9|P age

Congratulations! You were able to distinguish your greatest asset. Now let’s explore Accounting
and its basic concepts.

History of Accounting

A Franciscan monk named FRIAR LUCA PACIOLI is credited


with the ownership of the first written work about algebra, geometry and
bookkeeping. It was entitled “summa de Arithmetica, Geometrica,
Proportioni et Proportionalita (Everything about Arithmetic, Geometry,
Proportions and Proportionality). He was also considered as the father
of double-entry bookkeeping, and also referred to as the father of
accounting. Friar Luca Pacioli

Accounting and Bookkeeping Defined

According to Accounting Standards Council (ASC), accounting is defined as follows:

• It is a service activity. Its function is to provide quantitative information, primarily financial in


nature, about economic entities that are useful in making economic decisions and reasoned
choices among alternative courses of action.
• Coined as the language of the business.
• It is also defined as the art of recording, classifying and summarizing, in a significant manner
and in terms of money, transactions and events which are part at least of a financial character
and interpreting the results thereof.

Three phases of accounting:

• Recording/Bookkeeping – The process of systematically maintain a record of all business


transactions, usually done in chronological order.
• Classifying – The sorting or grouping of similar and interrelated transactions in their respective
class.
• Summarizing – The preparation of financial statements -- the end-product of the accounting
process. It provides information about the financial position and performance of the enterprise

The Role of Accounting in Business

In general, accounting as an information system, provide reports about economic activities and
condition of a business. Accounting provides the necessary information essential in the formulation
and execution of business and non-business policies. For example, Accounting reports summarizing
the profitability of a product help management decide whether to continue selling a product or not.
10 | P a g e

Businesspeople must have an orderly wat to keep tract of the countless and varied financial
transactions that occur. Managers can look at the summarized information from the reports and
determine if the business is operating at a profit. Business establishments and the government
acknowledge accounting as an essential tool of management.

The Specialized Fields of Accounting

• Public Accounting – Provides accounting services to the general public. Certified Public
Accountants (CPA) are engaged in this kind of practice. They render services such as auditing,
taxation, and management advisory, etc. to the clients. Auditing attest the accuracy and fairness
of presentation of the accounting data. It involves the independent examination of financial
statements. Taxation include offering advice on tax, calculating tax liability and completing tax
returns. Management Advisory offers examining and providing cost information to the internal
management in order to facilitate planning, controlling, and decision making.
• Private Accounting – Provides accounting services to private companies. Private accountants
may or may not be CPAs.
• Government Accounting – Is a field of specialization wherein accountants are responsible for
the accumulation of accounting data for governmental units.
• Research and Education – Accountants who impart knowledge, expertise, and skills to the
academe. Only CPA’s can practice this profession. They are employed as instructors,
professors, reviewers, or researchers.

Forms of Business Organizations

• Single Proprietorship / Sole Proprietorship – Is a business owned and managed by only one
individual. He is called the proprietor. This is the easiest form of organization to organize.
• Partnership – A contract whereby two or more persons bind themselves to contribute money,
property, or industry into a common fund with the intention of diving profit among themselves.
• Corporation – Is an artificial being created by operation of law, having the right of succession
and the powers, attributes and properties expressly authorized by law or incident to its existence.

Types of Business

• Service Business – Performs services to customers or clients for a fee. Examples are repair
shops, beauty parlors, medical or health clinic, etc.
• Merchandising Business – Also known as trading business, they purchase goods in salable form
and sell them to make a profit. Examples are grocery stores, department stores, supermarket,
etc.
11 | P a g e

• Manufacturing Business – Makes finished goods from the obtained raw materials and supplies.
Examples are shoe factories, garment factories, clothing manufacturers, etc.

Good job! You were able to give and explain the different specialized accounting fields. Now
let’s continue exploring about Accounting.

The Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)

It defines what is accepted accounting practice and they are like laws that must be followed in
financial reporting.

