This document discusses key accounting concepts and principles, including:
- Accrual accounting, where transactions are recognized in the period they occur rather than when payment is made.
- Matching principle, where expenses match related revenues in the same period.
- Cost principle, where assets are recorded at their purchase price.
- Use of estimates and judgment in accounting given some items cannot be precisely measured.
- Prudence or conservatism, where higher estimates are used for expenses and lower estimates for revenues.
- Substance over form, where the economic reality of transactions matters more than legal form.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

This will be used as part of your Personal Professional Portfolio once graded.
Objective:
Prepare a presentation or a paper using research, basic comparative analysis, data organization and application of economic information. You will make an informed assessment of an economic climate outside of the United States to accomplish an entertainment industry objective.
2. Objectives
1. Explain the varied
accounting concepts and
principles; and
2. Solve exercises on
accounting principles as
applied in various cases.

3. Accrual Accounting
The effects of business transactions should be
recognized in the period in which they occurred. Income
should be recognize in the period when it is earned
regardless of when the payment is received. Expenses
should be recognized in the period when it is incurred
regardless of when the expenses are paid.

4. Illustration
When a barber finishes performing
his services he should record it as
revenue. When the barber shop
receives an electricity bill, it should
record it as an expense even if it is
unpaid.

6. Illustration
When you provide tutorial services to
a customer and there is a
transportation cost incurred related
to the tutorial services, it should be
recorded as an expense for that
period.

8. Illustration
When Jollibee buys a cash register,
it should record the cash register at
its price when they bought it.
When a company purchases a
laptop, it should be recorded at the
price it was purchased.

