What Is It

Definition of Accounting

It is a systematic process of identifying, recording, measuring, classifying,


verifying, summarizing, interpreting and communicating financial information. It
reveals profit or loss for a given period, and the value and nature of a firm's assets,
liabilities and owners' equity.
In a practical sense, the main objective of financial accounting is to accurately
prepare an organization's financial accounts for a specific period, otherwise known as
financial statements.
Example, if the company's transactions are being tracked then Ms. Ken
(investor), will know if the money she invested is still there.

P100,000 (initial investment)


P70,000 (used to buy printers and pay the bills)
P30,000 (balance cash left)
P50,000 (collection from costumers (1month)
P30,000+ P50,000= 80,000 overall balance cash

Accounting is commonly called the “Language of Business” wherein it


delivers financial information to different users through financial statements.

Example:

Ms. Sweet started a business. She invested P100,000 (personal money).


After one month Ms. Sweet wanted to know how much the business made, and if the
money she invested is still there.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) defines


accounting as:
“An art of recording, classifying and summarizing in a significant manner and
in terms of money transaction and events which are in part at least of financial
character, and interpreting the result thereof.”

Page | 10
This definition will provide a better understanding of accounting in terms of
the following:

>Accounting is considered an art and a science;


>Accounting involves interconnected phases;

2
>Accounting is concerned with transactions and events having financial
character;
>In accounting, business transactions are expressed in terms of money; and
>Accounting interprets the result of financial statement.

Accounting provides answers to the following questions:


-How much income does the company make?
-How much does the company owe to the creditors?
-Is this a good investment?

Accounting information gives business owners the chance to analyze the


overall efficiency and effectiveness of their business operations.

Nature of Accounting

According to Accounting Theory:


http://accountingtheory.weebly.com/nature-and-scope-of-acc
ounting.html): "Accounting is a systematic recording of
financial transactions and the presentation of the related
information to appropriate persons."

Based on this definition we can derive the following basic features of accounting:

Accounting is a service activity.


Accounting provides assistance to decision makers by providing them financial
reports that will guide them in coming up with sound decisions.

Accounting is a process.
A process refers to the method of performing any specific job step by step
according to the objectives or targets. Accounting is identified as a process, as it
performs the specific task of collecting, processing and communicating financial
information. In doing so, it follows some definite steps like the collection, recording,
classification, summarization, finalization, and reporting of financial data.

Accounting is both an art and a discipline.


Accounting is the art of recording, classifying, summarizing and finalizing financial
data. The word „art‟ refers to the way something is performed. It is behavioral
knowledge involving a certain creativity and skill to help us attain some specific
Page | 11
objectives. Accounting is a systematic method consisting of definite techniques and
its proper application requires skill and expertise. So by nature, accounting is an art.
And because it follows certain standards and professional ethics, it is also a
discipline.

3
Accounting deals with financial information and transactions.
Accounting records financial transactions and data, classify these and finalize
their results given for a specified period of time, as needed by their users. At every
stage, from start to finish, accounting deals with financial information and financial
information only. It does not deal with non-monetary or non-financial aspects of such
information.
Accounting is an information system.
Accounting is recognized and characterized as a storehouse of information. As a
service function, it collects processes and communicates financial information of any
entity. This discipline of knowledge has evolved to meet the need for financial
information as required by various interested groups.

History of Accounting

Accounting is as old as civilization itself. It has


evolved in response to various social and economic
needs of men. Accounting started as a simple recording
of repetitive exchanges. The history of accounting is
often seen as indistinguishable from the history of
finance and business. Following is the evolution of
accounting:

The Cradle of Civilization


Around 3600 B.C., record-keeping was already
common from Mesopotamia, China and India to Central and South America. The
oldest evidence of this practice was the “clay tablet” of Mesopotamia which dealt
with commercial transactions at the time such as listing of accounts receivable and
accounts payable.

14th Century - Double-Entry Bookkeeping


The most important event in accounting history is generally considered to be
the dissemination of double entry bookkeeping by Luca Pacioli („The Father of
Accounting‟) in 14th century Italy. Pacioli was much revered in his day, and was a
friend and contemporary of Leonardo da Vinci. The Italians of the 14th to 16 th
centuries are widely acknowledged as the fathers of modern accounting and were the
first to commonly use Arabic numerals, rather than Roman, for tracking business
accounts. Luca Pacioli wrote Summa de Arithmetica, the first book published that
contained a detailed chapter on double-entry bookkeeping.
Page | 12
French Revolution (1700s)
The thorough study of accounting and development of accounting theory
began during this period. Social upheavals affecting government, finances, laws,
customs and business had greatly influenced the development of accounting.

4
The Industrial Revolution (1760-1830)
Mass production and the great importance of fixed assets were given
attention during this period.