• Business entity concept – The business entity is treated as a separate and distinct from its
owner/s and from other business units. The personal transactions of the owner should not be
merged with that of the business he owns.
• Going concern or continuity assumption – This assumes that unless there is evidence to the
contrary, the business will continue to operate for an indefinite period.
• Time period assumption - Requires that the indefinite life of the business be divided into
accounting periods for the preparation of the financial statements.
Accounting periods:
o Monthly basis (shortest accounting period)
o Quarterly (every 3 months)
o Semi-annually (every six months)
o Annually (one year)
• Unit of measurement assumption - Accounting results must be reported in terms of monetary
unit such as the Philippine Peso.
• Revenue recognition – Revenue is recognized when it is earned regardless of collection.
• Expense recognition – Expenses are recognized when incurred regardless of payments.
• Matching concept – Determining net income is a two-fold process of matching revenue for the
period with expenses incurred in generating revenue.

Basic Financial Statements of Business Organizations

• Income Statement / Statement of Comprehensive Income – Shows the summary of the


company’s revenue and expenses in a given period.
• Balance Sheet / Statement of Financial Position – Shows the list of a company’s asset, liabilities,
and owner’s equity as of a specific date. It shows the financial condition of an enterprise as of a
particular date.
15 | P a g e

• Capital Statement / Statement of Changes in Owner’s Equity – Shows the summary of changes
in the owner’s equity that have occurred during a specific period of time.
• Statement of Cash Flows – Shows the proper presentation of the three types of business
activities: operating, investing, and financing. A cash flow statement summarizes the amount of
cash and cash equivalents entering and leaving a company.

Qualitative Characteristics of Financial Statement

• Understandability - It must be presented in a form and expressed in terminology that a user


understand.
• Reliability - It is free from errors and bias and can be depended upon by users to represent
faithfully what it purports to presents.
• Relevance - Influence the economic decisions of users helping them to form predictions about
the outcome of past, present, and future events.
• Comparability - Means the ability to bring together for the purpose of noting points of likeness
and differences. Users must be able to compare the financial statements of an entity through
time in order to identify trends in its financial position and performance from one accounting
period to the next.

Elements of Financial Statements

The five (5) basic classification of accounts are as follows:

• Assets - Everything that is owned by the business. These are the resources controlled by the
enterprise as a result of past transactions and events from which future economic benefits are
expected to flow to the enterprise.
Examples of asset accounts:
o Cash - Any medium of exchange that the bank will accept at face value (coins, paper bills,
checks).
o Accounts Receivable - Claims against debtors or customers from services rendered or
sale of merchandise on account.
o Notes Receivable - Claims against debtors evidenced with a promissory note.
o Merchandise Inventory – Are goods on hand and are available for sale.
o Office Supplies - Supplies being used by the business (paper, pens, pencils).
o Office Equipment - Tangible assets used in the operation of the business.
16 | P a g e

o Furniture and Fixtures - Properties owned by the business which are not part of the
building itself.
o Prepaid Expenses - Expenses paid in advance. Example: three months’ rent paid in
advance (Prepaid Rent)
o Intangible Assets - Assets with no physical substance but are expected to provide future
economic benefits to the business (franchise, copyright, trademarks).

• Liabilities - Everything that is owed by the business. These are financial obligations or debts.
Examples of liability accounts:
o Accounts Payable - Amounts due to creditors for assets acquired on account.
o Notes Payable - Amounts due to creditors evidenced by a promissory note.
o Mortgage Payable – Are long term debts secured by a collateral.
o Salaries Payable - Unpaid salaries of the employees at the end of the accounting period.
o Taxes Payable - Present obligation due to the government.
o Interest Payable - Interest incurred mounted from a loan but unpaid at the end of the
accounting period.
o Unearned Revenue - Revenue collected but not yet earned.

• Capital - It represents the equity or claims of the owner on the assets of the business.
Examples of capital accounts:
o Owner’s Capital
o Owner’s Drawing / Owner’s Withdrawal – Charged to this are cash or other assets
withdrawn or taken by the owner from the business for personal use.

• Revenue - Gross inflow of economic benefits.


Examples of revenue accounts are: Sales, Service Revenue, Professional Fees, Rent Revenue,
Subscription Revenue.

• Expense - Gross outflow of economic benefits.


Examples of expense accounts are: Salaries Expense, Rent Expense, Advertising Expense,
Travelling Expense, Insurance Expense, Utilities Expense.

Business Transactions Defined

A business transaction is any event that affects any of the basic accounting elements. This
occurs from ordinary business activities like rendering services, selling, purchasing, producing, and the
like.

