The accounting cycle is a series of nine steps that are regularly repeated to record a company's financial transactions. The steps include collecting source documents, analyzing transactions, recording transactions in a journal, posting to the general ledger, preparing a trial balance, preparing a worksheet, creating financial statements, journalizing and posting closing entries, and preparing a post-closing trial balance. The accounting cycle ensures all financial records are complete and accurate.
Preparing financial statements involves the process of combining accounting information into a standardised financial set. Completed financial statements are provided to management, creditors, creditors, and investors, who use them to assess the performance, liquidity, and cash flow of the organisation.
The accounting cycle consists of 9 key steps: (1) analyzing transactions, (2) journalizing transactions, (3) posting to ledger accounts, (4) preparing a trial balance, (5) journalizing and posting adjusting entries, (6) preparing an adjusted trial balance, (7) preparing financial statements, (8) journalizing and posting closing entries, and (9) preparing a post-closing trial balance. The purpose of the accounting cycle is to ensure all financial activities of a business are recorded and reported accurately through a series of processes that track money coming in and going out. Errors can occur if transactions are incorrectly recorded or posted, leading to an unbalanced trial balance that requires adjustment.
This document discusses key accounting concepts related to accrual accounting including the revenue recognition principle, matching principle, and differences between cash basis and accrual basis accounting. It explains why adjusting entries are needed to follow these concepts and identifies major types of adjusting entries such as those for deferrals and accruals. Specific topics covered include preparing adjusting entries for prepaid expenses, unearned revenues, accrued revenues, and accrued expenses.
The document discusses the accounting cycle, which is a series of steps that involve recording business transactions from source documents through journal entries, posting to ledgers, preparing a trial balance, and ultimately producing financial statements. It describes each step in detail, including source documents, journal entries, posting to ledgers, trial balances, and financial statements such as the income statement and balance sheet. The accounting cycle is an important process for small businesses to understand their financial status and performance over a period of time.

2) Operations supplied the majority of Sage's cash needs in 2016 and 2014, but borrowing accounted for 98% of cash inflows in 2015 when operations used cash.
3) Sage's capital expenditures decreased in 2015 and increased in 2016, with expenditures covered by different sources each year.
4) Analysis of cash inflows and outflows can provide insights into a

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.

The document provides an overview of cash flow statements, including:
- The purpose is to present cash inflows and outflows for a reporting period to show the ability of an organization to generate cash and how funds are used.
- There are two main methods for presenting cash flows - the direct method shows specific cash flows like receipts/payments, while the indirect method uses net income as a starting point and adjusts for non-cash items.
- Non-cash transactions like asset purchases through loans do not involve cash but still impact financial reports, so are accounted for in cash flow statements.
This document provides an introduction to accounting concepts including the four phases of accounting (recording, classifying, summarizing, and interpreting), business organizations, accounting elements and values, the accounting cycle, and examples of basic business transactions. It defines accounting and explains why the study of accounting is needed. It also outlines the key steps in the accounting cycle including journalizing, posting to ledgers, preparing a trial balance and financial statements, and interpreting financial results.
The document discusses key financial statements and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). It describes the four main financial statements - balance sheet, income statement, statement of owner's equity, and statement of cash flows - and what each reports. It also explains several important GAAP principles, including the business entity principle, objectivity principle, cost principle, going concern principle, monetary unit principle, and revenue recognition principle. These principles are designed to make financial statement information relevant, reliable, consistent and comparable.
This document discusses key components of financial statement analysis. It explains that a balance sheet provides a snapshot of a company's financial position at a point in time, showing assets equal to liabilities plus equity. An income statement measures revenues and expenses to determine income/profit. The statement of cash flows reconciles a company's operating, investing, and financing cash flows with changes in cash. Ratio analysis compares various financial metrics over time and against industry peers to evaluate a company's liquidity, asset use, debt levels, profitability, and market value. The overall goal is for managers to focus on cash flows to ensure a company can meet obligations and fund current and future operations.
This document discusses key aspects of financial statement and cash flow analysis. It covers the main financial statements including the balance sheet, income statement, statement of retained earnings, and statement of cash flows. It also discusses cash flow analysis, different types of ratios used to analyze financial performance (liquidity, activity, debt, profitability, market), and how to benchmark performance over time and against industry peers. The overall purpose is to analyze a company's financial position and performance through its financial statements and key metrics.
HR search is critical to a company's success because it ensures the correct people are in place. HR search integrates workforce capabilities with company goals by painstakingly identifying, screening, and employing qualified candidates, supporting innovation, productivity, and growth. Efficient talent acquisition improves teamwork while encouraging collaboration. Also, it reduces turnover, saves money, and ensures consistency. Furthermore, HR search discovers and develops leadership potential, resulting in a strong pipeline of future leaders. Finally, this strategic approach to recruitment enables businesses to respond to market changes, beat competitors, and achieve long-term success.

TEACHING TIP
Service businesses recognize revenue when the services are performed, although many customers may have been billed for the services (on account). The cash has not been received; however, the services have been performed. Therefore, revenue should be recognized.

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.

The document provides an overview of cash flow statements, including:
- The purpose is to present cash inflows and outflows for a reporting period to show the ability of an organization to generate cash and how funds are used.
- There are two main methods for presenting cash flows - the direct method shows specific cash flows like receipts/payments, while the indirect method uses net income as a starting point and adjusts for non-cash items.
- Non-cash transactions like asset purchases through loans do not involve cash but still impact financial reports, so are accounted for in cash flow statements.
This document provides an introduction to accounting concepts including the four phases of accounting (recording, classifying, summarizing, and interpreting), business organizations, accounting elements and values, the accounting cycle, and examples of basic business transactions. It defines accounting and explains why the study of accounting is needed. It also outlines the key steps in the accounting cycle including journalizing, posting to ledgers, preparing a trial balance and financial statements, and interpreting financial results.
The document discusses key financial statements and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). It describes the four main financial statements - balance sheet, income statement, statement of owner's equity, and statement of cash flows - and what each reports. It also explains several important GAAP principles, including the business entity principle, objectivity principle, cost principle, going concern principle, monetary unit principle, and revenue recognition principle. These principles are designed to make financial statement information relevant, reliable, consistent and comparable.
This document discusses key components of financial statement analysis. It explains that a balance sheet provides a snapshot of a company's financial position at a point in time, showing assets equal to liabilities plus equity. An income statement measures revenues and expenses to determine income/profit. The statement of cash flows reconciles a company's operating, investing, and financing cash flows with changes in cash. Ratio analysis compares various financial metrics over time and against industry peers to evaluate a company's liquidity, asset use, debt levels, profitability, and market value. The overall goal is for managers to focus on cash flows to ensure a company can meet obligations and fund current and future operations.
This document discusses key aspects of financial statement and cash flow analysis. It covers the main financial statements including the balance sheet, income statement, statement of retained earnings, and statement of cash flows. It also discusses cash flow analysis, different types of ratios used to analyze financial performance (liquidity, activity, debt, profitability, market), and how to benchmark performance over time and against industry peers. The overall purpose is to analyze a company's financial position and performance through its financial statements and key metrics.
