  7. Changes for Canada’s Professional Accoutants • Accountants have started using IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) instead of Canadian GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principle) = Accountants have started using international accounting rule instead of Canadian accounting rule since January 1, 2011.

  8. TERMS: Assets Assetsare resources owned by a business. • Things, which will bring cash or benefits to the business in the future or now. • have monetary value owned by a business

  9. TERMS: Assets Assetsare resources owned by a business. • They might be acquired through • Borrowing (bank, friends) • Owners paid cash for it. • Or combination of both borrowing and owner’s • Examples are: Cash, building, machine, computer, delievery truck, Accounts Receivable or AR (memo which indicates that customers owe future shop money)

  10. Terms Continued: • Liabilities: • Debts of the business • Examples are: credit card debt, loan (short term such as 2 years), mortgage (long term loan such as 30 years) and Accounts Payable (memo which indicates that future shop owes money to Apple)

  11. Terms Continued: • Owners Equity: • My own definition: True Asset • Difference between assets and liabilities • OE = Assets - Liability • Claims against assets • Owners Equity is also called net worth or capital

  12. Scenario #1 I’m a bank loans officer. Patrick has come to me to start a banana case business and needs to borrow $20,000 from the bank. What does Patrick need to tell me to help me decide if the loan should be approved? • Items he own • Items he owe

  13. Scenario #1 What do I do with this information? I should determine Pat’s owner’s equity. His owner’s equity is the difference between what he owns and what he owes. Financial Position of a business is the financial status of the business based on its assets, liabilities and owner’s equity. I can see his financial position, meaning I can make a decision whether my bank can go after Patrick’s asset in case he goes bankrupt.

  14. Items Owned By Pat: Cash $12,000 Clothing 3,000 Furniture 10,000 Equipment 11,000 Auto 15,000 Total Assets $51,000

  15. Items Patrick owe to others: Visa: $1000 Student Loan: $10,000 Total Liability $11,000 What is Pat’s Financial Position? Total amounts owned (Total Assets): $51,000 LESS: Total amounts owed (Total Liability): $11,000 EQUAL: Equity (Capital/Net Worth) $40,000

  16. Conclusion of the banker Therefore as a banker, I can lend him $20000 because the bank will go after Patrick’s equity (which is $40000) in case Patrick goes bankcrupt. If Patrick goes bankrupt, his assets will be sold to pay back his liabilities. Since the value of his total assets are higher than the value of his total liabilities, the bank can receive their money back. Banks and investors always want to know the total assets – total liability, which is owners equity.

  17. Fundamental Accounting Equation: Owners Equity = Assets – Liability Owners Equity + Liability = Assets Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity Easiest way to remember is “ALO” Aloha is “hi” and “Goodbye” “Love” and “Peace” in Hawaian Language Let’s spend 3 minutes with your partner and explain to each other about this equation and definition of each term.

  18. Example Problem: The Accounting Equation Assets = Liability + Owners Equity For example: If James’ total assets = $10,000 and his total liabilities are $6,000 then what is his owners equity? Answer: Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity $10,000 = $6,000 + ?? What’s the owner’s claims against the assets?
