From the

Authors

Dear Student,

Why This Course? Remember your biology course in high school? Did you haveone of those “invisible man” models (or maybe something more high-tech than that)that gave you the opportunity to look “inside” the human body? This accountingcourse offers something similar: To understand a business, you have to understand thefinancial insides of a business organization. An accounting course will help you under-stand the essential financial components of businesses. Whether you are looking at alarge multinational company like Microsoft or Starbucks or a single-owner softwareconsulting business or coffee shop, knowing the fundamentals of accounting will helpyou understand what is happening. As an employee, a manager, an investor, a businessowner, or a director of your own personal finances—any of which roles you will have atsome point in your life—you will be much the wiser for having taken this course.

Why This Book? Hundreds of thousands of students have used this textbook. Yourinstructor has chosen it for you because of its trusted reputation. The authors have worked hard to keep the book fresh, timely, and accurate.

This textbook contains features to help you learn best, whatever your learning style. Tounderstand what your learning style is, spend about ten minutes to take the learningstyle quiz at the book’s companion website. Then, look at page vii for how you canapply an understanding of your learning style to this course. When you know moreabout your own learning style, browse through the Student Owner’s Manual on pagesviii–xi. It shows you the main features you will find in this textbook and explains theirpurpose.

How To Succeed? We’ve asked many students and many instructors whether thereis a secret for success in this course. The nearly unanimous answer turns out to be notmuch of a secret: “Do the homework.” This is one course where doing is learning, andthe more time you spend on the homework assignments—using the various toolsthat this textbook provides—the more likely you are to learn the essential concepts,techniques, and methods of accounting. Besides the textbook itself, the book’scompanion website offers various support resources.

Good luck in this course. We hope you enjoy the experience and that you put to gooduse throughout a lifetime of success the knowledge you obtain in this course. We aresure you will not be disappointed.

Ethics Note

A report released by Fannie Mae’sboard of directors stated that improper adjusting entries at the mortgage-fi nance company resulted in delayed recognition of expenses caused by interest-rate changes. The motivation for such accounting apparently was the desire to hit earnings estimates.


International Note

Rules for accounting for specifi c events sometimes differ across countries. For example, European companies rely less on historical cost and more on fair value than U.S. companies. Despite the differences, the double-entry accounting system is the basis of accounting systems worldwide.

I S ONVESTOR II S GNSIGHTHow to Read Stock Quotes

Organized exchanges trade the stock of publicly held companies at dollar prices per share

established by the interaction between buyers and sellers. For each listed security, the fi nan-

cial press reports the high and low prices of the stock during the year, the total volume of stock

traded on a given day, the high and low prices for the day, and the closing market price, with the net

change for the day. Nike is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Here is a recent listing for Nike:

52 Weeks

Stock High Low Volume High Low Close Net Change

Nike 78.55 48.76 5,375,651 72.44 69.78 70.61 21.69

These numbers indicate the following: The high and low market prices for the last 52 weeks have

been $78.55 and $48.76. The trading volume for the day was 5,375,651 shares. The high, low, and

closing prices for that date were $72.44, $69.78, and $70.61, respectively. The net change for the

day was a decrease of $1.69 per share.

For stocks traded on organized exchanges, how are the dollar prices per share established?

What factors might influence the price of shares in the marketplace? (See page 629.)?

AACCOU GCCOUNTINGAAC OSSCROSS THEOOO G ORGANIZATIONWall Street No Friend of Facebook

In the 1990s, it was the dream of every young technology entrepreneur to start a

company and do an initial public offering (IPO), that is, list company shares on a

stock exchange. It seemed like there was a never-ending supply of 20-something

year-old technology entrepreneurs that made millions doing IPOs of companies that never made

a profit and eventually failed. In sharp contrast to this is Mark Zuckerberg, the 25-year-old

founder and CEO of Facebook. If Facebook did an IPO, he would make billions of dollars. But, he

is in no hurry to go public. Because his company doesn’t need to invest in factories, distribution

systems, or even marketing, it doesn’t need to raise a lot of cash. Also, by not going public,

Zuckerberg has more control over the direction of the company. Right now, he and the other

founders don’t have to answer to outside shareholders, who might be more concerned about short-

term investment horizons rather than long-term goals. In addition, publicly traded companies

face many more financial reporting disclosure requirements.

Source: Jessica E. Vascellaro, “Facebook CEO in No Rush to ‘Friend’ Wall Street,” Wall Street Journal Online(March 4, 2010).

Why has Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO and founder of Facebook, delayed taking his

company’s shares public through an initial public offering (IPO)? (See page 629.)?

