INTRODUCTION
Accounting has rightly been termed as the language of the business.
The basic function of a language is to serve as a means of
communication Accounting also serves this function. It
communicates the results of business operations to various parties
who have some stake in the business viz., the proprietor, creditors,
investors, Government and other agencies. Though accounting is
generally associated with business but it is not only business which
makes use of accounting. Persons like housewives, Government and
other individuals also make use of a accounting. For example, a
housewife has to keep a record of the money received and spent by
her during a particular period. She can record her receipts of money
on one page of her "household diary" while payments for different
items such as milk, food, clothing, house, education etc.
ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF ACCOUNTING
 the act of accounting was not as developed as it is today because in the
early stages of civilisation, the number of transactions to be recorded
were so small that each businessman was able to record and check
for himself all his transactions. Accounting was practised in India
twenty three centuries ago as is clear from the book named
"Arthashastra“ written by Kautilya, King Chandragupta's minister. This
book not only relates to politics and economics, but also explain the art
of proper keeping of accounts. However, the modern system of
accounting based on the principles of double entry system owes it
origin to Luco Pacioli who first published the principles of Double
Entry System in 1494 at Venice in Italy. Thus, the art of accounting has
been practised for centuries but it is only in the late thirties that the
study of the subject 'accounting' has been taken up seriously.

MEANING OF ACCOUNTING
The main purpose of accounting is to ascertain profit or loss
during a specified period, to show financial condition of the
business on a particular date and to have control over the
firm's property.
The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has
defined the Financial Accounting as "the art of recording,
classifying and summarising in as significant manner and in
terms of money transactions and events which in part, at
least of a financial character, and interpreting the results
thereof"
STEPS OF ACCOUNTING
(1)Recording: Recording all the transactions in subsidiary
books for purpose of future record or
reference. It is referred to as
"Journal."
(2)Classifying: All recorded transactions in subsidiary books
are classified and posted to the main book of accounts. It
is known
as "Ledger."
(3) Summarizing: All recorded transactions in main books will
be
summarized for the preparation of Trail
Balance, Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet.
(4) Interpreting: Interpreting refers to the explanationof
the
meaning and significance of the result of financial accounts
BOOK-KEEPING V/S ACCOUNTING
Book-keeping is a part of accounting and is
concerned with the recording of transactions
which is often routine and clerical in nature,
whereas accounting performs other functions as
well, viz., measurement and communication,
besides recording. An accountant is required to
have a much higher level of knowledge,
conceptual understanding and analytical skill than
is required of the book-keeper
.
OBJECTIVES OF ACCOUNTING
-To keep systematic records.
-To protect business properties.
-To ascertain the operational profit or loss.
-To ascertain the financial position of the
business.
-To facilitate rational decision making.
-Information System.

SYSTEMS OF ACCOUNTING
-
Cash System. Under this system, actual cash receipts and
actual cash payments are recorded. Credit transactions
are not recorded at all until the cash in actually received
or paid. The Receipts and Payments Account prepared in
case of non- trading concerns such as a charitable
institution, a club, a school, a college, etc. and
professional men like a lawyer, a doctor, a chartered
accountant etc.
-Mercantile (Accrual) system. Under this system all
transactions relating to a period are recorded in the books
of account i.e., in addition to actual receipts and
payments of cash income receivable and expenses
payable are also recorded.
ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

ILLUSTRATION
1 :
On 31st March 2001 Mr. PQR resigned from
his employment. On that date he receives from
his employer Rs. 15,000. On 1st April 2001, he
started a business with Rs. 15,000. On 2nd
April he opened a Bank A/c by depositing Rs.
10,000 ; on 6th April he purchased 100 units of
L at Rs. 10,000.
He paid Rs. 5,000 in cash and
agreed to pay balance amount after one
month.. On 7th April he sold 60 units of L for
cash and 30 units of L on 2 months credit
term. Selling price
April 1
Cash introduced in business Rs. 15,000
Cash Rs. 15,000 = Proprietor’s Capital A/c
15,000 Asset (cash) = Capital + Liabilities
15,000 = 15,000 + 0
April 2 : Opened Bank A/c by depositing Rs.
10,000
Cash (15,000 – 10,000) + Bank (10,000) =
Capital (15,000)
Asset (Cash + Bank) 15,000 = Capital (15,000) + Liability
(0) 15,000 = 15,000 + 0
April 6 : Goods purchased for Rs. 10,000 paid Rs. 5,000 in
cash; by the transaction
as on that his stock of goods amounted to Rs. 10,000. As he
paid cash
Rs. 5,000, cash balance was nil and liability for goods purchased
was Rs. 5,000
Asset = Liabilities + Capital
Cash (0) + Bank (10,000) + Stock (10,000) = Capital (15,000) +
Liability (5,000)
20,000 = 20,000
April 7 : He sold 60 units of L for cash @ Rs. 120. He therefore received Rs.
7,200 in cash and 30 units of L for credit @ 120, therefore Rs. 3,600 becomes
amount receivable. He thus withdrew 90 units of L costing Rs. 9,000 which he
sold at
Rs. 10,800 (Rs. 7,200 + Rs. 3,600). He therefore earned an income of Rs. 1,800
which would increase his capital. The above transactions would affect the
following Accounts :
Assets = Cash (0 + 7,200), Bank (10,000), Debtors 3,600 Stock (10,000 – 9,000)
Asset = Cash 7,200 + Bank 10,000 + Debtor 3,600 + Stock 1,000 = 21,800
Capital (15,000 + 1,800) = 16,800
Liability (Creditors) = 5,000
Total Assets (21,800) = Capital (16,800) + Liability (5,000)

