Lecture – 02

Conceptual Framework of Accounting

Lecture Highlights

 Need for conceptual framework

 Accounting Principles depend

 Basic Objective of Financial Reporting

 Qualitative characteristics of accounting


information 18
Conceptual Framework:

A conceptual framework is like a constitution. It is “a coherent system of


interrelated objectives and fundamentals that can lead to consistent
standard and that prescribes the nature, function, and limits of financial
accounting and financial statements.”
To ease the definition of conceptual framework, we can state that conceptual
framework is like a boundary. The prepares and users of accounting information are
permitted to work within this boundaries and they are not allowed to encroach this
rules and regulations.

 Need for conceptual framework:

 As an aid in developing more useful, consistent standards.


 As an aid in solving practical problems by reference to an existing
framework of basic theory.
 In combination with good judgment, a sound body of theory will help
accountants focus on logical and consistent solutions to accounting
problems as they arise.

 Accounting Principles depend on:

 General acceptance.
 Relevance & reliability.
 Usefulness.
 Cost/benefit constraints.

19
 Basic Objective of Financial Reporting / Accounting is to provide
information that is:

 Useful to those making investment and credit decisions.


 Directed at persons with a reasonable level of understanding of business
and economic activities.
 Helpful to present and future investors, creditors in assessing future cash
flows.
 About economic resources, the claims on those resources and changes in
them.

 Qualitative characteristics of accounting information are those that


help distinguish better (more useful) information from inferior (less
useful) information.

 The understandability of accounting information:

 There must be a connection between users of information and the


decisions they make.
 Users must be knowledgeable and information presented in a form, which
users will understand and be able to employ appropriately.

20
Qualitative Characteristics of Accounting Information:

Primary Qualities Relevant Reliability

Verifiability
Predictive value

Representational faithfulness

Feedback value

Neutrality
Timeliness

Comparability/Consistency
Secondary Qualities

Materiality

Primary Characteristics of Accounting Information:

 Primary Characteristics: Relevance and Reliability

 Relevance: It states that the information should be-


 Capable of making a difference in a decision.
 Helpful in making predictions about ultimate outcomes of past, present and
future events: ‘Predictive value’.
 Helps users to confirm or correct prior expectations: ‘feedback value’.
 Contains the element of ‘timeliness’. The information is available in time to

21
 influence a decision.

 Reliability: It states that -


 Information can be relied on to represent the true, underlying situation to
those who do not have the time or ability to verify it.
 ‘Verifiability’ is the ability to arrive at the same conclusion, given the same
information, by independent evaluators or users.
 ‘Representational faithfulness’ is an important element of reliability in that it
means the information represents what really existed or happened.
 ‘Neutrality’ is the characteristic that the information presented is free from
bias. The information presented does not favor one party’s interests over
another.

Secondary Characteristics of Accounting Information:

 Secondary Characteristics are: Comparability and Consistency

 Comparability: It states that-


 Information is more useful if it lends itself to comparison with similar
information about another enterprise.
 Information is measured and reported in a similar manner for different
enterprises.
 This characteristic allows users to identify real differences between
enterprises, not those due to non-comparable accounting methods.
 Allows for the allocation of resources to the areas of greatest benefit.

22
 Consistency: It states that-

 This is achieved when an enterprise applies the same accounting principles in


a similar manner from one period to the next.
 Accounting principles may be changed when it can be demonstrated the
result would be preferable.

If principles are changed this must be disclosed as well as the justification for,
nature and effect of the change.

23
Basic Assumptions in Accounting:

 Economic Entity Assumption: It states that-

 The economic entity can be identified with a particular unit of


accountability.
 The business is separate and distinct from its owners. No commingling of
assets and other financial elements.
 Departments or divisions of an entity may be considered separate entities.

Accounting assumption not necessarily a legal one.

 Going Concern Assumption: It states that-

 That the business will be in business tomorrow.


 Implies accrual, historical accounting should be followed.
 Liquidation accounting is not followed unless indicated.

 Monetary Unit: It states that-

 Money is the common unit of measure of economic transactions.


 Use of a monetary unit is more relevant, simple, available, understandable
and useful.
 The dollar is assumed to remain relatively stable in value.

 Periodicity (Time Period) Assumption: It states that-

 Economic activity of an entity must be artificially divided into time periods


for reporting purposes.
 Adjusting entries must be done to bring books up to date at the end of
the time period.

