Business equity convention: distinguish legal position between business and owners.
Historic cost convention: value of assets should be based on historic cost.
Prudence convention: caution should be exercised when making accounting judgments.
Going concern convention: financial statements should be prepared on the assumption that a
business will continue.
Dual aspect convention: each transaction has two aspects and both will affect balance sheet.
Money measurement: key problems:
- Goodwill, brands: lack clear separate identity and reflect many attributes, difficult to value.
- Human resources: human capital, often impossible to value rights/services, difficult to
measure.
- Monetary stability: assumption that money will keep its value (inflation/exchange rates)
, Usefulness of statement of financial position:
- Shows how the business is financed and how funds are deployed
- Assess relationship between assets and claims
- Provide basis for assessing the value of the business
- Assess the performance of the business
Lecture 2 – Financial accounting
Chapter 3 – Measuring and reporting financial performance
Income statement
Profit(loss) = total revenue – total expenses
→ green = operating expenses
Revenue recognition:
- Amount of revenue measured reliably
- Likely the economics benefits will be received
Long term contracts: could lead to misleading impression of performance over time
→ so define stages in contract and recognize revenues when stages are completed
Continuous services: impossible to define stages → so assume evenly periods
Matching convention: expenses should be matched to the revenue that it generated.
Accruals convention: profit = revenue – expenses (not cash receipts – cash payments)
Depreciation/amortization: measure the cost of non-current assets that are depleted in generating
revenue of particular period.
Depreciation: tangible assets, in case of physical deterioration
Amortization: intangible assets, in case of outdated software
Consistency convention: once a particular method of accounting is selected it should be applied
consistently over time.
