Hello here we are again. We are in the fifth lecture I think if you count the intro one.
Moving right along I want you to notice that we are really kind of just building we just
continue to build our foundations right. One of the first things we learned is the accounting
equation what makes equity goes up and what makes equity goes down right. And then we
started learning transaction analysis and now last lecture we started talking about
creating the financial statements. Mainly the income statement stamen of equity balance
sheet correct so we're just building on each other right? The next lecture this is a good
one too but the next one is a very important lecture so be make sure you are here for my
face to facers and for you at home make sure watch that whole thing you might even want
to watch it more than once, because we going to do some major stuff in lecture number six.
But let's take care of lecture number five first alright so let's go through the homework
real quick now one homework that I don't believe I had got to last time was exercise one eight
is that correct exercise one eight I had not got to. Let me get a piece of paper out here
so let's go through exercise one eight real quick. This kind of test our knowledge of
the accounting equation. Ok office mart has assets equal to a hundred and twenty three
thousand and liabilities equal to fifty three thousand at year end. What is the total equity
of office mart at year end what do you think? Seventy thousand now that one wasn't too tough
was it? Now the next two and I think I kind of alluded to this last lecture. We want to
focus on the accounting equation assets equals liabilities plus owners' equity correct. And
we know that needs to be true at the beginning of the year at the ending of the year so let's
read exercise one eight B and let's kind of put in the information as we read it. At the
beginning of the year Logan's company assets are two hundred thousand so let's put two
hundred thousand in there and its equity is one fifty correct. Well we know liabilities
don't we? What are the liabilities fifty ok? During the year assets increase seventy thousand
so there must be two seventy at the end and liabilities increased by thirty thousand so
liabilities go up by thirty thousand is that correct? Fifty plus thirty is eighty so we
now know owner's equity because that has to equal that plus that correct? So what is owner's
equity one ninety so does that equal that plus that yup does that equal that plus that
yup does that plus that equal that does that plus that equal that and how much did owners'
equity increase by then? Plus forty thousand does that equal that plus that it's like a
puzzle isn't it? Ok has to work like this has to work like this it's like a Sudoku puzzle
right? Jake you can do these on a date with your date you can do this all Friday night
this would be fun wouldn't it? Do puzzles together counting puzzles that be great ok
so. Questions on that one? Ok let's do another one let me see if I have another piece of
paper here. Let see if I can just lay that over. At the beginning of the year were on
C on exercise one eight C at the beginning of the year carrot companies liabilities equal
sixty thousand during the year assets increased by eighty thousand and at year end the assets
equal one eight thousand right? Ok well let's start filling in what we know what plus eighty
equals one eighty this is a hundred right? Well that equals that plus what forty ok let's
see what else they tell us liabilities decrease by ten thousand dollars during the year correct?
So liabilities go down by ten thousand so sixty minus ten equals what fifty? So what
does owner's equity have to equal one hundred and thirty forty plus what equals one thirty
ninety ok well does equal negative ten and ninety yeah it does doesn't it? Ok see how
those work ok I usually have one or two of those on the tests to see if you really understand
Kara? So instead of putting an actual minus sign you'll actually do brackets? Yeah, yeah,
yeah I will do both so a lot of times I will use the brackets to indicate minus or deducted
from cool? That is exercise one eight ok. Ok let's take a look then at quick study one
twelve quick study one twelve okey doke now I will have a test question like this I guarantee
I think another skill we want to have is to look at a account and know what financial
statement it goes on to look at an account and look on what financial statement it goes
on. Matter of fact when students come into my office regardless of their accounting class
they're taking. I always like to do things to kind of assess to see how strong their
foundation is in accounting and the first thing and one of the first thing I'll ask
of this let me give you some accounts tell me what financial statement they're on and
if they don't know how to do this then I know we have work to do. This is one of those fundament
things that you want to have ok. Quick study one twelve indicate which financial statement
will appear income statement, balance sheet, statement of owner's equity, or the statement
of cash flows not real concerned about the statement of cash flows, because you're not
going to prepare in this class I want you to know it exists but that's about it. Ok
assets go on what? Assets on the balance sheet. On quick study one twelve revenues goes on
what? income statement what does the liabilities go on? Balance sheet equipment goes on the
