WEEK 2: Measuring & Evaluating Financial Position & Performance
1. Introduction Every commercial entity engages in transactions with other parties. Woolworths buys
products from suppliers, employs shop assistants, builds new stores, sells groceries and
each individual transaction is recorded and reported in the Balance Sheet. Individual
retail stores would report their profitability and the costs of running each store
categorising their expenses so management are fully informed of the cost involved in
running each service or retail store. They will even have information about the individual
products they sell through internal reporting and cost profit sales analysis. In this lecture
we will examine the communication of financial information in the Income Statement
through to the Balance Sheet.
Learning objectives At the end of this topic, you should be able to:
Understand the terms, format and function of the Balance Sheet & the Income Statement
Identify the components of financial statements Prepare your own simple Balance Sheet & Income Statement Describe the relationship between the balance sheet and the income statement Understand the implications of the decision to record expenditure as an asset or as
an expense Understand the differences between cash profit and accrual profit

-
Assets - Recognition
Definition:
Future economic benefits (FEB)useful for business now and in future Legal ownership and control
Most assets typically owned BUT ownership is not a precondition Past transaction or other events
purchase made of asset, contract signed
A t iti it i Asset recognition criteria:
An asset should be recognised when and only when:a. it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the item
will flow to the entity, and
b. the item has a cost or value that can be measured with reliability.
Current assets
These are: cash and cash equivalents; or assets expected to be realised in,
or held for sale or consumption in, the normal course of the entitys operating cycle; orassets held primarily for trading assets held primarily for trading and expected to be realised within 12 months after the end of the last financial period.
-
Non-current assets
Non current assets (NCA) Non-current assets (NCA) are all assets other than current assets
Examples:
property, plant and equipment
long term investments
Do they meet the definition requirements? future economic benefit? control? Past event?
Are these assets ?
economic benefit? control? Past event?
Cash in the bank? Land and Buildings?
WHAT IF?
WHAT IF?What if you had a bank overdraft would that also be an
asset?
What if the land or buildings changed in value does this effect the balance sheet?
-
Is it a cost or value???
What are the possible ways in which an asset could be measured?
How much did it cost to purchase? - Historical cost
How much could you sell it for? - Realizable value
How much money could you make by using it in your business? Present valuebusiness? - Present value
What would it cost to purchase or replace today? Current cost
Historic Cost Rule: All assets are initially recorded at their historical cost /original cost (what it cost to acquire)

Shareholders Equity is The residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all its liabilities
Total liabilities 80,000$ Shareholders' Equity: Contributed capital 150,000 Retained earnings 70,000 Total 300,000$
-
Equity
Equity is the residual interest in the assets of theinterest in the assets of the entity after deduction of its liabilities (SE A - L)
Common components:
Share capitalShare capitalRetained profits
Expanding the Accounting equation
Rearranging the equation
Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders Equity
can be expressed as:
Assets - Liabilities = Shareholders Equity
Net Assets = Shareholder (Owners) Equity
Now we will begin to explore the measurement of changes in shareholder wealth (or changes in Net Assets).
-
The Accounting Equation
Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders Equity
$300 000 = $80 000 + $220 000

Your own Balance Sheet!
Prepare your own Personal Balance Sheet. Use the correct format, write a title, and date, i.e. Student Xs
Balance Sheet as at 29 February 2012.
Please take a black sheet of paper or use your laptop!
Lets start with listing your assets: what do you own!
You may like to use categories i.e. clothing; books; CD collection; phone; ipod; camera; computer; cash etcEstimate a value based on historical cost for each item.Estimate a value based on historical cost for each item.
Record the amount beside the items you listed. For this exercise you dont need to use your real actual
items if you do not wish to you can make this up. Classify the assets into: Current - items you will keep/use within 12 months; Non-Current - items which you will have for longer than 12 mths

Your own personal Balance Sheet!Continued
Now list your liabilities what you owe!
This may include money you need to repay i.e. a loan, rent, phone bill, any bill you have received but not yet paid.
Make a heading on you Balance Sheet and list the items with values, split into Current & Non Current as demonstrated in our simple example.
The difference between your assets & your liabilities is your residue, basically it is your Owners Equity (capital).
We will look at your Income Statement a little later in this session to demonstrate the difference between the BS & IS.

Income Statement
N t l A t f l f h di t t
Explanation of income statement accounts:
Net sales Amount of sales of merchandise to customers, less the amount of customer returns of merchandise
Cost of goods sold Represents the total cost of merchandise removed from inventory and delivered to customers as a result of sales
Gross profit Difference between net sales and cost of goods sold; Represents the seller's maximum amount of "cushion" from which all other expenses of the business must be met before it is possible to have net profit
Income Statement
Account ExplanationSelling general and Represent the operating expenses of the entity

Your personal Income Statement
Let us prepare your personal Income Statement a summary of your income and expenses.
Often you prepare something like this for your tax return, or applying for a bank loan or other form of credit.
Companies prepare these annually & they prepare monthly ones for operational reasons.
Prepare the IS in the correct format i e title & date Prepare the IS in the correct format, i.e. title & date.
List you income sources first,
Then list your expenses. Lets prepare for the month so you get the idea of what you are doing and how it is different from the Balance Sheet.
Your Income Statement may look something like this:

6. Capitalise v. expenseA couple of interesting issues
Has the business bought an asset in the following situations?
Spend $50,000 cash for new plant equipment? Borrow $50,000 to buy new plant equipment? Spend $12,000 on 12 months rent in advance? Spend $3,000,000 on research to develop a drug to cure
hangovers?
Spend $500 on 3 months of photocopy ink? Pay $4,000 for telephone calls this month?
Capitalize v. expense why is this important???
It can make a large It can make a large difference!!

7. Cash v accrual profit
The earning of a revenue is not necessarily accompanied by an inflow of cashaccompanied by an inflow of cash.
The incurrence of an expense is not necessarily accompanied by an outflow of cash
Accrual profit is not the same as cash profit.
A Key objective for this session: begin to understand the Accrual concept***
Cash sales $100
$ Credit sales $100
Total sales =
Total cash inflow at the time of sales =

A Key objective for this session: begin to understand the Accrual concept***
Threshold Concept think about the difference between a business operating on a cash accounting bases & one p g gusing accrual accounting!
What do we mean by this ???? What impact would this have on the figures in the Balance
Sheet and Income Statement????
Use the information given below to answer the following 2 questions.
During 2009, a company makes credit sales of $500 000, f hi h $375 000 i ll t d t d It $200
The threshold concept:Cash v Accrual Profit
of which $375 000 is collected at year-end. It pays $200 000 in expenses and owes $25 000 for electricity used
