  15. 0:44in this uh
  16. 0:46title
  17. 0:47right we are going to learn how to
  18. 0:48record and report
  19. 0:52uh
  20. 0:52things that happen
  21. 0:54okay um which we call
  22. 0:57transactions
  23. 0:58transactions are basically
  24. 1:00economic
  25. 1:01activities what do we mean by economic
  26. 1:03activities we mean
  27. 1:06things that happen
  28. 1:07in the organization that involve
  29. 1:10money
  30. 1:11meaning dollars and cents right because
  31. 1:15if things uh happen the events happen
  32. 1:18and uh
  33. 1:20they do not involve dollars and cents or
  34. 1:24they do involve dollars and cents but we
  35. 1:27don't know how much to record then we
  36. 1:30are not
  37. 1:36those business transactions so we want
  38. 1:38to learn how to do it
  39. 1:40right now
  40. 1:42uh the way that we are
  41. 1:45going to record it
  42. 1:46is called the accrual accounting
  43. 1:52method
  44. 1:53okay there is another way uh but we are
  45. 1:56not gonna use that way but i'll
  46. 1:58introduce it to you
  47. 1:59uh at some point later on but we're
  48. 2:02gonna concentrate on this thing which we
  49. 2:03call accrual accounting and
  50. 2:06lastly
  51. 2:08we are focusing
  52. 2:10here
  53. 2:11on the financial position so this means
  54. 2:14that
  55. 2:15we want to describe what is going on in
  56. 2:19the organization at one particular point
  57. 2:22of time so
  58. 2:24at that moment
  59. 2:28what is the situation so we call it the
  60. 2:30financial position right
  61. 2:36so uh what we'll do
  62. 2:38for starters and this is the usual thing
  63. 2:41that we're going to do
  64. 2:42we're going to link the topic to the
  65. 2:45unit learning outcomes
  66. 2:47right so after successfully completing
  67. 2:50uh topic two part one which is the one
  68. 2:53today
  69. 2:54you should be able to first of all
  70. 2:57discuss
  71. 2:58and evaluate the role that financial
  72. 3:00information plays
  73. 3:01in practice within an environment of
  74. 3:04business decision making which is
  75. 3:07the first
  76. 3:08unit learning outcome
  77. 3:12but in addition to that
  78. 3:14we are going to apply accounting tools
  79. 3:17to prepare financial reports
  80. 3:20for both external and internal business
  81. 3:23use so this one here the uo number two
  82. 3:26is the additional
  83. 3:29unit learning outcome
  84. 3:31which we will introduce
  85. 3:33from this
  86. 3:35topic
  87. 3:36onwards
  88. 3:37okay
  89. 3:41in terms of the specific things
  90. 3:44that we want to be able to do for this
  91. 3:47topic
  92. 3:48so after uh studying topic two part one
  93. 3:52you should be able to first of all
  94. 3:55um
  95. 3:56describe the characteristics of business
  96. 3:59transactions
  97. 4:01um so
  98. 4:02what makes
  99. 4:04a business transaction we need to find
  100. 4:06out about this business transactions
  101. 4:08first before we can even record the
  102. 4:10thing right
  103. 4:11um
  104. 4:13next
  105. 4:14is to differentiate
  106. 4:16between a business transaction
  107. 4:19the one that we can record
  108. 4:22a personal transaction which we are not
  109. 4:25going to record in the
  110. 4:29business accounts
  111. 4:32and
  112. 4:33a business event
  113. 4:35which is something related to the
  114. 4:38business but for some reason
  115. 4:40we are still not able to record it
  116. 4:44in the business account so the one that
  117. 4:47we can actually
  118. 4:49record
  119. 4:50would be the business
  120. 4:53transaction right it has got to do
  121. 4:56something with with business and it has
  122. 4:58got to be a transaction
  123. 5:01okay yeah so we will learn what makes
  124. 5:04the difference between these three
  125. 5:05things
  126. 5:07and
  127. 5:07the next uh thing that we want to be
  128. 5:09able to do is to explain
  129. 5:11the accounting equation and the double
  130. 5:14entry system of
  131. 5:15recording
  132. 5:17so
  133. 5:18we introduce this thing
  134. 5:21called the accounting equation
  135. 5:24and
  136. 5:25we get introduced also to the idea of
  137. 5:28this thing called double entry system of
  138. 5:30recording
  139. 5:32um
  140. 5:33yeah okay
  141. 5:34the next one
  142. 5:36is to identify
  143. 5:38the impact of business transactions on
  144. 5:40the accounting equation so um
  145. 5:43what this actually means is that when
  146. 5:45you have business transactions uh it is
  147. 5:49going to have
  148. 5:50an effect on
  149. 5:52the accounting equation so we'll learn
  150. 5:55how
  151. 5:56these
  152. 5:57transactions
  153. 5:59affect the accounting equation
  154. 6:04some other
  155. 6:05objectives we
  156. 6:07learn how to prepare an accounting
  157. 6:09worksheet
  158. 6:11and
  159. 6:12a statement of financial position so
  160. 6:14this is the first statement
  161. 6:17that we're going to learn how to do
  162. 6:20right
  163. 6:22the next one is to
  164. 6:23identify the financial reporting
  165. 6:26obligations of
  166. 6:28an entity
  167. 6:29in other words
  168. 6:30if you've got an organization which
  169. 6:32sometimes you call it an entity
  170. 6:34what do they actually uh need to
  171. 6:38do for reporting they've got they've got
  172. 6:40to prepare reports what are their
  173. 6:43obligations what are their
  174. 6:44responsibilities to do this reporting
  175. 6:46okay the next objective is to explain
  176. 6:50the nature and
  177. 6:54purpose of the statement of financial
  178. 6:57position so we learn how to prepare it
  179. 7:00and we want to know a little bit more
  180. 7:02what why do we
  181. 7:04prepare it what use
  182. 7:13okay the next thing is to apply the
  183. 7:16asset definition criteria we learned
  184. 7:19about assets
  185. 7:21last week we want to learn a little bit
  186. 7:23more about
  187. 7:24this
  188. 7:25asset and the same thing with
  189. 7:27liabilities as well
  190. 7:30and then we will discuss the definition
  191. 7:32and nature of
  192. 7:34equity
  193. 7:35remember
  194. 7:37uh in
  195. 7:38last week's session
  196. 7:40we say that the things that that get
  197. 7:42recorded in the statement of financial
  198. 7:44position are the asset items the
  199. 7:47liability items and the equity items
  200. 7:52because the other two
  201. 7:55the income items and the expenses items
  202. 7:57they are not recorded in the statement
  203. 8:00of financial position in fact they are
  204. 8:03recorded in the statement of
  205. 8:04comprehensive income which we will look
  206. 8:06at
  207. 8:07later okay
  208. 8:10we will also describe the format
  209. 8:12and the presentation of the statement of
  210. 8:15financial position in other words how do
  211. 8:17we
  212. 8:18um
  213. 8:20do it
  214. 8:22okay
  215. 8:23how do we how do we actually prepare the
  216. 8:24statement stigma financial position the
  217. 8:26next objective
  218. 8:28is to describe the presentation and
  219. 8:30disclosure requirements for the elements
  220. 8:34in the statement of financial position
  221. 8:36so
  222. 8:37when we say elements in the statement of
  223. 8:39financial position what are we talking
  224. 8:41about we are talking about the assets
  225. 8:44the liabilities and the equity items
  226. 8:47right
  227. 8:49an additional
  228. 8:52objective uh is to explain
  229. 8:55the accounting conventions and doctrines
  230. 8:59governing the recording of transactions
  231. 9:01in accounting practice
  232. 9:03so uh i put this in here because i think
  233. 9:07it is important
  234. 9:09um when we are
  235. 9:11studying how to do accounts
  236. 9:13that we are knowledgeable about certain
  237. 9:16uh principles certain
  238. 9:18things that we do normally right
  239. 9:21which we call
  240. 9:22uh conventions or doctrines
  241. 9:25that guide us on how we actually record
  242. 9:28those transactions in the accounts
  243. 9:32and finally we look at
  244. 9:37the limitations of the statement of
  245. 9:39financial position something that we
  246. 9:41need to be aware of
  247. 9:43uh when we actually do have a statement
  248. 9:45of
  249. 9:46financial position we prepare the
  250. 9:47statement of financial
  251. 9:48position um
  252. 9:51but
  253. 9:53it may not tell us
  254. 9:56certain things
  255. 9:58um
  256. 9:59yeah so so there's there are some
  257. 10:00limitations
  258. 10:02and the way that the things in the
  259. 10:05statement of financial position are
  260. 10:08uh being prepared okay there are also
  261. 10:11some limitations on it
  262. 10:13um so
  263. 10:15i would like us to be aware of these
  264. 10:18things as well
  265. 10:22so those are the learning objectives
  266. 10:25in this
  267. 10:26topic two
  268. 10:27part one
  269. 10:30so first of all
  270. 10:33we go back
  271. 10:34and talk about
  272. 10:37business transactions what
  273. 10:40is it actually
  274. 10:43business transactions
  275. 10:45are events
  276. 10:48that affect the assets liabilities and
  277. 10:50equity items
  278. 10:52in the entity
  279. 10:54okay so if you have a business
  280. 10:56transaction somehow
  281. 10:58it is supposed to
  282. 11:00have an effect on
  283. 11:02one or more of these three items right
  284. 11:07assets
  285. 11:09and or liabilities and or equity items
  286. 11:13okay yeah
  287. 11:15and
  288. 11:17when you have a business transaction and
  289. 11:19you want to record it
  290. 11:20okay
  291. 11:21a business transaction is recorded we're
  292. 11:24going to record it in the accounts
  293. 11:27when it can be
  294. 11:29reliably measured
  295. 11:32in monetary or in other words uh dollar
  296. 11:36value terms
  297. 11:38okay so um
  298. 11:41if you
  299. 11:42are able to
  300. 11:44find out how much
  301. 11:46is that business transaction
  302. 11:49and you're quite sure that that is the
  303. 11:51amount then
  304. 11:53you can record it
  305. 11:55in the accounts
  306. 11:56now
  307. 11:57for student purposes right
  308. 11:59for our purposes
  309. 12:01um
  310. 12:04by and large the transactions will be
  311. 12:05given to you the amounts will be given
  312. 12:07to you so all you need to do is to look
  313. 12:10at the question the amounts are there
  314. 12:11and we record it but in real life
  315. 12:16you need to find out the amount right so
  316. 12:19sometimes
  317. 12:22you can find out the amount most of the
  318. 12:24times you can find the amount then you
  319. 12:25can record it in the accounts but
  320. 12:27sometimes
  321. 12:32amount so you have to choose the more
  322. 12:36appropriate amount
  323. 12:38this is when
  324. 12:40it's in real life all right so that's
  325. 12:42why they actually uh mention it over
  326. 12:44here when you can reliably measure it
  327. 12:47right now
  328. 12:49under the accounting entity concept
  329. 12:52every
  330. 12:54business entity or organization if you
  331. 12:56like
  332. 13:02separate from
  333. 13:07um
  334. 13:08what this simply means is that
  335. 13:11if you
  336. 13:13have a business right
  337. 13:15uh you must keep the things
  338. 13:20separate from
  339. 13:22the things which
  340. 13:28personal
  341. 13:30owners
  342. 13:31um
  343. 13:33transactions
  344. 13:35recorded in
  345. 13:36the business
  346. 13:38accounts right so we keep the business
  347. 13:40transactions separate
  348. 13:54so um
  349. 14:01[Music]
  350. 14:02contribution of capital by the owners
  351. 14:04remember the owners and the
  352. 14:08business are separate things
  353. 14:15contribute some money
  354. 14:40yes it is the business that's actually
  355. 14:42paying the wages right not the owner
  356. 14:46okay so payment of wages in this sense
  357. 14:49is
  358. 14:53of bank interest when
  359. 14:55the business
  360. 15:18okay back on
  361. 15:20um receipt of bank interest
  362. 15:23the business bank interest where it is a
  363. 15:26business transaction
  364. 15:33yeah it's a bit of a lagging uh yeah a
  365. 15:36little bit of lagging okay but it it it
  366. 15:39comes
  367. 15:40on again so
  368. 15:42yeah
  369. 15:43okay yeah
  370. 15:46it's recorded so
  371. 15:48hopefully that's fine
  372. 15:50okay um
  373. 15:52payment of gst and other taxes now it is
  374. 15:55the business that actually pays this
  375. 15:57gst and other taxes
  376. 15:59gst
  377. 16:00stands for goods and services tax
  378. 16:03okay um
  379. 16:04yeah
  380. 16:06that's a business transaction as long as
  381. 16:08it is the business taxes right now
  382. 16:12if the business pays uh accounts payable
  383. 16:15this thing accounts payable as amounts
  384. 16:17owing to the suppliers
  385. 16:20okay then it is a business transaction
  386. 16:23okay
  387. 16:25uh depreciating
  388. 16:27office equipment
  389. 16:30um
  390. 16:30the business has got some office
  391. 16:32equipment like tables and chairs
  392. 16:35computers
  393. 16:36and
  394. 16:38the longer they are being used their
  395. 16:40value actually decreases because they
  396. 16:41get older they're used they're not as
  397. 16:43effective as before so
  398. 16:46the process of reducing the value is
  399. 16:48called depreciation so if you are going
  400. 16:51to depreciate this office equipment
  401. 16:53because this office equipment belongs to
  402. 16:55the business then it is a business
  403. 16:58transaction
  404. 16:59sale of goods to customer now