24
 Shorter time periods more subject to revision but more timely

Basic Principles in Accounting:

 Historical Cost Principle: It states that-

 Once a transaction is recorded at its acquisition price it is subsequently


not changed. This is deemed to be more reliable than other valuation
methods.
 Applies to assets and liabilities.
 Prepares and users find current fair value information to be useful as well.

 Revenue Recognition Principle: It states that-

 Revenue is recognized when it is realized (or realizable) and earned.


 Revenue normally recognized at time of sale, with exceptions.
 During production (for example, long-term construction).
 End of production, before sale takes place. This might occur when
there is an active market such as mining.
 Receipt of cash (for example, installment sales)

 Matching Principle: It states that-

 “Let expenses follow revenues”


 Match (record) expenses to the revenues, which they helped generate.
 Match revenues and expenses to the time period benefited.

 Full Disclosure Principle: It states that-

 To report what a reasonable person would need to know to make an


informed decision.

25
 Disclosure may be achieved within the body of the financial statements,
the notes to those statements, or as supplementary information.
 Disclosure is not a substitute for proper accounting.

Constraints or Limitations in Accounting:

 Cost-Benefit Relationship: It states that-

 The cost of information should not outweigh the benefit derived.


 Costs and benefits are not always derivable, obvious or quantifiable.
 Sound judgment must be used.

 Materiality: It states that-

 Relates to an item’s importance to a firm’s overall financial operations.


 An item must make a difference to be material and be disclosed.
 Materiality has both quantitative and qualitative characteristics.
 Quantitative--Amount must be significant to be separately disclosed.
 Qualitative--Transaction has selected characteristics that require close
attention, disclosure. (For example, a forged check of a minimal
amount has cleared the company’s account. This would indicate
internal control problems!)

 Industry Practices: It states that-

 Peculiar nature of some industries and business concerns sometimes


requires departure from basic theory.
 The financial statements shall not mislead a reader. If following “pure”
accounting theory results in statements that are not comparable or
consistent, not relevant or reliable then theory should be adjusted.

26
 Conservatism: It states that-

 If there is a range of equally acceptable values, select the alternative that


will be least likely to overstate assets or understate liabilities.

In brief the Fundamental Concepts of Accounting are:

Assumptions of Accounting:
 Economic (Separate) entity
 Going concern (Continuity)
 Monetary unit (Unit of measure)
 Periodicity (Time period)

Principles of Accounting:
 Historical cost
 Revenue recognition
 Matching (Expense recognition)
 Full disclosure

Constraints of Accounting:
 Cost-benefit
 Materiality (Materiality threshold)
 Industry practice (Peculiarity)
 Conservatism

Fundamental Concepts of Accounting are discussed briefly below:

Assumptions of Accounting:

27
1.Economic (Separate) entity: Revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, business
equity & transactions of business to be kept separate from those of the owners.

2.Going concern (Continuity): Business has an unlimited life unless it is known to be


otherwise.

3.Monetary unit (Unit of measure): Events must be primarily financial in nature


(expressed in tk.) before recording & reporting; disregarded any effects of inflation or
deflation.

4.Periodicity (Time period): The life of a business can be arbitrarily broken into
monthly, quarterly, and yearly time intervals without material distortion of reported
amounts.

Principles of Accounting:

1.Historical cost: All events to be recorded at original cost.

2.Revenue recognition: Record and report expenses when earned.

3.Matching (Expense recognition): Record & report expenses when incurred.

4.Full disclosure: Add additional information when necessary to provide an adequate


understanding.

Constraints of Accounting:

28
1.Cost-benefit: The cost of providing the information should not exceed the benefits
derived from using the information.

2.Mateiality (Materiality threshold): Insignificant amounts need not be recorded &


reported according to GAAP.

3.Industry practice (Peculiarity): Specialized types business will have their own
way of recording & reporting certain items i.e. a separate set of GAAP for some
business types.

4.Conservatism: When in doubt how to record or report, don’t overstate assets or


revenues

Course Title: Principles of Accounting

Course Code – ACT 1301

Lecture – 03

The Accounting Process-Double Entry system

29
Lecture Highlights

 Definition of Double entry system

 Background of Double entry system

Double Entry System and Accounting Equation:

Double entry bookkeeping is a generally accepted system. This system was first
described by Luca Pacioli in 1494. The system of double entry may be well compared to
a scale, which must have equal weight on both sides in order that the scale is balanced.
Thus, if the weight on one side of the scale is increased or decreased the same weight
must be correspondingly added to, or removed from, the other side. A more common
expression of double entry book keeping is the accounting equation.

