monetary transactions.

commonly-followed accounting rules
and standards for financial reporting.

can be loosely defined as
one where someone
makes or receives a
payment and includes
deposits, withdrawals,
and exchanges.
Monetary transaction
5
Nature of Accounting Principles:
They do not exist in nature, they are
developed by humans in light of what we
view as the most important objectives of
financial reporting.

Accounting Assumptions
(GAAP)
 Economic entity assumption. Financial records must
be separately maintained for each economic entity.
 Monetary unit assumption. An economic entity's
accounting records include only quantifiable
transactions.
 Full disclosure principle. Financial statements
normally provide information about a company's past
performance.
 Time period assumption. Most businesses exist for
long periods of time, so artificial time periods must
be used to report the results of business activity.

What is the installment
payment method?
Instalment payments refer to a
customer paying a bill in small
portions throughout a fixed period
of time. Instalment payments are a
payment plan arranged between
