21、TYINCREASEDECREASE(ii).Qualitative Characteristics of Accounting Informationl1.Primary qualities are Relevance and Reliability of accounting information.l lRelevance of informationRelevance of information means“information c capable of making a difference in a decision context.”lThe information must

22、 be timely to be relevant.lThe information should have predictive value:(be helpful in making predictions about ultimate outcomes of past,present and future events).lThe information should have feedback value(helps users to confirm prior expectations.)lInformation is reliable,when it can be relied o

23、n to represent the true,underlying situation.lTo be reliable,information must be:1*verifiable2 *faithful,and3*neutrall2.Secondary characteristics are:comparability and consistency of reported information.lFor information to be comparable,it must be:omparable,it must be:1)measured and reported in a s

24、imilar manner for different enterprises.2)useful in the allocation of resources to the areas of greatest benefit.3)useful to users in identifying real differences between enterprises.lAccounting information is consistent,if the same accounting principles are applied in a similar manner from one peri

25、od to the next.lAccounting principles may be changed,if the change results in better reporting.lIf principles are changed,the justification for,and the nature and effect of the change,must be disclosed.lLevel III.Recognition and Measurement Criterial(I).Environmental Assumptions 1.Economic Entity As

26、sumption An economic entity can be any organization or unit in society.The business is distinct from:(1)its owners and(2)all other economic entities.A business enterprise may be organized as solo proprietorship,partnership and corporation.Solo-proprietorshiplA business owned by one person.lThe owner

27、 is often the manager/operator of the business.lSmall service-type businesses or small retail stores.Solo-proprietorshiplUsually only a limited amount of money(capital)is necessary to start in business,and the owner receives any profits,suffers any losses,and is personally liable for all debts of th

28、e business.PartnershiplWhen a business is owned by two or more persons(partners).lWhen a partnership is created,there should be an agreement setting forth such terms as initial investment of each partner,duties of each partner,division of profits or losses,and settlement to be made upon death or wit

29、hdrawal of a partner.PartnershiplEach partner generally has unlimited personal liability for the debts of the partnership.lThe partnership affairs must be kept separate from the personal activities of the partners.CorporationlA business organized as a separate legal entity under state corporation la

30、w and its ownership divided into transferable shares of stock is called a corporation.lThe holders of the shares enjoy limited liability;they are not personally liable for the debts of the corporate entity.2.Going Concern AssumptionlThe business is assumed to continue indefinitely unless terminated

31、by owners.lThe basis of recording financial elements is historical accounting.lLiquidation accounting(based on liquidation values)is not followed unless so indicated.3.Monetary Unit(Unit Of Measurement)lMoney is the common unit of measure of economic transactions.lUse of a monetary unit is relevant,

32、and simple to understand.4.Time Period Assumption(to be explained in Chapter 2)2222(iii).Implementation Principles1.Cost Principle(Historical Cost Principle)lTransaction is recorded at its acquisition price.lIt is not changed to reflect market price.lThe principle applies to assets and liabilities.l

33、Users of financial statements may find current fair value information to be useful as well.lA“mixed attribute”system reports historical cost,fair value,and lower of cost or market values applied to inventory valuation(to be explained in Chapter 7).2.Revenue Recognition PrinciplelRevenue is recognize

34、d when it is earned or realizable,the sellers major task has completed and the amount can be objectively determined.24243.The Matching PrincipleExpenses in one period are matched to revenues of the same period so as to determine the profit in the cureent period appropriately.4.The Full Disclosure Pr

35、incipleFinancial statements must report what a reasonable person would need to know to make an informed decision.Disclosure may be made:within the body of the financial statements,as notes to those statements,or as supplementary information.Implementation Constraints 1.Cost-Benefit Relationship *The

36、 cost of providing information should not outweigh the benefit derived.*Costs and benefits are not always obvious or quantifiable.*Sound judgment must be used in providing information.2.Materiality refers to an items importance to a firms overall financial operations.3.Industry PracticeslThe nature

37、of some industries may sometimes require departures from basic accounting theory.lIf application of accounting theory results in statements that are not comparable or consistent,then industry practices must examined for possible explanations.4.Conservatism suggests that the preparer,when in doubt,ch

38、oose a conservative solution.This solution will be least likely to overstate assets and income.Conservatism does not suggest that net assets or net income be deliberately understated.1.4 The Accounting Equation And Transactions1.4 The Accounting Equation And TransactionsThe Accounting Equation:Asset