The total assets of a firm are always equal to the total equities. This reflects
the fundamental accounting equation of:
A=E
Where A denotes ‘Assets’ and E denotes ‘Equities’

‘Assets’ are the goods and property, which the firm owns as well as claims
against outsiders that the firm has not yet collected.
‘Equities’ are the claims against the assets and indicate the sources of the assets.
The sources may be the owners themselves or outsiders. Due to the difference in the
nature of these claims, equities are divided into the claims of the creditors and claims of
the owners. Hence the fundamental equation can be explained as follows:
A=L + P
Where

30
A = Assets
L = Liabilities (Loan from outsiders i.e. Creditors)
P = Proprietorship or Capital or Owners Equity (Owners claims in the
organization)

So the Accounting Equation is: A=L+P

Balance Sheet of an organization shows the financial position of an organization


at a certain period of time. Accounting equation equates the financial position i.e. all
the assets of an organization equals to the internal liabilities (Capital or Owners equity)
and external liabilities (Creditors) of an organization.

Now we will explain what assets, liabilities are and owner’s equity
means:

Assets: Assets can generate income for an organization and the physical objects or
services that have financial worth.

Types of assets:
1. Physical /tangible assets: Land, building, cash, motorcar etc. that we can
see and have the physical existence.
2. Right for receiving payment: Accounts Receivable, Sundry Debtors, Notes
Receivable, advances to employees.
3. Right for receiving services: Prepaid insurances, unexpired rates etc.
4. Intangible assets: Goodwill, patents etc that has no physical existence.

In another sense assets can be classified into two groups:


1. Long-term assets: Those assets that will give benefit more than one-year .For
example: Land, Equipment etc.

2. Short term assets /Current assets: Those assets that will be matured within
one year. For example: Cash, bank balance, Accounts receivable etc.

Liabilities:
-Claims in the assets by outsiders or creditors
-Obligation to pay for purchases

Liabilities can be classified into two groups:

31
1. Short term /current liabilities: Those liabilities that will have to pay with in
one year. For example: Notes payable, accounts payable, salaries payable etc.
2. Long team liabilities: Those liabilities that we can avail for more than one
year. For example: Debenture, Bond Payable, Mortgage payable etc.

Owner’s Equity (O.E):


- The claims of owners from to organizations assets
- It can be said ‘Residual Claim’ since at the time of termination of the
organization the creditors are firstly paid and the remaining amount paid to the
owners.

The Accounting Process- Accounting Equation

32
Lecture Highlights

Rules of solving accounting equation problem

The following Four types of transactions that changes the Capital or


Owner’s Equity (O.E):

0 Capital or
O.E.
1. Owners contribution (Any assets invested by the owners) +
2.Owner’s withdrawals (Any thing taken by owner’s from the -
organization)
3.Revenues/Income +
4.Cost/ Expenses -

Examples of Accounting Equation:

+

=Tk. 13, 95,000 =Tk. 13, 95,000

Now we will explain the above transactions:

Transaction no. 1: Investment by the owner will increase cash taka for the
organization. As a result cash increase (+) and since the owners give the fund to the
organization, it will increase the capital or Owner’s equity (+).

Transaction no.2: The organization purchases a car. As a result cash will


reduce (-) and on the other hand the organization will have a motorcar of the same
amount. So in the asset column a new asset named ‘Motor Car’ will be added. Now the
organization will have two assets –One is cash and another is Motorcar.

Transaction no 3: Purchase another car on account or on credit of tk. 4,


00,000. The organization will have a new asset (Motor car) and will be added with the
Motorcar column in the asset side. Since the organization did not paid cash for
purchasing the car, the organization will be liable to pay the amount to at a future date.
As a result this will increase the organizations liability and will be added with the liability
column. So the liability will increase (+).

Transaction no 4: Interest earned in cash taka. It will increase the cash of the
organization. So it will be added with cash (+) and on the other hand as it is revenue
for the organization it will increase the capital or Owner’s equity of the organization. So
added with the Owner’s equity (+)

34
Transaction no 5: Salary paid to the organizations staffs. As a result cash will
be reduced (-) .On the other hand since it is an expense for the organization, it will
reduce the capital of the organization. So owner’s equity reduction.