It is a must that business transactions are to be analyzed, recorded, and summarized. The result
of which is to generate financial reports, which are necessary for making economic decisions.

Two categories:

• Internal business transaction – When the transaction occur is within the business and does not
involve any outsiders.
• External business transaction – When the transaction is between the business and an outsider.

Source documents are evidence of the economic activities of business enterprise.

Steps in Analyzing Business Transactions

• Determine the accounts involved or affected by the given transaction. There are always two or
more accounts involved or affected.
• Determine the effect of the given transaction on the accounts involved. The effect is either
increase or decrease.

All transactions are to be analyzed on the point of view of the enterprise. Examples:

26 | P a g e

Great! You now have the mastery of analyzing business transactions! Get ready for the next
lesson.

The Accounting Equation

Originally the accounting equation states that:


Assets = Equity
However, equity pertains to the right to properties which are equity to creditors (liabilities) and
equity of the owner (capital).
Thus, the equation was derived into:
Assets = Liabilities + Capital (Owner’s Equity)

The left side of the equation represents the asses while the right side represents the liabilities
and the owner’s equity. It should be noted that the equation must be maintained balance.

Furthermore, from the equation above, the following equations can also be derived:
Capital = Assets – Liabilities
Liabilities = Assets – Owner’s Equity

Here’s an activity for you to understand the concept of the equation.

Instructions: Provide the correct answer.


1. Mars Company: 2. Venus Company:
Assets = 150,000 Assets = 180,000
Liabilities = 100,000 Liabilities = _____________?
Owner’s Equity = _____________? Owner’s Equity = 120,000
3. Saturn Company: 4. Jupiter Company:
Assets = _____________? Assets = 300,000
Liabilities = 150,000 Liabilities = _____________?
Owner’s Equity = 110,000 Owner’s Equity = 180,000

Great! You were able to grasp the idea of the accounting equation. Let’s now use the
accounting equation in analyzing business transactions.
27 | P a g e

Tabular Analysis of Business Transactions

Let’s check the effect of the business transactions to the accounting equation.

The following are the business transactions of Cruz Repair Shop for the month of May 2020:

May 2 Mr. Juan Cruz invested P50,000 cash to start his own repair shop.

ASSETS = LIABILITIES + Capital

Date Cash Accounts Office Office Accounts Notes J. Cruz,


Receivable Supplies Equipment Payable Payable Capital
May 2 50 000 50 000

Assets = P50 000 Liabilities + Capital = P50 000

• The transaction above explains that assets will increase by P50 000 due to the investment of
the owner with a corresponding increase in the capital of the same amount. Hence, the
accounting equation is balance (P50 000 = P50 000).

Now, let’s proceed with the succeeding transactions of Cruz Repair Shop.

May 4 Purchased office supplies for P7,500 paying cash.

ASSETS = LIABILITIES + Capital

Date Cash Accounts Office Office Accounts Notes J. Cruz,


Receivable Supplies Equipment Payable Payable Capital
May 2 50 000
May 4 (7 500) 7 500
Balance 42 500 7 500 50 000
Assets = P50 000 Liabilities + Capital = P50 000

• In this transaction, only the asset side of the equation was affected. The purchased of office
supplies using cash resulted in a decrease in cash and an increase in office supplies. There is
a zero effect on both sides of the equation. Hence, the equation is still balance (P50 000 = P50
000).
28 | P a g e

May 6 Purchased equipment on account for P25,600.

ASSETS = LIABILITIES + Capital

Date Cash Accounts Office Office Accounts Notes J. Cruz,


Receivable Supplies Equipment Payable Payable Capital

Balance 42 500 7 500 25 600 25 600 50 000
Assets = P75 600 Liabilities + Capital = P75 600

• In this transaction, the purchased of office equipment increased the assets of the business.
However, it was purchased on account. It means that the liabilities of the business will also
increase in the form of accounts payable. As you can see, the accounting equation is still
balance (P75 600 = P75 600).

May 8 Borrowed money from bank by giving a 6-month, non-interest bearing note for P20,000.

ASSETS = LIABILITIES + Capital

Date Cash Accounts Office Office Accounts Notes J. Cruz,

Assets = P95 600 Liabilities + Capital = P95 600

• There is an increase in cash and also an increase in the business’ notes payable. The
accounting equation remained balance (P95 600 = P95 600).

