Concept in Bookkeeper and an Accountant

The terms Bookkeeper and Accountant can be used interchangeably to a certain degree,
so let us focus on the literal job roles.
Bookkeeper
- A bookkeeper is a person without a college degree in accounting, who performs much
of the data entry tasks, includes entering the:
*Bills from the Suppliers * Preparing Sales Invoices
*Paying Bills *Mailing Statement to Customers etc.
*Processing Payroll Data
- Many bookkeepers start acting as a data-entry clerk or entry-level bookkeeper for a
business.
- They grow, through experience and merit, into being a go-to person for the day-to-day
financial recording
- The term bookkeeper is literal: the bookkeeper keeps the book and retains
documentation for transactions.
Accountant
- An accountant is likely to have a college degree with a major in accounting and takes
over where the bookkeeper leaves off.
- An accountant may focus on reporting, business analysis and processes, and possibly
advice.
- The accountant will prepare adjusting entries to record expenses that occurred but are
not yet entered by the bookkeeper.
Examples:
Includes interest on bank loans since the last loan payment, wages earned by employees
that will processed next week, etc. Other adjustment to accounts includes the calculation and
recording of depreciation, establishing allowances for uncollectible accounts, etc. After making
the adjusting entries, the accountant prepares the company’s financial statements (income
statement, balance sheet, statement of cash flows). The accountant also assists the company’s
management to understand the financial impact of its past and future decisions.
SAVED!!!
“An experienced or certified bookkeeper may eventually move into being an
ACCOUNTANT”
“Many times a bookkeeper and accountant work in tandem”
with the bookkeeper operating as “Feet on the ground professional”
promoting a stronger relationship between an accountant and a business owner.

Figure 1. The Accounting Cycle


The Basic Steps to the Accounting Cycle:
1. Collect Source Documents
- “This is the first step in the bookkeeping job.”
- The very first step in the accounting cycle is to gather all the documents that are
related to the financial transaction of the organization.
- This documents called Source Documents like:
*Receipts
*Bank Statement
*Checks
*Purchase Orders
2. Analyze Transaction
- “This is still an integral part of the job of a bookkeeper.”
- The purpose of this is to look them over and then decide what effect they have had
on company accounts.
3. Journalize Transaction
- “This must be the look-out of the bookkeeper.”
- The third step is to post entries into the journal for the analyzed transaction.
Journal
- A book or electronic record that documents all of the financial transaction for the
company and the account that are affected by each transaction.
- When journal entry is made, the ‘double-entry’ rule is used.
- This means that for every one transaction, at least two accounts are affected.
- There must be a debit and credit for each transaction and the total must equal
amount of the transaction.
Journal Entries
- Are entered in chronological order, and debits are entered before credits.
4. Post Transactions
- “This is still within the responsibility of the bookkeeper.”
- The fourth step is to transfer information from the journal to the ledger.
Ledger
- A book or an electronic record of all the accounts that a company has.
- These accounts are broken down by account number and class.
- When the information from the journal is transferred to the ledger, it is transferred to
each account that was affected by a transaction.
5. Prepare an Unadjusted Trial Balance
- “This is still the responsibility of the bookkeeper.”
- An unadjusted trial balance is a trial balance that is prepared before adjusting
entries are made into accounts.
- This information comes directly from the ledger.
Trial Balance
- Is a list of all the company’s account and their balance at the time the trial balance is
prepared.
- The total debit balance and total credit balance must be equal.
6. Prepared Adjusting Entries
- “The bookkeeper should do this for the company.”
- Adjusting entries are entries that are made in the journal and posted in the ledger.
- Adjusting entries are made at the end of the accounting period but not the end of the
accounting cycle.
- The purpose of this is to bring account balances to the proper amount.
- Not all accounts will have an adjusting entry.

7. Prepare Trial Balance

- “Who else should do this part except the bookkeeper?”

- Remember, the trial balance is a list of all accounts and their balances after adjustment
have been made.

- This trial balance is prepared to check and make sure that debits and credits equal
after adjusting entries are made.

- It is used to prepare the financial statements.


8. Prepare Financial Statement

- “The bookkeeper is still expected to do this part.”

- The financial statements must be prepared in a very specific order.

- Order for financial statement:

*Income Statement

*Statement of Retained Earnings

*Balance Sheet

*Statement of Cash Flows

- This order is important because information provided in the income statement is used
in the statement of retained earnings, and information from the statement of retained earnings
is used in the balance sheet.

9. Prepare the Closing Entries

- “This is still the responsibility of the bookkeeper who is now getting the book ready
for the next year!”

- Closing entries are prepared after the financial statements are completed.

- The purpose of this is to prepare the accounts for recording transactions and events
for the next period.

Remember:

 For many companies the last step in accounting cycle is to prepare a post-closing trial
balance.
 A post-closing trial balance should only contain the debit and credit balance for
permanent accounts, because these are the only accounts that are remaining after the
closing process.
 The purpose of this trial balance is to ensure that the debits equal the credits and that
all temporary accounts have a zero balance.

10. Reversing Entries

- “The bookkeeper can still do this part.”

- For many companies step 9 is the last step in accounting cycle since the company is
now ready to start the new accounting period. However, some companies, complete one more
step in accounting cycle, step 10 or reversing entries.

- Reversing entries are optional.

- These entries reverse certain adjustment in the next period.

Summary:

 The bookkeeper takes the lead role in each step of the accounting cycle.
 Nothing was actually mentioned about what the accountant should do in each of the step.
 That is how important role as a bookkeeper.

