Hello we are back this is lecture number three I believe so we are moving right along. So
thank you for being here today for you folks watching at home, and for you folks here face
to face. I was slowly getting over my cold so for the thank you for the flowers and the
get will cards that have been sent my way I will pull through this thing, and I do appreciate
your well wishes. For you folks at home what we just did here for the face to facers was
what we just took a quiz, and obviously I can't give you the quiz at home. The quiz
that I gave why don't you show this on the screen, and if you're at home why don't you
just pause it , and see how well you would do on this quiz just pause it, and when you're
done taking that quiz so to speak just start it up again and you can go over the answers.
So we will go over the answers right now. So let's switch it over and I'll just what
is the accounting equation assets equals liabilities plus owner's equity or equity right. Assets
equal liabilities plus owner's equity and that always has to remain in balanced for
a company at any given point in time the assets have to equal the liabilities plus the owner's
equity. What makes equity increase? Investments of assets by the owner into the business,
and revenue right, investments of assets by the owner into the business, and revenue are
the two things that cause owner's equity to increase. The two things that cause it decrease
are just the flip side of that. Withdrawals of assets by the owners out of the business,
and expenses so I want you to have those facts real firmly cemented into your brains, because
it's going to help us, and especially today ok this is a really important lecture so I'm
glad you're watching it. One thing I wanted to remind you all of and especially for you
folks at home but even for you face to facers is you can always re-watch these I know you
loved them the first time the second time they're even better right. So if you're ever
struggling with a concept sometimes if you watch it a second time it's going to become
a lot more clear so don't hesitate to do that, that's one of the benefits of teaching in
this sort of manner. Alright, before we go over the homework I'm going to clarify something
real quick. I'm going to try to change my verbage a little bit so that it's not as confusing.
The connect the connect assignments, how many people have signed up on connect? Most of
you there's a couple that still haven't we talked about that before class at home I want
you to sign up for connect and again go to the lessons tab go to the lessons tab on angel
and you should see something there that refers to the URL and the information for homework
connect. But I want to start not calling it connect homework I'm going to try my best
and you can correct me I want to call it the connect assignments ok. So when I talk about
you need to do your connect assignment I'm not going to say connect homework I'm really
not going to try to do that I'm going to say connect assignments, because the homework
is like what I assign at the end of the hour or the end of the lecture each time and then
we go over it like what we're about to do. So I don't want you to getting you confused
you see what I'm saying? So when I talk about doing your homework that's what I assign I
usually put it up on the screen right before you leave you do it pencil and paper, textbook,
use your work papers perhaps in the back of your book, and then we go over it that's the
homework. Connect assignments are something totally separate and we actually do not go
over the connect assignments in class. They give you feedback on the computer make sense
ok? Let's go over the homework that I assigned I don't think it was real mind blowing homework
was it? So let's go over quick study one-eight boy that was a toughie wasn't it? Did you
pull an all nighter on that one? Ok we know that assets have to equal liability plus equity
so for company one on quick study one-eight on page thirty-one what do liabilities equal
ten-thousand dollars. On company two what do assets equal eighty thousand dollars? Company
three what does equity equal? Also eighty-thousand dollars correct ok good. Quick study one-seven
total assets of Caldwell Company equals forty thousand, and its equity is ten thousand so
what its liabilities thirty thousand again assets have to equal liabilities plus owner's
equity. B total assets of water world equal fifty five thousand and its liability and
its equity amounts are equal to each other. So how much are its liabilities so how much
are its liabilities twenty seven five how much is its equity twenty seven five same.