May 10 Paid P12,800 for the equipment purchased on account.

ASSETS = LIABILITIES + Capital

• The cash and the accounts payable were decreased because of the transaction.

Good job! You were able to provide the definition and even examples of a service business.
You are now ready for the next lesson.

Overview of the Accounting Process

Accounting process or the accounting cycle consists of the sequence of steps that must be followed
within the accounting period. In order, these are as follows:

1. Analyzing business transactions by examining source documents


2. Journalizing
3. Posting
4. Preparing a trial balance
5. Gathering of necessary adjustment data
6. Preparing a worksheet
7. Preparing the financial statements
8. Journalizing and posting the adjusting entries
9. Journalizing and posting the closing entries
10. Journalizing the post-closing trial balance
11. Preparation of reversing entries
Debit and Credit Rules

The words debit and credit came from Latin words debere and credere. The former means “to
owe” while the latter means “to trust or believe”. Hence, debit is abbreviated as Dr. and credit as Cr.
In accounting, the increase or decrease of an account is interpreted as debit and credit.

Rules of Debit and Credit


Accounts Increase Decrease Normal Balance
Assets Debit Credit Debit
Liabilities Credit Debit Credit
Capital Credit Debit Credit
Drawing Debit Credit Debit
Revenue Credit Debit Credit
Expenses Debit Credit Debit
• It is important to fully understand these rules in order to facilitate the journalizing process
correctly.
36 | P a g e

• The rules dictate that for assets, drawings, and expenses, an increase would mean debit while
a decrease would mean credit, and the normal balance of which is debit.
• On the other hand, for liabilities, capital, and revenue, an increase would mean credit while a
decrease would mean debit, and the normal balance of which is credit.

Let us recall the transactions of Cruz Repair Shop to further illustrate the application of the above
rules. The accounts affected with their corresponding debit and credit rules are as follows:

May 2 Mr. Juan Cruz invested P50,000 cash to start his own repair shop.

Accounts affected Effect Rule


Cash Increase Debit
J. Cruz, Capital Increase Credit
• As the rule dictates, an increase in asset would mean debit, that is why cash is debited. An
increase in capital would mean credit, that is why J. Cruz, Capital is credited.

Great! You now have the understanding of the debit and credit rules. Let’s proceed to the
next lesson.

Accounts and T-accounts

An account is an individual record of each asset, liability, capital, drawing, revenue, and expense
items in which the effects (increase or decrease) of busines transactions are recorded.

This is an example of the T-account for cash account.

It is similar to capital letter T that is why it is called T-account. The T-account has three parts:
The account name, which is written at the top of letter T, and the left side (debit) and the right side
(credit).

Chart of Accounts

A chart of accounts is a list of assets, liabilities, capital, drawing, revenues, and expenses
applicable to a business enterprise. It serves as a guide for the bookkeeper as to what account title
can be used for a particular transaction. It is arranged in the following order:

1. Assets – Account number usually starts with 1


2. Liabilities – Account number usually starts with 2
3. Capital & Drawing – Account numbers usually start with 3
4. Revenues – Account number usually starts with 4
5. Expenses – Account number usually start with 5
For your understanding, presented below is an example of chart of accounts:

53 | P a g e

Good job! You were able to discuss the T-account and chart of accounts very well. We will
now proceed with the discussion of Accounting for a Service Concern.

Journalizing

Journalizing is the process of entering a transaction in a journal. Journal is a chronological


record that is, arranged according to the time occurrence of business transactions. It is called the book
of original entry since it is where the transactions are first recorded.

Double Entry-Bookkeeping

A method of bookkeeping system where transactions are necessary to be recorded twice for the
recognition of the dual effect of a transaction. It explains that for every value received, there is a
corresponding value parted with or given away. In short, for every debit entry, there is a corresponding
credit entry with equal amount.

The General Journal

The general journal is composed of the following parts/columns:

• Date column. For the first journal entry on a page, the year, the month and the date are entered
here. The year is written in small figures on top of the first line of this column while the month is
written just below the year on the same first line. The date is written on the first line of the Date's
second sub-column.
• Description column. The first line of an entry shows the account debited and the second line is
the account credited, which is indented to the right. A brief description is written below the entry
to understand the nature of transaction.
• Posting Reference column. This column is filled out only during the transferring of entries to the
ledger. In this column, the account numbers of the debited and Credited accounts are written
right after they are posted to the ledger,
• Debit column. This is where the debit amount is written in line with the account debited,
• Credit column. This is where the credit amount is written in line with the account credited.

