Accounting Process

  • Gathering Source Documents: The process starts by creating a record of the transaction which is a business event that has a monetary value.
  • Analyzing Business Transactions: The key criteria for deciding whether to record a transaction are exchange of values, at least two parties involved, and the transaction must be expressed in monetary terms.
  • Journalizing: When a transaction is recognized as needing to be recorded, it must be journalized - recorded as a double-entry into the Journal, which is the book of original entry.
  • Posting: The next step in the process is to transfer the records from the Journal to the Ledger.
  • Preparation of Worksheet: This is a tool that helps adjust information and prepare financial statements to reflect the correct financial position of the business.
  • Journalizing and Posting of Adjustments: This step includes adjusting for accrued income and expenses as well as deferrals.
    • Accruals: Adjusting for income that has been earned but not collected yet.
    • Deferrals: Adjusting for income that has been collected but not yet earned.
  • Adjustment for Depreciation Expense: This adjustment is based on the useful life of an asset.
    • Depreciation Expense: Depreciable Cost * / Estimated Useful Life.
  • Adjusting for Bad Debts: Adjusting for doubtful accounts receivable.
    • Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Based on the % of sales or the % of accounts receivable.