  405. 17:03who sells goods to customers is it the
  406. 17:06business selling the goods to the
  407. 17:07customer or is it the owner selling the
  408. 17:09goods to the customer
  409. 17:11it is
  410. 17:13the business selling the goods to the
  411. 17:15customer all right we are not talking
  412. 17:17about the owner here so that's why it is
  413. 17:19a business transaction
  414. 17:21okay
  415. 17:22uh if the business provides services to
  416. 17:24the client
  417. 17:26or customer if you like
  418. 17:28then
  419. 17:29we can record it because it is a
  420. 17:30business transaction there is sort of a
  421. 17:33sale going on right okay so these are
  422. 17:36examples
  423. 17:37of business transactions it is not 100
  424. 17:41complete list
  425. 17:42i'm just giving you some examples
  426. 17:47okay some more uh purchasing accounting
  427. 17:50software so if the business
  428. 17:52bought some software maybe it's an
  429. 17:55accounting software maybe it's some
  430. 17:56other types of computer software right
  431. 17:59but for business use then it's a
  432. 18:01business transaction
  433. 18:03the next one
  434. 18:05um withdrawal of capital
  435. 18:08okay so this one what does it mean
  436. 18:11the owner
  437. 18:14takes back some of the capital
  438. 18:17that he has previously put into the
  439. 18:19business so it's the opposite of
  440. 18:21contribution of capital
  441. 18:23right it's opposite of this one here
  442. 18:26contribution of capital you put in the
  443. 18:28owner puts in the money into the
  444. 18:30business
  445. 18:31the uh opposite
  446. 18:33which is withdrawal of capital
  447. 18:35the owner takes out some money which was
  448. 18:37previously put into the business okay
  449. 18:40yeah
  450. 18:40uh so as far as the business is
  451. 18:42concerned they are paying back some of
  452. 18:45the capital back to the owner so it is a
  453. 18:48business transaction
  454. 18:50repayment of loan to the bank
  455. 18:54if it is a
  456. 18:55business loan
  457. 18:57right
  458. 18:58the business needs to pay back that loan
  459. 19:00to the bank it is a business transaction
  460. 19:05cash purchases of office supplies right
  461. 19:08these office supplies
  462. 19:11belong to the business
  463. 19:13then they are going to
  464. 19:14buy it
  465. 19:16okay then it is a business transaction
  466. 19:19payment uh of advertising maybe the
  467. 19:21business wants to do some advertising
  468. 19:23they got to pay for it right so it is
  469. 19:27a business transaction so these are
  470. 19:29these are
  471. 19:35now how about personal transactions
  472. 19:41personal transactions of the owners or
  473. 19:43the partners if it is a partnership or
  474. 19:46the shareholders if it is a company now
  475. 19:49these are personal transactions
  476. 19:52right they've got nothing to do with the
  477. 19:54business
  478. 19:54or the organization
  479. 19:57all right
  480. 19:58so
  481. 19:58what should we do with personal
  482. 20:00transactions personal transactions are
  483. 20:01unrelated to the operation of the
  484. 20:05business so we don't record it
  485. 20:08except for
  486. 20:10this is the exception huh
  487. 20:12except for drawings of capital and
  488. 20:16contributions of capital
  489. 20:18now um
  490. 20:22if the owner
  491. 20:23contributes money to the business
  492. 20:27right so it affects the owner because
  493. 20:28the owner is paying some money so the
  494. 20:30personal money of the owner is less
  495. 20:33but the
  496. 20:34business money gets more right okay
  497. 20:48if it is a drawing
  498. 20:51right if it's a drawing of capital it's
  499. 20:53the opposite that means um
  500. 20:56the owners
  501. 20:58uh take back some of the capital from
  502. 21:00the business so
  503. 21:01from the point of view of the owner the
  504. 21:04owner gets
  505. 21:05more money now
  506. 21:07all right but from the business point of
  507. 21:08view the business has got less money
  508. 21:10because the capital decreases right so
  509. 21:12we record that part the decrease in the
  510. 21:16capital
  511. 21:27let's look at business events
  512. 21:29okay
  513. 21:31these are
  514. 21:36but they are not recorded
  515. 21:39as business
  516. 21:44liabilities and equity items in an
  517. 21:47entity okay i give you a
  518. 21:50an example of a business event
  519. 21:53that does not actually affect
  520. 21:56any asset or liability items or equity
  521. 21:58items okay
  522. 22:01things happen
  523. 22:03um
  524. 22:05you know
  525. 22:06from the morning time
  526. 22:08until the late afternoon time so these
  527. 22:10are business hours right so
  528. 22:12if you're doing
  529. 22:14things like selling to customer or
  530. 22:16buying some things from the supplier
  531. 22:19okay so these are
  532. 22:22business transactions but
  533. 22:24there are other things that go on
  534. 22:27uh in the organization for example
  535. 22:30um
  536. 22:32if
  537. 22:34they happen to interview
  538. 22:36a potential worker
  539. 22:38right is this something to do with the
  540. 22:41business yes all right not because
  541. 22:43they're interviewing
  542. 22:44uh
  543. 22:46a a potential employee right
  544. 22:49it has got
  545. 22:51related to is related to something you
  546. 22:54know that will normally happen as part
  547. 22:56of the business activities
  548. 22:58but is it recorded it is not recorded
  549. 23:01because no cash is flowing out no cash
  550. 23:04is coming in
  551. 23:06we just know that it happens but
  552. 23:08it's not a business transaction it is
  553. 23:11actually a business event
  554. 23:14right so um
  555. 23:17if there are things that happen in the
  556. 23:18business and you cannot put a dollar
  557. 23:20amount to it
  558. 23:22okay or
  559. 23:25you know for some other reason it
  560. 23:26doesn't affect the effort uh the assets
  561. 23:28liabilities and equity items
  562. 23:30in an entity then
  563. 23:32it's an event
  564. 23:34and it's not uh a transaction so it
  565. 23:37doesn't get recorded in the accounts
  566. 23:41the next thing that we will
  567. 23:44uh look at
  568. 23:45is this thing called the accounting
  569. 23:48equation all right so i give you the
  570. 23:51equation first and then i explain why it
  571. 23:53is like that
  572. 23:55yeah
  573. 23:56the equation is
  574. 23:57assets equals to liabilities plus equity
  575. 24:02right
  576. 24:03uh it in short
  577. 24:05uh a for assets equals to l for
  578. 24:08liabilities plus e for equity
  579. 24:11right
  580. 24:12so
  581. 24:14uh assets uh
  582. 24:18the things that
  583. 24:21is owned or at least it's controlled
  584. 24:25by the entity
  585. 24:28or the organization
  586. 24:30and the total value of those things
  587. 24:34that's the value of the assets the total
  588. 24:36value of the asset okay
  589. 24:38liabilities
  590. 24:40they are external sources of funds in
  591. 24:43other words
  592. 24:44the amount that the organization owes to
  593. 24:48outsiders
  594. 24:51the amount that the organization
  595. 24:53is owing to outsiders right external
  596. 24:57parties so these are liabilities what is
  597. 25:00the
  598. 25:01business owing money to outsiders anyway
  599. 25:03give you some classic examples the
  600. 25:05business bought some things from the
  601. 25:07supplier on credit there's a credit
  602. 25:09transaction they haven't
  603. 25:11paid to them yet so it is a liability
  604. 25:14all right another classic example
  605. 25:17um
  606. 25:18the business
  607. 25:20um
  608. 25:22got a bank loan
  609. 25:24right so the business owes money to the
  610. 25:26bank
  611. 25:27right now their business has not yet
  612. 25:29paid to the bank so it is a liability so
  613. 25:33these are
  614. 25:34money that is owing to outsiders
  615. 25:38equity are internal sources of funds
  616. 25:40from the owners so in other words
  617. 25:43uh the amount of contribution
  618. 25:46that is from the owners
  619. 25:48right now not
  620. 25:51to the outsiders
  621. 25:52okay
  622. 25:54so uh the rational of the accounting
  623. 25:57equation is
  624. 25:59the assets whatever that the business
  625. 26:01has got which are the assets you total
  626. 26:03up the value of what the business has
  627. 26:06got
  628. 26:07the total is only one figure right
  629. 26:10a total it's only one figure isn't it
  630. 26:13the total value of all the assets you're
  631. 26:15going to end up with one figure
  632. 26:18will be equal to
  633. 26:21uh the total value that the basis is
  634. 26:25owing
  635. 26:26to outsiders which we call lenders
  636. 26:30as well as
  637. 26:32what the business
  638. 26:34can actually
  639. 26:35pay back to the owners
  640. 26:39all right so if you think about it
  641. 26:43hopefully it starts to make sense but it
  642. 26:45only makes sense
  643. 26:47if you are aware or very aware
  644. 26:50that uh the business and the owners are
  645. 26:55separate things okay so
  646. 26:58let me uh explain it in another way
  647. 27:01whatever that the business has got must
  648. 27:04have come from somewhere right
  649. 27:06it doesn't appear magically whatever the
  650. 27:09business has got which are asset must
  651. 27:11either
  652. 27:12come from the owner
  653. 27:14or
  654. 27:15if it doesn't come from the owner it
  655. 27:17must be funded by amount owing to the
  656. 27:20supplier
  657. 27:21right so that is why it is equal to the
  658. 27:24total value owing to outsiders plus
  659. 27:27whatever
  660. 27:29uh left over
  661. 27:30that can be distributed back to the
  662. 27:32owner if the business wishes to do so
  663. 27:37right
  664. 27:38but um
  665. 27:39typically
  666. 27:42a normal functioning
  667. 27:45business
  668. 27:46will not
  669. 27:47pay back all the money to the owner
  670. 27:49because they want to keep some of the
  671. 27:50money uh in the business themselves
  672. 27:53because they want to
  673. 27:55uh use it for normal business operations
  674. 27:58and they may also want to expand so they
  675. 28:01might pay back some of the money to the
  676. 28:02owner in terms of profits right but
  677. 28:05normally they don't pay all
  678. 28:07right
  679. 28:08unless
  680. 28:10the only time when they pay back
  681. 28:11everything back to the owner
  682. 28:13is you know when
  683. 28:15it's when the business is closing
  684. 28:18when the business closes there's not
  685. 28:19going to be any more organization
  686. 28:21everything goes back to the owner
  687. 28:24all right
  688. 28:25okay but normally
  689. 28:28uh
  690. 28:29we
  691. 28:30hope that the business doesn't close so
  692. 28:31sooner
  693. 28:33okay
  694. 28:34so let's have uh an example over here
  695. 28:38okay
  696. 28:39you got
  697. 28:40valerie's versus
  698. 28:43um
  699. 28:45this is the name of the business okay
  700. 28:48this is not
  701. 28:50the name of the owner so valerie's
  702. 28:52versus
  703. 28:54needs 350 000 of assets to do business
  704. 28:57right
  705. 28:58okay now valerie now this one here
  706. 29:01valerie is the name of the owner
  707. 29:05okay so do not get confused uh valerie's
  708. 29:08buses is the business valerie is the
  709. 29:10owner there are two different things
  710. 29:13valerie only has 200 000 dollars to
  711. 29:15contribute as equity
  712. 29:18right
  713. 29:18so
  714. 29:19what happens the business needs 350 000
  715. 29:23valerie the owner has only got 200 000
  716. 29:25so what happened
  717. 29:27the business needs to borrow additional
  718. 29:29funds of 150 000 from a bank right
  719. 29:34okay and it will be a liability of the
  720. 29:37business
  721. 29:38right so for the business account
  722. 29:42um
  723. 29:43the total value of the assets okay it's
  724. 29:45got 350 000
  725. 29:46assuming that the loan was
  726. 29:48obtained right
  727. 29:50total 250 000
  728. 29:52of which uh
  729. 29:54uh the business knows that it's got to
  730. 29:56pay back 150 000 to the bank at some
  731. 29:59point in the future
  732. 30:02right
  733. 30:03and whatever that's left over at this
  734. 30:05point of time
  735. 30:08yeah it can be paid back
  736. 30:10to valerie the owner 200 000
  737. 30:14right so this is the effect
  738. 30:16of this situation or the accounting
  739. 30:19equation
  740. 30:23now uh let me introduce to you before we
  741. 30:26continue further
  742. 30:27uh let's be introduced to the concept of
  743. 30:31duality
  744. 30:33right so what does this mean
  745. 30:35the accounting equation must be kept in
  746. 30:38balance after a transaction is entered
  747. 30:42in other words the accounting equation
  748. 30:44which is asset
  749. 30:45equals to liability plus equity will
  750. 30:47always be the case after every
  751. 30:51transaction
  752. 30:52and
  753. 30:53we need to make sure
  754. 30:56that this is actually
  755. 30:58happening
  756. 30:59every time we enter a transaction
  757. 31:02into our
  758. 31:05our work later on okay we're going to
  759. 31:06use a worksheet
  760. 31:08okay and uh yeah
  761. 31:10so in order to keep this equation which
  762. 31:13is asset equals the liabilities plus
  763. 31:14equity in balance
  764. 31:17then a transaction must be recorded in
  765. 31:20at least two places correct or not if
  766. 31:22you record it only in one place then