balance sheet. Withdrawals? Statements of owner's equity, statement of owner's equity
for withdrawals. Expenses goes on the income statement. Total liabilities and equity balance
sheet. Cash from operating activities actually goes on the cash flow statement I don't expect
you to know that. The net increase and the decrease in cash also goes on the cash flow
statement I'm not so concerned that you know about that ok. What if one of the choices
would've been ending balance of owner's capital what would the answer be? Ending balance of
owner's capital actually there's two of them right? It's the last line of your statement
of equity and then it also flows over to the balance sheet. So the ending balance of owner's
capital actually shows up on two financial statements. Statement of equity and the balance
sheet remember how these things flow income statement, statement of equity, balance sheet
have to prepare them in that order, and that's what we're going to do now right. How did
you guys do on exercise one fourteen one fifteen one sixteen cool? Here's what I want to do
this is kind of a simplified this is probably the most simplest example that you'll do and
I'll tell you why here in a second. But here is why here's kind of the process I encourage
students to utilize when they have a problem like this. Is to go through each of these
items or accounts before you start doing the financial statements and decide what financial
statement they go on. So let's take a look here cash is on the balance sheet is that
correct? as is accounts receivable supplies land office equipment accounts payable all
of those or on that balance sheet correct? Now see they made it easy for you because
they kind of grouped everything together. We're start working on one today that's not
as easy, but they grouped everything together as far as what financial statement it goes
on. Now owner's investment and let's assume that those were made on the second or the
third of October that would go on what? Statement of owner's equity what about the cash withdrawals
by owner? Statement of owner's equity correct? Consulting fees earned that's another sort
of terms for revenues that goes on the income statement as does renting expense, salaries
expense, telephone expense, miscellaneous expense those all go on the income statement
ok. Now as we prepare those financial statements which one are we going to start with? The
income statement and as you utilize these or as you put these on one of the financial
statements put a little check number or circle the account that you know it ended up somewhere.
So let's take a look at exercise one fourteen the answer ok. Alright ok so were going to
use which ones on the income statement? That one that one that one that one and that one
correct? And the income statement looks like this ok. That's what the income statement
looks like I'm going to make some comments in but I first want you to take a look at
it see if you're numbers are right. Ok let me make some comments about it first of all
its prepared in proper form or good form isn't it. You have the name of the company the name
of the statement and it's dated properly don't just put October thirty one put for the month
ended October thirty one now they didn't give us a year or you would have put that as well.
Now they have their revenues and then they have their expenses common question is well
what if my expenses are in a different order that's completely fine you know they obviously
did this from largest expense down to smallest expense which is a common way you'll see an
income statement but you can do it you can list those however you want ok. Now I want
to make sure I want to make sure that you listed those expenses I don't want to just
see that for your income statement those number right there no I want the details as far as
what those expenses are that gives the reader a lot more information so they can make their
decisions correct? Alright any questions on that yours might look a little different like
I said that's ok any question on that? Kind of a rule of thumb is often you'll put a dollar
sign at the very top and a dollar sign at the very bottom ok, but you don't have to
put dollar signs everywhere here they did because it was the top of this column ok.
Any questions on the income statement? Ok now let's take a look at the statement of
equity let's see if we can get them both on here. Ok and where do we get that net income?
It flows down doesn't it; it flows down from the statement of equity which is why we have
to prepare them in this order. Ok alright the beginning balance of capital was zero
we added investments by owner of seventy four thousand which was made on either October
second or October third I can't remember on which I told you we add the net income you
know this subtotal right here I think is kind of not a real worthwhile subtotal if you didn't
have that that's fine then you deduct your withdrawals by the owner and you get in king
capital at October thirty first is this prepared in proper form or in good form yes name of
the statement name of the company and its dated properly it will always be dated the
same way between the statement of equity and the income statement. Ok so is there any questions
on that any question on those like I said I promise you you'll be doing this on tests
