S3-2: COMPARING ACCRUAL AND CASH-BASIS ACCOUNTING
The Johnny Flowers Law Firm uses a client database. Suppose Johnny Flowers paid $2,900 for a computer.Requirements:1. Describe how the business should account for the $2,900 expenditure under
a. the cash basis.
b. the accrual basis.
10
Record expense $2,900
Record asset $2,900
2. State why the accrual basis is more realistic for this situation.
The accrual basis is more realistic because the computer is an asset and it will benefit the business for more than one year. To record the cost of the computer as an expense is unrealistic.

Accounting Period ConceptAccounting Period Concept• Businesses prepare financial statements for
specific periods to evaluate performance• Basic accounting period = one year

– Not when cash is received, cash method
• The amount of revenue to record?– Value of item or service transferred to customer

Chapter 3 SummaryChapter 3 Summary• Cash-basis accounting and accrual
accounting are different. Accrual accounting records revenues and expenses when they are earned/incurred. Cash-basis accounting records revenues and expenses when cash is received or paid.
• The principles guide us as to when (the time period and accounting period concepts) and how (the revenue recognition and matching principles) to record revenues and expenses.
60
Chapter 3 SummaryChapter 3 Summary• We adjust accounts to make sure the balance
sheet shows the value of what we own (assets) and what we owe (liabilities) on a specific date. We also adjust to make sure all revenues and expenses are recorded in the period they are earned or incurred. Adjusting journal entries either credit a revenue account or debit an expense account, but they NEVER affect the Cash account.
61
Chapter 3 SummaryChapter 3 Summary• The adjusted trial balance includes all the
transactions captured during the period on the trial balance plus/minus any adjusting journal entries made at the end of the period. The adjusted trial balance gives us the final adjusted values that we use to prepare the financial statements.
63
Chapter 3 SummaryChapter 3 Summary• The financial statements must be prepared in
order: 1. income statement2. statement of retained earnings3. balance sheet, third.
• It is important for accountants to prepare accurate and complete financial statements as other people rely on the data to make decisions.