Alright so any questions on those two? Ok I think the other one I gave you is exercise
one-seven is that correct? And this is in regards of to the different types of ways
you can organize your business. So they want us to determine from the description if it's
a sole-proprietorship, a partnership, or a corporation. And when I read these I'll emphasize
in the phrasing what the giveaway was in for what type of what organization it is. A-one
pays its own income taxes and has two owners it's a corporation a corporation pays its
own income taxes. B ownership of Zeller Company is divided into a thousand shares of stock
it is a corporation, corporations have stock we didn't talk about that, but it was in your
book so I want you to be reading your book as well. C Waldren is owned by Mary Malone
and she is personally liable for the company's debts, sole-proprietorships one owner she's
personally liable sole-proprietorships. D Mike Douglas and Nathan Logan own financial
services a financial services provider neither Douglas nor Logan have personal responsibility
for the debts of financial services it's a corporation there not personally liable. E
Baily and Kay own squeaky clean a cleaning service both are personally liable to the
business so there's two owners they're personally liable partnership. Well LLC wasn't really
an option so it was just sole-proprietorship, partnership, and corporation if you had to
choose one of those three there was only one right answer, but you are correct for D LLC
would satisfy that as well if that as well if that were an option ok good. Are we on
F? Plasto products does not pay income tax and has one owner, sole-proprietorship, and
G I'm not sure why they call it E and LLC but this company does not have separate legal
existence apart from the one person who owns it it's a sole-proprietorship it's kind of
a little misleading with the name of the company, but it is a sole-proprietorship. Alright any
questions on that, any questions on that? ok great. What I want to do now I'm going
to give you a little preview of things to come on today's lecture. But once again I
want to emphasize the accounting equation let me write it here up on the screen for
you. And if I'm ever writing and you can't see it please let me know. Ok assets equal's
liabilities plus owner's equity I will abbreviate here ok and that always, always, always has
to stay in balance ok what we're going to do today and you'll see this is we're going
to start analyzing business transactions and seeing how it affects that accounting equation.
Let me give you an example start looking back at this let's say that a company got a loan
from a bank for five thousand well how will this be affected well cash which is an asset
will go up by five thousand, and what else will go up by five thousand your liabilities
correct. You went into to the bank they loaned when you are done with them you're going to
have five thousand dollars more of cash which is an asset, but you're also going to have
a liability of five thousand dollars right. Ok does that accounting equation stay in balance?
It does right if it was balanced before it is still balanced ok now let's say with that
new money let's say we purchased a one thousand dollar photo copy machine a piece of equipment
well how will that effect this accounting equation? Well our cash which is an asset
would go down by one thousand what else would change? Not an expense, because it's a fixed
asset it's a piece of equipment and our equipment would actually go up by one thousand dollars.
So one asset our cash goes down by a thousand think about that you gave them a thousand
so you have a thousand dollars less cash than when you entered the store, but you also have
this new big piece of equipment cash goes down equipment goes up looking back at that
does everything stay in balance is the accounting equation still in balance. We didn't do anything
on this side but then that effect was zero over here right everything stays in balance
that's a little preview of what we're going to talk about today, but before we do. I want
to go to a slide here and the slide is right here there are certain principles and assumptions
of accounting and all the rules of accounting are kind of based on these principles and
assumptions ok now we're not going to go through those all today, but we are going to go through
the revenue recognition principle. The revenue recognition principle ok, what is the revenue
recognition principle? Well that states that we're going to recognize revenue when it is
earned. When is it earned when the product or service has been delivered to the customer.
Now I have a little cash sign with a cross through it, because it is not necessitated
by when the cash changes hands. We recognize revenue when it is earned when is it earned
when we have provided the product or service. let me go through a little demonstration on
this this is such an important principle that I want to make sure that I want to get it
in your brains ok. Jessica let's say you're my customer and lets say I want to sell you
one of these nifty red calculators, and the price for one of these is five dollars ok.
So let's just make the transaction yes five dollars right there let's just make the transaction.
Let's get a good side shot from the camera. I want to get a good side shot ok I've given
you the product I can recognize five dollars of the revenue, but now we're going to change
it up a little bit alright. We're going to change it up a little bit let's keep with
that side shot. Let's say Jessica says "hey I really need a calculator I heard you sell
these really great five dollar calculators", and I say "oh there are wonderful" and she
says I want to buy one, doggonit I didn't bring them today, and she says well I tell
you what I'm going to give you the five dollars right and I go yes she goes I'm going to give
you the five dollars today, and can you just bring it to me on Monday. I say no problem
and she gives me the five dollars now can I recognize this as revenue? No I cannot,
now this strikes some people as odd now she's a customer I'm a business she just gave me
five dollars, and I cannot recognize that as revenue, because it is not yet earned I
haven't given her the calculator. So she gives me five dollars and the way I actually record
this on my books is as unearned revenue which is a liability, because what do I owe her?