What does the accountant then do?

- It takes the book that bookkeeper prepared, review them, perform business analysis,
advises and makes recommendations based on what you have prepared.

-That is how vital the role of a bookkeeper is in relation to that business and to the
function of an accountant.
Types of Business Organization:

1. Sole-Proprietorship

- It is the simplest form of business.

- A business which is owned by a single person.

- Usually a small service-type business and retail establishments.

- The owner absorbs all losses and is solely responsible for all debts of the company.

2. Partnership

- A business owned and operated by two or more person.

- They bind themselves to contribute money, property, or industry to a common fund


with the intention of dividing the profit among themselves.

3. Corporation

- A business owned by the shareholders.

- An artificial entity being created by operation of law, having the rights of succession
and the powers, attributes and properties expressly authorized by law or incident to its
existence.

- In a corporation, the business entity remains separate from the owners in legal and
financial matters.

Types of Business Activities:

1. Financing Activities

- A transaction that are involved with financing the company or individual customer
financing.
2. Investing Activities

- Are those that are not part of daily operation of the business.

- Are used solely for investing purposes.

3. Operating Activities

- Are all different activities a company will do in their day to day business practices
involved with running the company.

- It also involves the use of resources to design, produce, distribute, and market goods
and services.

Types of Activities Perform by a Business Organization:

*Service Company

*Merchandising Company

*Manufacturing Company
Lesson 2:

Journalizing Transaction
Chart of Account

- Is a list of all account used by a company in its accounting system.

- It makes the bookkeeper’s life easily.

- The accounts included in the chart of account must be used consistently to prevent
clerical and technical errors in the accounting system.

Take note!!!

 There is no standard chart of accounts because its contents depend upon the need of the
company using it.

*Items in the Chart of Account*

Three items included in Chart of Account:

1. Account

- List the account name.

2. Type

- List the type of account (asset, liability, equity, income, cost of goods sold and
expenses)

3. Description

- Contain a description of the type of transaction that should be recorded in the account.
Many companies assign number to the accounts, to be used for coding charges. If
your company is using a computerized system, the computers automatically assign the
account number. Otherwise, you need to plan out your own numbering system.

*Classification of Accounts*

For bigger companies, the most common number system is:

 Asset Accounts: 1 000 to 1 999


 Liability Accounts: 2 000 to 2 999
 (Capital) Equity Accounts: 3 000 to 3 999
 (Revenue) Sales and Cost of Goods Sold Accounts: 4 000 to 4 999
 Expense Accounts: 5 000 to 6 999

This numbering system matches that one used by computerized accounting system,

making it easy for a company transition if at some future time it decides to automate its book
using a computerized accounting system.

1. Set up a chart of accounts for Laine Business Consultancy by arranging the accounts in the
order in which they would appear in the chart. Assign each account a number, using a three-
digit numbering scheme: the 100 series for assets, the 200 series for liabilities, etc. Use the
second digit to indicate specific account within the major category. For example, Cash would
be account number 110.

Business Transaction
-Is an activity or event that can be measured in terms of money and which affect the
financial position or operation of the business entity.
- In other words, it has an effect on any of the accounting elements:
*Assets *Income
*Liabilities *Expense
*Capital
Thus, a business transaction must have the following characteristic:
1. It must be a transaction involving the business entity.
- Means that there must be a separation between the operation of the business and of its
owners and must be clearly established.
Business Transaction
- A money that you use is in your business cash.
- If you used your personal money to buy something that’s not being consider as business
transaction.
2. It must be of Financial Character.
- Means a certain amount of money must be assigned to the elements or accounts
affected.
- In short, it must have an effect on the Basic Accounting Equation.
3. It must have a dual or “two-fold” effect on the accounting elements.
- Every transaction has a dual or two-fold effect.
- For every value received, there is a value given. Or for every debt, there is a credit.
- This is the concept of the double-entry accounting.
- You may refer to the discussion on the Basic Accounting Equation for more
illustrations and example to further understand this.
4. It must be supported by a source document.
- The source documents serve as bases in recording transaction in the journal.
- If the transaction has no sourced document it is not recognized as business transaction.
Basic Accounting Equation
- It is the unifying concept in accounting that shows the relationship between and among
accounting elements: assets, liabilities and capital.

When a business starts to operate, its resources (asset) come from two sources:
*Contribution by Owners.
*Resources Acquired from Creditors or Lender.
*Means that all assets initially come from liabilities obtained and owner’s contribution.
*This is the idea of Accounting Equation.
The Basic Accounting Equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Capital (Owner’s Equity)
- Company owns (assets) must always equal what it owes (liabilities) to its creditors
plus what it owes (owner’s equity) to the owner or owners.
Business Transaction
- Take place, the values of the accounting element change.
Accounting Equation
- At any rate, always stays in balance.
Every transaction has two-fold effect.
- Means that at least two accounts are affected.

Look at the following illustrations:

1. Ms. Grace invested Php100 000.00 to start a rice retailing business.


2. She obtained a loan of Php20 000.00 from the bank in the name of the business.
3. She purchased a weighing scale and paid a total of Php2 500.00

How will the transactions affect the accounting equation?

Let us analyze the transactions.

