Financial accounting
Financial accounting is the way toward getting ready budget summaries that organizations'
utilization to demonstrate their budgetary presentation and position to individuals outside the
organization, Including speculators, loan bosses, providers, and clients. The principle goal of
financial accounting is to grandstand an exact and reasonable picture of money related issues
of the organization[CITATION Placeholder3 \l 1033 ].

Purpose of financial accounting


It's important to point out that the purpose of financial accounting is not to report the value
of a company. Rather, its purpose is to provide enough information for others to assess the
value of a company for themselves.

The main purpose of financial accounting is to prepare financial reports that provide
information about a firm's performance to external parties such as investors, creditors, and
tax authorities. Also to provide the information that is needed for sound economic decision
making.

Accounting cycle
The accounting cycle is a procession of steps that begins with the recording of a transaction and ends
with the inclusion of that transaction in the financial statements. There are a series of steps ranging
from 8-9 processes, depending on the method you follow, that are worked through before you can
consider a cycle complete.

These cycles will cumulate into the recorded entries for a particular accounting period whether it be


end of month, quarterly, or yearly[ CITATION Don15 \l 1033 ].

There are six steps in accounting cycle and they are as follow:

 Source Documents
 Books of original entries (Day Book)
 Double Entry
 Trial Balance
 Year End Adjustments
 Financial Statement
Source Documents
Source documents are the physical foundation upon which business transactions are recorded.
Source documents are typically retained for use as evidence when auditors later review a
company's financial statements, and need to verify that transactions have, in fact, occurred.
They usually contain the following information:

 A description of a business transaction

 The date of the transaction

 A specific amount of money

 An authorizing signature

Many source documents are also stamped to indicate an approval, or on which to write down
the current date or the accounts to be used to record the underlying transaction. A source
document does not have to be a paper document. It can also be electronic, such as an
electronic record of the hours worked by an employee, as entered into a company's
timekeeping system through a smartphone[ CITATION Ste192 \l 1033 ].

Books of Prime Entry


A daybook is a book of original entry in which an accountant records transactions by date, as
they occur. This information is later transferred into a ledger, from which the information is
summarized into a set of financial statements. Daybooks are only used in a manual accounting
environment, and so are not commonly found in a modern accounting system [ CITATION Ste18 \l
1033 ].

Double Entry
In a double accounting or bookkeeping system, for each transaction, the amounts need to be
recorded in at least two accounts. All transactions are required for a dual entry system. The
amount entered as debit must be equal to the amount entered as credit [ CITATION Ave04 \l
1033 ].

Trial Balance
Trial Balance is a rundown of shutting adjusts of record accounts on a specific date and is the
initial move towards the planning of financial statements. It is usually prepared at the end of an
accounting period to assist in the drafting of financial statements. The debit balance amounts
are listed in a column with the heading "Debit balances" and the credit balance amounts are
listed in another column with the heading "Credit balances" [ CITATION Can10 \l 1033 ].

Year End Adjustment


Year-end adjustments are journal entries made to various general ledger accounts at the end of
the fiscal year, to create a set of books that is in compliance with the applicable accounting
framework. A number of year-end adjustments may be required, depending on how diligently
the books have been maintained on a monthly basis. The number of these adjustments that are
needed has a direct impact on the time required to close the books [ CITATION Ste182 \l 1033 ].

Financial Statement
Financial statements provide a picture of the performance, financial position, and cash flows of
a business. These documents are used by the investment community, lenders, creditors, and
management to evaluate an entity. There are four main types of financial statements, which
are as follows:

Income statement. This report reveals the financial performance of an organization for the
entire reporting period. It begins with sales, and then subtracts out all expenses incurred during
the period to arrive at a net profit or loss. An earnings per share figure may also be added if the
financial statements are being issued by a publicly-held company. This is usually considered the
most important financial statement, since it describes performance.

Balance sheet. This report shows the financial position of a business as of the report date (so it
covers a specific point in time). The information is aggregated into the general classifications of
assets, liabilities, and equity. Line items within the asset and liability classification are presented
in their order of liquidity, so that the most liquid items are stated first. This is a key document,
and so is included in most issuances of the financial statements.

Statement of cash flows. This report reveals the cash inflows and outflows experienced by an
organization during the reporting period. These cash flows are broken down into three
classifications, which are operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. This
document can be difficult to assemble, and so is more commonly issued only to outside parties.
Statement of changes in equity. This report documents all changes in equity during the
reporting period. These changes include the issuance or purchase of shares, dividends issued,
and profits or losses. This document is not usually included when the financial statements are
issued internally, as the information in it is not overly useful to the management team [ CITATION
Ste193 \l 1033 ].

Historical Cost Concept


The authentic cost concept expresses that organizations must record and record for most
resources and liabilities at their buy or procurement cost. As such, organizations need to record
an advantage on their accounting report for the sum paid for the benefit (My Accounting
Course, 2018).

Money Measurement Concept


The money measurement concept expresses that a business should possibly record a
bookkeeping exchange on the off chance that it very well may be communicated regarding
cash. This implies the focal point of bookkeeping exchanges is on quantitative data, as opposed
to on subjective data (Bragg, 2018).

Business Entity concept


Business entity concept -it is one of the accounting concepts. It makes us understand that the Business is
a separate entity other than the proprietor, creditors, managers.

There should be an appropriate and separate book of account for recording the business transaction.

And all the accounting records should be from the business point of view.

Example- capital is treated as the liability for the business .and capital is treated as the asset for the
owner/proprietor….

But in the book of accounts the capital should be recorded as liability. (this is because all accounting
records should be from the business point of view)[ CITATION Bha19 \l 1033 ].

Dual Aspect Concept


The dual aspect concept states that every business transaction requires recordation in two
different accounts. This concept is the basis of double entry accounting, which is required by
all accounting frameworks in order to produce reliable financial statements. The concept is derived from
the accounting equation, which states that:

Assets = Liabilities + Equity


The accounting equation is made visible in the balance sheet, where the total amount of assets listed
must equal the total of all liabilities and equity. One part of most business transactions will have an
impact in some way on the balance sheet, so at least one part of every transaction will involve either
assets, liabilities, or equity[ CITATION Acc181 \l 1033 ].

The Time Interval Concept


In Accounting, also known as the Accounting Period Concept. Where business operation can be divided
into specific period of time such as a month, a quarter or a year (accounting period)

Final accounts are prepared at the end of the accounting period in one year. Internal accounts can be
prepared monthly, quarterly or half yearly[ CITATION Ans09 \l 1033 ].