Illustrated below is the first two entries on the General Journal of Cruz Repair Shop.
54 | P a g e

Observe the following:

• The name of the book, General Journal, is written at the upper portion of every page. A page
number is also written on each sheet of journal.
• Peso sign, comma, and decimal point are not used in columnar sheets. A dash is place when
there are no centavos involved.
• Always leave one space after each journal entry

The Posting Process


Posting is the process of copying the debits and credits from the journal to the general ledger
accounts. All amounts entered in the journal must be posted to the general ledger accounts. If an
account is debited in the journal, it will also be posted on the debit side of the account in the ledger.
In the same way, if an account is credited in the journal, it will also be posted on the credit side of the
account in the ledger. This process simply updates the ledger accounts for the effects of the
transactions in the journal.

The General Ledger


The general ledger is a complete set of all the accounts used by the business. Each account
has an individual record in the general ledger wherein the effects of business transactions are
summarized. The accounts are arranged in the following order: Assets, Liabilities, Capital, Drawing,
Revenue, and Expense accounts. It is called the book of final entry.
The following are the steps in the posting process:
In the ledger account:
1. Enter the date of each transaction in the date column.
2. Enter the page number of the journal from which each transaction is posted in the Posting
Reference column.
55 | P a g e

3. Enter the amount of each transaction in the Debit or Credit column as they appear in the
journal.
In the journal:
4. Enter the account number in the Posting Reference column of the journal of each transaction
that is posted.
Cross-referencing or cross-indexing is the process of entering the page number of the journal
in the posting reference of the ledger and entering of account number in the posting reference of the
journal.
After posting all the journal entries to the ledger, the difference between the debit total and the
credit total of each ledger account is to be computed. This process is known as pencil footing.
The account has a debit balance if the debit total is greater than the credit total – hence, the balance
is written on the debit side of the account. On the other hand, the account has a credit balance if the
credit total is greater than the debit total – hence, the balance is written on the credit side of the
account.

Illustrated below is the first journal entry of Cruz Repair Shop to be posted to the general
ledger:
56 | P a g e

Preparing the Trial Balance


A trial balance is a summary listing of the account titles and the balance of each account. It is
prepared to test the equality of the debit and credit balances of the account in the ledger. The
accounts with debit balances are listed in the left-hand column while the accounts with credit
balances are listed in the right-hand column. The total of the two columns must agree. A sample of
trial balance is shown at the end of this lesson.
When the trial balance does not balance, the following are the possible errors:
1. Columns of the trial balance may be incorrectly added.
2. Account balance might have been entered in the wrong column.
3. Amounts from the ledger may be incorrectly entered on the trial balance or may be omitted in
the trial balance.
4. While posting, a wrong amount might have been posted on the account.
5. While posting, a debit is erroneously posted on the credit or vice versa.

Congrats! You were able to answer the questions on the previous page and was also able to
answer the exercises given to you last lesson. You are now ready to move forward!

Preparation of Worksheet
The worksheet is a multi-columned document used to summarize information needed to
prepare the adjusting and closing entries and to aid in the preparation of financial statements.

For now, we will just use it to create financial statements. The adjusting and closing entries
will be discussed on the succeeding lessons.

In this lesson, a 6-column worksheet is to be used. This includes sets of columns for trial
balance, the income statement, and the balance sheet.
Steps in the preparation of worksheet:
1. Enter the ledger accounts in the account’s column, and its balances in the trial balance
column.
2. Extend the trial balance amounts into the appropriate financial statement columns. That is, all

liabilities, and owner’s equity accounts to the balance sheet columns.
3. Total the financial statement columns. Determine and record the net income or net loss which
serves as a balancing figure in both pairs of columns

Net income if revenues exceed expenses and Net loss in expenses exceed revenues.