I either owe her money back or a calculator right. So going back to that example she give
me five dollars ok the weekend comes and goes I say hey its Monday I have I got that calculator
for you Jessica she goes great I can't wait to get it ok. So hold your hands out like
this I still have not earned the revenue, I have not earned the revenue, I have now
earned the revenue it does not necessitate cash is not the impetuous for when we recognize
the revenue it's all when I give you that calculator cool. Let's do one more of these
I put the five dollars in my pocket, and I lost it in there one more of this let's rewind,
and start this whole thing over she says hey I want to buy one of those calculator from
you and I say oh they're great you're going to really like them they're five dollars,
and she says I tell you what I don't have the money right now for it and she goes can
I just pay you the money for it on Monday and I say that's no problem she goes I really
need it today for the rest of my classes so I go ahead and give you the calculator I have
earned the revenue now has she paid me for it no doesn't matter I can recognize the revenue,
because it is earned I have given her the product or service I now have on my books
what is called an accounts receivable I have a receivable from Jessica, because I'm going
to receive cash in the future but I can and will recognize that as revenue ok very important.
The weekend comes and goes its Monday and say hey how's that calculator going and she
says it may be the best calculator I've ever had in my whole life and I say do you have
the five dollars you owe me? And she says yes and she give me the five dollar now do
I recognize this as revenue no I already recognized it as revenue you see what I'm saying I don't
recognize revenue again I recognized it when I gave her the product or service so all I
do at this point is my receivable goes down and my cash goes up. There's no revenue recognize
when she pays me the revenue is all predicated on when I give the product or service and
this can happen the same way if I were a landscaper and I was mowing your lawn for fifty dollars
I would recognize the revenue as soon I was done mowing your lawn regardless of when you
paid me for it. There are certain companies and businesses that are known for you pay
cash before you receive the service for instance how many of you drive a car most of you I
hope you all have car insurance right you have to prepay your car insurance right well
the insurance company gets all this money in, but they have not provided the service
of insurance coverage yet have they? So let's say you pay twelve hundred dollars Jessica
for six months of auto insurance ok well they get that twelve hundred dollars that's unearned
revenue correct every month that they provide you with coverage they can recognize two hundred
dollars of that right, because they provided that service right, does that make sense?
Other companies that usually have money before they provide product or service a magazine
subscription let's say you have paid twenty four dollars for twelve issues for reader's
digest magazine well they have the money, but they haven't provided the product yet
have they? Every month when they send out that wonderful magazine they can recognize
some of that as revenue. The last example would be like a rock concert ok. A few years
ago I paid money for a Bruce Springsteen concert here in town did you pay for that too? You
know where this sad story going don't you? I was so excited to see Bruce Springsteen,
and if you're watching Bruce you really let me down ok. But any way I showed up to the
concert and it was cancelled now I got my money back, because Bruce and the E-Street
band had not provided me a product or service right. Think of all that money that Bruce
got in was it earned no when is it earned as soon as he's done with the concert does
that make sense? So one last time we recognize revenue when it is earned when is it earned?