Transaction 1:
Transaction Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity
Owner’s +100 000.00 = 0 + +100 000.00
Investment
Analysis: The transaction has a two-fold effect. Assets increased as a result of the increased in
cash. At the same time, capital increased due to the owner’s contribution. If you
remember, capital is increased by contribution of owner’s and income, and decreased
by withdrawals and expenses. No liability is affected, therefore, set at zero.
Transaction 2:
Transaction Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity
Owner’s 100 000.00 = 0 + +100 000.00
Investment
Loan from Bank 20 000.00 = 20 000.00 + 0

Analysis: In transaction 2, the company received cash. Thus, the value of total assets is
increased. At the same time, it incurred in an obligation to pay the bank. Therefore,
liabilities are increased. This liability should be recorded as loan payable.
Take note!!!
The accounting equation is still balanced.
Transaction 3:
Transaction Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity
Owner’s +100 000.00 = 0 + +100 000.00
Investment
Loan from Bank +20 000.00 = +20 000.00 + 0
Purchased +2 500.00 = 0 + 0
Weighing Scale -2 500.00

Analysis: The Company acquired a weighing scale, therefore, an increase in asset. But since the
Company used cash to pay for the weighing scale and other supplies. It also results in
decrease in assets.

Transaction 3 resulted in an increased on one asset which is equipment and a decrease in


another asset. Liabilities and capital are not affected. Therefore, the equation in the 3rd
transaction is still equal.
Accounting Equation can be expressed in 3 ways:
* Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity
* Liabilities = Assets - Owner’s Equity
* Owner’s Equity = Assets - Liabilities
Business Transactions
- Occurs on a daily basis as a result of:
*Doing Business.
*Item are Purchased or Sold.
*Credit is extended or borrowed.
*Income is made or expenses are assumed.
Business Transaction result in changes to the three elements of the Basic
Accounting Equation:
 A transaction that increases total assets must also increase total liabilities or owner
equity.
 A transaction that decreases total assets must also decrease total liabilities or owner
equity.
 Some transaction may increase one account and decrease another on the same side of
the equation i.e. (One asset increases and another decrease.)
~Regardless of the nature of the specific transaction, the accounting equation must stay in
balance at all times~
Transaction Analysis
- A process of reconciling the differences made to each side of the equation with each
financial transaction that occurs.
Examples:
Transaction 1: The owner deposit Php50 000.00 in the checking account to begin operation.
Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity

+Php50 000.00 = 0 + +Php50 000.00

Analysis: The asset “cash” is increased by Php50 000.00 and the owner’s equity is increased by
Php50 000.00. The business owes the owner Php50 000.00.
Transaction 2: The business purchases a computer, on credit, for Php12 500.00.
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity

+Php12 500.00 = +Php12 500.00 + 0

Analysis: The asset “computer” is increased by Php12 500.00 and the liability is also increased
by Php12 500.00 because the business owes the Php12 500.00.

Transaction 3: The business purchases office supplies using Php5 500.00 cash.
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity
+Php5 500.00 = 0 + 0
-Php5 500.00

Analysis: The asset “office supplies” is increased by Php5 500.00 and the asset “cash” is
decreased by Php5 500.00.

Transaction 4: A business purchases a building for Php1 000 000.00 with a Php250 000.00
cash down payment and an outstanding loan of Php750 000.00.
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity
+Php1 000 000.00 = +Php750 000.00 + 0
- Php250 000.00

Analysis: More than two accounts are affected by this transaction. The asset “building”
increases by Php1 000 000.00, the asset “cash” decreases by Php250 000.00, and the
liability “bank loan” increases by Php750 000.00. The net result is that both side of
the equation increase by Php750 000.00.

Summary of the Transactions:


Transaction Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity
Bank Deposit, +Php50 000.00 = 0 + +Php50 000.00
Initial Capital

Purchase of +Php12 500.00 = +Php12 500.00 + 0


Computer

Purchase of +Php5 500.00 = 0 + 0


Office Supplies -Php5 500.00

Purchase of +Php1 000 000.00 = +Php750 000.00 + 0


Building -Php250 000.00

~As you can see, regardless of the transaction, the accounting equation must stay balanced~
Expanded Accounting Equation
- Breaks out the owner’s Equity section into two components:
*Revenues
*Expenses
Revenues
- What the business earns for providing goods or services.

Expenses
- The cost of assets the business uses to generate revenues (payroll, depreciation, rent,
utilities, and taxes.)
Profit or Loss = Revenues – Expenses
- In business, if the revenues are more than expenses, there is profit.
- In business, if the expenses are more than revenues, there is loss.
- The owner of the company also has the option to withdraw equity from the company in
the form of drawings (proprietorship and partnerships) or dividends (corporations).

When you look at these relationships to owner’s equity in terms of the accounting
equation, you see that:
 Revenues increase Owner’s Equity.
 Expenses decrease Owner’s Equity.
 Drawings or Dividends decrease Owner’s Equity.
Expanded Accounting Equation
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity + Revenues – Expenses – Drawings
Examples:
Transaction 5: The business sells goods for Php120 000.00 cash.
Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity

+Php120 000.00 = 0 + +Php120 000.00


(Revenue)

Analysis: The asset “cash” is increased by Php120 000.00 and the revenue increases

owner's equity by Php120 000.00.

Transaction 6: The business pays its monthly rent of Php15 000.00 using a company
check.
Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity

+Php15 500.00 = 0 + -Php15 000.00


(Expense)

Analysis: The asset “rent” increased by Php15 000.00 and the expense decreases owner’s
equity by Php15 000.00.

Transaction 7: The business owner withdraws Php20 000.00 for his personal use.
Assets = Liability + Owner’s Equity

-Php20 000.00 = 0 + +Php20 000.00


(Revenue)

Analysis: The asset “cash” is decreased by Php20 000.00 and the drawing decreases

owner’s equity by Php20 000.00.

