Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) Overview Accounting provides us with a standardized system for recording financial events that occur within an organization, as well as the organization’s overall financial position. To ensure a reasonable degree of consistency in the presentation of financial information, a system of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) has evolved.
◗
GAAP is not a legal requirement. However, if an organization’s financial statements are audited by an outside Certified Public Accounting (CPA) firm in the United States or by a Chartered Accounting (CA) firm in Canada, the auditors are required to disclose deviations from GAAP. Such deviations can jeopardize a firm’s financial credibility. As a result, most audited organizations comply with the rules.
◗
In the United States, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) writes the rules. In Canada, the rule-making body is the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA).
◗
Accounting is not standardized internationally. The United States and Canada are very similar in their GAAP rules and requirements, but other countries often make very different GAAP assumptions. Many large multinational organizations follow the International Accounting Standards (IAS).
◗
With multinational companies, the accounting rules of the parent company’s country are normally used in the consolidated statements. Thus, a U.S. company with international subsidiaries will follow U.S. GAAP in its annual report, while a British company with U.S. subsidiaries will prepare its statements in accordance with British GAAP.
◗
While GAAP is the system used for reporting to the shareholders, banks, and the public, a business’s tax accounting will comply with the tax laws of the countries in which it does business. As a result, the numbers on the tax return will often differ from those on the financial statements.
GAAP rules are extensive and often quite complex. The following are among the most critical GAAP assumptions:
◗
The fiscal period—While organizations typically prepare monthly, quarterly, and year-to-date financial statements, one year—or approximately one year—is usually the critical financial period.
◗
The use of historical cost—In most countries, historical cost (i.e., what was paid) is the basis for valuing assets. This can lead to undervaluing of assets, as the current market value may be much greater due to inflation or other factors. However, if an asset is permanently impaired its value must be lowered to what it is now worth.
◗
Conservatism—Conservatism requires that losses be recognized as soon as they can be quantified, while gains must be recorded when earned.

L1.3
Understanding the Accounting Process The Five Types of Accounts Although there may be thousands of accounts, they all fall into one of five categories:
◗
Assets—everything the business owns: cash, receivables, inventory, property buildings, equipment, and investments
◗
Liabilities—the debts and financial obligations
◗
Equity—what the shareholders paid for stock and the reinvested profits (i.e., retained earnings)
◗
Revenues—what the organization earned from selling its products or services; there may also be revenues from investments or the sale of assets
◗
Expenses—costs incurred in running the business
The Overall Accounting Process An organization’s accounting system documents all of the financial transactions that occur during an accounting period. These transactions are then classified and summarized through a process that ultimately yields a set of financial statements. Transactions A transaction is a business event, expressed in monetary terms, that is entered into the accounting records. Purchasing equipment, paying staff members, and recording a sale are all examples of accounting transactions. Journal Entries Journal entries record transactions in the order in which they occur. They contain “supporting details” or “backup,” which reference the events or items affected, such as an invoice number. Journal entries are referred to when the accuracy or purpose of a transaction must be checked. Ledgers
◗
The ledgers are organized by account and record all transactions that involve the account.
◗
The general ledger (GL) includes all accounts used by the business. The primary financial statements are prepared from the general ledger.
◗
Subsidiary ledgers support certain general ledger accounts such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, and inventory. The subsidiary ledger provides details about the account. For example, the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger lists all the customers of the business, their balances, and the transactions that have taken place in each account.

L1.4
Adjusting Entries At the end of an accounting period, various adjustments are made to account balances to reflect economic events that occurred but did not cause a transaction. Examples of such adjusting entries include recording depreciation expenses or accruing liabilities for expenses that were incurred during the period, such as salaries that have not been paid. Closing the Books At the end of each accounting period, revenue and expense accounts are consolidated to determine if the organization made or lost money and are reset to zero. This process allows the organization to identify its revenues and expenses for that particular period. The profit or loss for the period is then transferred to the retained earnings account of the Balance Sheet. Then the financial statements are prepared. Double-Entry Accounting Business transactions are recorded in a double-entry accounting system that involves the use of debits and credits. This procedure requires that every transaction be recorded two ways: as one or more debit entries and as one or more credit entries. The debit entries must equal the credit entries. Debit is probably the most misunderstood of all accounting terms. Most people think a debit is always a negative. In reality, a debit entry is merely a left-hand entry in a ledger account, while a credit is a right-hand entry. Debits can be positive or negative depending on the account type. For example, a debit entry increases an asset account while it decreases a liability or equity account. Likewise, a credit entry can be either positive or negative. A credit decreases an asset account, but increases a revenue account. Practically speaking, for most nonfinancial managers, it is unimportant to know whether an account is “debited” or “credited.” However, it is extremely important to understand the impact of various transactions on the different accounts (i.e., whether an account is increased or decreased). In the following exercise, your team will check and broaden your understanding of different transactions and their impact on the accounting system.

Financial Ratios There are three categories of financial ratios. Each category is designed to evaluate the financial “health” of the business from a different perspective. It is important to remember that no ratio alone tells the whole picture. As an analyst, you must examine the range of ratios and understand the business in relation to its industry and particular environment in order to make your judgment. The three categories of financial ratios are:
◗
Liquidity—the ability of the organization to generate funds to meet its short-term financial obligations
◗
Leverage—the portion of assets that have been financed through debt vs. equity financing and the organization’s ability to handle the debt that it has
◗
Profitability—the amount of profit generated by the business; the return on the investment by the shareholders or in the business
The following table summarizes the categories and their ratios: Liquidity Ratios
Leverage Ratios
Profitability Ratios
Current Ratio Acid-Test or Quick Ratio
Debt to Equity Debt to Capital
Return on Equity (ROE) Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO)
Interest Coverage
Profit Margin or Return on Sales (ROS)
