3 A Day in the Life of an Accountant

4 What Do Accountants Do? Accountants make meaningful and effective decisions based on up to date and accurate records of a company or business. Accounting is the process of recording, analyzing, and interpreting the financial or economic activities of a business. Financial activities in a business are recorded as transactions.

5 Financial Statements Financial statements are reports that summarize how well a company is doing financially. There are 3 main financial statements: the Balance sheet, the Income Statement, and the Cash Flow Statement. Who reads financial statements? Investors Auditors Management Government

6 Preparing a Balance Sheet
The Balance sheet show the financial position on any given day of the business It provides information about its assets, liabilities, and equity How the balance sheet gets its name: The left side of the equation (assets) always equals the right side (liabilities plus owner’s equity) Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity

7 The balance sheet contains 3 sections:
ASSETS (Section 1) Items of value that are owned by a business Common assets owned by a business: Cash (bank included) Inventory Equipment Supplies Vehicles Building Accounts Receivable (the term used when someone else owes a business money) Assets should be listed on a balance sheet in order of liquidity (how fast they can be converted into cash)

8 QUESTION Consider Tim Horton’s as a business
What things does Tim Horton’s own that could be considered an asset? Remember that assets have value and are used in the business for an extended period of time > one year

9 Cost Principle The accounting practice requires that assets be recorded at their original cost. Even if the asset is 20 years old, the financial statements always reflect what the company paid for the asset.

10 LIABILITIES (Section 2)
The debts of the business ($ business owes) Common liabilities owed by a business: Accounts Payable (the term used when the business owes someone else money) Bank Loan Mortgage Payable Liabilities should be listed in the order they will be paid back.

11 QUESTION Consider Tim Horton’s as a business
What types debts might Tim Horton’s incur? Think about how they buy assets and other items that are used in the business

12 OWNER’S EQUITY(Section 3)
The amount of assets that remain in a business after the liabilities are paid - this becomes the owner’s stake net worth in the business. The equity in a corporation is called Shareholders equity because the shareholders are the true owners in a corporation.

13 Fundamental Accounting Equation (LS = RS)
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity (OE) OR Assets – Liabilities = Owner’s Equity (OE) Liabilities = Assets – Owner’s Equity (OE)

14 Balance Sheet Challenge
Balance Sheet classification challenge Take a few minutes to complete the challenge and then share your answers with the class

15 Accounting Cycle For accounting purposes, business cycles are typically reported in years referred to as fiscal periods. The Balance Sheet reports information (cumulative) at a specific point in time. A Balance Sheet for December 31st might read December 31, 20XX, or as at December 31, 20XX. The Income Statement reports business results at the end of the cycle. The Income Statement might read, for the month, or year ended December 31st. Unlike the balance sheet, it only reports the net income (loss) for that reporting cycle.

41 Basic Accounting Concepts
Cash-flow Implications of Credit and Debit Cards Businesses that allow customers to use a credit and/or debit card do not have wait for their money (accounts receivables); they receive their money (sales revenue) up front. Since these businesses take a long time to pay their own bills, they invest the customers’ cash to make more money.

42 Basic Accounting Concepts
Interpreting Financial Statements Financial statement information allows accountants to make recommendations to owners regarding future business decisions. Accountants compare data over a set period of time, usually two or more years. A Final Measure of Success For a business to be successful, the return on the owner’s investment should be equal to or greater than the return for a savings account, bond, or mutual fund.