ok on the first test which is over chapters on and two. Ok what's the next one we prepare
the balance sheet, and what's the ending balance of capital its seventy five seven fifty if
you look over here right. The ending balance is seventy five seven fifty right here at
the bottom and that's going to flow over to your balance sheet. There it is right there
whoops let me get it straight first there it is right there ok take a look at that I'll
let you check your number right there then I'll have some comment about it. Ok first
thing you look at with a balance sheet is you want to make sure it balances do the total
assets equal total liabilities plus the equity? Yes now make sure you total those and make
sure you label them I don't like numbers that don't have a label next to them especially
the one at the very bottom so make sure you say total assets eighty three two fifty total
liabilities and equity eight three two fifty. Is it prepared in proper form or good form
yes the name of the company the name of the statement and its dated properly now this
one is dated you can either say as of October thirty first or just October thirty first
but do not say for the month ending October thirty first a balance sheet is a snap shot
in time correct? So we want to make sure that it's dated correctly to reflect that. What
happens if your balance sheet doesn't t balance? You did a booboo made a mistake right? Now
when you guys take the test and when I ask you to prepare these three financial statements
I've had students go absolutely bananas because their balance sheet did not balance. I'm a
pretty nice guy I mean if you prepared it if you did a pretty good job and you maybe
just made a math error along the way but it's prepared neatly and you did most things correct
you're going to get partial credit but please don't be like some students in the past I've
had had students pend thirty minutes on their financial statements on their test because
they could not because they were getting a little obsessive it doesn't balance and so
they were neglecting the rest of their tests and because they spent thirty minutes I've
got to find why it didn't balance right relax breath deep do the best job you can do the
rest of your test if you got time you can come look for it again, but there is partial
credit here ok, because a lot of times my students will on the test they'll thumb back
and do the problems first the financial statements they'll do that first before they do any of
the multiple choice or anything else. Any questions on that? Great. I believe that was
all the homework I assigned is that correct? Ok so were going to talk about a few other
things today and then were going to do a little bit of work here in class on some things today,
but one thing I want to go back through today is remember when and we talked about the revenue
recognition principle ok. Let's take a look at the screen real quick ok that we talked
about there's principles and assumptions of accounting for which all the rules are built
upon correct? And we talked about the revenue recognition principle which is very important
just to reiterate we recognize revenue when it is earned when is it earned? When the product
or service has been delivered to the customer not necessarily when the cash changes hand
correct? So let's just do a quick example and I want to introduce you to a new account.
Let's say our buddy Jake here let's go back to the example let's say he's the guy who
mows my lawn let's say that I actually let's say yeah let's look at the perspective of Jake
not from me but the perspective of Jake and his accounting books. So let's say hey can
you mow my lawn next week and he says yeah that's nice and its fifty dollars right to
mow my loan and he goes yeah that's right let me give you the fifty dollars now but
you don't need to mow it till like next Thursday he says that's fine I don't know if I'm going
to see you next week so let me just give you the fifty now so I give him the fifty dollar
bill. Well on Jakes accounting records and if we were doing the transaction analysis
how would we record that? Well I'll show you we would say we would say cash for Jake went
up by fifty and then we would have an account called unearned revenue that will also go
up by fifty and unearned revenue is a liability. Sometimes people think that unearned revenue
is an revenue because it has the word revenue in it but its not. Unearned revenue is a liability
account and thus it goes with the other liabilities on which financial statement where do liabilities
go balance sheet unearned revenues is a liability and it goes the balance sheet so taking a
look back at this Jake when I give you fifty dollars and you're keeping track of this in
your records your cash goes up by fifty an your unearned revenue goes up by fifty. Well
Thursday comes and you mow my lawn well a transaction that you will make at that point
is your revenue will go up by fifty dollars as soon as you're done mowing my lawn. And
unearned revenue that liability now goes down because you satisfied that. Does that make
sense? And of course me as the customer I don't know your making this entry I really
don't care, but for your books taking one more look at this when you got the cash, cash
went up by fifty unearned revenue a liability when you provided the service unearned revenue
went down a liability was decreased and revenue you can book it as revenue at that point cool.
