 Common stock (a shareholders’ equity) increases


by $60,000.

The Adjustment Process
Accounts are adjusted at the end of a period to
record internal transactions and events that are
not yet recorded.

Two basic principles for recognizing Revenues


and Expenses:
1. The revenue recognition principle requires
revenue be recorded when earned, not before
and not after.
2. The matching principle requires expenses be
recorded in the same period as the revenues
earned as a result of these expenses.
Accrual Basis versus Cash Basis
Accrual basis accounting —uses the adjusting
process to recognize revenue when earned and to
match expenses with revenues. This means the
economic effects of revenues and expenses are
recorded when earned or incurred, not when cash is
received or paid. Accrual basis is consistent with
GAAP.
Cash basis accounting —revenues are recognized
when cash is received and expenses are recognized
when cash paid. Cash basis is not consistent with
GAAP.
Accrual accounting also increases the comparability
of financial statements from one period to another.
Adjusting Accounts
An adjusting entry is recorded to bring an asset
or liability account balance to its proper amount.
The adjusting process is based on ACCRUAL
ACCOUNTING of Revenue Recognition and
Matching Principle.

Adjusting accounts is a 3-step process:


(1) Determine the current account balance,
(2) Determine what the current account balance
should be, and
(3) Record adjusting entry to get from step 1
to step 2.

C3 The Closing Process: Temporary and
Permanent Accounts

Temporary (nominal) accounts accumulate data related to


one accounting period. They include all income statement
accounts, the dividends account, and the Income Summary
account. These accounts are “closed” at the end of the period
to get ready for the next accounting period.

Permanent (real) accounts report activities related to one or


more future accounting periods. They carry ending balances
to the next accounting period and are not “closed.”
