Accrual Accounting and Balance Day AdjustmentsCollege
The document discusses different accounting methods and balance day adjustments. It describes cash accounting and accrual accounting. It then explains four common balance day adjustments - prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, unearned revenues, and accrued revenues - through examples and journal entries. These adjustments ensure revenues and expenses are accurately matched between accounting periods.
This document discusses balance-day adjustments that firms must make at the end of an accounting period. It explains that on the balance day, firms must close revenue and expense accounts, balance asset, liability, and equity accounts, calculate net profit, and prepare financial reports. It also describes how firms make adjusting entries on the balance day to account for accrued and prepaid revenue and expenses, and depreciation, to ensure revenue and expenses are reported accurately based on the accrual method. Finally, it explains how an adjusted trial balance is prepared after all balance-day adjustments have been made.
This document discusses the accounting concepts of accruals and deferrals. Accrual accounting records transactions when they occur rather than when cash is exchanged. Examples of accrual events include sales on credit, wages expense, and interest expense. Accounts receivable and accounts payable arise from accruals. The document also discusses how to accrue revenues, expenses, interest, and taxes before preparing financial statements. Deferred revenues and expenses occur when cash is received or paid before the revenue is earned or expense incurred. Examples of deferrals include prepaid rent, insurance, and supplies.
This document provides a 31 question multiple choice exam for an accounting course (ACCT 220). The questions cover a range of accounting topics including adjusting entries, inventory costing methods, depreciation, payroll accounting, and bank reconciliations. The exam tests understanding of accounting principles such as accrual accounting, the accounting equation, and the matching principle.
Provisions in Accounting & Prepaid ExpensesDeepak Soni
Accrual-basis accounting is a concept in which expenses are recorded when incurred, not when amount is paid.
1. ACCRUALS / PROVISIONS: All expenses incurred to generate revenues must be recognized in the same period as the related revenues.
A provision is an amount that you put in aside in your accounts to cover a future liability.
2. PREPAID: A type of asset that arises on a balance sheet as a result of business making payments for goods and services to be received in the near future.

Accounting Cycle- Accruals and Defferls- Adjusting entriesFaHaD .H. NooR
An accrual occurs before a payment or receipt. A deferral occurs after a payment or receipt. There are accruals for expenses and for revenues. There are deferrals for expenses and for revenues.
An accrual of an expense refers to the reporting of an expense and the related liability in the period in which they occur, and that period is prior to the period in which the payment is made. An example of an accrual for an expense is the electricity that is used in December, but the payment will not be made until January.
An accrual of revenues refers to the reporting of revenues and the related receivables in the period in which they are earned, and that period is prior to the period of the cash receipt. An example of the accrual of revenues is the interest earned in December on an investment in a government bond, but the interest will not be received until January.
A deferral of an expense refers to a payment that was made in one period, but will be reported as an expense in a later period. An example is the payment in December for the six-month insurance premium that will be reported as an expense in the months of January through June.
A deferral of revenues refers to receipts in one accounting period, but they will be earned in future accounting periods. For example, the insurance company has a cash receipt in December for a six-month insurance premium. However, the insurance company will report this as part of its revenues in January through June.

