commercial republics of Italy.
• Modern accounting came to existence after 1494
the period when “double entry system” was
invented by Luca Pacioli.

because it provides for recording double (two)
aspects of a transaction in such a manner as to
establish equilibrium.

information for the purposes of preparing financial
information.
• It is a complete sequence of accounting procedures that
are repeated in the same order during each accounting
period.
41. The basic procedures/phases in the
accounting cycle are:
1. Identifying and analyzing business transaction.
2. Recording business transaction in a journal.
3. Classifying data by posting transactions from the journal to a
ledger.
4. Preparation of unadjusted trial balance.
5. Adjusting, correcting, and updating recorded data; completion

effects in terms of increase and/or decrease for each
individual asset, liability, owner’s equity, revenue and
expense items, is called an account.
• A group of related accounts that comprise a complete
unit, such as all of the accounts of a specific business
enterprise, is called a ledger.
• An account could be of three types:
1. The T account
2. The two-column account, and
3. The four-column account.
43. T Account
• The T account is the simplest form of an account. It has got its
name from the fact that it resembles the capital letter T.
It has three main parts
The title -for recording the name of the item.
The debit, or left side- a space for recording the increases and/or
decreases in the amount of an item, in terms of money
The credit, or right side-a space for recording the increases
and/or decreases in the amount of an item, in terms of money
The T Account Format
Title
Debit = (Left side) Credit= (Right side)
45. Cont’d
Often Debits and Credits are abbreviated as “Dr”
and “Cr” respectively, based on the Latin terms
“Debere” and “Credere”
Amounts entered on the left side of an account,
regardless of the account title, are called debits or
charges to the account , and the account is said to
be “Debited” or “Charged”
Amounts entered on the right side of an account,
regardless of the account title, are called credits ,
and the account is said to be “Credited”
46. Classification of Accounts
• Accounts are classified into five as: Asset, Liability, owner’s
equity, Revenue, and Expense. According to their common
characteristics the first three accounts are known as Balance
Sheet Accounts and the other two accounts are called Income

word “payable”. Like assets, liabilities are classified in to two as
Current Liabilities and Non – Current Liabilities
Owner’s Equity
• It is a residual claim against the asset of the business after the
total liabilities are deducted. For a corporation, owner’s equity is
frequently called stockholders equity or shareholders equity.
Examples:
• Capital Account- for sole proprietor ship and partnership.
• Capital stock and Retained earnings - for corporation

revenue. Examples of expenses are insurance expense,
depreciation expense, supplies expense, utilities expense, rent
expense etc.
49. Chart of Accounts
• It is a listing of the account titles and account
numbers (codes) being used by a given business.
• In numbering (coding) accounts the first digit
indicates the major division of the ledger in
which the account is placed.
• In the chart of accounts, the asset accounts are
listed according to their liquidity. Liquidity is
the ease with which an asset can be converted in
to cash.
50.
51. Rules of Debit and Credit
– Debit sides signify: Credit sides signify:
Balance sheet accounts:
• Increase in asset accounts - decrease in asset accounts
• Decrease in liability accounts - increase in liability accounts
• Decrease in owner’s equity accounts_ - increase in owner’s equity
account
• except for drawing account (increasing) except for drawing
account(decreasing)
Income statement Accounts:
• Decrease in revenue accounts - increase in revenue
accounts
• Increase in expense accounts - decrease in expense
accounts

initially recorded is known as a journal.
• It is “The book of original entry”.
• The process of recording a business transaction
in the accounting record is called Journalizing.
• Each one set of debits and credits for a
transaction is called a journal entry.
• An entry composed of two or more debits or of
two or more credits is called Compound Journal.
• The Journal commonly used to record all types
of transactions is the General Journal.
54. Cont’d
• In recording a business transaction, the following
three basic questions must be answered:
Which accounts are affected?
Is each account increased or decreased?
Which account is debited & which is credited?
55. Steps in Journalizing a Transaction
1. Record the date
2. Record the Debit
3. Record the credit
4. Explanation
Example: On January 10, 2003 3F Company paid
Birr 6,000 to its employees as a salary for the first
week of the year.
1. Which accounts are affected?