  767. 31:24it's not balancing
  768. 31:27okay you must record at least two places
  769. 31:29for it to balance
  770. 31:31did i say at least two places yes
  771. 31:34sometimes it can affect more than two
  772. 31:36places it can be three it can be four
  773. 31:39but for our purposes
  774. 31:41most of the time it will affect two
  775. 31:43places we want to keep things as simple
  776. 31:45as possible but you do come across
  777. 31:48occasionally
  778. 31:50maybe more than more than two places all
  779. 31:53right but most of the time it's two
  780. 31:55places for our purposes
  781. 31:59okay um so let's have a look the concept
  782. 32:02of uh duality
  783. 32:05uh example here
  784. 32:07okay the purchase of a
  785. 32:09delivery truck
  786. 32:12via or using a loan that means uh the
  787. 32:14business is buying a truck
  788. 32:17so
  789. 32:19a truck
  790. 32:21becomes an asset to the business the
  791. 32:24truck is the actual thing that the
  792. 32:25business buying
  793. 32:26the category
  794. 32:28is
  795. 32:29asset okay
  796. 32:35at first there was no truck so now there
  797. 32:36is a truck
  798. 32:37right
  799. 32:38um
  800. 32:39now think about it where did the
  801. 32:42business get the money to buy the truck
  802. 32:45so in this case here they say it's from
  803. 32:48a loan
  804. 32:50a loan is money owing to the bank so
  805. 32:53you're creating
  806. 32:56an amount of money that is owing to the
  807. 32:58bank but the bank is external right so
  808. 33:01it is a liability
  809. 33:02it's not
  810. 33:04um
  811. 33:05an equity item okay so the liability
  812. 33:08which is called a loan
  813. 33:11increases
  814. 33:12and
  815. 33:13for this particular transaction it has
  816. 33:15got no effect on
  817. 33:18equity
  818. 33:19so
  819. 33:20asset increases liability increases by
  820. 33:22the same amount so can you imagine
  821. 33:25that both sides
  822. 33:27of the
  823. 33:28of the equation
  824. 33:30gets higher by the same amount so the
  825. 33:33total
  826. 33:34will be equal on both sides
  827. 33:38okay
  828. 33:40now we expand the account
  829. 34:19okay let me repeat
  830. 34:21okay remember we mentioned that um
  831. 34:25income
  832. 34:26and expenses they get recorded in the
  833. 34:28statement of comprehensive income right
  834. 34:30um
  835. 34:32but they also affect equity
  836. 34:34okay if you've got an income item it
  837. 34:37will increase equity if you're gonna
  838. 34:39expense item it will decrease equity but
  839. 34:41equity
  840. 34:42is recorded in the statement of
  841. 34:44financial position right
  842. 34:47correct
  843. 34:48um
  844. 34:49so
  845. 34:51um
  846. 34:52yeah if you look at the
  847. 34:55definition
  848. 34:56of income and expenses from topic one
  849. 34:59right
  850. 35:00if you've got income equity increases if
  851. 35:03you get expenses equity decreases so it
  852. 35:06does actually affect
  853. 35:08the statement of financial position as
  854. 35:10well
  855. 35:11in addition to the statement of
  856. 35:12comprehensive income okay
  857. 35:15so
  858. 35:16uh
  859. 35:17therefore
  860. 35:19profit or loss
  861. 35:21okay is added to or subtracted from the
  862. 35:24opening
  863. 35:26equity
  864. 35:27on the statement of financial position
  865. 35:30right so if you've got profit the equity
  866. 35:33will increase okay so if
  867. 35:36let's say for example here you've got
  868. 35:37assets equal to liability plus equity
  869. 35:39right so if
  870. 35:41you've got income items this
  871. 35:44income item will increase the equity
  872. 35:47okay and any expenses item would reduce
  873. 35:49the equity you can see reduce right
  874. 35:51because we've got the minus expenses so
  875. 35:52it will reduce the equity
  876. 35:54okay
  877. 35:55so profit is actually the income minus
  878. 35:58the expenses so hopefully if you've got
  879. 36:00income more than expenses you have a
  880. 36:02profit it will increase the equity
  881. 36:04but sometimes
  882. 36:05a business can make a loss so the
  883. 36:07expenses is more than the income
  884. 36:10so it will reduce the equity
  885. 36:16okay the next thing
  886. 36:18that we look at is um
  887. 36:21what we call transaction analysis it
  888. 36:24actually
  889. 36:25sounds
  890. 36:26more complicated than it really is i
  891. 36:29hope um
  892. 36:30[Music]
  893. 36:31it's it's not as complicated as it
  894. 36:33sounds in other words uh hopefully it's
  895. 36:35like that all right so what do we need
  896. 36:37to do
  897. 36:38read the transaction so for student
  898. 36:40purposes the transaction will be given
  899. 36:41to you so read it understand what's
  900. 36:44going on
  901. 36:45identify the nature of the transaction
  902. 36:47in other words you know try to
  903. 36:50figure out what is going on in the
  904. 36:52transaction
  905. 36:53given to you and then
  906. 36:56number three
  907. 36:57find out how that transaction which is
  908. 37:00described for you in the question is
  909. 37:03going to affect the accounting equation
  910. 37:06in terms of asset and or liabilities and
  911. 37:09or equity
  912. 37:11okay yeah
  913. 37:15so let's have an example
  914. 37:17we got example number one capital
  915. 37:19contribution okay so the owner
  916. 37:21contributes to twenty thousand
  917. 37:23dollars in cash to start a business so
  918. 37:28um
  919. 37:28you know what's going on roughly the
  920. 37:30owner
  921. 37:32puts has got some money the owner takes
  922. 37:3520 000 of his
  923. 37:38money and puts it into the business
  924. 37:41right so as far as the business is
  925. 37:42concerned the business has got 20 000.
  926. 37:46so this
  927. 37:47um
  928. 37:48the keywords here is cash
  929. 37:50okay because it says here the owner
  930. 37:52contributes uh cash so the business has
  931. 37:54got more cash now right cash increases
  932. 37:57by 20 000 but cashier
  933. 38:00is
  934. 38:01under asset category it is an asset
  935. 38:04right
  936. 38:05and then
  937. 38:07uh the owner increases the capital of
  938. 38:10the business so the capital
  939. 38:13uh which is under the
  940. 38:16category of equity
  941. 38:18increases so
  942. 38:20what is happening to the accounting
  943. 38:21equation you've got assets equals to
  944. 38:23liabilities plus equity cash increases
  945. 38:25by twenty thousand so assets increased
  946. 38:27by twenty thousand
  947. 38:30plus equals to liabilities no effect on
  948. 38:32liabilities
  949. 38:34plus the capital increases by 20 000
  950. 38:37capital is under the category of equity
  951. 38:39so
  952. 38:40uh both sides increase by 20 000 so the
  953. 38:43accounting equation is in balance it's
  954. 38:45balancing
  955. 38:46right
  956. 38:50next one
  957. 38:52uh there is a purchase of an asset using
  958. 38:55cash all right
  959. 38:56so
  960. 38:57the business purchases a new ipad for
  961. 39:00500 and pays by cash so
  962. 39:03uh they bought this uh electronic
  963. 39:05equipment okay uh using cash
  964. 39:08right
  965. 39:09so what happens to the cash of the
  966. 39:11business it drops by 500 right
  967. 39:15because they paid 500
  968. 39:17okay so cash decreases
  969. 39:20by 500 but remember cash is an asset so
  970. 39:23asset goes down by 500
  971. 39:26right okay and then
  972. 39:28you have got a new thing
  973. 39:30which is this thing a new ipad
  974. 39:34uh purchased right
  975. 39:36uh it belongs to the business the value
  976. 39:38is 500 so you got a new
  977. 39:40asset called
  978. 39:43the ipad it goes under the
  979. 39:46category we can call it office equipment
  980. 39:48because it is an equipment
  981. 39:50right and it's under the category of
  982. 39:52asset as well so if you've got any
  983. 39:53equipment it is under the category of
  984. 39:55assets so this one you look what
  985. 39:57happened huh
  986. 39:58the cash decreases by 500 so asset comes
  987. 40:02down by 500 and at the same time the
  988. 40:05value of this ipad which is office
  989. 40:07equipment goes up by 500 so asset goes
  990. 40:11up by 500
  991. 40:12so
  992. 40:13in this transaction it only affects the
  993. 40:16assets but assets drops by 500 and goes
  994. 40:18up by 500
  995. 40:20so it's two places right
  996. 40:22okay and then on the right side the
  997. 40:24liability and equity there's no effect
  998. 40:28in this particular equation but it is
  999. 40:30balancing right
  1000. 40:32okay it's balancing
  1001. 40:36okay let's have a look at example three
  1002. 40:38so now there's uh the business sends a
  1003. 40:41sales invoice
  1004. 40:43um an invoice is actually a bill
  1005. 40:45it's sending a bill to the customer why
  1006. 40:47are we sending bill to the customer
  1007. 40:49for
  1008. 40:51providing tennis coaching services so
  1009. 40:53the amount is three thousand okay so
  1010. 40:56there's an amount over here
  1011. 40:57so
  1012. 40:59we've got a bill
  1013. 41:01when we send a bill it's either you're
  1014. 41:03doing a sale of something or you
  1015. 41:06provided some services to a customer
  1016. 41:08right
  1017. 41:09so the keywords are invoice and services
  1018. 41:13now has the customer paid or not
  1019. 41:17so let's say that the customer has not
  1020. 41:19yet paid okay so you do not get cash
  1021. 41:22immediately so what happens is that the
  1022. 41:24customer is owing money
  1023. 41:28to the business now
  1024. 41:29so
  1025. 41:30as far as the business is concerned this
  1026. 41:32is called accounts receivable right
  1027. 41:36sometimes it is known as debtors so the
  1028. 41:38amount that the customer owes
  1029. 41:40is three thousand so previously you
  1030. 41:42don't have accounts receivable now you
  1031. 41:44have right it increases by three
  1032. 41:46thousand accounts receivable by the way
  1033. 41:50is under the category of asset
  1034. 41:53all right
  1035. 41:54um
  1036. 41:55now you've got this other thing which is
  1037. 41:58actually sales but in here we call it
  1038. 42:00fees revenue you can do that
  1039. 42:02okay
  1040. 42:03the fees revenue increases by 3 000
  1041. 42:07and it is an income item right so
  1042. 42:11how do we
  1043. 42:13uh present it in
  1044. 42:15in accounting equation form
  1045. 42:17so accounts receivable which is under
  1046. 42:20the category of asset is 3000 it goes up
  1047. 42:22by 3 000.
  1048. 42:24this transaction has got no effect on
  1049. 42:26liabilities
  1050. 42:28okay income increases by 3 000 in the
  1051. 42:32form of coaching fees so it goes up and
  1052. 42:35income
  1053. 42:36eventually will contribute to equity so
  1054. 42:39both sides of the equation can you see
  1055. 42:41here
  1056. 42:42left side increases by 3000 and then on
  1057. 42:44the right side it increases by 3000 as
  1058. 42:46well so the equation is balancing
  1059. 42:49okay
  1060. 42:54right
  1061. 42:55so the next thing okay we've given you
  1062. 42:58some transactions uh for you to think
  1063. 43:00about the next thing
  1064. 43:02uh we're gonna introduce is called the
  1065. 43:05worksheet
  1066. 43:06for the accounting worksheet right the
  1067. 43:08keyword is worksheet
  1068. 43:10this uh worksheet summarizes uh the
  1069. 43:13duality that we were talking about
  1070. 43:15associated with each business
  1071. 43:17transaction
  1072. 43:19so
  1073. 43:20all
  1074. 43:21business transactions
  1075. 43:23can be entered into the worksheet
  1076. 43:25only business transactions are entered
  1077. 43:27into the worksheet if
  1078. 43:29for some reason
  1079. 43:32in the question
  1080. 43:33they gave you a business event
  1081. 43:37or they gave you a personal transaction
  1082. 43:40then do not record the personal
  1083. 43:43transaction or the business event in the
  1084. 43:46worksheet because then they are not
  1085. 43:48supposed to be
  1086. 43:50recorded in the worksheet only the
  1087. 43:51business transaction
  1088. 43:53okay yeah
  1089. 43:56the individual columns of the worksheet
  1090. 43:58are then total up and these totals will
  1091. 44:01be used to prepare the financial
  1092. 44:03statements so you see that uh happening
  1093. 44:06later on
  1094. 44:08okay
  1095. 44:10now um
  1096. 44:12remember we said that asset equals to
  1097. 44:14liability plus equity
  1098. 44:16okay so if we give you uh some
  1099. 44:18information and there's some other
  1100. 44:20information is missing from the equation
  1101. 44:22we can actually try to find out those
  1102. 44:25missing
  1103. 44:26numbers right
  1104. 44:28if you know that the left side must be
  1105. 44:30equal to the right side
  1106. 44:31okay so
  1107. 44:33here we are using the accounting
  1108. 44:35equation to solve for missing figures
  1109. 44:38so the current equation can also help us
  1110. 44:41solve for missing figures why
  1111. 44:43because the asset side which sometimes
  1112. 44:45we call it the left side
  1113. 44:48must always equal to the claims which is
  1114. 44:50the liability plus the equity side right
  1115. 44:53so
  1116. 44:55let's have an example
  1117. 44:56you got this uh organization kurdish
  1118. 44:59enterprise it has current assets of 34
  1119. 45:02000
  1120. 45:03current liabilities eight thousand
  1121. 45:05non-current liabilities of eighty