Relative discussion: Now we will explain the above problem-

Jan. 1: The owner starts his own business .It will increase the cash for the business and
on the other hand will increase the capital for the business.
2: Rented an office for the business; paid in advance by the business. This will reduce
the cash for the business. On the other hand rent paid in advance (any ‘advance
expense’ treated as an ‘asset’ in accounting) will increase asset of the business in the
name ‘Prepaid rent’.
3:Hire a secretary is not any financial transaction for the organization. It will not be
recorded in the books of accounts.
4:Purchased-art equipment will increase an asset for the organization and also decrease
cash position for the organization.
5.Purchase-office equipment will increase asset for the organization .It will be recorded
in the asset side in the column ‘office equipment’. To purchase this 1500 cash is paid
will reduce the cash position of the organization. Remaining 1500 will be given later
on .So it will increase liability for the organization and will be recorded as Accounts
payable (Morgan co.) in the liability side.
6:Purchase art supplies will increase asset of the organization. This purchase is done on
credit .It will increase the liability.
8: Insurance is paid to cover the future risk. It is an advance payment. It is an asset for
the business. This will be recorded as ‘Prepaid insurance’ in the asset side. On the other
hand it will reduce the cash for the organization.
9: Payment is made to accounts payable (liability) will reduce the liability. On the other
hand will reduce the cash.
10: The business provides service to its clients. It is an income for the business and will
increase the owner’s equity. On the other hand it will also increase e the cash position
of the organization.

37
12:Payment is made in cash. It will reduce the cash position of the organization. Since
it is an expense it will reduce the owners equity.
15:The firm accept an advance payment from a client although it did not provide any
service to its clients. This will increase cash position as cash is increased. On the other
hand this will increase liability for the business as any advance receipt is treated as a
liability in accounting.
19:The business provides services to its clients. It is an income for the organization and
will increase the owner’s equity. On the other hand the payment will be collected in the
next month. This will be recorded as an asset in the name ‘Accounts Receivable’ in the
asset side.
25:The owner taken money from the business (Anything taken by the owner from the
business is considered as ‘Withdrawals or Drawings’ and is treated an expense for the
business). This will decrease the owner’s equity. On the other hand, cash will be
decreased as the owner takes cash.
26:It is an expense for the business and will reduce the owner’s equity. On the other
hand cash is not paid and it will increase the liability of the organization in the name of
‘Accrued Telephone Bill’

 Accounting Cycle

 Rules for Debit & Credit

Accounting Cycle: In the accounting process, the accounting activities rotate in a similar way or
follows the same procedure in each year .The sequence or process is maintained by the
accounting activities can be entailed as ‘ accounting cycle’.

40
Step in account cycle:
The following steps are followed in the accounting cycle:
1. Source document collection and recording in Journal.
2. Classified posting into ‘general ledger’
3. Proving periodic arithmetical accuracy into ‘ trial balance’.
4. Adjusting ‘general ledger and preparation of work sheet.
5. Preparation of Final Financial Statement.

In every transaction the above-mentioned steps are followed. First the transactions are
recorded in Journal book and classified them and posting into the ledger account. The third step
is to provide the arithmetical accuracy through Trial Balance. In the fourth stage, adjusting
entries are incorporated with the Trial Balance accounts and worksheet is prepared. And finally,
various financial statements are prepared i.e. Income Statement, Cash Flow Statement, Retained
Earnings Statements, and Balance Sheet etc. This entire process is called as the ‘Accounting
cycle’.

Step 1: Identification and recording of transaction and other events- Journal.

The first step in the Accounting cycle is to record the transactions in the books of
accounts. This process is called ‘to record’ into the journal books. The books are also called
‘Book of original Entry’ as transactions occur they are recorded first in the journal.

Simply Journal can be defined as recordings of transactions in a set of books in a


systematic way according to days

Before starting to record the transactions into the journal book, we will discuss about the
‘Accounts.’

Accounts: An account is simply a place where similar transactions and events, which occur
during a particular period, are summarized and accumulated.

Classification of Accounts:
1. Personal account: Any person or organizations. Example: Mr. X’s a/c, Beximco co. ltd.
a/c.
2. Real a/c: any assets i.e. cash, bank, machinery, motorcar etc.
3. Nominal a/c: Nominal accounts are of two types:
(a) Expense a/c: Any expenses i.e. salary paid, commission paid etc.
(b) Income a/c: Any earnings or revenues i.e. interest earned, commission earned etc.

