2. Slide 2 The solution for this timing difference is to record adjusting entries at the end of the period to get the amounts reported as revenues and expenses up to date. Accounting systems are designed to record most recurring daily transactions, particularly any involving cash. The problem is that cash is not always received or paid in the period when the revenue is earned or when the expense is incurred. Reasons for Adjustments

3. Slide 3 Types of Adjustments Unearned Revenues Previously recorded liabilities that were created when cash was received in advance, and that must be adjusted for the amount of revenue actually earned during the period. Accrued Revenues Revenues that were earned but not recorded because cash was received after the services were performed or goods were delivered. Prepaid Expenses Previously recorded assets that must be adjusted for the amount of expense actually incurred during the period through the use of the asset. Accrued Expenses Expenses that were incurred but were not recorded because cash was paid after the goods or services were used.

12. Slide 12 The adjusted trial balance is a list of all accounts and their adjusted balances to check on the equality of recorded debits and credits.

13. Slide 13 Revenue minus expenses yields net income on the Income Statement. Net income, withdrawals by the owner, and any additional contributions made by the owner during the period affect the balance in the owner’s capital account on the Statement of Owner’s Equity. The owner’s capital account is a component of the Balance Sheet. Relationships among Financial Statements Thus, if a number on the income statement changes or is in error, it will impact the other statements.

14. Slide 14 Relationships among Financial Statements Temporary accounts accumulate balances for a period, but start with a zero balance at the beginning of the next period. Revenues Expenses Drawing Temporary Accounts Permanent Accounts Assets Liabilities Equity Permanent accounts retain their balances from the end of one period to the beginning of the next.