  1122. 45:06thousand and equity 160 000 what's the
  1123. 45:09amount of non-current assets okay
  1124. 45:13so
  1125. 45:14in this example
  1126. 45:16we begin to realize
  1127. 45:19that under the asset category we can
  1128. 45:21subdivide it into some further category
  1129. 45:24so in this case here
  1130. 45:27if it is an asset category you can have
  1131. 45:29this thing called current asset as well
  1132. 45:32as non-current asset
  1133. 45:34and then for the liability uh category
  1134. 45:38you can have current liabilities and
  1135. 45:40non-current liabilities we will talk
  1136. 45:42about
  1137. 45:44them in greater detail at a later time
  1138. 45:46but just for this moment
  1139. 45:49real
  1140. 45:53recurrent and not
  1141. 46:14okay in this case here
  1142. 46:15if you want to um
  1143. 46:19total up the
  1144. 46:21current assets and the non-current
  1145. 46:22assets
  1146. 46:24you will have
  1147. 46:26one figure total assets right
  1148. 46:29right the total assets so you have 34
  1149. 46:32000 which is current assets plus you
  1150. 46:34don't know how much is the non-current
  1151. 46:35asset
  1152. 46:36but you know that it's equal to the
  1153. 46:38total liabilities now in this case here
  1154. 46:41you have current liabilities 8 000 and
  1155. 46:43non-current liabilities of 80 000 so the
  1156. 46:45total liabilities is 80 000 right i'm
  1157. 46:48sorry 88 000 correct
  1158. 46:50right
  1159. 46:50plus the equity of 160 000 so
  1160. 46:53you simplify the equation 34 thousand
  1161. 46:55plus question mark equals two hundred
  1162. 46:56forty eight thousand so that thing uh
  1163. 46:58for the non-current assets will be
  1164. 47:00two hundred forty fourteen thousand so
  1165. 47:03what you are doing is to try to find out
  1166. 47:05the missing number
  1167. 47:08all right huh so if the question
  1168. 47:12has got some
  1169. 47:13uh give you some information and
  1170. 47:17you
  1171. 47:18need to find a missing number
  1172. 47:20you can use this account equation
  1173. 47:23right
  1174. 47:25okay
  1175. 47:26the next thing
  1176. 47:28will be financial reporting obligations
  1177. 47:32so as mentioned in topic one which is
  1178. 47:34last week
  1179. 47:35the entities financial report includes
  1180. 47:37the following four financial statements
  1181. 47:40number one the statement of financial
  1182. 47:41position this is this is actually
  1183. 47:43revision
  1184. 47:44statement a financial position known as
  1185. 47:45the balance sheet
  1186. 47:47number two statement of comprehensive
  1187. 47:48income is known as income statement well
  1188. 47:51and then number three statement of cash
  1189. 47:53flows also known as the cash flow
  1190. 47:55statement and finally the statement of
  1191. 47:57changes in equity so for this
  1192. 47:59um
  1193. 48:00[Music]
  1194. 48:01session we'll do the first one the
  1195. 48:04statement of financial position
  1196. 48:07right
  1197. 48:09okay let's talk a little bit more about
  1198. 48:11it the statement of financial position
  1199. 48:14is a financial statement
  1200. 48:17what is inside there
  1201. 48:19it has got
  1202. 48:20the entities assets
  1203. 48:22liabilities and equity
  1204. 48:24at a particular point in time so this
  1205. 48:27part is important
  1206. 48:29at one point of time it's like taking a
  1207. 48:32photo
  1208. 48:33is you it's as at that particular point
  1209. 48:38so it's the end of the reporting period
  1210. 48:42so if it is
  1211. 48:43at a particular point in time we need to
  1212. 48:45know exactly when that point of time is
  1213. 48:49right
  1214. 48:50so it is important to establish
  1215. 48:53when reading a statement of financial
  1216. 48:55position the date for which it was drawn
  1217. 48:58up
  1218. 49:00hence so therefore it is important to
  1219. 49:01display the date prominently in the
  1220. 49:04heading in the statement you've got a
  1221. 49:06title right so you must have got that
  1222. 49:10date
  1223. 49:12there
  1224. 49:13right because it's at a particular point
  1225. 49:15of time
  1226. 49:18okay
  1227. 49:19so the same financial position shows
  1228. 49:22what resources
  1229. 49:23the entity owns or controls
  1230. 49:28at a particular date meaning that it
  1231. 49:30shows what the assets are
  1232. 49:32and then on the other side
  1233. 49:35it shows how those resources of assets
  1234. 49:37are funded in other words just now we
  1235. 49:39say it's either from external parties
  1236. 49:41which means the liability and this is
  1237. 49:43what the
  1238. 49:44entity is owing outside
  1239. 49:47okay to outsiders and
  1240. 49:51it could be funded from the owners or
  1241. 49:52the shareholders which are equity so
  1242. 49:55asset on one side is equal to the total
  1243. 49:58liabilities plus the total equity
  1244. 50:03now this is an example of a statement of
  1245. 50:06financial positions i just want you to
  1246. 50:08have a look
  1247. 50:09at the rough format okay so
  1248. 50:13uh you've got assets on one side so here
  1249. 50:16you can you see current assets and
  1250. 50:18non-current assets
  1251. 50:19right so current assets you can list out
  1252. 50:21what they are right and then each one of
  1253. 50:24them they have got amount over there
  1254. 50:26so this part here can you see this class
  1255. 50:29the 78070 this part
  1256. 50:32this is the total current asset
  1257. 50:36right you can do the same for the
  1258. 50:38non-current assets so in this example
  1259. 50:40you've got office furniture and office
  1260. 50:41equipment so you've got two non-current
  1261. 50:42assets so this 9700 over here will give
  1262. 50:46you the total
  1263. 50:47non-current asset
  1264. 50:49if you total these two figures up
  1265. 50:52you get another total over here which we
  1266. 50:55call the total asset
  1267. 50:57eight seven seven seven zero
  1268. 51:00okay yeah
  1269. 51:01now let's have a look at the liabilities
  1270. 51:03part you got current liabilities and
  1271. 51:05you've got non-current liabilities as
  1272. 51:06well
  1273. 51:07right so in this example they have got
  1274. 51:10one
  1275. 51:11current liability which they call
  1276. 51:12accounts payable this is the amount over
  1277. 51:14here
  1278. 51:15and they also have one non-current
  1279. 51:18liability which they call a loan so if
  1280. 51:21you total up these two you have the
  1281. 51:23total liabilities right
  1282. 51:25correct
  1283. 51:26the the current liability and the
  1284. 51:28non-current liability gives you the
  1285. 51:29total liabilities right if you take the
  1286. 51:33total asset
  1287. 51:34away
  1288. 51:36with
  1289. 51:37the total liabilities
  1290. 51:39the remaining figure that you have here
  1291. 51:41is what they call the net assets you can
  1292. 51:44do it like this
  1293. 51:46and then on the other side
  1294. 51:48will be
  1295. 51:49your equity so you've got two items of
  1296. 51:52equity the capital as well as the profit
  1297. 51:55that thing total up must be equal on
  1298. 51:59both sides here huh the net assets and
  1299. 52:01the total equity so this is
  1300. 52:04how
  1301. 52:05the statement of financial position
  1302. 52:08uh should
  1303. 52:09look like roughly
  1304. 52:11uh when you get to prepare it okay
  1305. 52:15so note the formula the total assets
  1306. 52:17minus total abilities equal to the net
  1307. 52:19assets which is equal to the equity this
  1308. 52:21is the result of
  1309. 52:23some
  1310. 52:25rearrangements of the
  1311. 52:28accounting equation because you know the
  1312. 52:30asset
  1313. 52:31equals to liability plus equity right so
  1314. 52:34if you bring the liabilities to the left
  1315. 52:36side asset minus liability
  1316. 52:38will be equal to equity it says it's
  1317. 52:41actually the same
  1318. 52:43idea yeah
  1319. 52:45so
  1320. 52:46um
  1321. 52:47yeah this this part is a little bit of a
  1322. 52:50revision but let's have a look at it
  1323. 52:52more closely here you've got asset
  1324. 52:54definition
  1325. 52:56an asset is defined in the conceptual
  1326. 52:58framework as a present economic resource
  1327. 53:01controlled by entity as a result of past
  1328. 53:04events
  1329. 53:06where the economic resource
  1330. 53:08is a right that has a potential to
  1331. 53:11produce economic benefits when
  1332. 53:13what we mean by this is
  1333. 53:15future economic
  1334. 53:17benefits so there are three conditions
  1335. 53:19if you look at this um
  1336. 53:23definition according to the conceptual
  1337. 53:26framework
  1338. 53:27first
  1339. 53:28you must
  1340. 53:29it must be a present economic resource
  1341. 53:32in other words it's a right
  1342. 53:34that has potential to produce economic
  1343. 53:37benefits
  1344. 53:39it is something that is controlled by
  1345. 53:41the entity and it is a result of past
  1346. 53:44events
  1347. 53:45okay so um
  1348. 53:48i'll give you an example all right okay
  1349. 53:50huh
  1350. 53:51um
  1351. 53:53now
  1352. 53:54let's say
  1353. 53:55that this asset
  1354. 53:57remember you said an example of the
  1355. 53:58asset is cash right
  1356. 54:00cash everybody understands cash right
  1357. 54:02okay
  1358. 54:03is it
  1359. 54:05something that the
  1360. 54:06something that is going to provide
  1361. 54:10the
  1362. 54:11organization with some benefit later on
  1363. 54:13the answer is yes
  1364. 54:15because the organization can use this
  1365. 54:18cash
  1366. 54:19to buy some
  1367. 54:23the suppliers or things like that
  1368. 54:25so it's going to provide uh some form of
  1369. 54:28future benefits
  1370. 54:30okay
  1371. 54:31is it something that is controlled
  1372. 54:33if well if it is
  1373. 54:36belonging to the business then the
  1374. 54:38business has
  1375. 54:39control over it right so yes there is
  1376. 54:42control
  1377. 54:43uh criteria
  1378. 54:44and
  1379. 54:46is it a result of fast events the answer
  1380. 54:48is yes because if you think about it
  1381. 54:52the cash does not just appear from
  1382. 54:54nowhere isn't it if you if the business
  1383. 54:57has got cash today
  1384. 54:58right
  1385. 54:59it must be a result of something that
  1386. 55:01happened in the past
  1387. 55:03maybe the owner has contributed the cash
  1388. 55:06to the business or maybe
  1389. 55:09in the past there has been some sale
  1390. 55:15a past event it doesn't just appear
  1391. 55:18miraculously yeah all right
  1392. 55:23so you can think about this
  1393. 55:50right
  1394. 55:51sometimes okay
  1395. 55:53right we are back on
  1396. 55:56okay you know that
  1397. 55:58uh accounts receivable is another asset
  1398. 56:00and you know that inventory is another
  1399. 56:02asset so i would like you to have a
  1400. 56:05thought about
  1401. 56:07how
  1402. 56:07this accounts receivable
  1403. 56:18must have
  1404. 56:20uh must satisfy
  1405. 56:22all these three conditions so you must
  1406. 56:24think something must happen in the past
  1407. 56:27and it is it controlled by the entity
  1408. 56:29the answer should be yes right and
  1409. 56:32how is this accounts receivable or
  1410. 56:35inventory
  1411. 56:37going to be uh
  1412. 56:39providing some benefits in the future
  1413. 56:41right
  1414. 56:42okay so um i i'll leave you to to
  1415. 56:46uh think about it yeah
  1416. 56:48now let's have a look at liability
  1417. 56:51again it is defined
  1418. 56:54in the conceptual framework it is
  1419. 56:56actually a present obligation of entity
  1420. 56:58to transfer an economic resource as a
  1421. 57:00result of past events so there is a
  1422. 57:03definition if we break it down you can
  1423. 57:06see three conditions as well the first
  1424. 57:08one
  1425. 57:09it is a present obligation it is
  1426. 57:11something that the business is owing
  1427. 57:15to outsiders right now not tomorrow not
  1428. 57:20before but right now present
  1429. 57:23okay yeah
  1430. 57:25and condition number two there is an
  1431. 57:28obligation to transfer an economic
  1432. 57:30resource in other words uh if you've got
  1433. 57:32a liability
  1434. 57:33then sometime in the future
  1435. 57:36it
  1436. 57:38needs to be paid all right so for
  1437. 57:40example if you got a loan a loan is a
  1438. 57:42liability right we know that sometime in
  1439. 57:44the future it needs to be paid
  1440. 57:46if you got an amount owing to the
  1441. 57:48supplier we know that sometime in the
  1442. 57:49future it needs to be paid as well to
  1443. 57:51the supplier right so there is a uh an
  1444. 57:54obligation to transfer
  1445. 57:56an economic resource at some time in the
  1446. 57:58future
  1447. 58:00and
  1448. 58:01this
  1449. 58:01obligation that we have right now
  1450. 58:04did not appear out of nowhere it is a
  1451. 58:08result of something that happened in the
  1452. 58:10past
  1453. 58:12think about it something must have
  1454. 58:14happened before
  1455. 58:16so let's say for example today
  1456. 58:18president today
  1457. 58:20the business owes some money to the
  1458. 58:23supplier
  1459. 58:24right the business owes some money to
  1460. 58:26the supplier right now
  1461. 58:28but why is the business owing some money
  1462. 58:30to the supplier if
  1463. 58:46that
  1464. 58:47is related to