Accounting Cycle
- Is a sequence of procedures used to keep track of what has happened in the
business and to report the financial effect of those things.
- The financial reports will only make sense if the accounts have been:
*Analyzed Correctly
*The Accounting Equation remains balanced.
Step to analyze and record business transactions:
1. Determine the effect of the transaction on the financial statement of the company.
2. Determine the specific accounts affected and if the account is increased or
decreased.
3. Apply the rules of debit and credit to the transaction.
4. Record the transaction.

Preparing Journal Entry


Task:
March 17, 2019, SNM’ Enterprises purchased of computer equipment for its main office and
paid Php20,000.00 cash.
Which is debited, the computer equipment or the Php 20,000.00 cash? Support your answer.

Based on your analysis on what should be credited or debited, fill up the simple journal
below including all the other information:
YYYY is year.
MMM is the first three letter of the month.
00 is day of the month.
Account Debited is amount increased or added.
Account Credited is expenses.
xxxx is the amount as indicated in the transaction.
Date
YYYY Particulars Debit Credit
MMM 00 Account Debited xxxx
Account Credited xxxx

MMM 00 Account Debited xxxx


Account Credited xxxx

Explanation:
Analyzing the above transaction, you will find out that there would be an increase in asset
account. (computer equipment) and a decrease in another asset account (cash) since SNM paid
for the equipment.
You should therefore increase the asset account by debiting the computer equipment and
decrease cash by crediting it.
Looking at the chart, you see that asset and expense account have balance increases when
they are debited and balance decreases when they are credited. In direct contrast, liability,
stockholder’s equity and revenue accounts have balance decreases when they are debited and
balance increases when they are credited. These are very important points to know when
recording transaction.
After analyzing and preparing the business documents, the transaction are then recorded in
the journal. A journal, also known as The Book of Original Entry, keeps record of transaction
in chronological order. In Double Entry Accounting, transaction are recorded in the journal
through journal entries.

Two Kinds of Journal:


 General Journal
- It is the simplest form of journal wherein the two column form may be used.
 Special Journal
- Cash Receipt Journal, Cash Payment Journal, Sales Journal, Purchases Journal and
some other form of combination journals are special journal.

A General Journal contains the following columns:
* Date
- The date of the transaction is entered in this column in a systematic and chronological
manner.
* Particulars
- This column contains the debit and credit and brief explanation of the entries.
* Posting Reference or Folio (PR)
- Contain the post reference number or the ledger page in which the account are transferred.
* Debit
- Contains the amount debited.
* Credit
- Contains the amount credited.
Process in Journalizing Transactions
1. The date of the transaction is on the date column starting from the year month and day of the
transaction.
2. The first entry is the account title/s of the debit, and is written at extreme left margin of the
second column - Accounts title and explanation The amount of debit is recorded in the Debit
column.
3. The next entry is account title of the credit, written on the next line which is indented. The
amount of credit is recorded in Credit column
4. After the credit, a brief explanation of the transaction is entered.
5. After each completed journal entry, a space is provided to record the next transaction.
6. The Posting Reference (PR) Column is referred to as the reference and this is used to signify
that the journal entries were posted to the ledger using a reference number.
Explanation:
In the above example, computer equipment is an asset account. To increase the asset account,
you debit it. Cash is also an asset account, however, since there is a decrease in cash because we
paid for the computer, so we credit it.
When there is only one account debited and one credited, it is called a “Simple Journal
Entry.” There are however instances when more than one account is debited or credited, it is
called “Compound Entries.”
Transaction:

In addition, the company incurred an obligation to pay Php8 000.00 after 30 days. The
liability of the company increased. When you increase liabilities, you credit it.
Note:
Total amount of debited should be equal to the total amount credited.
Key Points to Remember:
Double Entry Accounting System and The Rules for Debit and Credit
All accounts are assigned a “normal” balance base on the type of account you are working
with.
The normal balance of an account is its usual balance and is the side (debit or credit) that
increase the account. An account has either credit or debit normal balance. To increase the value
of an account with normal balance of credit, one would credit the account. To increase the value
of an account with normal balance of debit, one would likewise debit the account.

Lesson 3:

Posting Transaction
The fourth step in accounting cycle is to post the journal entries to the ledger.

Posting
 Refers to transferring the entries in the journal into the accounts in the ledger.
 Posting to the ledger is actually the classifying phase of accounting.

Cross Indexing
 It is the plowing of the account number of the ledger account in the general journal page
number in the ledger account.
Ledger (Book of Final Entry)
 Refers to books that consist of all accounts used by the company. The debits and credit to
each and the resulting balance. Thus, the Chart of Accounts should be your reference.
 Ledger is a list down transaction chronologically by account title according to the Chart
of Accounts.

Take Note!!!!
 The simpler form of a ledger is the “T-account” because of the letter T that is formed
when preparing entry in the ledger.
 It is the basis for the journal entry in accounting.
 T-accounts have three basic elements:
 The account name
 A left side (Debit)
 A right side (Credit)
Account Name
Debit Credit

Journal (Book of Original Entry)


 Journal is a list down all transactions chronologically.
 Journal Entries made into the general ledger helps to determine your assets, liabilities as
well as net profits or losses.