in the ledger and their balance to make sure that the
total of debit balances equals the total of credit
balances.
Uses of a Trial Balance
It provides as a means of discovering errors
It is used to check (proof) the accuracy of the ledger.
It facilitates the preparation of financial statements.
61. Limitations of Trial Balance
• The trial balance amounts are equal doesn’t mean that the
accounting work is free from error. That is, there are errors that
may take place without affecting the trial balance totals.
Some examples are mentioned below:
• Failure to record a transaction or to post a transaction.
• Recording the same erroneous amount for both the debit and
credit parts of a transaction.
• Recording the same transaction more than once.
• Posting part of a transaction to the correct side but the wrong
account.

73. Objective of the chapter
At the end of this chapter the student will be able to:
Define merchandise enterprise
Define merchandise inventory
Differentiate inventory system
Demonstrate accounting for purchase and sale
74. Definitions
• Merchandising Enterprises are profit - seeking
businesses /entities, which are predominantly engaged
in a continuous purchase and resale of merchandises
• Merchandises are those goods that a merchandising
enterprise/company purchases and resale to its
customers.
• The account that shows the cost of merchandise
purchased for resale to the customers is called
Purchases.
• This account is used only for merchandise bought for
resale.
75. Merchandising Inventory Systems
• Merchandising inventory systems are the
ways/mechanisms through which the quantity of goods
sold and on hand at the end of the accounting period
will be determined.
1.The Periodic Inventory System: Under this system, as
the name periodic suggests, the inventory account is
updated only periodically i.e., only at the end of a period.
No detailed records of the inventory on hand are
maintained during the accounting period.
When goods are bought, a temporary purchases account
is debited instead of the inventory account itself.
76. Perpetual Inventory Systems
• Under the perpetual inventory system, the
Merchandise Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold
accounts are continually updated during the accounting
period as purchases, sales, and other inventory
transactions that affect these accounts occur.
• It is continuously records the amount of inventory on
hand (perpetual =continuous).
• Under this system, the merchandise inventory account
is debited or credited every time (goods) are bought or
sold.
• When an item is sold, its cost is recorded in a separate
cost of goods sold account in addition to recording
sales.
77. Accounting for Purchases
• As noted above, a merchandising enterprise uses the
purchase account to record the cost of merchandise
bought for resale during its accounting period.
• Purchases of merchandises are usually made through
one of the following two basic arrangements:
•Cash purchase
•Credit purchase/purchase on account
Example:Almaz retail store made two purchase of
merchandise from XYZ Whole sale Company. Almaz
purchase Birr. 30,000 of merchandise on account on
May 4, & on May21, purchase Birr 20,000 of
merchandise on cash. The required journal entries are:
78. Cont’d
• The arrangements agreed up on by the buyer and the
seller as to when payments for merchandise are to be
made is called credit terms.
• Purchase Discounts: As a means of encouraging
payment before the end of the credit period, the seller
may offer a discount for the early payment of cash.
• Example: Assume the credit term for Almaz retail store
on May 4 purchases are 2/10, n/30, and if the
merchandise is paid on May 14 a 2% discount may be
taken.
Require: recorded under net and gross method on may 4
and 14
79. Cont’d
• Purchase Returns and Allowances: Purchasers may at times
return some merchandise already purchased or may request a
price adjustment from the seller. There are several reasons for
this practice including:
• Inferior quality of goods received.
• Wrong specification.
• Damage caused to goods in shipment etc.
The source document used for recording purchase returns
and allowances is a debit memorandum.
AssumeAlmaz returns Birr.2000 of merchandise to XYZ
Company before paying for the goods, the journal entry
would be:
80. Accounting for Sales
• Sale of merchandise transaction are recorded in a
ledger account identified as “Sales”. This is a revenue
account used to record the sale of merchandise during
an accounting period.
• A sales discount refers to an available discount offered
by the seller to encourage early payments of invoices
by the purchaser. Sales discounts are mirror images of
purchases discounts.
• Sales Returns and Allowances: A seller of
merchandise may receive a return of merchandise that
was sold to a purchaser and may make reductions in the
original sale price.
81. Cont’d
• Example: Assume that on July 21, 2004 ABC
Company received Birr. 2000 cash from sale that was
made on account @ July 12, 2004 to 3k Trading, term
2/10, n/30. Journalize the entry to record:
A. The sale of merchandise on July 12, 2004,
B. Assume that on July 15 a Birr.200 of goods sold on
account is returned by the customers. and
C. The receipt of cash on July 21, both in the books of
ABC Company.
82. Trade Discounts, Transportation Costs, and
Sales Tax.
1. Trade Discounts: is a discount from the list or catalogue
price of commodities offered usually for customers who
purchase in large amounts. The main purpose of a trade
discount offer is to induce purchases of goods by customers
in larger quantities.
When available trade discounts are taken, purchases of
merchandise are recorded net of trade discounts.
There is no requirement to account trade discounts, in a
separate account
Example: Assume on April 15, 1996, Bahir Dar Garments Plc
purchased merchandise on account from Almeda Textile