  1465. 58:48the amount that is owing now right now
  1466. 58:52and it needs to be
  1467. 58:53paid sometime in the future so
  1468. 58:57think about another
  1469. 59:00liability so i give you a loan right
  1470. 59:03think
  1471. 59:05um what happened in the past that
  1472. 59:08results in a loan now
  1473. 59:12well sometime before the business must
  1474. 59:14have
  1475. 59:17got a loan from the bank right so that
  1476. 59:19is why the business is owing money to
  1477. 59:21the bank right now
  1478. 59:24and it's got to be paid sometime in the
  1479. 59:26future
  1480. 59:27right now
  1481. 59:30how about equity equity is in uh is
  1482. 59:32interesting
  1483. 59:33because according to the conception
  1484. 59:35framework right it is the residual
  1485. 59:37interest
  1486. 59:38in the assets after deducting
  1487. 59:40liabilities
  1488. 59:41so
  1489. 59:42let's make it very clear
  1490. 59:44equity cannot be defined independently
  1491. 59:47of assets and liabilities in other words
  1492. 59:50if you want to to express what equity is
  1493. 59:53you need to know
  1494. 59:55the assets and liabilities
  1495. 59:57it doesn't have an independent
  1496. 59:59definition okay so in other words
  1497. 1:00:02equity is simply assets minus
  1498. 1:00:04probabilities
  1499. 1:00:05okay now equity comprises of various
  1500. 1:00:08items i give you the two most common one
  1501. 1:00:11the first one is capital
  1502. 1:00:13uh which are contributions by the owners
  1503. 1:00:15or the shareholders if it's the case of
  1504. 1:00:17a company
  1505. 1:00:18and number two it's retained profits uh
  1506. 1:00:21also known as retained earnings so this
  1507. 1:00:24comes from the profits that are earned
  1508. 1:00:26from
  1509. 1:00:27the the organization okay
  1510. 1:00:32okay now the next thing let's have a a a
  1511. 1:00:35demo problem
  1512. 1:00:36okay
  1513. 1:00:37uh there is this person
  1514. 1:00:39uh john
  1515. 1:00:41okay
  1516. 1:00:42commences means start
  1517. 1:00:44john starts a loan mowing business you
  1518. 1:00:46know loan mowing business you cut the
  1519. 1:00:48grass for somebody else okay
  1520. 1:00:51um the business has got a name
  1521. 1:00:53right it's called green enterprise
  1522. 1:00:56uh putting ten thousand dollars of his
  1523. 1:01:00own money into the business bank account
  1524. 1:01:02so can you see from this point
  1525. 1:01:05that the owner and the business are two
  1526. 1:01:07separate things
  1527. 1:01:09the owner is not the same as the
  1528. 1:01:10business the name of the owner is john
  1529. 1:01:12the name of the business is green
  1530. 1:01:14enterprise
  1531. 1:01:15all right huh
  1532. 1:01:17so
  1533. 1:01:20let's talk about the business
  1534. 1:01:21green
  1535. 1:01:22enterprise borrows 5000
  1536. 1:01:26from the bank to further fund the
  1537. 1:01:28business
  1538. 1:01:30and then
  1539. 1:01:31the next day on day 2 green enterprise
  1540. 1:01:34purchases a mower for 4 000 cash
  1541. 1:01:38and pays two thousand dollars for
  1542. 1:01:40advertising so in this case here
  1543. 1:01:42let's have a look
  1544. 1:01:45at the first thing
  1545. 1:01:46john commences a lawn mowing business
  1546. 1:01:49called green enterprise putting 10 000
  1547. 1:01:52of his own money into the business bank
  1548. 1:01:53account now before we go on right um
  1549. 1:01:57let me share with you
  1550. 1:01:58some things that we normally do when we
  1551. 1:02:01prepare accounts okay two things
  1552. 1:02:04number one accounts people
  1553. 1:02:08uh
  1554. 1:02:09i use the word accounts people be uh
  1555. 1:02:11rather than accountant because accounts
  1556. 1:02:14people is more general so anybody who's
  1557. 1:02:16doing accounts
  1558. 1:02:17uh accounts people
  1559. 1:02:19okay often use comma this is comma to
  1560. 1:02:24denote thousands for example
  1561. 1:02:27one zero comma zero zero zero means ten
  1562. 1:02:30thousand
  1563. 1:02:32or
  1564. 1:02:33this 100. the reason why we have
  1565. 1:02:36separator or comma is to make the
  1566. 1:02:38numbers easier to read
  1567. 1:02:41okay
  1568. 1:02:44um
  1569. 1:02:45the second thing
  1570. 1:02:47because people often use curved brackets
  1571. 1:02:49so this is a look at this curved bracket
  1572. 1:02:51to denote negative numbers so for
  1573. 1:02:53example
  1574. 1:02:55this 10 000 in curved brackets right
  1575. 1:02:58means negative 10 000 or minus 10 000 uh
  1576. 1:03:01is that quite clear all right the reason
  1577. 1:03:04for this
  1578. 1:03:06uh why why accounts people normally use
  1579. 1:03:08curved records rather than this tiny
  1580. 1:03:10minus sign
  1581. 1:03:12is because we have a lot of numbers to
  1582. 1:03:15look at in real life
  1583. 1:03:17and if you do
  1584. 1:03:19it's very easy to miss out a small tiny
  1585. 1:03:21minus so we put a big bracket to show
  1586. 1:03:25that it is a negative sign
  1587. 1:03:27all right
  1588. 1:03:30so in this case here
  1589. 1:03:31uh you can see
  1590. 1:03:33uh the worksheet it looks something like
  1591. 1:03:35this okay on the left side you've got
  1592. 1:03:36the asset items
  1593. 1:03:38uh on the right side you've got the
  1594. 1:03:39liability and owners equity items over
  1595. 1:03:41here all right so you got two uh two
  1596. 1:03:45uh types of assets cash is one of them
  1597. 1:03:47and more eventually later on you will
  1598. 1:03:50see that there's a mower okay
  1599. 1:03:52the value of the cash goes up because
  1600. 1:03:54now the business has got ten thousand
  1601. 1:03:56dollars cash right okay
  1602. 1:03:59um
  1603. 1:04:00where did the cash comes from it must
  1604. 1:04:01come from somewhere right it came from
  1605. 1:04:03the owner so it's the capital because
  1606. 1:04:06the owner puts in that ten thousand
  1607. 1:04:08dollars cash as capital so capital is
  1608. 1:04:11equity
  1609. 1:04:12right you can put a comment on the right
  1610. 1:04:14side so you can say the owner starts a
  1611. 1:04:16business like this
  1612. 1:04:18okay yeah
  1613. 1:04:19right
  1614. 1:04:22can you see that the left side equal to
  1615. 1:04:23the right side
  1616. 1:04:25left side total here
  1617. 1:04:27the total on the left side is ten
  1618. 1:04:30thousand plus zero is ten thousand right
  1619. 1:04:32on the the total on the right side is
  1620. 1:04:34zero for loan plus capital is ten
  1621. 1:04:36thousand so total on the right side is
  1622. 1:04:38ten or so
  1623. 1:04:40so total on the left side and total on
  1624. 1:04:41the right side is equal
  1625. 1:04:43okay
  1626. 1:04:45next
  1627. 1:04:47uh next transaction green enterprise
  1628. 1:04:49borrows five thousand dollars from the
  1629. 1:04:51bank to further fund the business so
  1630. 1:04:53when this happens
  1631. 1:04:57uh the business will get five thousand
  1632. 1:05:00dollars more right because
  1633. 1:05:02the bank will
  1634. 1:05:04lend five thousand dollars more to the
  1635. 1:05:05business right so the business has got
  1636. 1:05:07an extra five thousand dollars
  1637. 1:05:09increases cash by five thousand so
  1638. 1:05:11positive increases
  1639. 1:05:14okay
  1640. 1:05:15but
  1641. 1:05:16now the difference is there is a loan an
  1642. 1:05:18amount owing to the bank right so that
  1643. 1:05:20loan increases by 5000 as well
  1644. 1:05:23so now uh after two transactions the
  1645. 1:05:26first one and the second one
  1646. 1:05:27you got
  1647. 1:05:29cash
  1648. 1:05:3015 000 if you total it up
  1649. 1:05:33okay you got a liability in the form of
  1650. 1:05:35a loan is five thousand and then the
  1651. 1:05:36capital total if you total up is ten
  1652. 1:05:38thousand so
  1653. 1:05:40uh total asset which is fifteen thousand
  1654. 1:05:43equals to total liability which is five
  1655. 1:05:45thousand plus total owner's equity which
  1656. 1:05:47is ten thousand
  1657. 1:05:51now remember the next day
  1658. 1:05:53green enterprise purchased a mower for
  1659. 1:05:55four thousand dollars cash and pays two
  1660. 1:05:57thousand dollars for advertising okay
  1661. 1:06:00so
  1662. 1:06:02from this description
  1663. 1:06:05um
  1664. 1:06:06how does it actually affect the
  1665. 1:06:07accounting equation let's talk about
  1666. 1:06:09buying the mobile first
  1667. 1:06:11they use cash so cash goes down right
  1668. 1:06:14so cash goes down
  1669. 1:06:16so we put uh negative 4000 over here
  1670. 1:06:19remember we use uh bracket
  1671. 1:06:22it goes down but now you've got mower
  1672. 1:06:25the value of the mower goes up
  1673. 1:06:27the mower was not there before so now
  1674. 1:06:30there is a mower right so it goes up by
  1675. 1:06:334 000
  1676. 1:06:35and it has got nothing to do with
  1677. 1:06:37liability or owner's equity
  1678. 1:06:40so this particular transaction
  1679. 1:06:42there is a decrease in an asset item
  1680. 1:06:45cash
  1681. 1:06:46of 4 000 an increase in another asset
  1682. 1:06:49item
  1683. 1:06:51called more
  1684. 1:06:52by 4000
  1685. 1:06:54okay so the total on the left side is
  1686. 1:06:57zero
  1687. 1:06:58right and the total on the right side is
  1688. 1:07:01also zero right
  1689. 1:07:03okay so is it equal and balancing yes
  1690. 1:07:07even if the total is zero
  1691. 1:07:09right
  1692. 1:07:10and then the next thing is the business
  1693. 1:07:13paid for advertising so of course cash
  1694. 1:07:15goes down some more so that's
  1695. 1:07:18minus 2 000
  1696. 1:07:20right
  1697. 1:07:21and advertising is an expense
  1698. 1:07:24so
  1699. 1:07:26it is going to reduce the equity right
  1700. 1:07:30so that's why
  1701. 1:07:32uh under here right profit and loss it
  1702. 1:07:36reduces
  1703. 1:07:37right so negative 2000 over here and we
  1704. 1:07:40call it advertising okay so is it
  1705. 1:07:43balancing yes because the total on the
  1706. 1:07:45left side is
  1707. 1:07:47negative 2 000 and the total on the
  1708. 1:07:48right side is also negative 2 000 it is
  1709. 1:07:52balancing
  1710. 1:07:57and then the next thing that we're going
  1711. 1:07:58to do
  1712. 1:07:59in this worksheet is to total up all the
  1713. 1:08:02columns
  1714. 1:08:04right so
  1715. 1:08:06if you total up now be careful whether
  1716. 1:08:08it is positive or negative figure
  1717. 1:08:10right
  1718. 1:08:12so ten thousand plus five thousand
  1719. 1:08:13fifteen thousand minus four thousand
  1720. 1:08:15minus two thousand you get nine thousand
  1721. 1:08:18yeah do the same thing for the others uh
  1722. 1:08:20so more you get four thousand in total
  1723. 1:08:23loan you get 5 000 total capital you get
  1724. 1:08:2510 000 and then p and l profit and loss
  1725. 1:08:28uh here there's a negative 2 000. so if
  1726. 1:08:31you total up the left side you get 13
  1727. 1:08:34000 right
  1728. 1:08:359 000 plus 4 000 13
  1729. 1:08:37and then if you total up the right side
  1730. 1:08:39you are supposed to get thirteen
  1731. 1:08:41thousand also
  1732. 1:08:42so five thousand plus ten thousand
  1733. 1:08:43fifteen thousand minus two thousand is
  1734. 1:08:45thirteen thousand
  1735. 1:08:47all right huh so
  1736. 1:08:49that's
  1737. 1:08:50the worksheet
  1738. 1:08:52your first worksheet
  1739. 1:08:53okay
  1740. 1:08:56now
  1741. 1:08:57uh from the worksheet which was in the
  1742. 1:09:00previous slide you are now ready to
  1743. 1:09:02prepare
  1744. 1:09:04the statement of financial position so
  1745. 1:09:05it's got two sides one is the asset side
  1746. 1:09:07and the other one is liability and
  1747. 1:09:08owner's equity
  1748. 1:09:10so the asset side you've got two types
  1749. 1:09:12of assets cash and more and you've got
  1750. 1:09:14the numbers over here these numbers are
  1751. 1:09:17from the bottom
  1752. 1:09:18line the last line of the worksheet
  1753. 1:09:21okay and then you can total up this
  1754. 1:09:24equals thirteen thousand
  1755. 1:09:26total asset
  1756. 1:09:27and then for liability you got one
  1757. 1:09:29liability only that's loan your total
  1758. 1:09:31liability is five thousand also
  1759. 1:09:35and then for owner's equity you got the
  1760. 1:09:36capital and they got the loss which is 2
  1761. 1:09:38000 so you got the owner's equity is
  1762. 1:09:40eight thousand eight thousand plus five
  1763. 1:09:43thousand
  1764. 1:09:44is thirteen thousand
  1765. 1:09:46that's the right side so the total on
  1766. 1:09:47the left side
  1767. 1:09:49is equal to the total on the right side
  1768. 1:09:50so this is how
  1769. 1:09:52the statement of financial position work
  1770. 1:09:54right
  1771. 1:09:58okay now we will vary the description a
  1772. 1:10:02little bit
  1773. 1:10:03okay so everything is the same over here
  1774. 1:10:05uh john commences the loan mowing
  1775. 1:10:07business called green enterprise putting
  1776. 1:10:0810 000 of his own money into the
  1777. 1:10:10business bank account same
  1778. 1:10:12green enterprise borrows 5000 from the
  1779. 1:10:14bank to further fund the business is
  1780. 1:10:16still the same but now
  1781. 1:10:18we will change
  1782. 1:10:20uh
  1783. 1:10:21a little bit
  1784. 1:10:22of the example so on day two
  1785. 1:10:25green enterprise purchases a mower for 4
  1786. 1:10:28000
  1787. 1:10:29cash
  1788. 1:10:30and pays two thousand dollars for
