9 9 Basic Accounting Equation Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity Economic resources Economic obligations Net assets

10 10 Liquidity The term liquidity is used to describe how quickly an asset can be converted into cash or a liability paid.

11 11 Financial Flexibility Financial flexibility refers to the ability of a company to use its financial resources to adapt to change.

12 12 Operating Capability Operating capability refers to the ability of a company to maintain a given physical level of operations.

13 13 Three-Stage Process for Disclosing Information on the Balance Sheet 1. Identification of what items meet the definition of the elements. 2. Measurement (valuation) of the elements. 3. Reporting (classification) of the elements.

14 14 Elements of the Balance Sheet — Assets Assets are probable future economic benefits obtained or controlled by a company as a result of past transactions or events.

15 15 1.The resource must be able to contribute directly or indirectly to the company’s future net cash inflows. 2.The company must be able to obtain the future benefit and control others’ access to it. 3.The transaction or event giving the company the right to or control over the benefit must have occurred. Elements of the Balance Sheet -- Assets

16 16 Assets may be natural or man- made, tangible or intangible, and exchangeable or useful only in the company’s activities. Elements of the Balance Sheet -- Assets Simply, assets have future value.

17 17 Liabilities are probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations...L Elements of the Balance Sheet -- Liabilities

18 18 Liabilities are probable future sacrifices of economic benefits arising from present obligations...L … of a company to transfer assets or provide services to other entities in the future as a result of past transactions or events. Elements of the Balance Sheet -- Liabilities

19 19 Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity Equity is residual interest in the assets of a company that remain after deducting liabilities. Elements of the Balance Sheet – Stockholders’ equity

20 20 Measurement of the Elements of the Balance Sheet Historical Cost Current Cost Current Market Value Net Realizable Value Present Value

21 21 The historical cost of an asset is the exchange price in the transaction in which the asset was acquired. The current cost of an asset is the amount of cash (or equivalent) that would be required on the date of the balance sheet to obtain the same asset. The current market value of an asset is the amount of cash (or equivalent) that could be obtained on the date of the balance sheet by selling the asset in an orderly liquidation. Measurement of the Elements of the Balance Sheet

22 22 The net realizable value of an asset is the amount of cash (or equivalent) into which the asset is expected to be converted in the ordinary operations of the company, less any expected conversion costs. The present value of an asset is the net amount of discounted expected cash inflows less the discounted expected cash outflows related to the asset. Measurement of the Elements of the Balance Sheet

23 23 Initially, the amount of cash received when an obligation was incurred (historical proceeds); subsequent to incurrence, the historical amount may be adjusted for amortization. The current proceeds is the amount of cash that would be obtained if the same obligation were incurred. The current market value of a liability is the amount of cash that would be required currently to eliminate the liability. Measurement of the Elements of the Balance Sheet-Liabilities

24 24 The net realizable value of a liability is the amount of cash expected to be paid to eliminate the liability in due course of business. The present value of future cash outflows to eliminate the liability in due course of business. Measurement of the Elements of the Balance Sheet-Liabilities

25 25 Limitations of the Balance Sheet  Use of historical cost to value assets and liabilities does not help assess the likely amounts of future cash flows.  “Human resources” such as high-quality management or highly motivated workers are not included as assets.  Many of the amounts that a company reports are based on estimates.  In periods of inflation, the amounts listed do not show the “purchasing power” of assets and liabilities.

26 26 Current Assets Current assets are cash and other assets that are expected to be converted into cash, sold, or consumed within one year or the normal operating cycle, whichever is longer.

27 27 Operating Cycle An operating cycle is the average time taken by a company to spend cash for inventory,...

31 31 Current Assets Cash includes cash on hand and readily available in checking and savings accounts. Cash equivalents are risk-free securities, such as money market funds and treasury bills that will mature in three months or less from the date acquired by the holder.

32 32 Temporary investments in marketable securities include debt and equity securities that are classified as “trading securities” and “available-for-sale securities.” Current Assets

33 33 Receivables include accounts receivable and notes receivable with short-term maturity dates. They are listed at their estimated collectible amounts (net realizable values). Inventories include goods held for resale in the normal course of business plus, in the case of a manufacturing company, raw materials and goods in process. Prepaid items include insurance, rent, office supplies and taxes that will not be converted into cash but will be consumed. Current Assets

34 34 Current Liabilities Current liabilities are those obligations whose liquidation is expected to require the use of existing current assets, or the creation of other current liabilities.

35 35 1.Obligations for items that have entered into the operating cycle (accounts payable and salaries payable). 2.Advance collections for the future delivery of goods or performances of service (unearned rent and unearned ticket sales). 3.Other obligations that will be paid within one year or the operating cycle (estimated liabilities for short-term product warranties). Current Liabilities

36 36 A.Definition: Obligations that are reasonably expected to be liquidated through the use of current assets or the creation of other current liabilities. B.Items are usually presented in the order in which they will be paid. C.Interim debt. Obligations due to be paid during next year may be excluded from the current liability section if the item is expected to be refinanced through long-term debt, or the item will be paid out of noncurrent assets. Current Liabilities

37 37 D.Valuation is at the maturity value. E.Examples 1)Trade payables from the purchase of goods for resale 2)Short-term notes payable 3)Current maturities of long-term liabilities 4)Unearned revenues. Collections received in advance for the delivery of goods or the performance of services like unearned legal fees, prepaid rent income and prepaid subscriptions. Current Liabilities

40 40 Long-Term Investments Investment items that management expects to hold for more than one year or the operating cycle, whichever is longer, are classified as long-term (noncurrent) investments.

