1Chapter 2: The Accounting Equation
The value of the company:
Assets - Liabilities = Owners Equity
Economic Resources = Claims to Economic Resources
Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity
Assets: goods, rights and other resources controlled by the company as a result of
past events, from which future economic benefits are expected. Claims to assets come
from liabilities (economic obligations, debts) and owners equity (capital).
- Current Assets: those expected to be held for 12 months or the business
normal operating cycle → cash, acc receivable, merchandise inventory,
prepaid expenses, short-term investment.
- L/t Assets: expected to be held longer than 12 months or the normal operating
cycle → property, plant, equipment, l/t investment, intangible assets.
Liabilities: present obligations of the company arising from past events, the
settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow of resources from the
company embodying future economic benefits. They shall include provisions.
- Current Liabilities: Debts payable within one year or within the business’s
normal operating cycle → notes payable, acc payable, accrued expenses
payable, income taxes payable.
- Long-term liabilities: Debts not payable within one year or within the
business’s normal operating cycle → notes payable, bonds, etc.
Owners Equity: Amount of an entity’s assets that remain after its liabilities are
subtracted→ the purpose of a business is to increase owner's equity. Consists of
Paid-in Capital and Retained Earnings.
- Consists of → common stock, Retained Earnings and Profits.
→ Retained Earnings: earned by income-producing activities, kept for use in the
business. It is affected by revenues (increases from delivering gg or ss), and expenses
(decreases that result from operations). Investments or withdrawals from the
business also have an effect.
→ Dividends: distributions to stockholders (normally cash), generated by net
income.