General Ledger
 Is the basic record for accounting.
 It will be the core of any company record-keeping system.
 It is a go-to document where you can determine the fiscal health of your company.
 It will serve as a record (permanently) for a company.
 When you need to create a balance sheet, most of the information you will need to do
this will be found in the general ledger.
 It is consist of every account from your chart of accounts.
 It is also a key in creating your company’s balance sheet and income statement for each
month.
 General Ledger tracks five categories:
 Asset
 Liabilities
 Owner’s Equity
 Revenue
 Expenses
Take Note!!!!!
It is important to note that may have many different journal is that track different
amounts in your business, each journal record transactions.
Example:
*Sales Journal
*Cash Disbursement Journal
*Purchases Journal
*Receipts Journal
You will take the information from these journals and place the information into your
general ledger.

First Step in setting up a general ledger:


 Is to open your ledger. This amount will not be equal to zero. Instead, you will have any
tangible asset and invested cash cited as assets. Additionally, any liabilities already
accrued (startup loans, mortgage, etc.) will be listed.

Once you have opened a ledger, it is important to maintain the accounting cycle. The
accounting cycle includes the following steps:
1. Record all business transactions in the appropriate journals – update this daily.
2. Ensure all the debits and credits are posted to the general ledger.
3. Make any adjustments for items such as bad debts or accrued interest into general ledger.
4. Once you’ve accounted for all revenue and expenses, you can post net profits in the
owner equity category.
5. Prepare any of your required of financial statement at the end of business periods.
Conclusion:
 Keep current on the accounting cycle to make less work for you in the long run.
 Every aspect of your business need to be recorded in order for it to be analyzed for
accuracy.

account. To summarize the ledger, the accounts should be footed first. The following procedure
is followed:

1. Foot (or add) the debit side of the account.


2. Foot (or ad) the credit side of the accounts.
3. Take the difference between the total of the debits and credits. If the debit total is more that the
credit totals, the difference is placed on the column of the debit side. If the difference is a credit,
the amount is written on the column of the credit side.

Synopsis in Trial Balance:


 The format of trial balance is a two-column schedule with all the debit balances listed in
one column and all the credit balances listed in the others.
 The accounts name listed as arranged in the ledger and the balances are placed either
debit or credit column.
 Trial balance prepared after all transactions for the period have been journalized and
posted to the ledger.
Uses of Trial Balance:
 To make sure the debit equal to credit, resulting to a report balance of zero.
 Trial Balance can be used as worksheet for planning adjusting entries.
 Source of Financial Statements. The information on the report can be aggregated to
create financial statements. (In accounting software handle this task automatically).

Procedure in Preparing a Trial Balance:


1. Write the heading of the trial balance.

Heading of the Trial Balance includes the following:

* Name of the business or the owner

* Title of the list “Trial Balance”

* Date of the Trial Balance

2. Determined the balance of each account in the ledger. The debit and credit account are
totalled the process is called “pencil footing”.
3. Accounts in trial balance are listed in order as they appeared in the ledger.
4. The accounts should be written in just one column arranged the following sequenced:
Assets, Liabilities, Capital, Income and Expense.
5. Add each column.
6. Compared the total of each column. Normally, the totals are equal.

Style:

_____(Name of the Business)_____


________ (Title)_____________
___________(Date)_____________

Accounts Titles P.R Debit Credit


The key to preparing trial balance is making sure that all the accounts balances are
listed under the correct column. The appropriate column are as follows:

Assets = Debit Balance


Liabilities = Credit Balance
Expenses = Debit Balance
Equity = Credit Balance
Revenue = Credit Balance
What if the Trial Balance did not balance?
1. Column of the trial balance may not be incorrectly added.
2. Amount from the ledger may be incorrectly entered on the trial balance.
3. Balance may be entered in the wrong column of the trial balance or may be omitted.
4. Balance may be incorrectly computed in the ledger.
5. Balance is entered in the wrong column of the account in the ledger.
6. While posting, wrong amount may be posted to an account.
7. Credit is posted as debit.
8. Debit or Credit posting may be omitted

Errors that will result to an unequal Trial Balance:


1. Recording the same transaction more than once.
2. Failure to journalize a transaction.
3. Failure to post a transaction.
4. Posting is a part of transaction correctly as a debit or credit but to the wrong account title.
5. Recording the same transaction whose debit and credit amount are erroneous more than
once.

Types of Errors:
Transposition
- Occurs when the order of the digit is change.
Example: 914 is written as 941
Sides
- The entire number is erroneously moved one or more spaces to the right or to the left.
Example: Php914.00 as Php91.40 or Php9 140.00

Working Back Method


- The working back method proves effective in locating the error.
- If an error is not revealed by the trial balance, than the best approach is to work back.
- Means you start re-checking the correctness of accounting procedures you performed in
reverse chronological order, that is, start with the trial balance and moved backwards to the
entries in the journal.

 Specifically refer as the accounting worksheet.
 Accounting Worksheet basically a spreadsheet that shows all of the major steps in
accounting side by side.
 Spreadsheet typically has five set of column that start with the unadjusted trial balance
and ends with the financial statements.
 It becomes tool for bookkeepers and accountants to complete the accounting cycle and
prepared year-end reports.
 Each step list debit and credit with total calculated with the bottom.
 Just like trial balance, the worksheet also has heading that consist of the: company name,
title of the report and time period the report documents.

Steps in preparation of worksheet:


1. Write the heading of the worksheet at the top of the paper with the following information:
* Name of the business
* Worksheet
* For the Period______, 20____.

2. Provide the following column in the worksheet which should have the following entries:
Unadjusted Income
Trial Balance Adjustment Balance Sheet
Trial Balance Statement
Account Debi
Title Debit Credit Debit Credit Debit Credit t Credit Debit Credit

3. Enter The Account Balance In The Trial Balance Column.

The title and the balances of the accounts are copied directly from the ledger into the trial
balance columns. When a worksheet is prepared, a separate trial balance is not required.
However, if it has been prepared, the balances may be posted from it in the worksheet.