This is the Statement of Cash Flows of Cruz Repair Shop. It involves 3 types of business
activities such as operating, investing, and financing activities. Each category of cash flow includes
both cash receipts and cash payments.
Operating activities generally involves cash received from cash customers, cash collection
from credit customers, cash paid for expenses and supplies. Transactions that involve making and
collecting loans or purchasing and selling plant assets are called investing activities. Financing
activities include the owner’s investment and drawing and borrowing of cash from creditors both short
term and long term.
Lastly, the ending balance in the Statement of Cash Flows should have the same amount as
the cash balance in the general ledger and the Balance Sheet.

called Income Summary. This is specifically used
for the closing process.
70 | P a g e

Great job! You were able to create a worksheet and financial statements as practice from the
previous lesson. Now, let’s proceed to another lesson.

Closing Entries
Are journal entries that bring temporary or nominal accounts to zero balance and transfer their
balances to the permanent capital account at the end of the accounting period. These temporary
accounts are the revenues, expenses, and drawing accounts.
This process uses the clearing account called Income Summary. It is used as another
temporary account in which the revenue and expense accounts are initially closed to determine
whether the business operations result to income or loss. The other terms used are Profit and Loss
Summary or Revenue and Expense Summary.
Steps:
1. Close the revenue account – Do this by debiting the revenue accounts and crediting the
income summary account.
2. Close the expense account – Do this by debiting the income summary account and crediting
the expense accounts.
3. Clos the income summary account – If it is a net income, the income summary account is
debited while the capital account is credited. If it is a net loss, the capital account is debited
while the income summary account is credited.
4. Close the drawing account – Do this by debiting the capital account and crediting the drawing
account.
Just like the journal entries, closing entries are also recorded in the journal and also posted in the
general ledger. Presented below are the closing entries of Cruz Repair Shop.
71 | P a g e

• From the last journal entry, leave one space and write “Closing Entries”. This would separate
the new entries from the previous ones.
• Income summary has an account number (33) next to the drawing account (32).
• Notice that income summary was debited, and the capital account was credited on the third
entry. This is because the business has Net Income.
• The account numbers of the accounts were also posted in the P/R column, meaning they are
posted in the ledger.
• You will have to create a ledger for the income summary account since it is a new account.
Just insert it after the capital ledger.
Post-Closing Trial Balance
The post-closing trial balance is done after all the balances of the temporary accounts have
been closed, which means that their balances were reduced to zero. Therefore, the post-closing trial
balance only shows the balances of permanent accounts. These accounts are the assets, liabilities,
and owner’s equity.

Below is the Post-Closing Trial Balance of Cruz Repair Shop.

• We have a total of seven adjusting entries to study.


The first is for the depreciation of plant, property,
and equipment.
74 | P a g e

Great! You can now proceed with the study of adjusting entries.

Understanding accounting periods


• Monthly
• Quarterly
• Semi-annual
• Annually
Remember that accounting periods are determined for the preparation of the financial
statements.
Annual accounting period
• Calendar year - Begins with January 1 and ends with December 31.
• Fiscal year - An accounting year of 12 consecutive months that may or may not be in accordance
with the calendar year.
Interim financial statements
• Financial Statements that cover one-month activities, three months, and or six months.
Cash basis and Accrual basis of accounting
• Cash basis recognizes revenue when cash is received; and recognize expense when cash is
paid. This basis of accounting does not need adjusting entries.
• Accrual basis recognizes revenue when sales are made or services are performed regardless
of when cash is received or not; and recognizes expenses as incurred regardless of when cash
is paid out or not. This basis of accounting needs the preparation of adjusting entries.
Need for adjusting entries
• Are entries prepared at the end of an accounting period to update and adjust the balances of
accounts.
• They are necessary so that revenue and expenses will be reported in the period they are earned
and incurred.
• All adjusting entries affect at least one income statement account and one balance sheet
account.
Adjusting entry for depreciation of property, plant, and equipment
Depreciation
• In accounting, depreciation is referred to as the decrease in value of the assets.
Property, plant, and equipment
• Assets or physical resources that are owned and used by the business which are relatively fixed
or permanent in nature.
75 | P a g e

• They are sometimes referred to as fixed assets or plant assets

Depreciation Expense (name of asset) xxxx


Accumulated Depreciation (name of asset) xxxx
To take up depreciation for the year

This is the entry to record the depreciation.


