What is accounting?
The word “Accounting” is usually associated with figures and then relate it to business.
We may not realize it but accounting is not for business only because people are involved in
some form of accounting on an almost daily basis. It may be in simple acts, like a mother buying
groceries, a student budgeting his allowance, a driver monitoring his bus fares, a doctor
calculating the dosage of medicines for his patients, a nurse implementing the prescriptions of the
doctor, a retiree computing for his post-employment benefits, and employee filing income tax
returns and many more. We can therefore say that whether formal or informal, accountability is
always a part of our life.
Definitions of Accounting
Accounting is a service activity. Its function is to provide quantitative information primarily
financial in nature, about economic entities that is intended to be useful in making economic
decisions.
Accounting is an art of recording, classifying and summarizing in a significant manner
and in terms of money, transactions and events which are , in part at least, of a financial
character, and interpreting the results thereof.

Functions of accounting in business
History of Accounting
As early as November 1494, a Franciscan monk named Fr. Loca Pacioli had published a
book which contained the primary principles of Mathematics and incidentally a set of accounting
procedures. The title of the book was “Summa de Arithmetica, Geometria, Proportioni et
Proportionalita”. This book contains 36 short chapters on bookkeeping. Loca states that to be
successful, every merchant needs three essential things; sufficient cash or credit, a good
bookkeeper and accounting system. In his book Summa, he mentioned about the
“memoramdum” where all transactions are recorded, the “journal” which serves as the merchant’s
private book and the “ledger” which is an alphabetical listing of all business’s accounts along with
the running balance of each particular account. Pacioli never mentioned about financial
statements or the statements that are prepared to communicate the results of business activities
to interested parties because businesses are still closely controlled and monitored by owners.
However Pacioli encourage an annual balancing to determine the success and failure of the
business and to find errors. At present, recording systems has become innovative in procedure
to fit the changing need of every business.
Bookkeeping- is the process of recording systematically the business transactions in order of their
occurrence.
Accounting – is a service activity. Its function is to provide quantitative information, primarily financial in
nature, about economic entities that is intended to be useful in making economic decisions.
Bookkeeping is the recording of financial transactions and events, either manually or electronically.
Accounting includes identifying, measuring, recording and reporting and analyzing economic events and
transactions. It involves interpreting information, and designing information systems to provide useful
reports that monitor and control an organization's activities.
Bookkeeping is procedural and is largely concerned with development and maintenance of accounting
records. It is the "how" of accounting.
Accounting is conceptual. It is concerned with the "why", reason or justification for any action adopted.
Bookkeeping is the tedious part of the financial affairs of a business. It involves the systematic recording
of the amounts, dates and sources of each revenue and expense transaction. Bookkeeping is concerned

PROF. ANNA MITOS J. DIZON,MM
with the systems that enable the financial information to be extracted in the transactions that generate
revenue and incur expense in the business.
Accounting is the bigger picture. It is the system that keeps track of the data, including people, and
records the transaction’s history, as well as taking the information that is obtained through the
bookkeeping process and using that information to analyze the results of the business. Accounting is the
system that provides the reports and information needed for management to make decisions as to the
direction of the business, as well as issues such as taxation, Sales Tax etc.

The preparation of financial statements is governed and guided by a uniform set of accounting
rules, procedures, practices and standards termed as Generally Accepted Accounting principles (GAAP).
5|Page
PROF. ANNA MITOS J. DIZON,MM
GAAP served as “ground rules” that guide accounting practioners in recording and reporting financial
information of a business entity.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are uniform set of accounting rules, procedures,
practices and standards that are followed in preparing the financial statements.
1. Cost principle - This accounting principle requires that assets should be recorded at original
acquisition cost.
2. Objectivity principle- Every accounting transaction should always be supported by verifiable data
as evidence of transactions
4. Materiality principle- Dictates practicality to rule over theory in determining the valuation of an
item. It depends upon the professional judgment of the accountant
5. Consistency principle- Requires that accounting methods and procedures should be applied on a
uniform basis from period to period to achieve comparability in the financial statements
6. Matching principle- Revenue should be recognized when earned and expenses when incurred.
Basic accounting concepts or assumptions are the very foundations of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP). Without these accounting assumptions, there could be no uniformity in the practice of
accounting which can only result to meaningless financial statements.
1. Accounting entity or separate entity or business entity assumption- An entity is separate and
distinct from its owner. For example if Mr Cruz owns a transportation business named “Cruz
Transpo” , if he puts cash and properties into his business, the owner of these properties and
cash will not anymore be Mr. Cruz but “Cruz Transpo”
2. Going-concern assumption. The business is presumed to operate indefinitely except if its already
clear that the business is already bankrupt.
3. Time-period assumption. The life of the business is divided into equal periods. Example , reports
may be prepared on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or in a yearly period. Types of annual
periods are Calendar period and the Fiscal period. Calendar period starts January 1 and ends
December 31 of the same year. Fiscal period starts on the 1 st day of any month and ends on the
last day of the 12th month thereafter.
6|Page
PROF. ANNA MITOS J. DIZON,MM
5. Accrual basis assumption. It is presumed that Income or Revenue is recorded when earned even
if not yet collected and expenses are recorded when incurred even if not yet pad. And further,
sales and expenses must be recorded on the period that it is earned and incurred respectively.
Example, Sales in the year 2014 must be recorded in 2014 and not in any other year.

1. Balance Sheet - The financial statement which shows the amount and nature of business assets,
liabilities, and owner's equity (capital) as of a given date. It is also known as a Statement of
Financial Position or a Statement of Financial Condition.

VI. ACCOUNTING CYCLE NO. 3 –POSTING JOURNAL ENTRIES TO LEDGER
POSTING
Posting refers to the process of transferring the same information found in the journal to the
ledger. Posting basically is a sorting process. It groups similar accounts according to its nature and type.
In the process of transferring the information from the journal to the ledger, the following
guidelines must be observed:
Debit entries in the journal shall be transferred to the debit side of the ledger
Credit entries in the journal shall be transferred to the credit side of the ledger
LEDGER
The ledger accumulates all data necessary prior to the preparation of the financial statements.
Similar accounts found in the journal are grouped together in the ledger. The number of ledger
accounts to be provided is depends on the number of accounts found in the Chart of Accounts.
The ledgers are arranged in the following order of accounting elements based on the
arrangements in the balance sheet and income statement as follows:
a. Assets
b. Liabilities
c. Capital
d. Income
e. Expense

PROF. ANNA MITOS J. DIZON,MM
FOOTING OF LEDGER
Footing is the process of adding the debit and credit money columns of the ledger and finding
their balances illustrated as follows:
Remember: I the debit total is higher than the credit total, put the difference on the “Particular” column of
the debit side which means that the Cash on Hand account has a debit balance of P227,175
Remember: I the credit total is higher than the debit total, put the difference on the “Particular” column of
the credit side which means that the Accounts Payable account has a credit balance of 155,000.
Remember: If there is only one entry in any side of account in the ledger, no footing is needed and entry
is left as it is.
56 | P a g e
PROF. ANNA MITOS J. DIZON,MM
Remember: If the debit total is the same as the credit total, the account is said to be in balance or zero.