4. Enter The Adjustments In The Adjustment Column.

The same adjustments are entered in the adjustment columns of the worksheet. When all
the adjustment have been entered in the relevant debit and credit columns, the pair of adjustment

column must be added. This step proves that the debit and credit of the adjustment are equal and
generally reduces error in the preparation of the worksheet.

5. Enter The Account Balances As The Adjusted In The Adjusted Trial Balance Columns.

The adjusted trial balance is prepared by combining the amount of each accounts in the
original trial balance columns with the corresponding amounts in the adjustment column and
entering combine amount on a line by line basis in the adjusted trial balance columns. Adjusted
trial balance columns are then footed, that is totaled, to check the arithmetical accuracy.

6. Extend the Account Balance from the Adjusted Trial Balance Column to the Profit and
Lost Column or the Balance Sheet Columns.

Every account in the adjusted trial balance is either a balance sheet account or an income
statement account. The accounts are sorted, and each account is extended to its proper place as a
debit and credit either in the balance sheet columns or in the trading and profit & loss column.
Assets and liabilities as well as capital and drawing accounts are then extended to the balance
sheet columns. To avoid over-looking an account, extend the accounts line by line, beginning
with the first line (which is cash) and not omitting any.

7. Total the Income Statement Columns and the Balance Sheet Columns, then enter Net Income
or Net Loss in both pairs of Column as a Balancing Figure and Re-compute Column Totals:
Which Accounts Need to be Adjusted?

is an asset and as it is used, it becomes an expense.

The tenant failed to pay for three months, if you do not record the income, your income for the
period will be understated by Php15 000.00.

5. Provision for Depreciation

Assets which are relatively permanent in nature are fixed assets. They are used by the
business in its operation and are not intended to sale. The value of these assets decreases as time
passes by due to wear and tear from operation or inadequacy or obsolescence, except for land.

These are several ways to compute for depreciation but the simplest is the Straight Line
Method:

Assets Cost xxx


Less: Estimated Salvage Value xxx
Depreciable Cost xxx
Divided by: Estimated Useful Life xxx
Depreciation Expense for each time period xxx

Example: Consider that the accounting period starts on January 1 and end in December 31.
On August 1, 2005, a service vehicle was purchased for Php80 000.00. The asset
is estimated to have 10 years of useful life. The asset is said to have a salvage
value of Php10 000.00.
Assets Cost Php80 000.00
Less: Estimated Salvage Value Php10 000.00
Depreciable Cost Php70 000.00
Divided by: Estimated Useful Life 10yrs
Depreciation Expense for each time period 7 000.00 / year

The annual depreciation of the service vehicle is Php7 000.00. To compute the depreciation from
August 1 to December 31, divide Php7 000.00 by 12months to get the monthly depreciation,
then multiply the monthly depreciation by 5months (August to December).

Php7 000.00 / 12 months = Php583.33/month


Php583.33 * 5 months = Php2 916.67

Worksheet On the Other Paper (Worksheet/Spreadsheet)

Adjusted Trial Balance


 Is a listing of all company accounts that will appear on the Financial Statement after
year-end adjusting journal entries have been made.
 Adjusted Trial Balance is the fifth step in accounting cycle.
 The adjusted trial balance accounts are usually listed in order of their account number or
in balance sheet order starting with the Assets, Liability, and Equity accounts and ending
with income and expense accounts.
 Both debit and credit column are calculated at the bottom of a trial balance.

 Trial Balance are always prepared with a heading:


* Company Name
* “Trial Balance”
* Date of the reporting period

How Trial Balance Prepared?


There are two main way to prepared adjusted trial balance. Both ways are useful
depending on the site of the company and chart of account being used:
1. You can post accounts to the adjusted trial balance using the same method used in creating
unadjusted trial balance. The accounts balances are taken from the T-accounts or ledger account
and listed on a trial balance. Essentially, you are just repeating this process again except now the
ledger accounts include the year-end adjusting entries.

2. You can also take the unadjusted trial balance and simply add the adjustment to the account
that have been changed. This is usually done in smaller companies because every few accounts
will need to be altered.

Be careful to list only active account that will appear on the financial statement on the
trial balance. If an account has a zero balance, there is no need to list it on the trial balance.

How to Prepared Financial Statement?


The general-purpose financial statement including the income statement, statement of
retained earnings, balance sheet and statement of cash flows. It is the most important document
prepared in accounting cycle because it represents the purpose of financial accounting.

The concept of Financial Report and the process of accounting cycle are focused on
providing external users with useful information in the form of financial statements. These
statements are end product of accounting system in any company. Basically, preparing these
statements is what all about.

Preparing general-purpose financial statement can be simple or complex depending on


the size of a company. Some statement need footnote disclosure while other presented without
any. For instance, banks often want basic financial to verify whether the company can pay its
debt while the Sec requires audited financial statement from all public companies.

When business enterprise presents all the relevant financial information in a structure and
easy way to understand manner, it is called Financial Statement.

Financial Statement Purpose: provide both business insider and outsider concise, clear
picture of the current financial status in the business. Therefore, the people who use the statement
must be confident in its accuracy.

Financial Statement how well a company has performed over the year and the level of
profit achieved. Investors and regulators may make decision in a small business based on the
information provided by financial statements. Financial statement must prepare sequenced
because the information in one is needed in next. Using trial balance, the company prepared the
financial statements.