Ok let's talk about these other principles what about the cost principle? Well the cost
principle is this that means that you base your accounting information on actual costs
because that is objective let me give you an example. Marlin let's say that you had
a business and you bought a used truck for it off of Craig's list and I said how much
did you buy the truck for and you say I bought it for eight thousand dollars cash and I said
eight thousand cash is what you paid for it that's good deal. And you say here's the beautiful
part Dave I took it to my brother who works at a used car lot he knows cars he knows what
they're worth he knows trucks he knows what's they're worth he said this thing is worth
at least thirteen thousand I got a deal you know I looked it up on the bluebook value
it said it's twelve thousand nine hundred and I got it for eight I got a deal on this
thing, this thing is worth five thousand more than what I paid for it ok well that's all
good and fine but when you record that in your books it goes on your books at eight
thousand, because that's what you paid for it and if I look at your cancelled check it's
going to say eight thousand dollars right? We can't just put assets on what we feel like
their worth because that would be pretty easy to distort wouldn't it right? Ok so we put
what we paid for it that's the cost principle I don't want to focus too much on this one
this is more of a chapter three principle concept but this talks about how we're going
to match the expenses to the revenues that they help generate let's just wait till chapter
three to talk about matching principle I won't be asking that on the first test. What about
the full disclosure principle a company is required to report the details behind the
financial statements that would impact the decisions of the user I want to show you something
here if you turn in the very, very back of your book you're going to see a real life
financial report you're not going to be able to see the details, but if you look in the
very back of your book its pages like A two A three A four this is a exact photo copy
of annual report of this company this is a real life company Research in Motion I think
they do like cell phones and stuff ok. Well as you thumb through it you're going to see
on page A five the balance sheet you're going to see the statement of operations which is
a nice way to say the income statement there's a statement of equity on page A seven here's
the statement of cash flows I talked about that one now you can kind of thumb through
that at home I know you can't see the details either on the screen here in class or on your
monitor but the next thing that they have is they have notes and notes and notes they
talk about their inventory they talk about their fixed assets they talk about their investments
they have some other little reports and schedules here to kind of support things ok they have
a lot of different notes and stuff don't they? Well those are called the notes to the financial
statements alright now the matter of fact let's say you're considering investing in
a company and you get an annual report and if you're in a business class you might have
to analyze a real life company someday and you might have to go obtain an annual report
I actually say before you look at the financial statements look through those notes look through
the notes that I showed you. It will talk about things about here's what are company
does, this is what we sell, this is where are markets are located geographically; these
are some major changes that happened this year. And then they will talk about some of
their different accounts then go look at those financial statements and it makes a lot more
sense right? Cause you got some context to put it in does that make sense? But going
to this financial statement I'm sorry these ah going to the principle the full disclosure
principle that just states that a company is required to report those details ok there
not the financial statement themselves but their the notes to the financial statements.
Does that make sense? Ok let's go to the next page of principles there's also something
called a going concerned assumption now this the assumption that the business is going
to continue operating. As oppose to being liquidated or closed or sold in the near term
now if you did think it was going to be closed or liquidated in the short term it would have
to say so prominently in the notes that I just showed you. That's pretty important isn't
it? Ok but if you don't see that you can assume it's going to continue going on. Marlin? Good
question great question the ones that you saw are annual ok but most companies prepare
monthlies for their own use but the annual report is obviously just twelve months good
question. Any other questions? Great question that was obviously a large company wasn't
it? And large you asked if all companies have to do this or just large ones. All companies
do now you can even here's the deal if you are a publicly traded company like Research
in Motion that's their annual report they send that to the shareholders or if you're
thinking about investing in it they'll send it to you. But you can be a small company
like let's go back to Jake let's say he has a landscaping business. Well you're not publicly
traded you're not buying stock their not following you on CNN financial right? But let's say
that you have a loan with the bank a bank helped you start your business by giving you
a loan a lot of times one of the requirements of that loan is that you have to provide periodic
financial statements either every quarter or every year and when you give those yes
you have to have the notes behind them as well it may look as colorful it may not look
as slick, it may not have pretty pictures, but you have to prepare the same thing. Now
if you're just a business on your own lets say Jessica owns her own business no bank
has given her money you know it's just her. She'll probably want to prepare those financial
statements and she'll probably have to have stuff like that for tax purposes, but then
the requirements are a little bit less ok. So but yeah when I was an external auditor
I would help do those financial statements and help write those notes and a lot of those
things so good question. Any other questions? Ok let's hit on these last ones real quick
the monetary unit assumption. This is the assumption that says transactions and stuff
will be reflected in monetary units. So if it's the United States it will be the U.S
dollar if it's in Europe it will be the euro, if it's in Japan it will be the yen. Your
financial statements will be in some sort of monetary unit that goes without saying.
