Fundamental conceptsWhat is accounting?The language of business.A means to communicate financial
information.A way to convey information about a business
to users.
“Accounting is the process of recording, classifying and summarizing in a significant manner and in terms of money, transactions and events which are, in part, at least of a financial character and interpreting the results thereof.”As financial Accounting seeks to measure the financial performance and position of the business, we need to first understand the anatomy of business, then we will move over to the accounting process.
INDIA- THE PLACE OF ORIGIN OF MODERN ACCOUNTINGThe birth of double entry book keeping is
suggested to have been at the hands of a Franciscan Monk , Luca Pacioli who published a book in 1494 which includes a treatise on book keeping.
However sufficient evidence exists to lead one to believe that the art and practice of Accounting as a highly developed system was existing in India even during the time of Vedas, Sutras and the Upanishads.
Fundamental conceptsWho uses accounting information?OwnersManagersInvestors (including potential)
Analysts on their behalfCreditors (including potential)Government (tax assessment)RegulatorsCustomers
DivisionsAccounting has two main divisions:Financial accounting
Primarily prepared for users external to the company. Revenues, earnings, assets, etc.
Management accountingPrimarily for internal purposes
Costing, budgeting, net present value, etc.
We will focus only on financial accounting. We say the terms Managerial Accounting and financial Accounting interchangeably.
Fundamental conceptsThere are several ways that cash gets into a
company:Investment by ownersInvestment by creditors (loans)Payments from customers.Repayment of amounts loaned to other
entities.Return on investments (interest and
dividend)Proceeds from selling assets.
Cont..These can be organized into three categories:OperationsPayments from customersRefunds from suppliersFinancingInvestment by ownersInvestment by creditors (loans)InvestingReturn on investments (interest and dividend)Proceeds from selling assetsRepayment of amounts loaned to other entities
Fundamental conceptsSimilarly, money going out of an entity can be
categorized:OperationsPayments to suppliersRefunds to customersFinancingPayment of dividends or capital to ownersRepayment of creditorsInvestingPurchase of assetsAmounts invested in other entities (debt or equity)
Fundamental ConceptsFinancial accounting categorizes all transactions
and events based on their substance.It is very important that the substance of a
transaction be accurately reflected by financial accounting because the users of the information are using it with the assumption that these categorizations are being made accurately. If money invested by owners was reported as
revenue, this would be counter to the fundamental definition of revenue (i.e. that it results from the operations of the company).
The separation of income and capital is a fundamental concept of financial accounting.
