 In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP).
Accrual- versus Cash-Basis Accounting
LO 1 4

recognition principles are followed.
 Necessary because the trial balance may not contain up-
to-date and complete data.
 Required every time a company prepares financial

b. revenues are recorded in the period in which
services are performed.
c. balance sheet and income statement accounts
have correct balances at the end of an accounting

used or consumed.
Deferrals
1. Accrued Revenues.
Revenues for services
performed but not yet received
in cash or recorded.
2. Accrued Expenses.

 Buildings, equipment, and motor vehicles (assets
that provide service for many years) are recorded as
assets, rather than an expense, on the date
acquired.
 Depreciation is the process of allocating the cost of
an asset to expense over its useful life.
 Depreciation does not attempt to report the actual
change in the value of the asset.
► Allocation concept, not a valuation concept.