41 41 The company expects the market value of the investment to increase. The company wishes to receive income from interest or dividends. The company may desire to exercise control over another company or a supplier. The company may acquire property, plant, or equipment for future expansion. A company makes investments for a variety of reasons. Long-Term Investments

42 42 Property, plant, and equipment includes the tangible assets used in the firm’s operations. Also called fixed assets Plant Assets

43 43 Plant Assets  Land  Buildings  Equipment  Furniture  Natural Resources

44 44 Intangible Assets Intangible assets are those noncurrent economic resources that are used in the operations of the business but have no physical existence. Patents Copyrights Franchises

45 45 Intangible Assets Intangible assets are those noncurrent economic resources that are used in the operations of the business but have no physical existence. Trademarks ® a registered trademark Computer software costs Goodwill

46 46 Other Assets The Other Assets section occasionally is used to report miscellaneous assets that may not be readily classified within one of the previous sections. Sometimes referred to as “deferred charges”

47 47 Intangible Assets A company may have three categories of intangible assets: 1.Intangible assets with finite useful lives. 2.Intangible assets with indefinite lives. 3.Goodwill.

48 48 Long-Term Liabilities Long-term liabilities are those obligations that are not expected to require the use of current assets or not expected to create current liabilities within one year or the normal operating cycle (if longer than a year).

49 49 Other Liabilities Deferred tax liabilities and obligations of a component of the company that is being discontinued are examples of items that might be included as other liabilities.

50 50  Reporting assets according to their type or expected function in the central operations or other activities of the company.  Reporting as separate items assets and liabilities that affect the financial flexibility of the company differently.  Reporting assets and liabilities according to measurement method used to value the items. FASB suggested guidelines for developing homogeneous classes of assets and liabilities. Conceptual Guidelines

51 51 Stockholders’ Equity Stockholders’ equity is the residual interest of the stockholders in the assets of the corporation. A sole proprietorship is a single-owner company.

52 52 Stockholders’ Equity Stockholders’ equity is the residual interest of the stockholders in the assets of the corporation. A partnership involves two or more persons who have agreed to combine their capital and efforts in the operations of a company.

Accumulated other comprehensive income might include four items: Stockholders’ Equity

61 61 Stockholders’ Equity A company is required to report its total comprehensive income for the accounting period.

62 62 If a corporation has more than one item of other comprehensive income, it may report the amount of each item in stockholders’ equity. Stockholders’ Equity

63 63 Or, it may report the total amount of accumulated other comprehensive income for all the items in stockholders’ equity. This approach requires a note to the statements. Stockholders’ Equity

64 64 Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity A corporation must disclose the changes in its stockholders’ equity account when issuing financial statements. This statement should show investments by and distributions to owners during the period, among other items.

65 65 FASB Statement of Concepts No. 6 defined investments by owners and distributions to owners, as follows:  Investments by owners are increases in the equity of a company resulting from transfers of something valuable to the company from other entities in order to obtain or increase ownership interests.  Distributions to owners are decreases in the equity of a company caused by transferring assets, rendering services, or incurring liabilities to owners.

67 67 Summary of Accounting Policies A selection from existing acceptable alternatives. Principles and methods peculiar to the industry in which the company operates. Unusual or innovative applications of GAAP. APB Opinion No. 22 requires that a company include a description of all significant accounting policies as an integral part of its financial statements. In particular, when these principles and methods involve--

68 68 FASB Statement No. 107 requires a company to disclose the fair value of all its financial instruments, whether recognized or not on its balance sheet. The Statement also requires a company to disclose all significant concentrations of credit risk due to its financial instruments. A company typically makes these disclosures in the notes to its financial statements. Derivative Financial Instruments

69 69 Derivative Financial Instruments FASB Statement No. 133 requires a company to recognize all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. These instruments should be measured at fair value. Fair value is the amount at which the instrument could be purchased or sold in a current transaction between willing parties.

70 70 1. The type of derivative instruments it holds. 2. Its objectives in holding the instruments. 3. Its strategies for achieving these objectives. 1.

73 73 SEC Disclosures The Securities and Exchange Commission has the legal authority to prescribe accounting principles and reporting practices for all regulated companies. A regulated company must file a Form 10-K annual report with the SEC within 90 days of its fiscal year-end. This report must be filed electronically according to the EDGAR requirements. ContinuedContinued

74 74 The SEC requires comparative balance sheets for two years and comparative income statements and statements of cash flows for three years. The SEC requires specific disclosures of important accounting information for a five-year period. These include net sales or operating revenues, income (loss) from continuing operations, and related earnings per share, total assets, long-term obligations and redeemable stock, and cash dividends declared per share. SEC Disclosures

75 75 Management must include a discussion and analysis of the company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of operations. SEC Integrated Disclosures