Sequence:
* Income Statement
* Statement of Retained Earnings
* Balance Sheet
* Statement of Cash Flows

your debts. Make sure you have your latest bank statement as well as the balance on any
loans that you owe.

Ideally, you want your asset to always be growing.

Major Assets include:


* Cash in bank

* Investments

* Resale value of your home

* Resale value of your vehicle


* Resale value of personal property, such as jewelry and furniture

everything that you owe. As you pay down debt, your liabilities decrease. These can include:

* Student Loans

* Auto Loans

* Credit Card Debt

* Mortgage Balance

5. Subtract your total liabilities from your total assets. This will give you your net worth.
Your net worth will go up as your asset increase and your liabilities decrease.

Lesson 6:
Developing & Practicing
Negotiating Skills and Maintaining an Effective
Relationship with Customers/Clients
Negotiation
- Is a method by which people settle differences.
- It is a process by which a compromise or agreement is reached while avoiding argument
and dispute.
In any disagreement, individuals understandably aim to achieve the best possible outcome
for their position (or perhaps an organization they represent).
Principles:
 Fairness
 Seeking mutual benefit
 Maintaining a relationship
Are the key to a success outcome.
Effective negotiation help to resolve situations where what you want conflict with
someone else wants.
The aim of win-win negotiation is to find a solution that is acceptable to both parties
and leaves both parties feeling that they have won, in some way, after the event.
There are different styles of negotiation, depending on circumstances Preparing for a
successful win-win negotiation.
Depending on the scale of the disagreement, some preparation may be appropriate for
conducting a successful negotiation.
For small disagreement, excessing preparation can be counter-productive because it takes
time that is better used elsewhere. It can also be seen as manipulative, just as it strengthens your
position, it can weaken the other person’s.
Following points before you Start Negotiating:
1. Goals
What do you want to get out of the negotiation? What do you think the other person wants?
- The negotiation itself is a careful exploration of your position and the other person’s
position, with the goal of finding mutually acceptable compromise that give you both as much of
what you want as possible.
- People’s positions are rarely as fundamentally opposed as they may initially appear – the
other person may have very different goals from the one you expect!
2. Offer
What do you and the other person have that you can offer to each other?
What do you each have that the other word? What are you each comfortable giving away?
3. Alternatives
If you do not come to an agreement with the other person, what alternatives do you have?

Are these good or bad? How much does it matter if you do not reach agreement?
Does failure to reach an agreement cut you out of future opportunities?
And what alternatives might the other person have?
4. Relationship
What is the history of the relationship? Could or should this history impact the negotiation?
Will there be any hidden issues that may influence the negotiation? How will you handle these?
- Only consider win-lose negotiation if you don’t need to have an on-going relationship with
the other party as, having lost, they are unlikely to want to work with you again.
- For a negotiation to be win-win negotiation if both parties should feel positive about the
negotiation once it is over.
- This helps people keep good working relationship afterwards.
5. Expected Outcome
What outcome will people be expecting from this negotiation?
What has the outcome been in the past, and what precedents have been set?
6. The Consequences
What are the consequences for you of winning or losing this negotiation?
What are the consequences for the other person?
7. Power
Who has what power in the relationship? Who control resources?
What power does the other person have to deliver what you hope for?
Who stand to lose the most if agreement isn’t reached?
8. Possible Solution
- Base on all the considerations, what possible compromises might there be?

In any negotiation, the following three elements are important and likely to affect the
ultimate outcome of the negotiation:
1. Attitudes
- All negotiation is strongly influenced by underlying attitudes to the process itself.
For Example:
Attitudes to the issues and personalities involved in the particular case or attitudes linked to
personal needs for recognition. You must remember that a negotiation is not an arena for the
realization of individual achievement.
2. Knowledge
- The more knowledge you possess of the issues in question, the greater your
participation in the process of negotiation. In other words, good preparation is essential.
Therefore, you have to do your homework and gather as much information as you can about the
issues and how these can be negotiated.
3. Interpersonal Skills
- Needless to say, good interpersonal skills are essential for effective negotiation.
These include:
* Effective Verbal Communication
* Listening
* Reducing Misunderstanding
* Rapport Building
* Problem Solving
* Decision Making
* Assertiveness
* Dealing with Difficult Situation

Tips When Doing Negotiation:


1. Never accept any proposal immediately, no matter how good it sounds.
2. Never negotiate with yourself. Once you’ve made an offer, if the other party doesn’t accept it,
don’t make another offer. Get a counter offer. It’s a sign of weakness when you lower your
own demands without getting your opponent to lower theirs.
3. Never cut a deal with someone who has to go back and get the boss’s approval. That gives the
other side two bites of the apple to your one. They can take any deal you are willing to make
and renegotiate it.
4. If you can’t say yes, it’s no. Just because a deal can be done, doesn’t mean it should be done.
No one ever went broke by saying ‘no’ too often.
5. Just because it may look non-negotiable, doesn’t mean it is. Take that beautifully printed
‘standard contract’ you’ve just been handed. Many a smart negotiator has been able to name a
term and get away with it by making it appear to be chiseled in granite, when they will deal if
their bluff is called.
6. Do your homework before you deal. Learn as much as you can about the other side. Instinct
are no match for information.
7. Rehearse. Practice. Get someone to play the other side. Then switch roles. Instinct are no
match for preparation.
8. Beware the late dealer. Feigning indifference or casually disregarding time table is often just a
negotiator’s way of trying to make you believe he/she doesn’t care if you make a deal or not.
9. Be nice, but if you can’t be nice, go away and let someone else to do the deal. You’ll blow it.
10. A deal can always be made when both parties see their own benefit in making it.
11. A dream is a bargain no matter what you pay for it. Set the scene. Tell the tale. Generate
excitement. Help the other side, visualize the benefits and they’ll sell themselves.
12. Watch the game films. Top players in any game, including negotiating, debrief themselves
immediately after every major session. They always keep a book on themselves and the other
side.
13. No one is going to show you their whole card. You have to figure out what they really want.
Clue: Since the given reason is never the real reason, you can eliminate the given reason.
14. Always let the other side talk first. Their first offer could surprise you and be better than you
ever expected.
After negotiating successfully with your clients or customer, the next competency for you
to develop and maintain is an effective relationship with them. Experts say that it costs you five
times as much to win a new customer than to keep a current one.

