11
Types of Accrual Adjustments Current assets excluding cash Examples: accounts receivable, grain/feed inventories, market livestock, supplies & prepaid expenses, investments in growing crops Farm accounts payable Accrued interest Other accrued expenses
12
Accrual Adjustments - Noncurrent Assets Depreciation expense is an accrual adjustment typically associated with noncurrent section of the balance sheet. Gains or losses on noncurrent assets that are an ordinary and necessary part of production activities (sales of cull cows/sows) are included in net income from operations. Gains or losses on noncurrent assets that are nonrecurring are included in net income but not net income from operations.

Cost or Market Values? How should farm business assets be valued on the farm balance sheet? A. Market B. Cost C. Both
16
General Advantages Market Values Easy to derive More comparable across farms Benchmark data readily available Better measure of opportunity cost Required by lenders Cost Values More accurate measure of actual performance of invested capital Better measure of financial progress over time Critical for determining the sources of equity change in the business

What are the sources of equity? Paid-in capital/Contributed capital – Contributions of equity from owners Retained earnings – Business generated net income less withdrawals from the business Valuation equity – Excess of the market values of noncurrent assets over their cost values (investment less depreciation) – Valuation equity is unearned and may never be realized