• Transportation Costs: may be incurred by the buyer
or the seller depending on the term of shipment. The
terms of agreement between the buyer and the seller
could be two types.
1.FOB Shipping Point
2.FOB Destination.
• Example: Assume that X Company purchases merchandise
from Y Company on account Birr for1900, terms, FOB-
Shipping Point to 2/10, n/30 with prepaid transportation cost of
Birr 150 added to the invoice on June 1.
Required: Record the necessary journal entries on June 1&10
(assume X Company has paid the seller @ June 10) for the
buyer and for the seller.

• Sales tax: Government and states commonly levy/impose
various types of taxes. A tax imposed by governmental
units on sale of goods is known as a Sales Tax or VAT.
• Example: Rita Trading sold merchandise on account to
Marathon Motor Engineering Ltd., Birr 25,000 plus a 15 %
sales tax.
Required: record the sale of merchandise
87. Objective of the chapter
• At the end of the chapter the student will able to:
– Describe the characteristics of manufacturing business.
– Differentiate classification of manufacturing costs
– Explain product costing systems
– Prepared chart of accounts for a manufacturing business
– Illustrate recording the flow of costs through production
process
– Prepared financial statements for a manufacturing business
– demonstrate closing entries for a manufacturing business
88. Characteristics of manufacturing business
• A manufacturing business is purchases raw materials,
converts them in to finished good and sells them to
customers (wholesalers, retailers, end users).
• the activity involved and the investment required are
usually complex and extended than the other type of
business organizations.
• A sound cost accounting system is critically essential in
a manufacturing business.
• the manufacturer has three types that are unprocessed
materials, partially complete work in process, and
ready for sale finished goods.
89. Classifications of manufacturing costs
• A cost is a payment of cash or its equivalent or a
commitment to pay cash in the future for the purpose
of generating revenues. A cost provides a benefit that
is used immediately or deferred to a future period of
time.
• Cost is a financial measure of the resource used or
given up to achieve a stated purpose.
• In manufacturing business cost can be classified in to
three.
Manufacturing or nonmanufacturing costs.
Product or period costs.
Fixed or variable costs.
90. 1. Manufacturing or nonmanufacturing costs.
• The total cost of manufacturing a product is referred to as manufacturing
cost, factory cost, or product cost. It includes three cost elements.
i. Direct material costs: those are the cost of the major ingredients that are
incorporated as part of the finished product, used only in the manufacture
of the product, and clearly and easily traceable to the product. The cost of
direct materials includes the net invoice price of the actual quantity used
plus delivery charges.
ii. Direct labor costs: include labor costs of all employees actually working
on materials to convert them into finished goods. It includes only those
labor costs that are clearly traceable to, or readily identifiable with, the
finished product.
iii. Manufacturing over head costs: includes all manufacturing costs except