  1789. 1:10:33advertising but what if the owner oh
  1790. 1:10:36sorry what if the mobile was purchased
  1791. 1:10:38on credit
  1792. 1:10:39with the four thousand dollar still
  1793. 1:10:41owing to the supplier so in this case
  1794. 1:10:44here
  1795. 1:10:45they didn't pay cash for the mower
  1796. 1:10:47so
  1797. 1:10:48you have to create another liability
  1798. 1:10:51which you call accounts payable so in
  1799. 1:10:54this case here the difference was this
  1800. 1:10:57line here
  1801. 1:10:58you've got the mower
  1802. 1:11:00which
  1803. 1:11:02is there but the business did not pay
  1804. 1:11:04cash so there is no
  1805. 1:11:07minus 4 000 for
  1806. 1:11:09cash column
  1807. 1:11:10instead you are creating an amount owing
  1808. 1:11:14to the supplier because you have not yet
  1809. 1:11:16paid them yet
  1810. 1:11:18right so there's a four thousand
  1811. 1:11:20here
  1812. 1:11:21okay so everything else is the same
  1813. 1:11:23so if you total up okay total cash is 13
  1814. 1:11:26more is 4 000 so if you total on the
  1815. 1:11:29left side is 17 000
  1816. 1:11:32total liability will be 5 000 plus 4 000
  1817. 1:11:35which you have created
  1818. 1:11:37for accounts payable
  1819. 1:11:39plus the
  1820. 1:11:42capital and profit and loss
  1821. 1:11:44okay you
  1822. 1:11:45should get
  1823. 1:11:47a total of 17
  1824. 1:11:50000 if you prepare the statement of
  1825. 1:11:52financial position
  1826. 1:11:55um
  1827. 1:11:56your
  1828. 1:11:57accounts payable
  1829. 1:11:59will be four thousand this time and then
  1830. 1:12:01instead of nine thousand dollars cash
  1831. 1:12:03you got 13 000 because you didn't pay
  1832. 1:12:06uh
  1833. 1:12:07cash for the mower so you got more cash
  1834. 1:12:10all right yeah so the left side total is
  1835. 1:12:1217 000 and then the right side total is
  1836. 1:12:1417 000 also so i'll leave you to look at
  1837. 1:12:16this in greater detail
  1838. 1:12:18in your own time okay
  1839. 1:12:24okay uh
  1840. 1:12:25next
  1841. 1:12:27um
  1842. 1:12:28you have seen
  1843. 1:12:30a simple statement of financial position
  1844. 1:12:32now let us have a closer look at it we
  1845. 1:12:35talk about the format and presentation
  1846. 1:12:37of the statement of financial position
  1847. 1:12:39all right
  1848. 1:12:40there are actually two main formats the
  1849. 1:12:43first one is called the t format
  1850. 1:12:46in which
  1851. 1:12:47assets are recorded on the left side and
  1852. 1:12:48then liabilities and equity are recorded
  1853. 1:12:50on the right side you have seen it in
  1854. 1:12:52just the previous uh example where the
  1855. 1:12:54asset is recorded on on the left side
  1856. 1:12:56and then the liabilities and equity is
  1857. 1:12:58record and on the right side this is
  1858. 1:13:00what we call
  1859. 1:13:01uh the t
  1860. 1:13:03format presentation
  1861. 1:13:06you have also seen
  1862. 1:13:09um
  1863. 1:13:10a narrative format okay in which case
  1864. 1:13:14the asset the liabilities and equity are
  1865. 1:13:16presented down the page either is a
  1866. 1:13:19equals to l plus b type of format or a
  1867. 1:13:22minus l equals to p type of format where
  1868. 1:13:25by a is asset l is liability and p is
  1869. 1:13:30owner's equity
  1870. 1:13:32okay yeah um
  1871. 1:13:35do you remember seeing that just a
  1872. 1:13:38moment ago
  1873. 1:13:39i'll show it to you yeah
  1874. 1:13:42the okay this is the t format
  1875. 1:13:44it looks like a t with uh asset on one
  1876. 1:13:47side liabilities and equity on the other
  1877. 1:13:50side
  1878. 1:13:51the narrative format you've seen it just
  1879. 1:13:53now
  1880. 1:13:54where is it yeah
  1881. 1:13:58um
  1882. 1:14:01oops
  1883. 1:14:02okay this is the narrative format
  1884. 1:14:04it presented the items are presented
  1885. 1:14:06down the page
  1886. 1:14:08so the numbers are presented down rather
  1887. 1:14:10so you can't see a t here
  1888. 1:14:12okay the asset presented first and then
  1889. 1:14:14reliability and equity are presented
  1890. 1:14:16later so this is the narrative format
  1891. 1:14:18okay
  1892. 1:14:19the advantage of this type of format is
  1893. 1:14:21uh you can actually write down la uh the
  1894. 1:14:25previous
  1895. 1:14:26uh
  1896. 1:14:27years or previous periods numbers
  1897. 1:14:29in another column
  1898. 1:14:31you cannot do that easily if you do a t
  1899. 1:14:34format
  1900. 1:14:35show you the t format again
  1901. 1:14:38um
  1902. 1:14:39okay this d format
  1903. 1:14:41okay
  1904. 1:14:43you know you can't present last year's
  1905. 1:14:44numbers easily like this it gets very
  1906. 1:14:46confusing okay so
  1907. 1:14:49that is why
  1908. 1:14:53most
  1909. 1:14:54statements of financial position
  1910. 1:14:56uh the published statement of financial
  1911. 1:14:58position the one that they use are in uh
  1912. 1:15:01by outside uh people the
  1913. 1:15:04the real
  1914. 1:15:05published statement of financial
  1915. 1:15:07position in other words they will use a
  1916. 1:15:09narrative format
  1917. 1:15:11because
  1918. 1:15:14um
  1919. 1:15:15there's an advantage of the narrative
  1920. 1:15:17format it allows comparative information
  1921. 1:15:20to be shown easily
  1922. 1:15:23and
  1923. 1:15:24not not only that
  1924. 1:15:26there is a requirement
  1925. 1:15:30to
  1926. 1:15:31show the comparative information there
  1927. 1:15:35is a requirement it is not uh something
  1928. 1:15:38that is uh you know by choice it is
  1929. 1:15:40required
  1930. 1:15:42in real life okay yeah
  1931. 1:15:46so that's why when you look at um
  1932. 1:15:49publish financial statements you will
  1933. 1:15:50see two columns one for this period one
  1934. 1:15:54for the previous period
  1935. 1:15:57so t format looks something like this
  1936. 1:16:00okay
  1937. 1:16:02there's more things inside there so you
  1938. 1:16:04can have a look at the the common types
  1939. 1:16:07of things that go into assets
  1940. 1:16:10liabilities and equity over here okay
  1941. 1:16:14if it is the narrative format same type
  1942. 1:16:17of information but presented down the
  1943. 1:16:20page like this
  1944. 1:16:24okay comparative information
  1945. 1:16:28is information for the previous
  1946. 1:16:30financial period right it allows the
  1947. 1:16:32users to see
  1948. 1:16:35how the entity's financial position has
  1949. 1:16:37changed between the current and previous
  1950. 1:16:40financial period is it increasing
  1951. 1:16:43or is it decreasing
  1952. 1:16:45or maybe there's no change from the
  1953. 1:16:47previous period to this to this period
  1954. 1:16:50okay
  1955. 1:16:54the next thing
  1956. 1:16:56let's talk about
  1957. 1:16:59presentation of disclosure of the
  1958. 1:17:01elements in the statement of financial
  1959. 1:17:04position
  1960. 1:17:05right
  1961. 1:17:06how do we present and disclose the asset
  1962. 1:17:11items the liability items and the equity
  1963. 1:17:14items in the statement of financial
  1964. 1:17:17position in other words
  1965. 1:17:21accounting standards
  1966. 1:17:24exist
  1967. 1:17:26to prescribe the presentation
  1968. 1:17:28classification and disclosure
  1969. 1:17:29requirements for asset liabilities and
  1970. 1:17:31equity on the statement of financial
  1971. 1:17:33position what this means
  1972. 1:17:35is that
  1973. 1:17:36the way we present the asset liabilities
  1974. 1:17:40and equity items
  1975. 1:17:42is guided
  1976. 1:17:46by what we call the accounting standards
  1977. 1:17:49okay so what this means is that
  1978. 1:17:53um if you want to do it properly
  1979. 1:17:55right do the statement of financial
  1980. 1:17:57position properly
  1981. 1:17:59you cannot prepare it in any way you
  1982. 1:18:02like there is a particular way to do it
  1983. 1:18:06and we want to
  1984. 1:18:08teach you the
  1985. 1:18:09proper way to do it okay yeah and that
  1986. 1:18:12way is in accordance with the accounting
  1987. 1:18:14standards so we learn the correct way
  1988. 1:18:17right so that when you see
  1989. 1:18:19a statement a financial position that
  1990. 1:18:22looks a little bit strange you are aware
  1991. 1:18:25of it okay we want to learn the correct
  1992. 1:18:27way so that when you see it done the
  1993. 1:18:29wrong way you will know okay
  1994. 1:18:34even though not legally required some
  1995. 1:18:37entities with no public accountability
  1996. 1:18:40voluntarily
  1997. 1:18:41voluntarily address similar
  1998. 1:18:43classification presentation and
  1999. 1:18:44disclosure practices as required by
  2000. 1:18:47accounting standards now
  2001. 1:18:50public accountability itself means
  2002. 1:18:52obligation or responsibility to report
  2003. 1:18:54to the public okay um
  2004. 1:18:58i'm not sure whether you remember this
  2005. 1:19:00okay but uh in the previous period
  2006. 1:19:04uh we say that
  2007. 1:19:06um
  2008. 1:19:09in terms of companies right there are
  2009. 1:19:11the private companies and the public
  2010. 1:19:13companies right
  2011. 1:19:15okay the public companies they get their
  2012. 1:19:17money from the public so they have an
  2013. 1:19:20obligation to report to the public
  2014. 1:19:22right so
  2015. 1:19:24therefore they cannot simply just do it
  2016. 1:19:27uh the other accounts in any way they
  2017. 1:19:29like
  2018. 1:19:30they must follow the accounting center
  2019. 1:19:31it is a must
  2020. 1:19:33okay for the private companies
  2021. 1:19:37um the only people that they are going
  2022. 1:19:39to report to are the you know the
  2023. 1:19:41shareholders of the private companies
  2024. 1:19:43but
  2025. 1:19:44for private companies they're not that
  2026. 1:19:45many anyway
  2027. 1:19:46so
  2028. 1:19:48uh they don't actually have to
  2029. 1:19:51follow the accounting standards
  2030. 1:19:53but for good practice
  2031. 1:19:56uh many public companies will still
  2032. 1:19:59follow the accounting standards because
  2033. 1:20:00they want to do it properly okay so i
  2034. 1:20:03think this is a good thing to
  2035. 1:20:06you know it's a good thing to to to do
  2036. 1:20:10right to voluntarily
  2037. 1:20:12use the accounting standards even though
  2038. 1:20:16they might not have to in uh for example
  2039. 1:20:19in the case of private companies okay
  2040. 1:20:24so um
  2041. 1:20:26how do you present the assets so just
  2042. 1:20:28now you saw that there were things of
  2043. 1:20:30current assets there were non-current
  2044. 1:20:31assets right okay so we will do this but
  2045. 1:20:34how what is the difference between
  2046. 1:20:35current assets and non-current assets
  2047. 1:20:37anyway
  2048. 1:20:40actually the distinction between current
  2049. 1:20:42and non-current
  2050. 1:20:43is based on timing
  2051. 1:20:45okay so if the economic benefits of the
  2052. 1:20:48asset or outflow of resources for the
  2053. 1:20:50liability are expected to be realized
  2054. 1:20:54within 12 months from the date
  2055. 1:20:57of the statement of financial position
  2056. 1:20:59then the asset or liability is
  2057. 1:21:00categorized as current okay so
  2058. 1:21:04example
  2059. 1:21:06um accounts receivable is an asset right
  2060. 1:21:10okay
  2061. 1:21:12we
  2062. 1:21:13will consider accounts visible as a
  2063. 1:21:15current asset why
  2064. 1:21:17because it is expected that the business
  2065. 1:21:20will collect the money
  2066. 1:21:22from the customer accounts receivable
  2067. 1:21:26within 12 months from the date of the
  2068. 1:21:28statement of financial position they
  2069. 1:21:30cannot take their own sweet time to
  2070. 1:21:32collect money from the customer right so
  2071. 1:21:34within the next 12 months they're
  2072. 1:21:35supposed to collect it already
  2073. 1:21:37okay so that is why it is current how
  2074. 1:21:40about
  2075. 1:21:41amounts owing to the supplier
  2076. 1:21:44we call we categorize this as a current
  2077. 1:21:47liability why because it is expected
  2078. 1:21:51that the business will pay to the
  2079. 1:21:53supplier
  2080. 1:21:55less than 12 months from the date of the
  2081. 1:21:58statement of financial position because
  2082. 1:22:00on the date of the statement of
  2083. 1:22:01financial position we know
  2084. 1:22:03that the business is owing money to the
  2085. 1:22:05supplier but when is the business going
  2086. 1:22:07to pay to the supplier
  2087. 1:22:08in less than 12 months from that date
  2088. 1:22:11because if it doesn't happen guess what
  2089. 1:22:14the supplier is going to chase for the
  2090. 1:22:17money right okay so
  2091. 1:22:19yeah
  2092. 1:22:20now
  2093. 1:22:21if economic benefits of the asset or
  2094. 1:22:24outflow resources of the liability are
  2095. 1:22:26expected
  2096. 1:22:27to be realized after the 12 months from
  2097. 1:22:30the date of the statement of financial
  2098. 1:22:31position then the asset or liability is
  2099. 1:22:34categorized as non-current
  2100. 1:22:36so i will explain it by using two
  2101. 1:22:38examples one for asset and one for
  2102. 1:22:40liability and i'll tell you why they
  2103. 1:22:43categorize it as non-current
  2104. 1:22:45remember from the previous
  2105. 1:22:49session
  2106. 1:22:50one example
  2107. 1:22:51of a non-current asset is property plan
  2108. 1:22:54and equipment
