods and services
Government – need to ensure that the business pays the correct amount of
taxes
Employees and Management– need to ensure that the business is doing
well so that they will have a job
5
Different types of Accounting
1-1
Financial accounting is primarily concerned with the recording &
reporting of economic data and activities for a business to external parties.
Managerial accounting uses both financial accounting and
estimated data to aid management in running day-to-day
operations and in planning future operations.
Accountants employed by a business firm or a not-for-profit
organization are said to be employed in private accounting.
E.g. CFO, Controller, or Financial Analyst of Pepsico
Accountants and their staff who provide services to the
public (i.e. individuals and corporations) on a fee basis are
said to be employed in public accounting. E.g.
PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, KPMG, Deloitte
6
Objective #2 - Summarize the development of
accounting principles and relate them to practice. 1-2
GAAP – Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. These are the
rules that govern how businesses record and report financial transactions
FASB – Financial Accounting Standards Board. This body is
the major one responsible for preparing US GAAP.
IASB – International Accounting Standards Board. This body
is the one responsible for preparing International GAAP, which is also
known as ‘International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)’
The business entity concept limits the economic data in the accounting
system to data related directly to the activities of the business. – i.e.
nothing personal unless it has been given/assigned to the business
The cost concept is the basis for entering the exchange price, or cost
of an acquisition in the accounting records. – e.g. what was paid for it.

Revenue and expenses
1-4
A company earns revenues by
•selling products - Sales
•providing services - Fees Earned
•renting out premises - Rent Revenue
•lending money - Interest Revenue
The amounts used in earning revenue are called expenses.
Note:
Expenses that have paid for (or incurred) but not yet been used
up are referred to as prepaid expenses e.g. supplies.
When these prepaid expenses have been used up, they will
then become regular expenses e.g. supplies expenses

been increased would have been accounts receivable

Note……….
1. Adding expenses to the owner’s equity section
results in a space problem. To adjust for
these added headings, the word “Bal.” has
been omitted from some slides. The bottom
row still provides the balances after each
transaction.
2. Beginning with entry (e) the asset section will
be shown first, then the liabilities and owner’s
equity will be shown in the following slide.

Objective #5 - Describe the financial statements of
a proprietorship and explain how they interrelate.
1-5
Accounting reports, called financial statements,
provide summarized information to the owner.
The 4 common financial statements are prepared in
the following order:
1. Income Statement
2. Statement of Owner’s Equity
3. Balance Sheet
4. Statement of Cash Flow
30
1-5
The income statement is a summary of
the revenue and expenses for a specific
period of time, such as a month or a year.
The income statement is based on the matching concept.
This concept is applied by matching expenses with the
revenues they generated, only during the period that those
revenues were generated.
Note - The excess of revenue over the expenses is
called net income or net profit. If the expenses
exceed the revenue, the difference is a net loss.
31
Income Statement
Net income is carried to the statement of owner’s equity

A statement of owner’s equity is a