those costs accounted for as direct material & direct labor. It is costs that
must be incurred but that cannot or will not be traced directly to specific
units produced.
Non manufacturing costs: Are generally classified in to two that are: - selling
& administrative costs
91. Product & period cost
1. Product costs: - costs incurred in the manufacture of
products and assigned to units of the product produced
by a manufacturing company.
• Those costs include costs of DM, DL & MOH.
2. Period cost: - are not assigned to units of products but
are related more closely to periods of time rather than
to products produced.
• Those costs are not traced directly to the manufacture
of a specific product & expensed in the period of
costing system.
92. Product costing system
• There are two principal types of costing systems: -
A. Job costing: - Is a costing system also called job order
costing where the cost of independent and discrete jobs
will be determined. The jobs are most often performed
based on customer order and the cost of each job is
accumulated in a separate record called job cost sheet.
B. Process costing: - Is a costing system where costs are
accumulated in each processing department. This
system is applicable in a factory where similar items
are produced in bulk with almost equal attention.
Example sugar, cement factory … etc.
93. Recording the flow of cost through production
process
• When a manufacturer uses periodic inventory
procedure, the materials purchases, transportation in,
materials purchase returns and allowances, and material
inventory accounts are used in the same manner as they
are used by a merchandiser.
• Example: - During September 1, Ashu manufacturing
company purchased Birr. 50,000 of materials and
supplies on account, on term of FOB shipping point and
paid transportation charge Birr. 2000. On September 10
Ashu manufacturing company returns a material
purchase Birr 5000, because of defective materials.
Required: Record the necessary journal on September,
94. Financial Statements for a Manufacturing Business
• The major difference between a
merchandiser and a manufacturer is in the
types of inventory carried.
95. Financial Statements(cont’d)
• The Statement of Cost of Goods Manufactured: is used to
support the CGS figure on the income statement. The two most
important calculations on this statement are: -
• The cost to manufacture – includes the costs of all resources put
into production during the period. That is = DMC+
DLC+FOHC
• The costs of goods manufactured: - consists of the cost of all
goods completed during the period and CGM=CTM + BWIPI-
EWIPI
• Cost of goods sold includes the cost of goods manufacture plus
the beginning finished goods inventory minus the ending
finished goods inventory.
• And does not appear on the cost of goods manufactured
statement but is show on the income statement.

99. Adjusting and Closing Entries for Manufacturing Company
• Closing entries for a manufacturing company using
periodic inventory procedure are slightly different from
closing entries prepared for a merchandiser.
• The d/c is due to the use of a manufacturing summary
accounts, which records the cost of goods produced during
the period.
It have 5 steps to close manufacturing accounts