Straight Line Method of Depreciation:
Asset cost
• Includes purchased price plus other direct costs incurred in acquiring the asset.
Estimated useful life
• Number of years or time the asset can be used.
Estimated residual value
• This is the estimated amount the fixed asset can be sold at the end of its useful life. Other terms
used are salvaged value, scrap value, or trade in value.

EXAMPLES
1. On January 2, 2015, ABC Company bought equipment for a total cost of P 750,000. Its
estimated useful life is 5 years and the residual value is P 25,000. Prepare the adjusting entry

Great! You were able to answer the review questions. You can now proceed to the next
adjusting entry.

Accrued Revenue
• An asset account.
• Refers to income already earned but has not yet been collected.
EXAMPLES
1. Company ABC leases its building space to a tenant on December 1, 2016. The tenant agreed
to pay monthly rental fees of P10,000. On December 31, 2016, ABC Company did not receive
the rental fee yet and no record was made in the journal.
Adjusting entry:

Rent Receivable 10 000


Rent Revenue 10 000
To take up accrued rent revenue

Even though the tenant hasn’t paid his monthly fee, the company has to record its
supposed revenue in the form of accrued revenue. You will debit a receivable because you are
assuming that the tenant will pay his rent. Failure to record the accrued revenue will make the
revenue understated in the Income Statement.
2. The company’s accounting period ends every month. As of March 31, commissions already
earned but not yet collected amounts to P38,000.
Adjusting entry:

Commissions Receivable 38 000

The company follows a fiscal year starting June 1, 2016 which will end on May 31, 2017.
The company has to make the adjusting entry on May 31, 2017
8 200 x 9 = 73 800(September 1, 2016 – May 31, 2017).
95 | P a g e

4. ABC Company lent 90,000 with annual interest of 10% interest on December 16, 2016. The term
is 1 year. The company’s accounting period is semi-annual starting July 1, 2016.
Adjusting entry:

Interest Receivable 375


Interest Revenue 375
To take up accrued rent revenue

The company follows a semi-annual accounting period starting July 1, 2016 – December
31, 2016.
90 000 x .10 = 9 000(annual interest) 9 000 / 12 = 750(monthly interest)
750 x .5 = 375(December 16 – December 31, 2016)
5. On August 16, 2016, Entity A lent 300,000 to another entity with an interest rate of 9% and a
term of 1 year. The company follows a fiscal year starting March 1, 2016.
Adjusting entry:

Interest Receivable 16 875


Interest Revenue 16 875
To take up accrued rent revenue

The company follows a fiscal year accounting period starting March 1, 2016 – February
28, 2017.
300 000 x .09 = 27 000(annual interest) 27 000 / 12 = 2 250(monthly interest)
2 250 x 7.5 = 16 875(August 16, 2016 – February 28, 2017)

Comparison between Accrued Expense and Accrued Revenue


1. On October 16, 2016, ABC Company received a 5-month, 6% promissory note from a XYZ Company in

Congratulations! You were able to recall how the adjusting entry works. You may now continue
with the next lesson.

Adjusting Entry for Prepaid Expenses


What is a prepaid expense?
 Expenses paid in advance.
 Expenses paid by the business now but will be utilized in the future.
 Prepaid expenses are treated as asset and become an expense through the passage of time.
 Prepaid rent, prepaid insurance, prepaid advertising, and office supplies.
Asset method
 Under this method, the account debited is an asset account. Upon adjustment, an expense
account is debited with a corresponding credit to an asset account.

EXAMPLES
1. On January 1, 2016, the company purchased office supplies amounting to P50, 000.
On December 31, 2016, the company’s remaining unused supplies amounted to P15, 000.
Asset method:
January 1, 2016:
Office Supplies 50 000
Cash 50 000
December 31, 2016 (adjusting):
Office Supplies Expense 35 000
Office Supplies 35 000
To take up the supplies used/expired
Under asset method, we debit an asset account on the upon entry. That is why office
supplies account was debited on January 1.
Upon adjustment, the asset account we debited should be credited, and an expense
account will be debited. As you can see in the adjustment, we debited office supplies expense
for 35 000 and credited office supplies for 35 000.
After the adjustment, the office supplies account will have a debit balance of 15 000 as
stated on the problem (50 000 – 35 000 = 15 000).
102 | P a g e

2. On April 1, 2016, the company purchased office supplies amounting to P20, 000.

To take up the supplies used/expired
After the adjustment, the office supplies account will have a debit balance of 4 500 as
stated on the problem (20 000 – 15 500 = 4 500).