Building and Maintaining an Effective


Relationship w/ Clients or Customer

Customer Relations or Customer Service


- Refers to the way a business communicates and interacts with the public to gain and
retain customers.
It is necessary for a business to cultivate good customer relations to attract and keep a loyal
base of customer.
Synopsis:
This is a fact: that customer with good experience will tell it to 3 to 5 person and will
remember it and tell it to others for the next 3 to 5 months while customer with bad
experience will tell it to 20 or more people and will remember and tell it to others for the
next 20 years.

We tend to share these extraordinary stories with others. We all know that the word of
mouth marketing can be absolute best advantage, or the worst drawback for a company. The
popular saying is still very, very true: “It takes 20 years to build reputation and five minutes to
ruin it.” If this is always remembered, you will do things differently.

Basic Rules on Customer Service


Honesty is the Best Policy. You must be ready to admit that you made a mistake and that
you are ready to change or prevent the same mistake from happening again. A regular ‘mea
culpa’ (my fault) will not save you and the company. At some point the plan to fix the problem
must take effect!
Break Glass in Case of Fire Response Time. As soon as you realize that a problem
came up, resolve to fix it once.
Set a Realistic Expectation. Customers who have been promised something that is not
delivered as promised are far more frustrated and disappointed than if they are notified at the
onset you cannot do it sooner than later.
R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Everyone on your company should love your customers. Without them
you have no company. This does not mean you won’t have difficult customer who will push the
limits and try everyone’s patience. But if you don’t have the company philosophy to respect and
appreciate your customers, the opposite tone will infect customer interaction from all
departments. All departments, customer facing or not, should care about customer satisfaction, in
the past, you have been told, “the customer is always right” but of course that is not always
correct. To put correctly, “The customer is not always right, but he has to be treated right.”

How to Measure Customer Satisfaction?


Eighty (80%) percent of business believe that they are providing a superior service
experience, but only eight (8%) percent of customer agree. If you do not measure any parts of
your service delivery, you are missing a huge opportunity to improve, grow or even save your
business.
First question you should ask yourself… How do you measure customer satisfaction?
Customer Satisfaction is not measure by the number of complaints you are receiving, for
not everybody bother to tell you about their horrible experience.
Rather, you have ask them if they are satisfied , to let them feel that your satisfaction
matters. You should consider using regular customer satisfaction survey to monitor customer
happiness and any issue requiring customer care.
Customer complaints are an unfortunate reality for any business. But if you handle them
properly you can often find a swift resolution and may even be able to improve your company
reputation because of it.

Following should be Remember when Complaints are Received:


Listen. The best way to show you take your customer’s complaint seriously is to listen.
While it is tempting to respond right away, try not to get defensive or react immediately. Often,
complainants simply want to be heard. Allowing them to voice their concerns will also help you
to understand exactly what the problem is and what you can do to fix it.
Resolve. Once you have listened to your customer and understand the complaint,
consider what you can do to resolve it. In some cases, it may help the situation to explain why
the mistake was made – but take care not to divert blame or appear like you’re making excuses.
Some complaints may be resolve by simply thanking your customer for bringing it to your
attention. In other instances providing a full or partial refund could do the trick. Do not worry too
much if your business end up on the losing end of a transaction by giving a customer his or her
money back – keeping your customer happy and properly resolving the complaint are more than
worth the small hit to your bottom line.
Follow up. Properly resolving a complaint can often prevent a customer from walking
away with a negative impression of you and your company. But if you follow up afterwards you
could turn a displeased customer into a fan. Keep your follow-up inquiry short – ask how your
customer is doing. Whether they are still satisfied with the resolution and if there is anything else
you can do. The goal is to demonstrate that you truly care about your customer’s well-being.
Document it. Even if you feel the matter has been fully resolved, you should document
the incident. It may come in handy in case the issue resurfaces or the complainants decide to take
legal action down the road. Reviewing your record of disputes regularly will help you identify
any recurring incidents and make changes to avoid similar problems in the future.
Surprise and Delight. Go beyond simply “satisfying” and dissatisfied customer by doing
something really amazing to them. Wow them with the solution they did not expect by turning a
bad situation into something fun and memorable.
Recognize what you cannot fix. The saying, “The customer is always right” makes for a
nice bit of PR but is not necessary true. Most complaints are valid, but occasionally a customer
can be unreasonable or impossible to satisfy. Don’t assume that an issue is a customer fault, but
be able to recognize when there is nothing you could have done to avoid it. In these situation,
and despite your best efforts, That is one of the benefit to being the boss: you can decide who
you work with.

Remember: Connecting to your customers on an emotional level is the key to


establishing a lasting relationship with you.