XYZ Company provided its trial balance as of December 31, 2015. The document lists account balances and additional information regarding notes receivable, notes payable, building and equipment depreciation, and inventory. It provides several required tasks including preparing correcting and adjusting entries, an adjusted trial balance, classified balance sheet, and closing entries.
The document discusses various balance day adjustments that are made to accounting records at the end of each accounting period to follow the matching and accrual principles. These include adjusting accounts for prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, unearned revenue, accrued revenue, inventory discrepancies, depreciation, and doubtful debts. The purpose is to allocate revenues and expenses to the correct accounting period to determine the profit or loss for that period.
The document discusses revenue recognition principles and methods under US GAAP. It covers the realization principle, revenue recognition at delivery, after delivery using installment and cost recovery methods, long-term construction contracts using percentage of completion and completed contract methods, and other topics like software revenue recognition.
Adjusting entries are journal entries made at the end of an accounting period to allocate revenues and expenses to the appropriate period. This is necessary because under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are reported in the period they are earned and expenses in the period they are incurred. Some accounts, like prepaid expenses and unearned revenue, require adjustment to adhere to the revenue recognition and matching principles. The document provides examples of accounts that need adjustment, the cash versus accrual accounting methods, and the purpose of adjusting entries in ensuring financial statements reflect the proper period's financial activity.
This document discusses key accounting principles and concepts related to revenue and expense recognition, adjusting entries, depreciation, doubtful accounts, and inventory. It explains that revenues are recognized when earned and expenses when incurred, and that adjusting entries are made at the end of each accounting period to apply these principles. Methods for recognizing and estimating depreciation, doubtful accounts, and taking physical inventory are also summarized.
This document provides an overview of financial accounting basics, including transaction analysis and balance sheet changes. It discusses how various business transactions affect the accounting equation of Assets = Liabilities + Equity. It then walks through a series of sample transactions for a company called ABC Company and shows the resulting impact on its balance sheet each time. It also introduces accounting conventions for increasing and decreasing accounts and ensuring debits equal credits for each transaction.
An adjusting entry involves both an income statement account (revenue or expense) and a balance sheet account (asset or liability) to record unrecognized income or expenses for the period. There are two categories of adjusting entries: deferrals and accruals. Deferrals involve prepaid expenses, unearned revenue, and similar items. Accruals involve accrued expenses and accrued revenue. Important rules are that cash is never involved in adjusting entries and adjusting entries always involve a revenue or expense account.

This article discusses research showing that the American Dream of social mobility through hard work is less attainable today than in the past. Poor Americans, especially white Americans, are much more pessimistic about their ability to get ahead through hard work compared to poorer Latin Americans. The article analyzes survey data showing high levels of stress and lack of optimism among poor white Americans, while poor black and Hispanic Americans are more optimistic about their future prospects despite facing discrimination. The declining belief in the American Dream, especially among poor whites, suggests it may be in tatters given reduced social support for those facing difficulties.

Reporting Revenue Accurately
The Until recently, electronics manufacturer Apple was required to spread the revenues from iPhone sales over the two-year period following the sale of the phone. Accounting standards required this because Apple was obligated to provide software updates after the phone was sold. Since Apple had service obligations after the initial date of sale, it was forced to spread the revenue over a two-year period. As a result, the rapid growth of iPhone sales was not fully reflected in the revenue amounts reported in Apple’s income statement. A new accounting standard now enables Apple to report much more of its iPhone revenue at the point of sale. It was estimated that under the new rule revenues would have been about 17% higher and earnings per share almost 50% higher.

This document discusses accounting for the disposition of fixed assets and the differences in how exchanges of similar versus dissimilar assets are handled. Exchanges of similar assets are treated as a sale, with any gain or loss recognized on the financial statements. Exchanges of dissimilar assets are treated as a sale and purchase, with any gain or loss again recognized. The rationale is that exchanges of similar assets are essentially a sale of one asset to acquire another similar one, while dissimilar asset exchanges involve a true sale and new purchase.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Problem 7-4 (Part Level Submission) (2 parts)
From inception of operations to December 31,
2017, Vaughn Corporation provided for
uncollectible accounts receivable under the
allowance method. The provisions are recorded,
based on analyses of customers with different risk
characteristics. Bad debts written off were
charged to the allowance account; recoveries of
bad debts previously written off were credited to
the allowance account, and no year-end
adjustments to the allowance account were made.
Vaughn's usual credit terms are net 30 days.
8. The balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
was $147,500 at January 1, 2017. During 2017,
credit sales totaled $9,175,300, the provision for
doubtful accounts was determined to be
$183,506, $91,753 of bad debts were written off,
and recoveries of accounts previously written off
amounted to $19,230. Vaughn installed a
computer system in November 2017, and an aging
of accounts receivable was prepared for the first
time as of December 31, 2017. A summary of the
aging is as follows.
Based on the review of collectibility of the account
balances in the “prior to 1/1/17" aging category,
additional receivables totaling $63,700 were
written off as of December 31, 2017. The 81%
uncollectible estimate applies to the remaining
$97,700 in the category. Effective with the year
ended December 31, 2017, Vaughn adopted a
different method for estimating the allowance for
doubtful accounts at the amount indicated by the
year-end aging analysis of accounts receivable.
