CHAPTER 3
ADJUSTING
THE ACCOUNTS
CHAPTER
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Explain
the time period assumption. The time period assumption
assumes that the economic life of a business is divided into artificial time
periods.
2. Explain
the accrual basis of accounting. Accrual-basis
accounting means that companies record events that change a company’s financial
statements in the periods in which those events occur, rather than in the
periods in which the company receives or pays cash.
3. Explain
the reasons for adjusting entries. Companies make
adjusting entries at the end of an accounting period. Such entries ensure that
companies record revenues in the period in which the performance obligation is
satisfied and recognize expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
4. Identify
the major types of adjusting entries. The
major types of adjusting entries are deferrals (prepaid expenses and unearned
revenues) and accruals (accrued revenues and accrued expenses).
5. Prepare
adjusting entries for deferrals. Deferrals are either
prepaid expenses or unearned revenues. Companies make adjusting entries for
deferrals to record the portion of the prepayment that represents the expense
incurred or the revenue for services performed in the current accounting
period.
6. Prepare
adjusting entries for accruals. Accruals are either
accrued revenues or accrued expenses. Companies make adjusting entries for
accruals to record revenues for services performed and expenses incurred in the
current accounting period that have not been recognized through daily entries.
7. Describe
the nature and purpose of an adjusted trial balance. An
adjusted trial balance shows the balances of all accounts, including those that
have been adjusted, at the end of an accounting period. Its purpose is to prove
the equality of the total debit balances and total credit balances in the
ledger after all adjustments.
a8. Prepare
adjusting entries for the alternative treatment of deferrals. Companies
may initially debit prepayments to an expense account. Likewise they may credit
unearned revenues to a revenue account. At the end of the period, these
accounts may be overstated. The adjusting entries for prepaid expenses include
a debit to an asset account and a credit to an expense account. Adjusting
entries for unearned revenues include a debit to a revenue account and a credit
to a liability account.
a9. Discuss
financial reporting concepts. To be judged useful, information
should have the primary characteristics of relevance and faithful
representation. In addition, it should be comparable, consistent, verifiable,
timely, and understandable.
The monetary
unit assumption requires that companies include in the
accounting records only transaction data that can be expressed in terms of
money. The economic
entity assumption states that economic events can be
identified with a particular unit of accountability. The time period assumption states
that the economic life of a business can be divided into artificial time
periods and that meaningful accounting reports can be prepared for each period.
The going concern
assumption states that the company will continue in operation
long enough to carry out its existing objectives and commitments.
The historical cost
principle states that companies should record assets at their
cost. The fair value
principle indicates that assets and liabilities should be
reported at fair value. The revenue
recognition principle requires that companies recognize
revenue in the accounting period in which the performance obligation is
satisfied. The expense
recognition principle dictates that efforts (expense) be
matched with results (revenues). The full
disclosure principle requires that companies disclose
circumstances and events that matter to financial statements users.
The cost constraint weighs the cost that companies incur to
provide a type of information against its benefits to financial statement
users.