When the product or service has been provided ok cool. Alright, so now what I want to do
is go back to this accounting equation now there is the basic accounting equation correct
assets equals liabilities plus equity now from our quiz the two things that caused equity
to decrease were what? Withdraws of assets by the owner out of the business, and expenses
right. I want to expand this accounting equation, and I want you to understand what we're doing
here. Equity is decreased by expenses and owner withdrawals right. Let me get my pointer
going here so as these things increase as these things increase equity actually decreases,
because they're subtracted does that make sense? As withdrawals increase owner's equity
decrease because it's subtracted, as expenses increase owner's equity decreases, because
expenses are subtracted. Revenues and investments by the owner into the business which we keep
track in the capital account as those increase owner's equity increases, but I want you to
be aware of these minus signs here because for those items when they increase owners'
equity decreases, does that make sense? Now what I want to do is something really important
and it is going to be you can come of that for a second we are going to analyze some
transactions here and this one of those first skills that I want you to master you need
to master this before we go on to the next skill which we'll learn in chapter two. So
this real important so if you have to rewatch this section a time or two that's fine but
I want you to have this down we're going to analyze transactions. Going to the screen
we know that the accounting equation must, must, must remain in balance after every transaction
that we analyze so let's walk through a few of these where does this start it starts right
here so let's say Jay Scott invests twenty thousand dollars cash to start the business
maybe it was a inheritance from his grandpa or something, but he has twenty thousand dollars
and he is going to start a business. Well form your quiz you know that this is one of
those thing that increases owner's equity right. And owner's equity and capital we kind
of you those as interchangeably at this point, but the two accounts that are going to be
affected are cash is going to go up and owner's capital or owner's equity is goes up you with
me? The capital account is where we keep track of that investment ok you with me. So cash
goes up by twenty thousand and owners capitol goes up by twenty thousand. Now how does that
look if you look at it like this? Well you have cash over here to your left going up
by twenty thousand and you have owners' capital which is part of equity going up by twenty
thousand does the accounting equation stay in balance? Yes it does, yes it does. And
this is a brand new business so this is the very first transaction of the business. Let's
look at another transaction let's say they purchased office supplies and they paid a
thousand dollars cash well what would be the accounts that are affected? Well cash would
go down right, and supplies would go up now supplies are things like they're shown binders,
post it pads, staples, pencils stuff like that. Think about it you go to office depot
with a thousand dollars cash when you leave your cash is decreased, but your office supplies
have increased both by a thousand dollars correct? How does that look in this analysis?
Well cash goes down and those parenthesis means negative mean going down cash goes down
by a thousand and supply goes up by a thousand are you with me? Now sometimes people think
something has to happen on each side of the equal sign ok the left side and the right
side no nothing happened over on the right side of this equation nothing happened over
here did it? It is all over here it is all over here it is all on the left side but that
has a zero net effect so the accounting equation stays in balance doesn't it? Understand what
we're doing? Does the accounting equation remain in balance? Yes. Let's look at another
transaction this time we purchased equipment, equipment is just not post it notes, and pencils
but it's something big like this big expensive photo copier. We purchased equipment for fifteen
thousand dollars cash the first question you ask are what are the accounts effected. Well
cash goes down by fifteen thousand and your account called equipment has just gone up
by fifteen thousand right. Those are both assets once again now supplies aren't the
same thing as equipment ok so when we look at it in the analysis this is how it's going
to look your cash has decreased by fifteen thousand dollars, and your equipment has increased
by fifteen thousand dollars ok Marlen. Since the owner owns the business when he puts that
coipy machine into the business why wouldhnt owners equity go up as well since. That's
a great question let me reiterate that question what he's saying is since the owner owns the
business and this asset is going into the business why doesn't that increase his equity
that's a great question,because it seems to contradict the quiz I'll tell you why. Look
back at the screen it's the business the businesses cash that purchased the equipment think about
when he put this cash in his owner capital increased he can't just use that cash to keep
buying assets and keep running up his equity you see what I'm saying? So In a way the owner
did not buy personally that photocopy machine it was the business that bought it, does that
make sense excellent question excellent question. Alright number four let's look at another
transaction this time the owner purchased supplies of two hundred dollars and equipment
of a thousand dollars on account, and I said the owner but I really meant the business
the business purchased supplies of two hundred dollars and equipment of a thousand dollars
on account. What does it mean on account? Sometimes that called on credit that means
we're just going to pay you later we're going to take the assets and we're going to pay
you later ok they trust us. So what accounts are affected? Well think about it supplies
are going to go up by two hundred dollars equipment is going to go up by a thousand
dollars and our liability which is called accounts payable accounts payable is going
to up by how much? Twelve hundred correct how does that look? Well let's take a look
supplies goes up by two hundred equipment goes up by one thousand and accounts payable
goes up by twelve hundred. Sometimes people make the mistake they think accounts payable
goes down or the negative no accounts payable goes up right. We owed them zero now we owe
them twelve hundred how are you going to make that accounts payable go down in the future
well how do you make your loans go down you pay them off right. So take a look at that
supplies goes up by two hundred equipment goes up by one thousand accounts payable goes
up by twelve hundred dollars, you with me? Is accounts payable considered the liability
or equity? Good question accounts payable is a liability ok accounts payable is a liability
as a matter of fact going back to the screen here if I have my pointer here the liabilities
are over here the equity is over here ok. Now take a look at that again I want to introduce
a concept to you called what is known as dual entry accounting what that means is that every
transaction has to affect at least two accounts otherwise you can't stay in balance so every
one of these transactions these first four that we've analyzed at least two accounts
affected. Now in transaction four there were three accounts that were affected that's fine.