  2109. 1:22:56right okay why is it a non-current asset
  2110. 1:22:59rather than a current asset because when
  2111. 1:23:01you when the business buys
  2112. 1:23:04furniture or computer or a car
  2113. 1:23:09right it is expected that the business
  2114. 1:23:11is going to use it for more than one
  2115. 1:23:13year
  2116. 1:23:15right
  2117. 1:23:16um so that is why it is non-current
  2118. 1:23:20right um another example now this time
  2119. 1:23:22i'm going to give a liability example
  2120. 1:23:25you know a loan is a liability right a
  2121. 1:23:28loan is and
  2122. 1:23:30we would normally
  2123. 1:23:32um uh categorize
  2124. 1:23:35the loan as a non-current liability
  2125. 1:23:37why because when the business has got a
  2126. 1:23:39loan from the bank we do not pay the
  2127. 1:23:42bank so soon because a loan normally
  2128. 1:23:44will will last for two years three years
  2129. 1:23:46four years five years or even 10 years
  2130. 1:23:48right
  2131. 1:23:49then then they're paid back
  2132. 1:23:52so
  2133. 1:23:53for that reason we were classified as a
  2134. 1:23:55non-current liability right
  2135. 1:24:00so give you some examples of assets in
  2136. 1:24:03fact current assets in fact they have a
  2137. 1:24:05lot
  2138. 1:24:06for our purposes
  2139. 1:24:07i'll give you the examples that we are
  2140. 1:24:09going to come across again and again all
  2141. 1:24:12right if you see cash
  2142. 1:24:14or bank which is money in the bank
  2143. 1:24:17or accounts receivable also known as
  2144. 1:24:19debtors prepayments also known as
  2145. 1:24:21prepaid expenses or inventory any of
  2146. 1:24:23this uh you need to be aware that it is
  2147. 1:24:26a current asset
  2148. 1:24:27okay
  2149. 1:24:28if you uh see property flight equipment
  2150. 1:24:31this is a non-current asset is it okay
  2151. 1:24:35all right yeah
  2152. 1:24:38so as you can see here this is the
  2153. 1:24:40example can you see current asset over
  2154. 1:24:42here you can see the uh
  2155. 1:24:46some examples you've got cash okay
  2156. 1:24:49receivables inventories okay non-current
  2157. 1:24:52asset
  2158. 1:24:53you got plan and equipment can you see
  2159. 1:24:55that
  2160. 1:24:56uh you got this
  2161. 1:24:59uh intention don't worry too much about
  2162. 1:25:00intangible asset okay um
  2163. 1:25:04we won't be
  2164. 1:25:05doing it
  2165. 1:25:07for this uh this uh
  2166. 1:25:09unit
  2167. 1:25:11uh is just there to let you have a look
  2168. 1:25:13all right so you give your total assets
  2169. 1:25:16over here
  2170. 1:25:18now let's talk about current liabilities
  2171. 1:25:19okay we've got
  2172. 1:25:21bank overdraft means money owing to the
  2173. 1:25:23bank which you need to pay as soon as
  2174. 1:25:25possible
  2175. 1:25:27it's a amount of money in the bank that
  2176. 1:25:29has gone negative
  2177. 1:25:30you have to pay this as soon as possible
  2178. 1:25:32because the interest rate for overdraft
  2179. 1:25:34is very high
  2180. 1:25:36okay it's like a credit card interest
  2181. 1:25:39rate very high so
  2182. 1:25:44it's a current liability law because
  2183. 1:25:45it's expected that the business will pay
  2184. 1:25:47as soon as possible
  2185. 1:25:49um trade payables
  2186. 1:25:52money owing to supplier you need to pay
  2187. 1:25:54as soon as possible accrual
  2188. 1:25:56uh also known as accrued expenses
  2189. 1:25:58accruals are things like you know if
  2190. 1:25:59you've got money owing to for electric
  2191. 1:26:02uh company
  2192. 1:26:04all right water
  2193. 1:26:06uh
  2194. 1:26:07unpaid salaries you need to pay it as
  2195. 1:26:09soon as possible unless
  2196. 1:26:11i mean you need to pay as soon as
  2197. 1:26:13possible otherwise
  2198. 1:26:14the electric company or the water
  2199. 1:26:16company or the employees will start to
  2200. 1:26:18chase
  2201. 1:26:20all right
  2202. 1:26:22uh income tax payable
  2203. 1:26:24you need to pay that as soon as possible
  2204. 1:26:26if not the tax department will start
  2205. 1:26:28chasing
  2206. 1:26:29okay unearned revenue uh it is also
  2207. 1:26:32known as
  2208. 1:26:34revenue received in advance are money
  2209. 1:26:37that you have received from the customer
  2210. 1:26:40but you have not yet done the sale
  2211. 1:26:43okay a classic example is um
  2212. 1:26:46let's say
  2213. 1:26:48uh if it is an airline company you know
  2214. 1:26:51airline right like uh asia and things
  2215. 1:26:53like that when you buy the when you buy
  2216. 1:26:55a ticket you have to pay first right
  2217. 1:26:58okay but the airline company here has
  2218. 1:27:00not yet provided the service then it is
  2219. 1:27:04actually an unearned revenue they
  2220. 1:27:06receive the money but they have not yet
  2221. 1:27:08provided the service so it's a liability
  2222. 1:27:10yeah
  2223. 1:27:11it's not an income at that point of time
  2224. 1:27:15examples of non-current liabilities
  2225. 1:27:17you've got loans which i mentioned just
  2226. 1:27:18now
  2227. 1:27:19you might have mortgages and debentures
  2228. 1:27:21so i'm going to simplify the
  2229. 1:27:24uh the
  2230. 1:27:26explanation just think of mortgages and
  2231. 1:27:29debentures as something like loans as
  2232. 1:27:31well so if you see this it's a
  2233. 1:27:33non-current liability okay the reason
  2234. 1:27:35why i put that inside there
  2235. 1:27:37is because i think in your
  2236. 1:27:39some some way along your
  2237. 1:27:42tutorial questions you might come across
  2238. 1:27:44mortgages and debentures if you see it
  2239. 1:27:46it is a non-current liability
  2240. 1:27:50okay so the presentation is as follows
  2241. 1:27:53for the liabilities you got the current
  2242. 1:27:54liabilities so you can see some examples
  2243. 1:27:57of current liabilities and then the same
  2244. 1:27:59thing for non-current liabilities over
  2245. 1:28:01here
  2246. 1:28:02all right um
  2247. 1:28:05i think for the for our purposes let's
  2248. 1:28:07make life simple right just look at the
  2249. 1:28:10borrowings the borrowings will be the
  2250. 1:28:11loans and the benches that's it okay
  2251. 1:28:14don't worry too much about the other
  2252. 1:28:16things over here right
  2253. 1:28:19uh
  2254. 1:28:20what we are just showing you that is
  2255. 1:28:22that you know uh in in real life there
  2256. 1:28:24are
  2257. 1:28:25quite a number of other things over
  2258. 1:28:27there and
  2259. 1:28:28the fact that you need to total up the
  2260. 1:28:30non-current asset and the
  2261. 1:28:32current asset
  2262. 1:28:34so that you get a total
  2263. 1:28:36sorry the non-current liability and the
  2264. 1:28:40current liability so that you get the
  2265. 1:28:41total liabilities right
  2266. 1:28:44how about the equity
  2267. 1:28:46um
  2268. 1:28:48depending on the
  2269. 1:28:49entity structure
  2270. 1:28:51the terminology
  2271. 1:28:53and equity classification were
  2272. 1:28:55appearing on the statement of financial
  2273. 1:28:57position will vary so if you've got a
  2274. 1:28:59sole trader and a partnership
  2275. 1:29:01you will have profit loss and drawings
  2276. 1:29:04which contributes directly to equity
  2277. 1:29:07that means
  2278. 1:29:08um
  2279. 1:29:11um
  2280. 1:29:12you've got the original equity and then
  2281. 1:29:15if you've got profit and loss you just
  2282. 1:29:16add the uh add to that equity if you go
  2283. 1:29:18drawings you just minus off from that
  2284. 1:29:20equity for the sole trader and
  2285. 1:29:22partnership
  2286. 1:29:23for the companies
  2287. 1:29:25you have got share capital
  2288. 1:29:27you have got retained earnings and you
  2289. 1:29:29might have reserved and it's going to be
  2290. 1:29:31on separate line
  2291. 1:29:32okay one line for
  2292. 1:29:34capital one line for retaining earnings
  2293. 1:29:36one line for reserve but don't worry too
  2294. 1:29:37much about the reserve law because
  2295. 1:29:39um we won't really be talking about it
  2296. 1:29:42but we will be talking about the share
  2297. 1:29:44capital and the retained earnings
  2298. 1:29:45because uh sometimes we do the accounts
  2299. 1:29:47for companies right
  2300. 1:29:49retailers remember is also known as
  2301. 1:29:51retained profits
  2302. 1:29:55so this is an example
  2303. 1:29:57okay you can see here equity you've got
  2304. 1:30:00the
  2305. 1:30:01um
  2306. 1:30:02the share capital which they call
  2307. 1:30:03contributed equity right you've got the
  2308. 1:30:06reserve and you've got the retained
  2309. 1:30:07earnings so there are three things here
  2310. 1:30:08you got the total equity over here
  2311. 1:30:10right
  2312. 1:30:11um from here
  2313. 1:30:14from here i can tell that it is
  2314. 1:30:17the equity section of a company
  2315. 1:30:21right um
  2316. 1:30:24because this is the normal
  2317. 1:30:26format and if you look here double
  2318. 1:30:28confirm yes i can see it limited here so
  2319. 1:30:31i know it is a company structure
  2320. 1:30:33okay
  2321. 1:30:38okay the next one
  2322. 1:30:40okay um
  2323. 1:30:42we're gonna
  2324. 1:30:43measure property equipment
  2325. 1:30:46okay um now remember just now we said
  2326. 1:30:49property equipment or ppe they are
  2327. 1:30:51non-current assets
  2328. 1:30:54and then what else do we need to know
  2329. 1:30:55about ppe
  2330. 1:30:57most property plant equipment have
  2331. 1:30:59limited useful lives
  2332. 1:31:01and must be depreciated in other words
  2333. 1:31:04the time period where it is useful
  2334. 1:31:07is limited it could be a couple of years
  2335. 1:31:10like a car
  2336. 1:31:12might be useful for let's say for
  2337. 1:31:14business purposes maybe about five years
  2338. 1:31:16kind of thing
  2339. 1:31:17right furniture a few things like this
  2340. 1:31:19maybe a bit longer
  2341. 1:31:21but computers
  2342. 1:31:24not
  2343. 1:31:25that long
  2344. 1:31:27right maybe about three years or
  2345. 1:31:28something it needs to be changed
  2346. 1:31:31right
  2347. 1:31:32so
  2348. 1:31:33um
  2349. 1:31:35depreciation
  2350. 1:31:36is
  2351. 1:31:38uh the allocation of that
  2352. 1:31:40depreciable amount of the asset we'll
  2353. 1:31:42talk a little bit more about that when
  2354. 1:31:44we talk about uh calculation of the
  2355. 1:31:46precision
  2356. 1:31:48now the depreciable amount of that asset
  2357. 1:31:50over the useful life
  2358. 1:31:53right so on the statement of the
  2359. 1:31:55financial position the depreciable
  2360. 1:31:58assets are stated at the what we call
  2361. 1:32:01the carrying amount right so what does
  2362. 1:32:04it mean it means cost minus what we call
  2363. 1:32:08accumulated depreciation
  2364. 1:32:11right so it's a net figure you've got
  2365. 1:32:13the original cost and then you've got
  2366. 1:32:15another amount which you call the
  2367. 1:32:16accumulated depreciation one minus the
  2368. 1:32:18other is what we call the carrying
  2369. 1:32:20amount and that carrying amount is the
  2370. 1:32:22one that gets
  2371. 1:32:24that you see in the statement of
  2372. 1:32:25financial position
  2373. 1:32:28okay
  2374. 1:32:29um in the next period we will look more
  2375. 1:32:32closely at the calculation of the
  2376. 1:32:34depreciation
  2377. 1:32:36okay now we look at
  2378. 1:32:38factors influencing the form and content
  2379. 1:32:40of the statement of financial position
  2380. 1:32:43the three main influences on the
  2381. 1:32:45accounts they are number one
  2382. 1:32:47traditional accounting conventions and
  2383. 1:32:49drop trains what we normally will do
  2384. 1:32:53when we prepare the accounts
  2385. 1:32:55right
  2386. 1:32:56number two
  2387. 1:32:57more recent uh theoretical developments
  2388. 1:33:00in the conceptual framework in other
  2389. 1:33:01words um
  2390. 1:33:06more recent ways of doing things
  2391. 1:33:09right according to the conception
  2392. 1:33:10framework
  2393. 1:33:11and any changes to the accounting
  2394. 1:33:14standards so if you've got one or more
  2395. 1:33:15of this
  2396. 1:33:16this will influence how we present the
  2397. 1:33:20statement of financial position
  2398. 1:33:24now we're going to start off with
  2399. 1:33:27um the traditional things because you
  2400. 1:33:29need to be aware
  2401. 1:33:31of
  2402. 1:33:32what we have done
  2403. 1:33:34for the longest time
  2404. 1:33:37in the past
  2405. 1:33:38before you come to the present
  2406. 1:33:41right huh you need to know what happened
  2407. 1:33:42before
  2408. 1:33:44for a long long time for
  2409. 1:33:47decades or even centuries i suppose but
  2410. 1:33:51these are what we
  2411. 1:33:52um
  2412. 1:33:54talk about in terms of uh traditional
  2413. 1:33:56accounting conventions and doctrines
  2414. 1:33:59first of all the first idea there is the
  2415. 1:34:01accounting entity convention which
  2416. 1:34:04basically we have talked about it before
  2417. 1:34:07for accounting purposes the business and
  2418. 1:34:09owner are treated as separate and
  2419. 1:34:12distinct right so this
  2420. 1:34:16uh
  2421. 1:34:17we came across is now
  2422. 1:34:19this one the next one money measurement
  2423. 1:34:22or monetary unit convention what does
  2424. 1:34:25this mean
  2425. 1:34:26it means that accounting
  2426. 1:34:29should only record those items which are
  2427. 1:34:32capable of
