• Transactions are events that transfer or change goods or services between or among two or more entities.
• Business documents, such as invoices, provide evidence that transactions have occurred as well as the data required to record the transactions in the accounting records.
Accounting Terminology

• Double-entry accounting is an old and universally accepted system for recording accounting data.
• Each transaction is recorded in a way that maintains the equality of the basic accounting equation:
Assets = Liabilities + Owners’ Equity

• A debit is an entry on the left side of an account.
• Assets, expenses, and dividends are increased by debits and decreased by credits.
• A credit is an entry on the right side of an account.
• Liabilities, capital stock, retained earnings, and revenues are increased by credits and decreased by debits.
Accounting Terminology

Three-Step Journal Entry Process
1. Identify the accounts involved with an event or transaction.
2. Determine whether each account increased or decreased (this information, coupled with the answer to step 1, will tell you if the account was debited or credited).
3. Determine the amount by which each account was affected.
![Page 8: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
2-8
Analyzing Business Documents
• The business document provides support for the data to be recorded in the journals.
• Documents underlying each recorded transaction provide a means of verifying the accounting records and thus form a vital part of the information and control systems.
• Normally, a business document, or source document, is the first record of each transaction.
![Page 9: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2-9
Journalizing Transactions
• The general journal is used to record all transactions for which a special journal is not maintained.
• A special journal is used to record a particular type of frequently recurring transaction.
• Once the information provided on business documents has been analyzed, transactions are recorded in chronological order in the appropriate journal or journals.
![Page 10: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2-10
• An account is used to summarize the effects of transactions on each element of the expanded accounting equation.
• A ledger is a collection of accounts maintained by a business.
• The transfer of information from the journal to the appropriate accounts in the ledger is referred to as posting.
Posting to the Ledger Accounts
![Page 11: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
2-11
• The general ledger includes all accounts appearing on the financial statements, and separate subsidiary ledgers afford additional detail in support of certain general ledger accounts.
• The general ledger account that summarizes the detailed information in a subsidiary ledger is known as a control account.
Establishing Separate Ledgers
![Page 12: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
2-12
Preparing a Trial Balance
• After all transactions for the period have been posted to the ledger accounts, the balance for each account is determined.
• A trial balance is a list of all accounts and their balances.
• It provides a means to assure that total debits equal total credits.
![Page 13: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2-13
Preparing Adjusting Entries• Although the majority of accounts are up to date at the end of the accounting period and their balances can
be included in the financial statements, some accounts require adjustment to reflect current circumstances.• At the end of each accounting period, in order to report all asset, liability, and owners’ equity amounts
properly and to recognize all revenues and expenses for the period on an accrual basis, accountants are required to make adjusting entries prior to preparing financial statements.
![Page 14: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
2-14
Steps to Analyze Circumstances
1. Determine whether the amounts recorded for all asset and liabilities is correct.
2. Determine what revenue or expense adjustments are required as a result of the changes in recorded amounts of assets and liabilities indicated in step 1.
![Page 15: 2-1 Intermediate Financial Accounting Earl K. Stice James D. Stice © 2012 Cengage Learning PowerPoint presented by Douglas Cloud Professor Emeritus of.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062223/5a4d1b077f8b9ab059988c5b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Unearned Revenues
• Amounts received before the actual earning of revenues are known as unearned revenues.
• Because the company has received cash but not yet given the customer the purchased goods or services, the unearned revenues are in fact liabilities.

Bad Debts
• Invariably, when a business allows customers to purchase goods and services on credit, some of the accounts receivable will not be collected.
• Under the accrual concept, an adjustment should be made for estimated expense in the current period rather than when specific accounts become uncollectible.

Preparing Financial Statements
1. Identify all revenues and expenses—these account balances are used to prepare the income statement.
2. Compute the net income—subtract expenses from revenues.
3. Compute the ending Retained Earnings balance.
4. Prepare a balance sheet using the balance sheet accounts from the trial balance and the modified retained earnings balance.