Dual entry accounting just states that at least two accounts are affected I've done
transactions where it's affected fifty or sixty accounts. But in order for the accounting
equation to remain in balance at least two accounts have to be affected now let me ask
you this is the accounting equation still equal? It is isn't it? And at any given point
you can figure up and I'll circle this you can figure up what the ending balances are
just by adding what's above and you can figure this all out and verify that assets truly
does equal liabilities plus equity you with me cool. We're going to analyze four more
transactions. Let's say we borrowed four thousand dollars from bank of America what would be
affected here well cash would go up by four thousand dollars and a certain liability would
go up by four thousand dollars but it would be accounts payable this would be note payable.
Now what's the difference between notes payable and accounts payable? Notes payable are more
formal they're written down on a note and there's usually interest involved. Accounts
payable is just like when you buy some office supplies and you say I'll pay you at the end
of the month and they say ok you've shopped here for fifteen years we know you're good
for it ok. But a note payable how many here have a student anybody here have student loans?
Anybody here have a car loan? Anybody here have a mortgage well if you have any of those
you have to sign stuff and they gave you an interest rate those were notes ok. So going
back to this example we got a four thousand dollar loan from bank of America cash goes
up by four thousand, and our notes payable liability goes up by four thousand. How is
that reflected in this analysis? Just as it's shown. Notes payable goes up by four thousand
and cash goes up by four thousand does the accounting equation hold? Do assets still
equal liability plus owner's equity? Yes. Next one and it reiterates that in this slide
right here. Now let's look at some transactions involving revenues, expenses, and withdrawals
and I want really want you to recall the quiz that you took what are the two things that
make owners' equity increase, what are the two things that make owner's equity decrease.
So remember that ok we provide consulting services and we receive three thousand dollars
in cash. So we have a customer we provide consulting services to him or her and they
pay us immediately three thousand dollars cash. What is affected? Cash is affected and
yes this will increase equity but it increases equity because revenue is increased. Does
that make sense? So the way that this looks is like this revenue here where's my pointer
whoops up here. Revenue is an equity account when revenue goes up from your quiz that's
one of the things that increases equity and that's why these are added ok. So revenue
goes up by three thousand and also our cash goes up by three thousand you with me? Accounting
equation still holds doesn't it assets equal liabilities plus owner's equity ok. Somebody
is working on something here in the building. Alright let's take a look at the next transaction
we paid salaries of eight hundred dollars to employees now what is this this is an expense
now I want you to remember expense are one of the things that as they increase owner's
equity decreases right. Ok so how does this look whoops cash goes down because we paid
out eight hundred dollars to our employees and our salaries expense went up salaries
expense went up. Now remember that as salary expense account increases equity account decreases,
because expenses reduce equity. How does this look? It looks like this? And I want to make
sure you understand this. Expenses go up expenses are not decreased here expenses goes up but
eventually when we're figuring out total equity we add revenue but we're going to subtract
our expenses. Does that make sense guys? So when you have a expense yes your expense goes
up which causes your total equity to go down I want you to understand that. Understand?