DOUBLE ENTRY SYSTEM
This system was introduced by Iuco Pacioli, an Italian,
during the year 1494. According to this system, every
transaction has two aspects. Both the aspects are
recorded in the books of accounts. Accordingly one is
giving aspect and the other one is receiving aspect. Each
aspect will be recorded in one account and this method of
writing every transactions in two accounts is known as
Double Entry System of bookkeeping. For example,
Purchase of machinery for cash, in this transaction
receiving machinery is one aspect is said to be an account
is debited and giving cash is another aspect is said to be
an account is credited with an equal amount. Thus, the
basic principle of this system is that for every debit there
must be a corresponding and equal credit and for every
credit there must be a corresponding and equal debit.
Advantages of Double Entry System
(1)This system provides information about the concern
as a whole.
(2) It is possible to evaluate the operational efficiency
of the
concern.
(3)This system helps to ascertain the profit or loss
by preparing profit and loss account and balance
sheet.
(4) Accuracy of accounting records can be verified
by
preparing a Trail Balance.
(5) This system helps to know the financial
position of a
concern for a particular period.
(6)It provides information for meeting various

prime or journal. Thus journal is a simple book of
accounts in
which all the business transactions are originally
recorded in chronological order and from which
they are posted to the ledger accounts at
any
convenient time. Journalising refers to the act of
recording each transaction in the journal and the
form in which it is recorded, is known as a

Ledger
A ledger is a book containing
accounts in which the classified
and summarized information
from the journals is posted as
debits and credits. It is also
called the second book of entry.
TRIAL BALANCE
At the end of the financial period (or
at some other date) these balances
are extracted and a schedule is
prepared in journal form is called a
Trial Balance.
Thus the total of debit balances
appearing in the Trial Balance must
agree with the total of credit
balances
of appearing in the Trial Balance.
OBJECTS OF PREPARING
TRIAL BALANCE :
1.It forms the very basic on which final
accounts are prepared.
2.Ithelps in knowing the balance on any
particular account in the ledger.
3. It is used as a test of arithmetical accuracy.

principle
is
disregarded e.g. a capital item as revenue item and vice versa, i.e.
purchase of furniture posted to Purchases Account.
SUSPENSE ACCOUNT
The difference in the Trial Balance may be put in
an account known as the Suspense Account,
where the error causing difference cannot be
located immediately and the books of accounts
have to be closed. Suspense account is an account
to which the difference in the trial balance has
been put temporarily. If the debit side is short this
account is debited and if the credit side is short it
will be credited. However the opening of a
suspense account does not mean that the errors
need not be found out.
TRADING ACCOUNT
Trading account is prepared for an accounting period to find
the trading results or gross margin of the business i.e., the
amount of gross profit the concern has made from buying
and selling during the accounting period. The difference
between the sales and cost of sales is gross profit. For the
purpose of computing cost of sales, value of opening stock
of finished goods, purchases, direct expenses on purchasing
and manufacturing are added up and closing stock of
finished goods is reduced. The balance of this account
shows gross profit or loss which is transferred to the profit
and
loss account.

PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT
In the words of Prof. Carter “Profit and loss account is
an account into which all gains and losses are collected in
order to ascertain the excess of gains over the losses or vice
versa.” Profit and loss account starts with gross profit brought
down from trading account on the credit side. (If gross loss, on
the debit side). All the indirect expenses are debited and all the
revenue incomes are credited to the profit and loss account
and then net profit or loss is calculated. If incomes or credit is
more, than the expenses or debit, the difference is net profit. On
the other hand if the expenses or debit side is more, the
difference is net loss.

BALANCE SHEET
The Balance sheet comprises of lists of assets, liabilities
and capital fund on a given date. It presents
the financial position of a concern as revealed
by the accounting records. It reflects the assets owned
by the concern and the sources of funds used in the
acquisition of those assets. In simple language it is
prepared in such a way that true
financial position is revealed in a form easily readable
and more rapidly understood than would be possible
from a view of the detailed information
contained in the accounting records prepared during
the currency of the accounting period. Balance
sheet may be called a ‘statement of equality’ in
which equality is established by representing values of
assets on one side and values of liabilities and owners'
