STEPS IN THE
ACCOUNTING CYCLE
1. Analyzing economic activity
2. Journalizing business transactions
3. Posting to the ledger
4. Preparing a trial balance
5. Adjusting the books (AJEs are posted and
adjusted trial balance is prepared)
6. Preparing Financial Statements
7. Closing the books (CJEs are posted and a
post-closing TB is prepared.)
8. Journalizing reversing entries (RJEs are
posted)
ADJUSTING ENTRIES
 (P.48)
 During the period, revenues and expenses are
usually recorded following the movements of
cash.
 However, under the accrual basis, we need to
do some adjustments in order to faithfully depict
the performance of the entity during the period.
 Revenue and expense recognition principles
must be observed.
 (proceed to slide #51)
ADJUSTING ENTRIES
Why do we need to adjust?

1. To bring the accounts up-to-


date

2. To assure the proper


matching of revenues and
expenses.

7
Accounts to adjust:
1. Accruals
2. Deferrals
3. Depreciation and amortization
4. Estimated uncollectible accounts
5. Ending inventory
(applicable to merchandising and
manufacturing businesses)

8
Things to remember:
 Adjustingof accounts is made at the
end of the period before FS are
prepared.

 Adjusting is done to make sure that


financials comply with the standards
of GAAP.

 Apply appropriate account


relationships.
 Asset & Revenue, Liability and Expense
 Asset and Expense, Liability and Revenue

ACCRUALS
1. Accrued Revenues
Accruing revenue – means bringing into
existence an income that is already earned but
not yet received and not yet recorded.
Asset (Accrued revenue) xxx
Revenue xxx

2. Accrued Expenses
Accruing an expense means bringing into
existence an incurred and unrecorded expense
that is unpaid because payment is not yet due.
Expenses xxx

Provision for Depreciation
◦ Depreciation is the used or expired
portion of productive facilities (tangible
assets), such as building, furniture and
fixtures, equipment which have been
recorded at their acquisition costs as
capital expenditures in accordance
with the cost principle of accounting.

◦ These productive facilities are also


called “property, plant and equipment”
or “fixed assets”.
PowerPoint presentation by Dr Anne
Abraham, University of Western Sydney 28
Provision for Depreciation
◦ Allocation of the cost of the asset to
expense over its useful life

◦ Common method is to divide cost of


asset by useful life (straight-line
method)

Adjusting entries for
depreciation continued
◦ On January 1, 2012, Computromix acquired
a computer for office use with an invoice
price of P50,000. It was estimated to have
a useful life of five years and a salvage

difference between the cost of any

IMPAIRMENT OF
ASSETS

32
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
At year-end, before the preparation of
the financial statements, the enterprise
has to ensure that no asset on the SFP is
presented beyond its recoverable value.
◦ Examples: Loans and receivables

In the case that there is uncertainty in


fully realizing collection, the accounts
should be correspondingly reduced in
order to reflect the projected
collectability at the date of the FS.

33
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
 Therecognition of impairment loss on financial
asset such as receivable is covered by IFRS 9,
which requires an entity to record expected credit
losses at all times and to update its estimate of
such expected credit losses at year-end to reflect
the changes in the credit risk of the financial asset.
 Afterthe AJE, the SFP reports accounts receivable at
its amortized cost. (or recoverable amount, or nrv).
 Instead of maintaining a valuation account that
reduces receivables to recoverable amount (or
amortized cost, as referred to by IFRS 9) a direct
credit to the financial instrument may be made.
(p.54-Vol.3, Intermediate Acctg.)

34
IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS
 Thus,in recording impairment loss on
receivable, an alternative entry is:

◦ Impairment Loss – Receivable xx


 Receivable xx

 For illustration, refer to pp. 54-55, Intermediate Acctg,


V3.)

35
ADJUSTMENT FOR
INVENTORY ACCOUNT

No adjustment necessary if the


company uses the perpetual inventory
system unless there are errors, spoilage
or theft that may have occurred.

However, the cost of inventory may be


reduced to net realizable value,
because inventories are measured in
the FS at the lower of cost and net
realizable value.
36
ADJUSTMENT FOR
INVENTORY ACCOUNT
Under the periodic system, an
adjustment is necessary to set-up the
year-end inventory.

◦ Function of expense method – (AJE)


 Inventory, ending xx
 Purchase ret & allow xx
 Cost of goods sold xx
 Inventory, beginning xx
 Purchases xx
 Freight-in xx

37
ADJUSTMENT FOR
INVENTORY ACCOUNT
Ifthe company chooses to present
expenses in the SCI according to nature
where COGS is not established but
merely adjusts the inventory account, a
closing entry is then prepared as follows:

◦ Income Summary xx
 Inventory, beginning xx

Inventory, ending xx
Income Summary xx

38
CLOSING ENTRIES
 Each account affecting the computation of
profit or loss for the period is debited or
credited for the amount that will result to a
zero balance in that account,

 Such
balance is transferred to the income
summary account.

 Theincome summary account and the


drawings or dividends account are finally
transferred to capital or retained earnings.

39
Preparing a post-closing trial
LO3
balance
• A post-closing trial balance is a list of all
permanent accounts and their balances after
closing entries are journalised and posted

• The purpose of the post-closing trial balance is


to prove the equality of the permanent
accounts that are carried forward to the next
accounting period

Reversing entries
• Reversing entries are made at the beginning of
the next accounting period
• Their purpose is to simplify the recording of a
subsequent transaction related to an adjusting
entry
• They are most often used to reverse two types of
adjusting entries
– accrued revenues
– accrued expenses
• Reversing entries are optional
PowerPoint presentation by Dr Anne
46
Abraham, University of Western Sydney
REVERSING ENTRIES
When deferrals are originally recorded
in real accounts (asset and liability)
the year-end adjustment is not
reversed,
as transactions during the succeeding
period would also be recorded using
the same asset and liability accounts,
And expense and revenue balances
would only be set up at year-end.

ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT OF PREPAID
EXPENSES AND UNEARNED REVENUE
LO8 Some firms initially use income statement
accounts rather than liability accounts
◦ Debit the expense for prepaid expenses when
cash is paid
◦ Credit the revenue at the time cash is received
After adjustments, the two treatments will
result in the same effect on the financial
statements as the initial entries to the