Debit & Credit:

41
The term ‘Debit’ & ‘Credit’ gives an accounting explanation of the mathematical changes
in the individual accounts. There must be always equal increases and decreases so that equality
of the two sides of the accounting equation is maintained.

Journal rules:

1.In personal a/c: Receiver-------Dr


Donor------------Cr
Example: Mr. Hasan gives tk.100 to Mr. Jaman
Here Mr. Hasan and Mr. Jaman both are personal a/c and Jaman is the receiver. So
Jaman’s a/c will be debited. On the other hand Hasan is the donor and his a/c will be credited.
Journal entry: Mr. Jaman’s A/C Dr 100
Mr. Hasan’s A/c Cr 100

2.Real a/c: Asset increases------Dr


Asset decreases-------Cr

Example: Equipment purchased at a cost of tk. 1,00,000.


Equipment is an asset for the organization. So it will be debited. On the other hand cash
is also an asset for the organization. It will be decreased and will be credited.
Journal entry: Equipment A/c Dr 1,00,000
Cash A/c Cr 1,00,000
3.Nominal a/c:
(a) Expense a/c: Expenses increases----Dr
Expenses decreases ------Cr

(b) Income or revenue a/c: Income decreases-----Dr


Income increases-------Cr
Example 1: salaries paid tk. 10,000.
Salaries are an expense for the organization and it will be debited. On the other
hand salary is been paid in cash. Cash is an asset and it decreases so will be credited.
Journal would be: Salaries a/c Dr. 10,000
Cash a/c Cr. 10,000

Example 2: Interest income tk. 5000


Interest is an income for the organization and will be credited. On the other hand income
is earned in cash. So it will be debited.
Journal entry: Cash a/c Dr. 5000
Interest income Cr. 5000

4.Capital, reserve, and liabilities a/c: Any decreases -----Dr


Any increase -----Cr
Example: Mr. Hasan invested tk.100, 000 in the business. Here cash is increased and on the
other hand Capital is increased (Anything given by the owner’s to the business is the
considered as the Capital of the business). So it will be credited.

TRIAL BALANCE

Trial balance:
Under double entry system, for every debit entry there is a corresponding credit
entry of the same amount. Consequently, the total amount of all the debit entries
should be equal to the total of all credit entries. In order to verify, whether the two
totals are equal, a statement is prepared periodically showing the debit items in one
column and the credit items in another. This statement is called the “Trial Balance”.

There are two methods of preparing a trial balance- (1) Trial Balance prepared
with the gross totals of the debit and credit sides of each ledger account, and (2) Trial
Balance prepared with the balance of each account. When both gross amounts and
balances of the accounts are shown in the trial balance it becomes a third method and
it is called a mixed Trial Balance. In actual practice, the first and the third methods are
used very rarely while the second method is used generally.
Different classes of errors that may exist in spite of the agreement of the Trial
Balance are discussed below:

63
(a) Errors of omission: Such an error arises when any transaction is either
wholly or partially unrecorded in the in the books. In the former case, the trial
balance will not be affected, and thus the error will be more difficult to detect.
Where only one aspect of a transaction is recorded, the omission will throw the
Trial Balance out of agreement.

(b) Errors of commission: Errors of commission arise when transactions are


incorrectly recorded, either wholly or partially. In the former case the Trial
Balance will not the trial balance out of agreement to that extent.

(c)Clerical errors: A clerical error is a form of error of commission. It may consist


of an incorrect posting, or a mistake in casting, or the transposition of figures, or
posting to the wrong account. Unless the error affects the debit and credit
equally, the incorrect posting and mistakes in casting will cause the trial balance
to be out of the agreement. Posting to the wrong account but on correct side,
however, will not affect the agreement of the Trial Balance.

(d) Errors of Principle: An error of principle arises by reason of a


transaction being recorded in a fundamentally incorrect manner. Certain errors of
principle may not affect the ultimate profit, but it may cause a revenue item
being posted to wrong revenue account. Major errors of principle directly affect
profit. They may be caused by treating a revenue item as an asset or liability, or
vice versa. These errors will not throw the trial balance out of agreement.

(e) Compensating errors: A compensating error is one, which is counter


balanced by another error or errors of the same amount either in the same
account or other accounts. Such error will not cause the Trial Balance to
disagree.