105. Objective of the Chapter
At the end of the chapter the students are able to:
• Describe characteristics of the cash
• Describe internal control over cash
• Illustrate bank reconciliation and petty cash
• Describe accounting for receivable and note receivable
• Describe accounting for dishonored not receivable
• Illustrating accounting for uncollectable receivable
106. Accounting for cash
• Cash is a medium of exchange that a bank will accept
at face value and immediate credit to the depositors
account.
An item to be reported as cash it must fulfill the following
criteria’s:
• It should be used as a medium of exchange, i.e. in
settlement of transactions.
• It should be available immediately for the payment of
current obligations.
• It should be free from any contractual restriction that
limits its use in satisfying debts
107. Cash
Included in Cash
• Coins and currency
• Checking accounts
• Savings accounts
• Negotiable checks
• Bank drafts
Excluded from Cash
• Certificates of deposit
• Bank overdrafts
• Postdated checks
• Travel advances
• Postage stamps
108. Internal Control over Cash
An internal control system is a set of policies and procedures
designed to protect assets, provide accurate accounting records
and evaluate performances.
A sound internal control system for cash increases the likely
hood that the reported values for cash are accurate.
Internal control over cash should include the following procedures:
The individuals who receive cash should not also pay cash
The individuals who handle cash should not access accounting
records
Cash receipts are immediately recorded and deposited and are
not used directly to make payments.
Disbursements are made by serially numbered checks
Bank accounts are reconciled monthly.
109. Cont’d
The following are the most common elements of
internal control over cash:
Maintaining a bank account system,
Maintaining a petty cash fund,
A voucher system,
Change fund, and
Cash short and over.
110. Control over cash through a bank account
• One of the major devises/tools for control over cash is
maintaining a bank account. The forms used by a business in
connection with a bank account are:
1.Signature Card
2.Deposit Ticket
3.Checks: A check is a written instrument signed by the depositor,
ordering the bank to pay a certain sum of money to the order of
the designated person. There are 3 parties in a check transaction:
the Drawer, the one who signs the check;
the Drawee, the bank on which the check is drawn; and
the Payee, the one to whose order the check is drawn.
4. Records of checks drawn: A memorandum record of the basic
details of a check should be prepared at the time the check is
written.
111. Cont’d
A bank account is one of the most important means of controlling
cash that provide several advantages such as:
• Cash is physically protected by the bank,
• A separate record of cash is maintained by the bank, and
• Customers may remit payments directly to the bank.
monthly statements (reports) received from the bank are called
bank statements.
Bank Reconciliation: It is a schedule prepared by
the depositor to bring the balance shown in the
bank statement and the balance shown in the
depositor’s accounting record into agreement.
112. Bank Reconciliation
• Outstanding checks
• Deposits in transit
• Charges made by the
bank
• Deposits made directly
by the bank
• Errors
Causes of the
difference between
the cash balance
and the company’s
bank statement
balance.
113. Illustration:
The January bank statement sent by Awash Bank to ABC Company shows Birr
5,000.17 assume also that on January 31, 2012, the Cash account of ABC Company
shows a balance of Birr 4,262.83. The accountant of ABC Company has identified the
following items:
1. A deposit of Birr 410.90 made after banking hours on Jan. 31 does not appear on
the bank statement.
2. Two checks issued in January have not yet been paid by the bank:
Check No. 301 Birr 110.25
Check No. 342 607.50
3. A credit memorandum was included in the bank statement, which was for proceeds
from collection of a non-interest bearing note receivable to ABC Company Birr
524.74.
4. Two debit memorandums accompanied the bank statement, a check of Birr 50.25
received from a customer ,XYZ Company & deposited by ABC Company was
charged back as NSF & service charge by the bank for the month January amounts
Birr 17.00
5. Check No. 305 was issued by ABC Company for payment of telephone expense in
the amount of Birr 85 but was erroneously recorded in the cash payments journal as
Birr 58.
Required: prepare and record January 31 bank reconciliation for ABC Company
114. Petty cash fund
• Petty cash fund, which is part of the total cash
balance, is used to handle many types of small
payments such as employee transportation costs,
purchase of office supplies, purchase of postage
stamps, and delivery charges.
• Establishment of Petty Cash fund: To establish
a petty cash fund a check is issued to a bank.