3. On July 16, 2016, the company purchased office supplies amounting to P150, 000.
At the end of the accounting period (December 31, 2016), unused office supplies amounted to

103 | P a g e

After the adjustment, the prepaid rent account will have a debit balance of 37 500, which
represents the remaining 3 months of payment. (50 000 – 12 500 = 37 500)
Computation: 50 000 / 4 = 12 500 (monthly rent)
March 1 – March 31 (one month expired)
(12 500 x 1 = 12 500)

5. XYZ Company’s annual accounting period starts on January 1, 2016. The company paid P102,
000 representing a 12-month rent beginning March 1.

After the adjustment, the prepaid rent account will have a debit balance of 17 000, which
represents the remaining 2 months of payment. (102 000 – 85 000 = 17 000)
Computation: 102 000 / 12 = 8 500 (monthly rent)
March 1 – December 31 (10 months expired)
(8 500 x 10 = 85 000)

Congratulations! You were able to recall how the asset method works for the prepaid expenses.
Now let’s understand the expense method. The meaning of prepaid expense is written below for your
reference.

Adjusting Entry for Prepaid Expenses


What is a prepaid expense?
 Expenses paid in advance.
 Expenses paid by the business now but will be utilized in the future.
 Prepaid expenses are treated as asset and become an expense through the passage of time.
 Prepaid rent, prepaid insurance, prepaid advertising, and office supplies.
Expense method
 Under this method, the account debited is an expense account. Upon adjustment, an asset
account is debited with a corresponding credit to an expense account.

EXAMPLES
1. On January 1, 2016, the company purchased office supplies amounting to P50, 000.
On December 31, 2016, the company’s remaining unused supplies amounted to P15, 000.
Expense method:
January 1, 2016:
Office Supplies Expense 50 000
Cash 50 000
December 31, 2016 (adjusting):
Office Supplies 15 000
Office Supplies Expense 15 000
To take up the supplies used/expired
Under expense method, we debit an expense account on the upon entry. That is why
office supplies expense account was debited on January 1.
Upon adjustment, the expense account we debited should be credited, and an asset
account will be debited. As you can see in the adjustment, we debited office supplies for 15 000
and credited office supplies expense for 15 000.
After the adjustment, the office supplies account will have a debit balance of 15 000 as
stated on the problem (50 000 – 35 000 = 15 000).

121 | P a g e

Congratulations! You were able to recall how the asset method and expense method works.
Now you may proceed with the next adjusting entry.

Adjusting Entry for Unearned Revenues


Unearned Revenue (Liability Account)
 Revenue already collected but not yet earned.
 Revenues collected or received in advance.
Liability Method
 The account credited upon receipt of cash is a liability account. Upon adjustment, such liability
account will be debited, and a revenue account is credited.

EXAMPLES:
1. On September 1, 2015, MNO Company received P540,000 representing rental fee of an office
space for one year beginning on this date. Prepare the adjusting entry on December 31.

December 31, 2015 (adjusting):
Unearned Rent Revenue 180 000
Rent Revenue 180 000
To record the earned portion of unearned rent revenue
Under liability method, we credit a liability account on the upon entry. That is why
unearned rent revenue account was credited on September 1.
Upon adjustment, the liability account we credited should be debited, and a revenue
account will be credited. As you can see in the adjustment, we debited the unearned rent
revenue account and credited rent revenue for 180 000
After the adjustment, the unearned rent revenue account will have a credit balance of 360
000 (540 000 – 180 000 = 360 000), which represents the unearned portion.
Computation: 540 000 / 12 = 45 000
45 000 x 4 = 180 000 (four months earned portion, Sept 1 – Dec 31)

After the adjustment, the unearned rent revenue account will have a credit balance of 608
000 (768 000 – 160 000 = 608 000), which represents the unearned portion.
Computation: 768 000 / 24 = 32 000
32 000 x 5 = 160 000 (five months earned portion, Aug 1 – Dec 31)

Dec 31 Unearned Rent 36000 Dec 31 Rent Revenue 252000


Rent Revenue 36000 Unearned Rent 252000

288000 / 24 = 12000(monthly rent) 288000 / 24 = 12000(monthly rent)