Does the accounting equation hold stay put? Good. Let's do one more a withdrawal of five
hundred dollars is made by the owner this is the similar situation cash goes down by
five hundred dollars withdrawals goes up, but as withdrawal account which is where we
keep track of these things when the owner takes out assets when the withdrawal account
goes up equity decreases, because from your quiz withdrawals is one of the things that
causes equity to go down. So how does this look? Well it looks like this your withdrawals
actually go up however when you figure total equity you're going to subtract owner's withdrawals
you're going to subtract expenses you're going to add revenues and of course capital is going
to be added. So if you take that twenty thousand plus three thousand that's twenty three minus
five hundred minus eight hundred oh, and then you have to add your liabilities that's where
they get that so this number is all of these together ok. But if want to figure out my
total equity I add owner's capital, I subtract owner's withdrawal; I add revenue I subtract
expenses do you understand that? Because withdrawals decrease equity, any questions on that, any
questions on that? Ok what I want to do now real quick is I want to work on a homework
example in class I want you to do exercise one-thirteen exercise, not quick study! Always
listen if I'm saying quick study, or exercise, or problem, but I want you to do exercise
one-thirteen on the top of page thirty five ok. For you folks at home whenever we do this
they're going to play this snazzy jazzy JCCC music I want you do this at home just like
if you were here in class. If you need more time just pause it and we'll go over the answer
in a little bit, but this is a very valuable time for you so let's take a few minute and
we'll do exercise one-thirteen. (music 37:30-43:44). Ok once again for you folks at home if you're
not done just pause it and start when you are done, but I want to make sure we get through
the answers before class is over. Ok exercise one-thirteen they want us to describe what
was the probable nature of each transaction. In transaction A cash went down by two-thousand
and land went up by two thousand so what happened there? They took two-thousand dollars cash
and purchased some land correct so cash went down the land asset went up everything remains
in balance correct. Transaction B office supplies went up by five hundred, accounts payable
went up by five hundred what happened there? We purchased five hundred dollars of office
supplies on credit or on account sometimes we say. Transaction C accounts receivable
went by nine hundred and fifty dollars and revenues went up by nine hundred and fifty
dollars. Well we provided nine hundred and fifty dollars' worth of services to our customers,
but they're going to pay us later. We provided it on credit or on account it's a account
receivable because we're going to receive cash in the future, and we can recognize that
revenue because of the revenue recognition principle even though we haven't received
the cash, because we provided the service. Transaction D cash goes down by five hundred
and accounts payable does down by five hundred what happened there? We paid off that liability
right our cash is decreased and our accounts payable liability has also decreased right
cool. Lastly transaction E remember how we had a accounts receivable for nine hundred
and fifty here the customer paid us they paid us cash of nine hundred and fifty dollars
to settle that accounts receivable. We don't recognize revenue nothing happens in the revenue
column right, because we already recognize the revenue. But cash goes up which is an
asset, accounts receivable which is also an asset goes down, make sense? I want you to
get very adept at analyzing these and most of your homework will have to do with this
sort of analysis, are there any questions? It can't go out of balance if you try to make
a journal entry or you try to analyze a transaction it has to balance if it doesn't balance you
goofed up that's the beauty of it. you goofed up in your math is that what you are saying?
You goofed up in your math or you didn't analyze the transaction correctly the beautiful thing
about accounting is that it's precise it has to be in balance. If you do something and
it's not in balance then somewhere you went wrong maybe you effected the wrong account
or maybe the wrong direction ok. Alright let me give you your homework not talking connect
assignments let me give you your homework. Your homework is right here on the screen,
and I want you to do exercises one-twelve, one-ten, one-eleven, and one-eight now when
I have them out of order like that is what I usually mean I want you to do them in the
order I wrote them I think it would be easier to do them in that order. Of course you can
do them in whatever order you want. Now I have a note down here that says use your work
papers if you have them. See that exercise one-eleven that I have as homework up there
guys look in your work papers and you're going to find something that looks like this exercise
one-eleven and we're going to do just like the transaction analysis we did in class we're
going to do it here ok. Make sense? So don't forget about those work papers if you purchased
them that's why you purchased them so just look in the back look for the right reference
and use that as kind of a template to do your homework, but have this homework done next
time. Get signed up for your connect assignment if you haven't call the eight hundred number
if you're having trouble. We'll see you next time bye. (music outro)
