adjusting process.

34

3-1

Under the accrual basis of
accounting, revenues are
reported in the income
statement in the period in
which they are earned.
5


3-1

The accounting concept that
supports this approach to reporting
of revenues is called the revenue
recognition concept.

6

3-1

The accounting concept that
supports reporting revenues and
related expenses in the same
period is called the matching
concept, or matching principle.
7

3-1


Under the cash basis of
accounting, revenues and
expenses are reported in the
income statement in the period in
which cash is received or paid.
8

3-1

The analysis and updating of
accounts at the end of the period
before the financial statements
are prepared is called the
adjusting process.
9

3-1

The journal entries that bring
the accounts up to date at the

end of the accounting period
are called adjusting entries.

@solusinet

Physical resources that are
owned and used by a business
and are permanent or have a
long life are called fixed
assets, or plant assets.
39

3-2

As time passes, a fixed
asset loses its ability to
provide useful services.
This decrease in
usefulness is called
depreciation.
40

3-2

Normal titles for fixed asset accounts and their
related contra asset accounts are as follows:
Fixed Asset

unearned revenue that was earned, (2) earned revenue that
was not billed of Rp12,500,000, and (3) accrued wages of
Rp2,900,000. Indicate the combined effect of the errors on
(a) revenues, (b) expenses, and (c) net income for 2008.

(Rp8,600,000 + Rp12,500,000).
b. Expenses were understated by Rp2,900,000.
c. Net income was understated by Rp18,200,000

For each of the following errors, considered individually,
indicate whether the error would cause the adjusted trial
balance totals to be unequal. If the error would cause the
adjusted trial balance total to be unequal, indicate whether
the debit or credit total is higher and by how much.
a. The adjustment for accrued fees of Rp5,340,000 was
journalized as a debit to Accounts Payable for Rp5,340,000
and a credit to Fees Earned of Rp5,340,000.
b. The adjustment for depreciation of Rp3,260,000 was
journalized as a debit to Depreciation Expense for
Rp3,620,000 and a credit to Accumulated Depreciation for
Rp3,260,000.
55
56

3-4

Follow My Example 3-9
a. The totals are equal even though the debit should
have been to Accounts Receivable instead of
Accounts Payable.
b. The totals are unequal. The debit total is higher by
Rp360,000 (Rp3,620,000 – Rp3,260,000).
