The balance sheet shows the financial position of the business. It presents the
assets of the business, its liabilities and the equity of the owner in the business.
Assets
Assets are physical things (tangible) or rights (intangible) which have monetary
values and are owned by the business entity. They are economic resources of
business that are expected to be of future benefit. Assets are commonly subdivided
into two major classifications: current assets and non-current assets.
Current assets are generally those which can be expected to provide
benefits to the business within the normal operating cycle of the business or
one year, whichever is longer.
Non-current assets are those which are used to provide the business entity
with benefits over a number of years.
Typical Account Title for Assets
Current Assets
Cash – any medium of exchange that a bank will accept at face value. It
includes coins, currency, checks, money orders, bank deposits and drafts.
Cash Equivalent – these are short-term, highly liquid investments which
are readily convertible to cash and with original maturities of three
months or less. i.e Treasury Bills
Short-term investments – investments which are readily marketable
and represents temporary investments of fund available for current
operations and are intended to meet working capital requirements.
Notes Receivable – a notes receivable is a written pledge that the
customer will pay the business a fixed amount of money on a certain date.
Accounts Receivable – these are claims against customers arising from
sale of services or goods on credit. This type of receivable offers less
security than a promissory note.
Inventory – these constitute items of tangible personal property which
are (a) held for sale in the ordinary course of business, (b) in the process
of production for such sale, or (c) to be currently consumed in the
production of goods or services to be available for sale.
Prepaid Expenses – these are expenses paid for by the business in
advance. It is an asset because the business avoids having to pay cash in
the future for a specific expense. i.e insurance
Non-current Assets
Long-term Investments – these are assets not directly identified with
the operating activities of the company or involved in the sale or
production of goods and services.
Equipment – these account records the acquisition of office machines,
desk, cars, trucks, file cabinets, and similar items. They are used in the

conduct of business and are not intended for sale in the ordinary course
of business.
Buildings – included in this account are factories, warehouses, and office
buildings.
Land – owned and used by the business entity.
Intangibles – these are relatively long-lived assets without physical
characteristics which value lies in rights, privileges and competitive
advantages, which they give the owner.
Liabilities
Liabilities are debts owed to outsiders (creditors). The economic obligations are
often identified by the account titles that include the word “payable.” They are
typically fall into two major groups: Current Liabilities and Long-term Liabilities.
Current liabilities are obligations which are reasonably expected to be settled
through the use of existing current assets or the creation of other current liabilities
within the normal operating cycle or one year, whichever is longer. Long-term
Liabilities are obligations which are payable beyond the normal operating cycle or
one year, whichever is longer or those obligations which though payable within one
year will not be liquidated by existing current assets.
Common Liability Accounts
Current Liabilities
Notes Payable – is like a note receivable but in the reverse sense. In the
case of a note payable, the business entity is the maker of the note; that is,
the business entity is the party who promises to pay the other party a
specified amount of money on a specified future date.
Accounts Payable – this account represents the reverse relationship of
accounts receivable. By accepting the goods or services, the buyer agrees
to pay for them in the future.
Accrued Liabilities – Amounts owed to others for unpaid expenses.
Unearned Revenues – When the business entity receives payment
before providing its customers with goods or services, the amounts
received are recorded in the unearned revenue account.
Long-term Liabilities
Mortgage Payable – this account records long-term debt of the business
entity for which the business entity has pledged certain assets as security
to the creditor.
Bonds Payable – business organizations often obtain substantial sums of
money from lenders to finance the acquisition of equipment and other
needed assets. They obtain the fund by issuing bonds. The bond is a
contract between the issuer and the lender specifying the terms of
repayment and the interest to be charge.

The Account
The basic summary device of accounting is the account. A separate account is maintained
for each item that appears on the balance sheet (assets, liabilities and owner’s equity) and
on the income statement (revenues and expenses). Thus, an account may be defined as a
detailed record of the increases, decreases and balance of each item that appears in an
entity’s financial statements.

The basic form of an account is the “T” account because of its similarity to the letter “T”.
The account has three parts as shown below:
Account Title
Normal Balance:
DR: Assets, Expenses
CR: Liabilities, Owner’s Equity and Income
The Chart of Accounts
A listing of all the accounts and their account numbers in the ledger is known as chart of
accounts. The chart is arranged in the financial statement order, that is, assets first (from
current assets to non-current assets), followed by liabilities (from current to non-current
liabilities), owner’s equity, revenues and expenses. The amount should numbered in a
flexible manner to permit indexing and cross-referencing.
When analyzing transactions, the accountant refers to the chart of accounts to identify the
pertinent accounts to be increased or decreased. If an appropriate account title is not listed
in the chart, an additional account may be added.

Financial statements tell us how a business is performing. They are the final product of the
accounting process. The most basic tool of accounting is the accounting equation. This
equation presents the resources of the business and the claims against these resources.
The accounting equation states that assets must always equal liabilities and owner’s
equity. The basic accounting model is:

Every accountable event has a dual but self-balancing effect on the accounting
equation. These events may be grouped into nine types of effects as follows:

ANALYZING DOCUMENTS
Transaction Analysis
Invoices are documents listing goods or services provided, as well as their prices.
They are the primary source documents for sales and similar forms of income.
Businesses normally send an invoice together with goods (or once services have
been delivered) so as to indicate the amount of payment required to be paid to
them.
In addition, invoices often indicate when the payment is to be made, the business
banking details, etc.
Official Receipts evidences the receipt of cash by the seller or a service provider.
Receipts thus normally relate to payment that has been made by cash or through a
debit or credit card.
Where checks are used by a business to make payments, check counterfoils serve as
the source documents.
A check counterfoil is the part of the check kept by the drawer (writer) of the check
as a record of the transaction - a record that the check was written and the payment
was made.
Payment Confirmations are documents serving as proof that payment has been
made by electronic transfer (payments made through the internet, using a

Negotiation Skills Checked by: LIHKS
Historical Cost. Assets acquired, as stated by this principle, should be recorded at
their actual or historical cost and not at what the management thinks they are
worth at the reporting date.
Adequate Disclosure. Requires that all relevant information that would affect
user’s understanding and assessment of the accounting entity should be disclosed in
the financial statements.
Consistency Principle. States that firms should use the same accounting method
from period to period in order to achieve comparability over time within the single
enterprise. Changes however are permitted provided it is justifiable and is
disclosed in the financial statements.
Accounting equation is the most basic tool of accounting. It states that assets always equal
liabilities and owner’s equity. A business transaction is the occurrence of an event or a
condition that affects the financial position and can be reliably recorded.
Every financial transaction can be analyzed and expressed in terms of its effect on the
accounting equation. The financial transactions will be analyzed by means of a financial
transaction worksheet which is a form used to analyzed increases and decreases in the
assets, liabilities or owner’s equity of a business entity.
