3. TOPICS TO BE COVERED
1. Principles of Accounting
2. Cash Flow Statement
3. Marketable Securities
5. 1. Cost Principle
The cost principle states that the actual cost of assets
must be recorded instead of recording the cost based
on market value or inflation adjustment.
This ensures that the recorded cost of inventory and
other purchases is reflected accurately in the
accounting ledger. The principle is sometimes referred
to as the “Historical Cost Principle" because costs are
recorded based on the actual cost at the time of
purchase instead of being an estimated or adjusted
cost recorded at a later time.
6. 2. Revenue Principle / Accrual Principle
The revenue principle states that revenue should be
recorded at the time that it is earned, not at the time
when payment is received.
This prevents errors in accounting caused by delayed
payments since any money still owed to the company is
evident within the accounting ledger. The revenue
principle also serves as the basis for the accrual
accounting method, causing it to occasionally be
referred to as the "accrual principle.
7. 3. Matching Principle
The matching principle states that each expense item
related to revenue earned must be recorded in the
same accounting period as the revenue it helped to
earn.
If this is not done, the financial statements will not
measure the results of operations fairly.
8. 4. Principle of Adequate Disclosure
The Principle of Adequate Disclosure states that any and
all information that affects the full understanding of a
company's financial statements must be included in the
financial statements. The items which may not affect
the ledger accounts directly, would be included in the
form of accompanying notes. Examples of such items
are outstanding lawsuits, tax disputes, and company
takeovers.
9. 5. Business Entity Principle
A business is considered a separate entity from the
owner(s) and should be treated separately. Any
personal transactions of its owner should not be
recorded in the business accounting book, vice versa.
Unless the owner’s personal transaction involves adding
and/or withdrawing resources from the business.
10. 6. Going Concern Principle
It assumes that an entity will continue to operate for an
indefinite period of time. In this basis, assets are recorded
based on their original cost and not on market value.
Assets are assumed to be used for an indefinite period of
time and not intended to be sold immediately.
11. 7. Monetary Unit Principle
All the business financial transactions recorded in the
books of accounts should be in monetary unit, such as
Pakistani Rupees (Rs.), US Dollar, Euro, etc.
So, any non-financial or non-monetary information that
cannot be measured in a monetary unit is not recorded
in the accounting books.
12. 8. Accounting Period Principle
This principle states that a business has to complete the
whole accounting process of a business over a specific
operating time period. It may be monthly, quarterly or
annually. For annual accounting period, it may follow a
Calendar or Fiscal Year.
13. 9. Conservatism Principle
The Conservatism Principle is the general concept of
recognizing expenses and liabilities as soon as possible
when there is uncertainty about the outcome, but to only
recognize revenues and assets when they are assured of
being received. This Principle leads accountants to
anticipate or disclose losses, but it does not allow a
similar action for gains.
For example: potential losses from lawsuits will be
reported on the financial statements or in the notes, but
potential gains will not be reported.
14. 10. Objectivity Principle
This principle requires recorded business transactions
should have some form of impartial supporting evidence
or documentation. Also, it entails that bookkeeping and
financial recording should be performed with
independence, that’s free of bias and prejudice.
15. Statement of Cash Flow
A financial statement which summarizes cash
transactions of a business during a given accounting
period and classifies them under three heads, namely,
cash flows from operating, investing and financing
activities.
It shows how cash moved during the period by
indicating whether a particular line item is a cash in-flow
or a cash out-flow.
The term cash as used in the statement of cash flows
refers to both cash and cash equivalents.
It provides relevant information in assessing a company's
liquidity, quality of earnings and solvency.
16. 1. Cash Flows from Operating Activities:

generation activities such as sale and purchase of goods
and services.
2. Cash Flows from Investing Activities:

intended to generate income and cash flows in future. This
includes cash in- flows and out-flows from sale and
purchase of long-term assets.
