  2. ...but at current value or historical cost? Measurement: quantification of the effects of the item on the entity Recognition and Measurement I know I need to record this... Recognition: formally recording an item in the financial statements of an entity

  3. Cash vs. Accrual Basis Cash basis: revenues and expenses are recorded only when cash is received or paid Accrual basis: revenues are recognized when earned; expenses are recognized when incurred

  4. Revenue Recognition Principle Revenue is recognized when realized and earned - usually at point of sale. Exceptions: • Long-Term Contracts- over life of project • Franchises- upon substantial performance • Commodities - when readily convertible • Installment Sales- when cash is collected • Rent and Interest- continuously when earned

  5. Expense Recognition Balance Sheet Income Statement ASSETS: Inventory Supplies Prepaid assets PP&E Intangibles EXPENSES: Cost of goods sold when sold as used Supplies expense Insurance expense Rent expense over period they provide benefits Depreciation expense Amortization expense Other expenses (as incurred)

  6. Simultaneously upon their acquisition Indirectly over period they provide benefits Matching Principle Match Expenses with Associated Revenues Directly e.g. Buildings e.g. Inventory e.g. Utilities

  7. Deferred Expense - Cash paid before expense is incurred • Examples: • Prepaid rent & insurance • Office supplies • Plant & equipment • Costs are initially recorded as assets and allocated to expense in future periods

  8. Deferred Expense Example #1 – Prepay rent on office space for one year on Sept. 1 Initial J/E:Dr.Cr. Prepaid Rent 2,400 Cash 2,400 Monthly adjusting J/E: Rent Expense 200 Prepaid Rent 200 ($2,400 annual x 1/12 = $200 per mo. for 12 mos.)

  9. Deferred Expense Example #2 -Purchase delivery truck on January 1 for $21,000. Estimated useful life is 5 years (60 months); estimated salvage value is $3,000. Initial J/E:Dr.Cr. Delivery Truck 21,000 Cash 21,000 Monthly adjusting J/E: Depreciation Expense 300 Accumulated Depreciation 300 ($21,000 - $3,000) x 1/60 = $300 per mo. for 60 mos.)

  10. Deferred Revenue -Cash received before revenue is earned • Examples: • Rent collected in advance • Subscriptions collected in advance • Gift certificates • Receipts are initially recorded as liabilities (unearned or refundable receipts) and recorded as revenues in future periods when earned.

  11. Deferred Revenue Example -Receive $2,400 for twelve months rent in advance Initial J/E:Dr.Cr. Cash 2,400 Rent Collected in Advance 2,400 Monthly adjusting J/E: Rent Collected in Advance 200 Rent Revenue 200 ( $2,400 annual x 1/12 = $200 per mo. for 12 mos.)

  12. Accrued Liability - Expense incurred before cash is paid • Examples: • Payroll • Taxes • Interest • Record expense (and corresponding liability) in period incurred; pay for it in a future period • No cash flow on recording, only when paid

  13. Accrued Liability Example #1 -Pay biweekly wages of $28,000 At end of month, between pay periods:Dr.Cr. Wages Expense 4,000 Wages Payable 4,000 Next payday: Wages Payable 4,000 Wages Expense 24,000 Cash 28,000

  14. Accrued Liability Example #2 - Borrow $20,000 for three months. Principal plus 9% interest due at end of loan period. Initial J/E:Dr.Cr. Cash 20,000 Note Payable 20,000 Monthly adjusting J/E: Interest Expense 150 Interest Payable 150( $20,000 principal x 9% x 3/12 = $450 for 3 months or $450/3 = $150 per month)

  15. Revenue Accrued Asset - Revenue earned before cash is received • Examples: • Rent • Interest • Record revenue (and corresponding receivable) in period earned; receive payment in a future period

  16. Accrued Asset Example -Rent payment due within first 10 days of month First day of the month:Dr.Cr. Rent Receivable 2,500 Rent Revenue 2,500 Upon receipt of cash: Cash 2,500 Rent Receivable 2,500