From the above discussion it is clear that, a Trial Balance may agree in spite of the
presence of many errors mentioned above. Hence an agreed Trial Balance cannot be
regarded as a conclusive evidence of the correctness of the books of accounts, rather it
may be regarded as a prima facie proof that the posting are arithmetically correct.
Rules regarding the Trial Balance:
The following rules are followed in solving a Trial Balance-
1.All assets are recorded in the Debit side
2. .All the expenses are recorded in the Debit side
3.All revenues are recorded in the Credit side

64
4.Capital, liabilities and Reserves are recorded in the Credit side

Examples:

From the following balances of accounts prepare a Trial Balance as at 31 st December

Basic Elements of Financial Statements:

 Assets: Probable future economic events obtained or controlled by a particular


entity as a result of past transactions or events.

 Liabilities: Probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present


obligations of a particular entity to transfer assets or provide services to other
entities in the future as a result of past transactions or events.

 Owner’s Equity: Residual interest in the assets of an entity that remains after
deducting its liabilities.

 Revenues: Inflows or other enhancements of assets of an entity or settlement


of its liabilities during a period from delivering or producing goods, rendering
services, or other activities that constitute an entity’s major, ongoing operations.

 Expenses: Outflows or other using up of assets or incurrence of liabilities during


a period from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or carrying out
other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing, major or central operations.

 Gains: Increases in net equity from peripheral or incidental transactions of an


entity and from all other transactions and other events and circumstances
affecting the entity during a period except those that result from revenues or

Balance Sheet:
The Balance Sheet in example 5 was explained by adding subsections for
current assets, property, plant, and equipment, and current liabilities. Such a Balance
Sheet is a classified Balance Sheet. In the following paragraphs, we describe some of
the sections and subsections that may be used in a Balance Sheet.

Assets:
Assets are commonly divided into classes for presentation on the Balance Sheet.
Two of the classes are (1) current assets and (2) fixed or long-term assets i.e. property,
plant, and equipment.

Current assets:
Cash and other assets that are expected to be converted to cash or sold or used
up usually within one year or less, through the normal operations of the business, are
called Current Assets. In addition to cash, the current assets usually owned by a service

87
business are notes receivable, accounts receivable, supplies, and other prepaid
expenses.
Notes receivable are amounts customers owe. They are written promises to pay
the amount of the note and possibly interest at an agreed rate. Accounts receivable are
also amounts customers owe, but they are less formal than notes and do not provide
for interest. Accounts receivable normally result from providing services or selling
merchandise on account. Notes receivable and accounts receivable are current assets
because they usually are converted to cash within one year or less.

Property, plant, and equipment:


The property, plant, and equipment section may also be described as ‘ Fixed
asset’ or ‘Plant assets’. Theses assets include equipment, machinery, building, and land.

Liabilities:
Liabilities are the amounts the business owes to creditors. The two most
common classes of liabilities are (1) Current liabilities and (2) long term liabilities.

Current liabilities:
Liabilities that will be due within a short time (usually one year or less) and that
are to be paid out of current assets are called current liabilities. The most common
liabilities in this group are notes payable and accounts payable. Other current liability
accounts commonly found in the ledger are Wages payable, Interest payable, tax
payable and unearned fees.

Long-term liabilities:
Liabilities that will be due for a long time (usually more than one year) are called
long term liabilities. If Computer King had long-term liabilities, they would be reported
below the current liabilities. As long-term liabilities come due and are to be paid within
one year, they are classified as current liabilities. If they are to be renewed rather than
paid, they would continue to be classified as long term. When an asset is pledged as
security for a liability, the obligation may be called a mortgage note payable or a
mortgage payable.

Stockholders equity:
The owners right to the assets of the business are presented on the Balance
Sheet below the liabilities section. The Stockholders Equity is added to the total
liabilities, and this total must be equal to the total assets.

Various Forms of Balance Sheet are depicted below:

Note: It may be noted that in the in the first two Balance Sheet (Balance Sheet for
profit motive organizations and for the Manufacturers) the ‘Assets’ are recorded in the
left side and ‘Liabilities’ are in the right side. On the other hand the ‘Assets’ are
recorded in the right side and ‘Liabilities’ are recorded in the left side in the last Balance
Sheet. This is because ‘Assets’ are recorded in the left side under the American method
and ‘Assets’ are recorded in the right side under the British method. Both recording
systems are valid. The students may follow any system to record transactions in the
Balance Sheet.