19th Century – The Beginnings of Modern Accounting in Europe and America


The modern, formal accounting profession emerged in Scotland in 1854
when Queen Victoria granted a Royal Charter to the Institute of Accountants in
Glasgow, creating the profession of the Chartered Accountant (CA). In the late 1800s,
chartered accountants from Scotland and Britain came to the U.S. to audit British
investments. Some of these accountants stayed in the U.S., setting up accounting
practices and becoming the origins of several U.S. accounting firms. The first national
U.S. accounting society was set up in 1887. The American Association of Public
Accountants was the forerunner to the current American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA).
In this period rapid changes in accounting practice and reports were made.
Accounting standards to be observed by accounting professionals were promulgated.
Notable practices such as mergers, acquisitions and growth of multinational
corporations were developed. A merger is when one company takes over all the
operations of another business entity resulting in the dissolution of another business.
Businesses expanded by acquiring other companies. These types of transactions
have challenged accounting professionals to develop new standards that will address
accounting issues related to these business combinations.

The Present - The Development of


Modern Accounting Standards and
Commerce
The accounting profession in the
20th century developed around state
requirements for financial statement audits.
Beyond the industry's self-regulation, the
government also sets accounting standards,
through laws and agencies such as the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
As economies worldwide continued to globalize, accounting regulatory bodies
required accounting practitioners to observe International Accounting Standards. This

Page | 13
is to assure transparency and reliability, and to obtain greater confidence on
accounting information used by global investors.
Nowadays, investors seek investment opportunities all over the world. To
remain competitive, businesses everywhere feel the need to operate globally. The
trend now for accounting professionals is to observe one single set of global
accounting standards in order to have greater transparency and comparability of
financial data across borders.

Accounting
- is the language employed to communicate financial information of a concern to
such parties.

Slavin and Reynolds


Accounting is the discipline that provides information on which external and
internal users of the information may base decisions that result in the allocation of
economic resources in society.

Who uses accounting data or information?

There are two broad categories of users of financial information: internal and
external users.

Page | 19
INTERNAL USERS
Internal users of accounting information are those
individuals inside a company who plan, organize, and run the
business. These users are directly involved in managing and
operating the business. These include marketing managers,
production supervisors, finance directors, company officers and
owners.

What information will user need that can be answered by


accounting?

Internal users (Primary Users) of accounting information include


the following:

11
Management
Information need: income/earnings for the period, sales, available cash, production
cost
Decisions supported: analyze the organization's performance and position, and take
appropriate measures to improve the company results, sufficiency of cash to pay
dividends to stockholders; pricing decisions

Employees
Information need: profit for the period, salaries paid to employees
Decisions supported: job security, consider staying in the employ of the company or
look for other employment opportunities

Owners/Investors/Stockholders
Information need: profit or income for the period, resources or assets of the
business, liabilities of the business
Decisions supported: considerations regarding additional investment, expanding the
business, borrowing funds to support any expansion plans.
Accounting information is presented to internal users usually in the form of
management accounts, budgets, forecasts and financial statements. This information
will support whatever decision of the internal users.

EXTERNAL USERS
External users are individuals and organizations
outside a company who want financial information
about the company. These users are not directly
involved in managing and operating the business.
The two most common types of external users are
potential investors and creditors.
Potential Investors use accounting information to
make decisions to buy shares of a company.
Creditors (such as suppliers and bankers) use
Page | 20
accounting information to evaluate the risks of granting credit or lending money. Also
included as external users are government regulatory agencies such as Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC), Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), Department of
Labor and Employment (DOLE), Social Security System (SSS), and Local
Government Units (LGUs).

External users (Secondary Users) of accounting information include the following:

Creditors: for determining the credit worthiness of an organization. Terms of credit


are set by creditors according to the assessment of their customers'
financial health. Creditors include suppliers as well as lenders of finance
such as banks.

12
Tax Authorities (BIR): for determining the credibility of the tax returns filed on behalf
of a company.

Investors: for analyzing the feasibility of investing in a company. Investors want to


make sure they can earn a reasonable return on their investment
before they commit any financial resources to a company.

Customers: for assessing the financial position of its suppliers which is necessary for
them to maintain a stable source of supply in the long term.

Regulatory Authorities (SEC, DOLE): for ensuring that a company's disclosure of


accounting information is in accordance with the rules and regulations set
in order to protect the interests of the stakeholders who rely on such
information in forming their decisions.
Types of Information needed by each Group of Users

Accounting information includes both financial (quantitative) and non-financial


(qualitative) information used by the decision maker.
*Qualitative analysis-means looking at the intangibles
*Quantitative analysis- means looking at the actual
numbers.
*Comprehensive analysis- should include looking at
both qualitative and quantitative factors that would
impact decision maker.

SUMMARY OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN


INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL USERS

Internal users of accounting information are those


who are involved in planning, organizing and running

Page | 21
the business. They need more detailed information on a timely basis in order to
support their decisions. Examples of these internal users are managers, employees
and owners.

The external users of accounting information are those individuals or


organizations outside a company who are interested in its financial information.
Examples of these external users are potential investors, suppliers and government
agencies.
