Income Statement

• The income statement is prepared directly from


the Adjusted Trial Balance columns of the end-
of-period spreadsheet, beginning with fees
earned.
• The expenses in the income statement are listed
in order of size, beginning with the larger items.
o Miscellaneous Expense is the last item, regardless of
its amount.

net income to determine the ending retained
earnings account balance.

Balance Sheet
(slide 1 of 2)

• The balance sheet is prepared directly from the


Adjusted Trial Balance columns of the end-of-
period spreadsheet, beginning with Cash.
• The asset and liability amounts are taken from
the spreadsheet.
• The retained earnings amount is taken from the
retained earnings statement.

Balance Sheet
(slide 2 of 2)

• A balance sheet that shows subsections for


assets and liabilities is a classified balance
sheet.
o Assets are commonly divided into two sections on the
balance sheet: (1) current assets and (2) property,
plant, and equipment.
o Liabilities are commonly divided into two sections on
the balance sheet: (1) current liabilities and (2) long-
term liabilities.

Current Assets
(slide 1 of 2)

• Cash and other assets that are expected to be


converted to cash or sold or used up usually within
one year or less, through the normal operations of
the business, are called current assets.
• Current assets include:
o Cash
o Notes receivable
o Accounts receivable
o Supplies
o Other prepaid expenses

© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Current Assets
(slide 2 of 2)

• Notes receivable are written promises by the


customer to pay the amount of the note and interest.
Like accounts receivable, notes receivable are
amounts that customers owe, but they are more
formal than accounts receivable.
• Notes receivable and accounts receivable are
current assets because they are usually converted
to cash within one year or less.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

• Property, plant, and equipment (also called


fixed assets or plant assets) include land and
assets that depreciate over a period of time.
o Assets that depreciate over time include:
 Equipment
 Machinery
 Buildings

© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Current Liabilities

• Amounts the business owes to creditors that will be due


within a short time (usually one year or less) and that are
to be paid out of current assets are called current
liabilities.
• Current liabilities include:
o Notes payable
o Accounts payable
o Wages payable
o Interest payable
o Taxes payable
o Unearned fees
© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Long-Term Liabilities

• Amounts the business owes to creditors that will


not be due for a long time (usually more than
one year) are called long-term liabilities.

© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Stockholders’ Equity

• Stockholders’ equity is the stockholders’ right to


the assets of the business.
• It is presented on the balance sheet below the
liabilities section.
• Stockholders’ equity is added to the total
liabilities, and this total must be equal to the total
assets.

Permanent Accounts

• Accounts that are relatively permanent from year


to year are called permanent accounts or real
accounts.
• The balances of these accounts are carried
forward from year to year.
• This includes accounts reported on the balance
sheet.

© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Temporary Accounts

• Accounts that report amounts for only one period


are called temporary accounts or nominal
accounts.
• Temporary accounts are not carried forward from
year to year because they relate to only one
period.
• This includes all accounts reported on the
income statement as well as the dividends
account, which is reported on the retained
earnings statement.

© 2017 Cengage Learning®. May not be scanned, copied or duplicated, or posted to a publicly accessible website, in whole or in part.
Closing Entries

• At the beginning of the next period, temporary accounts


should have zero balances.
• To achieve this, temporary account balances are
transferred to permanent accounts at the end of the
accounting period through journal entries.
• The entries that transfer these balances are called
closing entries. The transfer process is called the
closing process and is sometimes referred to as
closing the books.
• After the closing entries are posted, all of the temporary
accounts have zero balances.

Post-Closing Trial Balance

• A post-closing trial balance is prepared after the


closing entries have been posted.
• The purpose of the post-closing (after closing)
trial balance is to verify that the ledger is in
balance at the beginning of the next period.

Fiscal Year

• The annual accounting period adopted by a


business is known as its fiscal year.
• Fiscal years begin with the first day of the month
selected and end on the last day of the following
twelfth month.
• When a corporation adopts a fiscal year that
ends when business activities have reached the
lowest point in its annual operating cycle, such a
fiscal year is called the natural business year.