9. Use of Judgment and Estimates
Accounting estimates are approximations made by
accountants or the management in the preparation of
financial statements. The use of reasonable estimates
is an essential part of the preparation of financial
statements and does not undermine their reliability.
9
10. Illustration
Some of the items in the company’s accounting records such as cash,
property, plant and equipment, accounts payable, etc. can be measured
precisely. But there are items in the accounting records that cannot be
exactly measured. Thus, these items require the use of accounting
estimates. For instance, warranty expense. A warranty is a guarantee made
by the seller to the buyer promising to repair or replace the thing sold if
necessary within a specified period of time. When a sellers sells goods,
there are revenues generated that are recorded in the company’s
accounting record. According to the matching principle, all related expenses
should be recorded in the same period the revenues are recognized. The
problem is, what amount of warranty the company should recognize in the
accounting records. Thus, the warranty expense in the company’s
accounting records is usually estimated based on historical data.
10
11. Prudence
Prudence in accounting is also called conservatism.
Prudence means exercising care in decisions regarding
recognition of items in the accounting records. In case
of doubt, expenses should be recorded at a higher
amount. Revenue should be recorded at a lower
amount.
11
12. Illustration
Some of the financial transactions are sometimes uncertain
when they occur (like the warranty expense in the previous
illustration). Nevertheless, we still have to report these
transactions if they pertain to a specific period. In reporting
these transactions, an accountant needs to apply the concept
of prudence.
Prudence would also be exercised in setting up, an allowance
for doubtful accounts or a reserve for obsolete inventory. In
both cases, a specific item that will cause an expense has not
yet been identified, but a prudent person would record a
reserve in anticipation of a reasonable amount of these
expenses arising at some point in the future.
12
13. Substance Over Form
Information presented in the financial statements of a
company should truthfully and faithfully represent the
financial condition and financial performance of the
company. For this to be possible, an accountant should
look at the substance of every financial transaction
rather than its form.
13
14. Illustration
A transaction where the substance differs from the legal form
is a lease. In a lease, the lessor allows the lessee to use the
former’s property in exchange of a periodic fee. However,
when the ownership of the property transfers to the lessee at
the end of the lease, the substance differ from the legal form.
In this case, the transaction is really a sale of property with
installment payment instead of a lease. The lessee will record
an asset and a liability in his/her accounting records instead of
recognizing an expense.
When the substance differ from the legal form, follow the
substance of the transaction. In the illustration given, the
substance is a sale of property in installment payments while
the legal form is a lease. 14
15. Going Concern Assumption
The going concern assumption states that the
operations of a business will not stop in the near future
and it will not be forced to liquidate its assets to pay off
its liabilities. The going concern assumption allows
accountants to defer recognition of expenses in the
future.
15
16. Illustration
Company A rents a building for P100,000 per month. On
January 01, 2017, the company pay the rent for 2 years in the
amount of P2,400,000. Under the going concern assumption,
the company can recognize the part of the P2,400,000 that is
not yet incurred. On January 01, 2016, the company has yet
to used the building but already paid the rent. In this case, the
accountant can record an asset (prepaid expense) instead of
recognizing an expense immediately. If the entity is not a
going concern, there is no point recognizing the payment as
an asset since the company will not derived all benefits from
it.
16
18. Illustration
Jollibee should report financial statements in pesos
even if they have a store in the United States.
IHOP should report financial statements in dollars
even if they have a branch here in the Philippines.
18
19. Accounting Entity Assumption
According to accounting entity assumption, the
business is separate from the owners, managers, and
the employees operating the business. Likewise, if the
person owns multiple businesses, each business is
different from all the others. This means that if a person
has three businesses, then each business should keep
its own accounting records. The assets and liabilities of
each business should not be mixed up.
19
20. Illustration
Jim, an owner of a pizza shop, decides to buy a new
delivery car. Since the company was low on cash, Jim
decided to pay for the car himself out of his personal
bank account. Jim intends to add the car to
the balance sheet of the pizza shop. The economic
entity principle requires Jim and his company to keep
activities separated, so the car must remain a
personal vehicle unless Jim contributes it to the
company or the company buys it from Jim personally.
20
21. Time Period Assumption
This assumption states that the indefinite life of a company can
be divided into periods of equal length for the preparation of
financial reports. Normally, the period span for one year. Every
year, most businesses produce financial reports for the benefit
of the users of accounting information.
The accounting period may be a calendar year or a fiscal year.
A calendar year is a 12-month period that ends on December
31st. A fiscal year is a 12-month period that ends on any month
of the year.
21
22. Illustration
The Meta company provides services valuing Php
2,500 to Beta company during the first quarter of the
year. The Beta company will pay the cash for these
services next quarter. According to time period
assumption, if Meta company prepares its financial
statements at the end of the first quarter of the year,
it must include this service revenue of Php 2,500 in
its income statement for the first quarter.
22
23. Materiality Principle
In case of assets that are immaterial to make a difference in the
financial statements, the company should instead record it as
an expense.
23
24. Illustration
A school purchased an eraser with an
estimated useful life of three years. Since an
eraser is immaterial relative to assets, it
should be recorded as an expense.
24
26. GAAP
Generally Accepted Accounting
Principle
This consists of accounting
principles, standards, rules,
and guidelines that companies
follow to achieve consistency
and comparability in their
financial statements.
26
27. IFRS
International Financial Reporting
Standards
these are pronouncements issued by the
International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) that intend to enhance the
comparability of financial statements all
over the world. In light of globalization,
the IFRS will provide a way for users of
accounting information to easy
understand the results of operation of
companies all around the globe.
*Philippines is fully compliant with the
IFRS effective January 2005. 27
28. PFRS
Philippine Financial Reporting
Standards
The Philippine Financial Reporting Standards
Council (PFRSC) issues standards to be used
in the Philippines in the form of Philippine
Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS). The
PFRS includes the ff:
a. PFRS which corresponds to IFRS
b. PAS which corresponds to IAS
c. Interpretation of accounting standards
issued by the Philippine Interpretations
Committee in accordance with the
interpretations of the International Financial
Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and the
Standing Interpretations Committee 28
Note: Because of accrual accounting, use of accounts such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, deferred income and accrued income are possible.
Revenues of a business always come with expenses. No business can generate revenues without incurring expenses. Matching principle states that related expenses and revenues should always go together. In other words, if the revenue is recorded in period 1, the related expenses should also be recorded in period 1.
Note: Because of accrual accounting, use of accounts such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses, deferred income and accrued income are possible.
Later on, there will be an increase or decrease of the market value of an asset but still, the business should record all business transactions at initial cost.
Undermine = damage, weaken
In the case of doubt, recognize liabilities and expenses but do not recognize assets and income
Undermine = damage, weaken