• Replenishment of Petty Cash fund: When the
fund runs low or at the end of the company’s
accounting period, a check is issued to reimburse
the fund for the expenditures made during the
period.
115. Cont’d
Illustration:
Assume on January 1, 2004 Selam Company established a petty cash fund
for Birr 400. At the end of the month count of cash on hand indicate
that Birr 81.60 cash remained in the fund. Sorting of petty cash
receipts disclosed that the following expenditures were made from the
fund.
Postage expenses………………………………….Birr 139.60
Office supplies…………………………………….… 72.75
Miscellaneous expenses…………………………. 104.05
Total………………………………………………… 316.40
Required: -Prepare the necessary entries to record the petty cash
transaction for the month of January, 2004
116. cont’d
• Voucher System: One method to control cash
disbursements is a voucher system. A voucher is a
special form, which contains relevant data about a
liability and its payment.
• Change Fund: is part of the total cash balance, that
is used for facilitating business transaction. The
issuance of a check to establish a change fund is
recorded by debiting cash on hand/change fund
and crediting cash in bank account.
117. Accounting For Receivables
Definition and Classification of Receivables
• Receivables are claims held against customers and others
for money, goods, or services.
• For financial statement purposes, companies classify
receivables as either current (short-term) or noncurrent
(long-term).
• Based on source, Receivables can be broadly classified
into Trade Receivables and Non-trade Receivables.
• Based on formality and Based on the above broad
classification, receivables can be further classified into
Account Receivable and Notes Receivables.
118. Characteristics of Notes Receivable
• Due Date: the date a note is to be paid is
called the Due Date or Maturity date.
• Interest: is the cost of borrowing money for
the borrower.
• Maturity Value: is the amount that is due at
the maturity or due date.
119. Accounting for notes receivable
• Notes Receivables are usually recorded in a single note
Receivable account to simplify record keeping.
• Example: assume that on Jannuary-10, Nile Co. sales
merchandise on account to Tana Co. and receive a Br.
5,000, 90-day, 12% promissory note.
• Required:
determine due date, interest and maturity value
Record on January l and on due date
Record if the company is dishonored on due date
120. End-Of-Period interest Adjustment
• When notes receivable are outstanding at the end of
an accounting period, accrued interest is computed
and recorded. For example, on December 20, 20x1,
Nile Co. accepted a Br. 2000, 60-day, 12% note from
a customer in granting an extension of a past-due
account. Assuming that the accounting period ends on
Dec. 31.
• Required: record the receipt of the note, accrued
interest, and payment of the note at maturity.
121. Converting Receivables to cash before Maturity
Converting receivable is usually done either (1) by selling
them, or (2) by using them as security for a loan
Step 1 – Determine the maturity date & maturity value.
Step 2 – Determine the Bank Discount (Bank discount is an interest
that is charged by the bank). Bank Discount = MV X DR X DP
Step 3- Determine proceed= MV – D
Step 4 – Record the necessary journal entry at the date of discount.
122. Cont’d
Example: assume that a 90-day, 12%, Br. 20,000
N/R from Hiwot Co. dated Jan.1, 20x2 is
discounted at the payee’s bank on February 12,
20x2 at the discount rate of 15%.
• Required: record discounting of note on bank
and assume that the maker, Hiwot Co, dishonored
the above discounted note at maturity. The bank
charges a protest fee of Br. 25.
123. Accounting for uncollectible receivables
• There are two methods of accounting for
uncollectible receivables.
1. allowance method, which provides an expense
for uncollectible receivables in advance of their
write-off (removal from the ledger) and
2. direct write-off method, which recognizes the
expense only when accounts receivable are
judged to be worthless.
124. Cont’d
Example: Assume that G. Company has total
accounts receivable of Br. 350,000 at the end of
the year, and is in process of preparing a
balance sheet and estimates that Br.
21,700 of this amount may ultimately prove to
be uncollectible.
130. Financing Activities
• Borrowing creates liabilities
– Bank loans
– Debt securities
– Goods on credit or payables
• Selling stock creates
stockholders’ equity
131. Investing Activities
• Obtaining resources or
assets to operate the
business
– Land
– Buildings
– Vehicles
– Computers
– Furniture
132. Operating Activities
• Primary activity of business
– Selling goods
– Providing services
– Manufacturing
– Cost of Sales
– Advertising
– Paying employees
– Paying utilities
133. Operating Activities
• Revenue is generated from sales or
services
• Expenses are the cost of doing business
• If revenue > expense = Net Income
• If revenue < expense = Net Loss!