What about the business entity assumption? That states a business is accounted for separately
from other businesses entities including its owner. So Jake your landscaping business that
you have it keep track of it separately from your personal life and I think we talked about
that in a previous lecture don't comingle don't comingle your records don't comingle
your check books you want to keep track of it separately and if you have one or more
businesses you want to keep track of those separately from each other it's is own business
entity. Make sense? It's a big mess if you get it all mixed up ok. And then the last
thing is the time period assumption. That states that the life of a company can be divided
into time periods such as months or years or quarters and all those sort of things we
can kind of divide things up properly, and we'll talk more about that in chapter three,
but that's the time period assumption ok any questions on that? Yes Kara "On the business
entity part of it lets say your business checking accounts low and you transfer money from like
your personal what would that be considered and how would you pay would you have to pay
yourself back?" That's a good question what you're saying if your business is low on cash,
but you've got some personal money you want to put it into it that's just another investment
by the owner into the business you know that investment by the owner is one of those things
that increases owner's capital or equity that can happen not just at the very beginning
of the business but at any time and you could treat that as one or two ways but your probably
going to treat that as an investment by the owner into the business and then of course
you can withdraw if you start getting a lot of cash in there you can withdraw cash from
the business then it will decrease capital and equity so ok. Good alright let me look
over my notes real quick see if we gone over what I want to get through. Alright what I
am going to do now is. I am going to Jake will you do me a favor and hand one of these
out to each person here we are going to work on something this is a financial preparation
I'm going to put it on the screen for you. This is for valentine tree trimming valentine
tree trimming and what I want you to do is prepare the three financial statements for
valentine tree trimming ok. Now let me give you a few check figures on this we're going
to start on it during class, but I don't think well have time to do the whole thing, but
let me give you some check figure the net income is going to be seven thousand and forty
dollars ok. The ending capital on the statement of equity is going to be thirty five forty
and on the balance sheet the total assets will be thirty four oh twenty. Those are all
dollar figures ok now you're going to notice something different on this valentine tree
trimming take a look at the list of accounts what is different? What's different about
my list of accounts? "They're all mixed up." Yeah its alphabetical I didn't group them
all together by what statement they go on ok like the book did I just gave them to you
in alphabetical order so you really need to go through you really need to go through first
and decide what financial statement it goes on. And then look now don't get started yet
guys and then as you use these accounts put a check mark by it or I guarantee it you're
going to miss one so circle it or put a check mark as you do it ok. Now you folks at home
while watching this you have this work sheet ok this in the lessons tab underneath the
chapter under chapter one you'll see valentine tree trimming its called something like that
so you to print these things out and have them ready for class. Cause were going to
work on this in class a little bit while that snazzy jazzy JCCC music plays, and you folks
at home work on it as well lets at least get through the income statement. Any question
before we turn the music on and turn the audio off? Any questions? Ok the first thing you
want to do is go through that list of accounts decide what statement it goes on and then
start preparing your income statement then your statement of equity and then your balance
sheet. This is a passed test question this exact question was on a test so this is going
to be a good indicator on what you need to do on the exam. So let's play that snazzy
jazzy music and let's go ahead and work on this for a while. Wait question before we
go "is unearned revenue on the income statement or is that a liability" unearned is that account
that we just talked about and what is that account is unearned revenue? It's a liability
it goes on the balance sheet, but where do people always make the mistake on the test
and put it on they put it on they put it as a revenue in the income statement. Unearned
revenue is a liability ok? Any other questions? Ok let's start to work on that. Music (39:00-47:25)
ok a couple people ask some good questions as they were working on it, and I'll answer
those ok. Ok let's just look at the incomes statement let's just look at the incomes statement
and you can do the rest for homework. Here's the income statement can you guys see that
alright? You got your revenues minus your expenses equal a net income of seven thousand
forty right? Did I prepare this in good form or proper form yes now did you guys did you
guys circle these or check them off as you were using them? Do that I promise if you
don't do that you're going to forget to put an account on a financial statement. So the
first thing that you should do is decide what statement these things go on and then circle
them or check them off as you go use them ok. Now somebody asked on this one they didn't
see and investment by owner there's not always going to be investment by owner every month,
but the top lining of statement of equity will be that balance of capital ok will be
that balance of capital at seventy one thirteen of twenty eight thousand. So what I want you
to do is there any other questions about this? About the income statement? Kara? On the directions
it just says August two thousand thirteen should we put just that or should we put the
difference? That's a good question a lot of times things will be stated like that its
understood it said august thirty one two thousand thirteen so if you didn't that's fine but
I said for the month ended august thirty one good point. Any other question? Let me give
you your homework here is the homework I want you to do I want you to finish the valentine
hand out I want you to do quick study one point six and then I want you to read about
return on assets ROA its on page twenty two and twenty three in your book and do exercise
one eighteen ok each chapter has a ratio at the end of it and well talk about those make
sure for next lecture which is a very important lecture you have your PowerPoint's for chapter
two ok. That you have your PowerPoint's for chapter two is everybody here signed up for
connect ok good are you folks at home signed up for connect yet. Because next class period
were going to talk a little bit more about the connect assignments. Alright any questions?
Got your homework? Good class period next class period is a real important one well
see you bye-bye.