  2428. 1:34:33being expressed in monetary or dollar
  2429. 1:34:36value terms
  2430. 1:34:38if you can record something that
  2431. 1:34:39involves money
  2432. 1:34:41then we can record it if there's some if
  2433. 1:34:43whatever it is does not involve money it
  2434. 1:34:46does not get recorded in the accounts
  2435. 1:34:49because there's no money to record
  2436. 1:34:51okay you need to be able to express in
  2437. 1:34:55money terms
  2438. 1:34:56next
  2439. 1:34:57historical cost convention
  2440. 1:35:00in other words assets should be recorded
  2441. 1:35:03at their historical or acquisition cost
  2442. 1:35:06or equivalent right
  2443. 1:35:08now
  2444. 1:35:11this is the first thing that we learn
  2445. 1:35:14when we talk about assets or even
  2446. 1:35:16liabilities
  2447. 1:35:17the amount that we record was something
  2448. 1:35:20that actually happened in the past so we
  2449. 1:35:22will record it but
  2450. 1:35:27some of the items in assets and
  2451. 1:35:28liabilities are now being
  2452. 1:35:31reassessed or even challenged
  2453. 1:35:33by recent developments because
  2454. 1:35:36some of the asset items
  2455. 1:35:39can actually change in value
  2456. 1:35:42right so what if they actually change in
  2457. 1:35:45value then we
  2458. 1:35:48uh we may change
  2459. 1:35:51some of the asset values if appropriate
  2460. 1:35:53but
  2461. 1:35:54to simplify things for our purposes
  2462. 1:35:57we're going to use the historical cost
  2463. 1:35:59right we won't change the value
  2464. 1:36:02until
  2465. 1:36:03some time in the future okay
  2466. 1:36:09next one
  2467. 1:36:10is the going concern or continuity
  2468. 1:36:13convention what does this mean
  2469. 1:36:16it means that the business will continue
  2470. 1:36:18operations for foreseeable future
  2471. 1:36:21meaning that the business does not need
  2472. 1:36:23to or intend to liquidate the business
  2473. 1:36:26is not expected to close down anytime
  2474. 1:36:28soon
  2475. 1:36:29right
  2476. 1:36:30um
  2477. 1:36:32so this is an another idea so hopefully
  2478. 1:36:35you can understand this right we don't
  2479. 1:36:36expect the the organization to close
  2480. 1:36:38shop anytime soon
  2481. 1:36:40okay the next one
  2482. 1:36:42the dual aspect of duality convention
  2483. 1:36:45this means that each transaction has got
  2484. 1:36:47two aspects and each aspect must be
  2485. 1:36:49recorded in the financial position asset
  2486. 1:36:52equals liability plus owner's equity
  2487. 1:36:54remember just now we said that there is
  2488. 1:36:55the duality you have to record the
  2489. 1:36:58uh the transaction in at least two
  2490. 1:36:59places okay this is what it means all
  2491. 1:37:02right now
  2492. 1:37:04the next one
  2493. 1:37:06if the is objectivity and reliability
  2494. 1:37:09convention in other words financial
  2495. 1:37:11reports should be based on objective or
  2496. 1:37:13verifiable evidence in other words
  2497. 1:37:16um whatever that gets recorded in the
  2498. 1:37:19accounts
  2499. 1:37:20should be as reliable as possible
  2500. 1:37:25right so if we can get
  2501. 1:37:27um
  2502. 1:37:29evidence of that amount
  2503. 1:37:32then that's the best
  2504. 1:37:34okay um
  2505. 1:37:37if you cannot
  2506. 1:37:39get evidence that means there's no bill
  2507. 1:37:41or some other
  2508. 1:37:42um
  2509. 1:37:44places where you can actually show this
  2510. 1:37:46is the amount for this transaction
  2511. 1:37:48um
  2512. 1:37:50you know
  2513. 1:37:51the best thing is if you can show
  2514. 1:37:52evidence now if you cannot
  2515. 1:37:55then
  2516. 1:37:56if you cannot show evidence then you
  2517. 1:37:58might have to do some
  2518. 1:38:01all right you might have to
  2519. 1:38:04think what is the most appropriate
  2520. 1:38:06amount now this would happen um
  2521. 1:38:08this might happen in real life but for
  2522. 1:38:11student purposes right so for us here
  2523. 1:38:14um the numbers will be given to you in
  2524. 1:38:16the question so you don't have to like
  2525. 1:38:18really worry that much about how much is
  2526. 1:38:19this thing
  2527. 1:38:20okay but what i'm saying is um you know
  2528. 1:38:23sometimes in real life right we don't
  2529. 1:38:25have the the the bills and things like
  2530. 1:38:28that okay we have to think but we know
  2531. 1:38:30that there's a an amount we have to
  2532. 1:38:34do some estimation
  2533. 1:38:36sometimes
  2534. 1:38:37okay we try not to have too much of this
  2535. 1:38:39going on
  2536. 1:38:41the next uh idea is the accounting
  2537. 1:38:44period convention what this mean what
  2538. 1:38:46this means is that the entire life of
  2539. 1:38:48the business from beginning until the
  2540. 1:38:51end
  2541. 1:38:52is divided into time periods for example
  2542. 1:38:54yearly
  2543. 1:38:56whereby the entity's financial
  2544. 1:38:57performance and position are calculated
  2545. 1:38:59and reported okay if you think about it
  2546. 1:39:02right
  2547. 1:39:04the time when the business started
  2548. 1:39:07to the time when the business
  2549. 1:39:10closes all right
  2550. 1:39:13um
  2551. 1:39:14could be quite a long time many many
  2552. 1:39:16years
  2553. 1:39:17right but we're not going to wait until
  2554. 1:39:19that many many years before reporting we
  2555. 1:39:21will
  2556. 1:39:22report let's say monthly or yearly
  2557. 1:39:24because we need to know what is going on
  2558. 1:39:27in the business
  2559. 1:39:29right so
  2560. 1:39:30we are following this accounting period
  2561. 1:39:32convention in in
  2562. 1:39:34saying that the whole life of the
  2563. 1:39:36business you can actually
  2564. 1:39:38uh
  2565. 1:39:40uh express it in in shorter time periods
  2566. 1:39:43like yearly or even monthly right
  2567. 1:39:46and the next one is matching convention
  2568. 1:39:49saying that income earned during an
  2569. 1:39:50accounting period must be matched with a
  2570. 1:39:52cost in generating that income so
  2571. 1:39:55under the matching convention
  2572. 1:39:57we are talking about income and expenses
  2573. 1:40:00we are saying that
  2574. 1:40:02if you have got income
  2575. 1:40:05you must have got some expenses that you
  2576. 1:40:07have to earn that income
  2577. 1:40:10right so that means that if you've got a
  2578. 1:40:12sale you sold some things to customer
  2579. 1:40:14right
  2580. 1:40:15okay in the process of selling you have
  2581. 1:40:18expenses
  2582. 1:40:20for example
  2583. 1:40:21you might have done some advertising
  2584. 1:40:23before
  2585. 1:40:24or you need to pay the workers in order
  2586. 1:40:27to have that sale
  2587. 1:40:28right or you need to have some um
  2588. 1:40:32use some machinery or something like
  2589. 1:40:34that you know you need to drive the
  2590. 1:40:35vehicle
  2591. 1:40:37somewhere in order to make that sale so
  2592. 1:40:39there are
  2593. 1:40:42costs or expenses
  2594. 1:40:45that is related to that
  2595. 1:40:48income
  2596. 1:40:49so we're trying to match the expenses to
  2597. 1:40:53earning that income
  2598. 1:40:54all right huh so that's the matching
  2599. 1:40:56convention
  2600. 1:41:00okay now the next day
  2601. 1:41:02uh after after looking at the
  2602. 1:41:05conventions and doctrines there we look
  2603. 1:41:08at the potential limitations of the
  2604. 1:41:10statement of financial position so now
  2605. 1:41:12that we have recorded
  2606. 1:41:14or learned how to to prepare the
  2607. 1:41:16statement of financial position
  2608. 1:41:18i want us to
  2609. 1:41:20be aware that there are some
  2610. 1:41:24limitations okay the first one
  2611. 1:41:28the statement of financial position
  2612. 1:41:29shows asset liability and equity values
  2613. 1:41:32at a particular point in time
  2614. 1:41:35okay so
  2615. 1:41:37these assets liability equity
  2616. 1:41:40items are
  2617. 1:41:41may not be representative of other
  2618. 1:41:43points in time
  2619. 1:41:46because it only shows those items at one
  2620. 1:41:49part on one particular day so what
  2621. 1:41:51happened to the other days
  2622. 1:41:53unless you you are preparing the same
  2623. 1:41:56financial position on the other days
  2624. 1:41:57then you can see what is going on every
  2625. 1:41:59day right but
  2626. 1:42:02companies don't normally do that they
  2627. 1:42:04will prepare the statement of financial
  2628. 1:42:06position let's say monthly or even
  2629. 1:42:09yearly so you will know at one point of
  2630. 1:42:12time so this is one limitation
  2631. 1:42:15right
  2632. 1:42:18number two
  2633. 1:42:19the statement of financial position may
  2634. 1:42:21not properly reflect the entity's value
  2635. 1:42:24due to
  2636. 1:42:26items that generate future benefit or
  2637. 1:42:29involve future sacrifices not satisfying
  2638. 1:42:32the definition and or recognition
  2639. 1:42:34criteria for example human resources
  2640. 1:42:36okay
  2641. 1:42:38um
  2642. 1:42:39let me
  2643. 1:42:40compare two companies all right company
  2644. 1:42:43a
  2645. 1:42:44and company b all right
  2646. 1:42:46let's say that company a and company b
  2647. 1:42:49has exactly the same amount of asset
  2648. 1:42:52liability and equity
  2649. 1:42:54presented in the statement of financial
  2650. 1:42:57positions so it looks like
  2651. 1:42:59that they are of the same value right
  2652. 1:43:02okay imagine that they have got exactly
  2653. 1:43:04the same statement of financial position
  2654. 1:43:06okay yeah
  2655. 1:43:07but
  2656. 1:43:09company a has got good workers
  2657. 1:43:12company b the workers are not so
  2658. 1:43:14knowledgeable uh maybe they're a bit
  2659. 1:43:16more careless and things like that so
  2660. 1:43:19which company actually has got more
  2661. 1:43:22value even though you may see the same
  2662. 1:43:25statement of financial position
  2663. 1:43:27we would normally think company a
  2664. 1:43:29because the workers are better right but
  2665. 1:43:33the
  2666. 1:43:36quality statement our financial position
  2667. 1:43:39why
  2668. 1:43:40because we don't
  2669. 1:43:42we we cannot put a value to it we don't
  2670. 1:43:45know how much
  2671. 1:43:47and even if we put the value to it
  2672. 1:43:49one person thinks that this is value one
  2673. 1:43:51person thinks it's another value so it's
  2674. 1:43:52not really very
  2675. 1:43:54uh verifiable right okay so
  2676. 1:43:58what i want to
  2677. 1:44:00make you aware is some things may not be
  2678. 1:44:03able to be recorded in the statement of
  2679. 1:44:05financial position and that's one
  2680. 1:44:07limitation another limitation is that
  2681. 1:44:09there are historical nature or
  2682. 1:44:12combination of cost and fair value
  2683. 1:44:14in the statement of financial position
  2684. 1:44:16now in the purest form of statement of
  2685. 1:44:18financial position all the numbers
  2686. 1:44:21inside there are historical values what
  2687. 1:44:24actually happened in the past
  2688. 1:44:26okay and this is what most people
  2689. 1:44:29did before
  2690. 1:44:30but increasingly
  2691. 1:44:33people are
  2692. 1:44:35starting to
  2693. 1:44:37question
  2694. 1:44:38some of these historical values
  2695. 1:44:40uh
  2696. 1:44:41yes it actually happened okay but it may
  2697. 1:44:44not be the most appropriate values
  2698. 1:44:47uh at some point in the future right so
  2699. 1:44:50let's say that we are in the future all
  2700. 1:44:52right this piece of land it was
  2701. 1:44:54purchased for one million dollars 20
  2702. 1:44:57years ago
  2703. 1:44:58and it is still recorded as one million
  2704. 1:45:00dollars in the in the accounts
  2705. 1:45:03is it accurate
  2706. 1:45:04you can say yes or you can say no it is
  2707. 1:45:07accurate because we bought it for one
  2708. 1:45:09million dollars
  2709. 1:45:11but
  2710. 1:45:11you are preparing the statement of
  2711. 1:45:13financial position in the year 2022 is
  2712. 1:45:15the value
  2713. 1:45:171 million dollars
  2714. 1:45:20depending on how you look at it yes
  2715. 1:45:23because we paid 1 million dollars for it
  2716. 1:45:26no because the value
  2717. 1:45:28in this day and age is not one million
  2718. 1:45:31dollars so why are we recording that
  2719. 1:45:33amount in the state of financial
  2720. 1:45:34position so
  2721. 1:45:36some of the items
  2722. 1:45:38you you have that kind of thing going on
  2723. 1:45:40yeah
  2724. 1:45:42and then another limitation
  2725. 1:45:46is when you prepare the statement of
  2726. 1:45:48financial position
  2727. 1:45:51actually in real life it
  2728. 1:45:53involves management choices for example
  2729. 1:45:56the method the depreciation there is
  2730. 1:45:58more than one way of doing depreciation
  2731. 1:46:02what we're supposed to do is to choose
  2732. 1:46:03the most
  2733. 1:46:05um appropriate way
  2734. 1:46:08right the accounting
  2735. 1:46:09standards
  2736. 1:46:11allow more than one way
  2737. 1:46:13so by right we should choose the most
  2738. 1:46:15appropriate way but sometimes
  2739. 1:46:19people might choose the
  2740. 1:46:22way that it's going to present the
  2741. 1:46:24numbers in the best possible manner
  2742. 1:46:27which might not be the most uh
  2743. 1:46:29uh proper way theoretically okay
  2744. 1:46:33um
  2745. 1:46:34numbers in the statement financial
