The Accounting Profession

Accountants are business professionals serving the role of contributing to the success of business. Choosing to be an accountant can be a smart choice because of the persistent demand in both public and private spheres.

What is accounting and what do accountants really do?

It is the process by which assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses are monitored over a certain period of time. Accounting is also a body of rules, conventions and general standards established for uniformity in presentation and reporting of financial information to make them more relevant and informative. Accounting entails capturing financial activities, summarize and interpret them for its various users.

Accountants are involved in different levels of management. From simple recording of transactions to preparation of financial statements and report, to business analysis and even to controllership, accounting professionals play an important part in a company. They participate in cost efficiency measures, consensus of mergers and acquisitions, total quality management, development of information systems and tax management.

The accounting process is a series of activities that begins with a transaction and ends with the closing of the books. Because this process is repeated each reporting period, it is referred to as the accounting cycle and includes these major steps:

1. Identify the transaction or other recognizable event.

2. Prepare the transaction's source document such as a purchase order or invoice.

3. Analyze and classify the transaction.

4. Record the transaction by making entries in the appropriate journal, such as the sales journal, purchase journal, cash receipt or disbursement journal, or the general journal. Such entries are made in chronological order.

5. Post general journal entries to the ledger accounts.

6. Prepare the trial balance to make sure that debits equal credits.

7. Correct any discrepancies in the trial balance. If the columns are not in balance, look for math errors, posting errors, and recording errors.

8. Prepare adjusting entries to record accrued, deferred, and estimated amounts.

9. Post adjusting entries to the ledger accounts.

10. Prepare the adjusted trial balance. This step is similar to the preparation of the unadjusted trial balance, but this time the adjusting entries are included. Correct any errors that may be found.

11. Prepare the financial statements:

- Income statement: prepared from the revenue, expenses, gains, and losses

- Balance sheet: prepared from the assets, liabilities, and equity accounts

- Statement of retained earnings: prepared from net income and dividend information

- Cash flow statement: derived from the other financial statements

12. Prepare closing journal entries that close temporary accounts such as revenues,

expenses, gains and losses.

13. Post-closing entries to the ledger accounts.

14. Prepare the after-closing trial balance to make sure that debits equal credits.

15. Prepare reversing journal entries (optional) to avoid double counting the amount, when the transaction occurs in the next period.

An important point of accounting is the preparation of a balance sheet. In financial accounting, a balance sheet or statement of financial position is a summary of the financial balances of a sole proprietorship, a business partnership or a company. Assets, liabilities and ownership equity are listed as of a specific date, such as the end of its financial year. Of the four basic financial statements, the balance sheet is the only statement which applies to a single point in time of a business' calendar year.

A standard company balance sheet has three parts: assets, liabilities and ownership equity. The main categories of assets are usually listed first, and typically in order of liquidity. Assets are followed by the liabilities. The difference between the assets and the liabilities is known as equity or the net assets or the net worth or capital of the company and according to the accounting equation, net worth must equal assets minus liabilities.

Today, accounting is called “the language of business”. The body of rules that governs financial accounting is called Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP.

Read the statements below and choose the one that best expresses the central idea of the text.

1. The accounting profession is demanded both in public and private spheres.

2. A balance sheet is an important point of an accounting process.

3. Accounting is the process including a number of steps by which assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses are monitored over a certain period of time.

Text C

AUDIT

The general definition of an audit is an evaluation of a person, organization, system, process, enterprise, project or product. The term most commonly refers to audits in accounting, but similar concepts can also exist in project management, quality management, and energy conservation.

Audits in accounting

Audits should be performed to ascertain the validity and reliability of information; also to provide an assessment of a system's internal control. The goal of an audit is to express an opinion on the person / organization / system (etc) in question, under evaluation based on work done on a test basis.

Due to practical constraints, an audit must seek to provide only reasonable assurance that the statements are free from material error. Hence, statistical sampling can be adopted in audits. In the case of financial audits, a set of financial statements are said to be true and fair when they are free of material misstatements - a concept influenced by both quantitative (numerical) and qualitative factors.

Auditing is a vital part of accounting. Traditionally, audits were mainly associated with gaining information about financial systems and the financial records of a company or a business (see financial audit). However, recent auditing has begun to include non-financial subject areas, such as safety, security, information systems performance, and environmental concerns. With nonprofit organizations and government agencies, there has been an increasing need for performance audits, examining their success in satisfying mission objectives. As a result, there are now audit professionals who specialize in security audits, information systems audits, and environmental audits.

In financial accounting, an audit is an independent assessment of the fairness by which a company's financial statements are presented by its management. It is performed by competent, independent and objective person(s) known as auditors or accountants, who then issue an auditor's report based on the results of the audit.

In cost accounting, it is a process for verifying the cost of manufacturing or producing of any article, on the basis of accounts measuring the use of material, labor or other items of cost. In simple words the term, cost audit, means a systematic and accurate verification of the cost accounts and records, and checking for adherence to the cost accounting objectives. According to the Institute of Cost and Management Accountants, a cost audit is "an examination of cost accounting records and verification of facts to ascertain that the cost of the product has been arrived at, in accordance with principles of cost accounting."

An audit has to adhere to generally accepted standards established by governing bodies. These standards assure third parties or external users that they are able to rely upon the auditor's opinion on the fairness of financial statements, or other subjects on which the auditor expresses an opinion.

The Definition for Auditing and Assurance Standard (AAS) 1 by ICAI - "Auditing is the independent examination of financial information of any entity, whether profit oriented or not, and irrespective of its size or legal form, when such an examination is conducted with a view to expressing an opinion thereon."

Consultant auditors are external personnel contracted by the firm to perform an audit following the firm's auditing standards. This differs from the external auditor, who follows their own auditing standards. The level of independence is therefore somewhere between the internal auditor and the external auditor. The consultant auditor may work independently, or as part of the audit team that includes internal auditors. Consultant auditors are used when the firm lacks sufficient expertise to audit certain areas, or simply for staff augmentation when staff are not available. Quality auditors may be consultants or employed by the organization.