Bernie Ebbers was the founder and CEO of the phone company WorldCom. The company engaged in a series of increasingly large, debt-financed acquisitions of other companies. These acquisitions made the company grow quickly, which made the stock price increase dramatically. However, because the acquired companies all had different accounting systems, WorldCom’s financial records were a mess. When WorldCom’s performance started to flatten out, Bernie coerced WorldCom’s accountants to engage in a number of fraudulent activities to make net income look better than it really was and thus prop up the stock price. One of these frauds involved treating $7 billion of line costs as capital expenditures. The line costs, which were rental fees paid to other phone companies to use their phone lines, had always been properly expensed in previous years. Capitalization delayed expense recognition to future periods and thus boosted current-period profi ts.

Total take: $7 billion

THE MISSING CONTROLS

Documentation procedures. The company’s accounting system was a disorganized collection of non-integrated systems, which resulted from a series of corporate acquisitions. Top management took advantage of this disorganization to conceal its fraudulent activities.

Independent internal verifi cation. A fraud of this size should have been detected by a routine comparison of the actual physical assets with the list of physical assets shown in the accounting records.

Decision Making Across the OrganizationBYP20-1 Burgio Parts Company uses a job order cost system. For a number of months, there has been

an ongoing rift between the sales department and the production department concerning a special-order

product, TC-1. TC-1 is a seasonal product that is manufactured in batches of 1,000 units. TC-1 is sold at

cost plus a markup of 40% of cost.

Ethics CaseBYP3-6 Bluestem Company is a pesticide manufacturer. Its sales declined greatly this year due to the

passage of legislation outlawing the sale of several of Bluestem’s chemical pesticides. In the coming year,

Bluestem will have environmentally safe and competitive chemicals to replace these discontinued prod-

ucts. Sales in the next year are expected to greatly exceed any prior year’s. The decline in sales and profi ts

appears to be a one-year aberration. But even so, the company president fears a large dip in the current

year’s profits. He believes that such a dip could cause a significant drop in the market price of Bluestem’s

stock and make the company a takeover target.

FASB Codification Activity offers you theopportunity to use this online system,

which contains all the authoritative literaturerelated to a particular topic.

FASB Codifi cation ActivityBYP3-8 If your school has a subscription to the FASB Codifi cation, go to http://aaahq.org/asclogin.cfm to log in and prepare responses to the following.

Instructions

Access the glossary (“Master Glossary”) to answer the following.

(a) What is the definition of revenue?

(b) What is the definition of compensation?


Real World Focus problems require you toapply techniques and concepts learned inthe chapter to specific situations faced by

actual companies.

Real-World FocusBYP19-3 Anchor Glass Container Corporation, the third largest manufacturer of glass containers in the

United States, supplies beverage and food producers and consumer products manufacturers nationwide.

Parent company Consumers Packaging Inc. (Toronto Stock Exchange: CGC) is a leading international

designer and manufacturer of glass containers.

The following management discussion appeared in a recent annual report of Anchor Glass.


Communication Activity problemshelp you to apply and practice businesscommunication skills.

Communication ActivityBYP3-5 In reviewing the accounts of Keri Ann Co. at the end of the year, you discover that adjusting

entries have not been made.


All About You activities are designed toget you thinking and talking about howaccounting impacts your personal life.

“All About You” ActivityBYP3-7 Companies must report or disclose in their financial statements information about all liabilities,

including potential liabilities related to environmental clean-up. There are many situations in which you

will be asked to provide personal financial information about your assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses.

Sometimes you will face difficult decisions regarding what to disclose and how to disclose it.


Managerial Analysis assignments buildanalytical and decision-making skills insituations required by managers.

Managerial AnalysisBYP19-2 B.J. King is a fairly large manufacturing company located in the southern United States. The

company manufactures tennis rackets, tennis balls, tennis clothing, and tennis shoes, all bearing the com-

pany’s distinctive logo, a large green question mark on a white-flocked tennis ball. The company’s sales

have been increasing over the past 10 years.

The tennis racket division has recently implemented several advanced manufacturing techniques.

Robot arms hold the tennis rackets in place while glue dries, and machine vision systems check for defects.

The engineering and design team uses computerized drafting and testing of new products. The following

managers work in the tennis racket division.

( )


It is often difficult for companies to determine in what time period they should report particular

revenues and expenses. Both the IASB and FASB are working on a joint project to develop a

common conceptual framework, as well as a revenue recognition project, that will enable com-

panies to better use the same principles to record transactions consistently over time.
