Thank you for these great videos! I share them regularly with my accounting class (high school level). I think it's helpful for students to hear concepts explained differently by different people. On that note, I have a request for future videos. Would you consider doing adjusting entries? and/or closing entries? Particularly adjusting entries seem to stump accounting beginners. ;)

It seems that a drawback to accrual basis accounting is that an assumption is made that when a company bills a client that the client will always pay....recognizing revenue when. Its earned seems reasonable....but if a company earns revenue and the client does not pay then it would appear a company has assets which it doesn't actually possess.....what are your thoughts on this?

Hi very nice and informative video, would greatly appreciate if you could suggest on- will it be considered accrual or cash basis, if somebody receives payment from an organisation, and the person on his/her bank account where he/she submits invoice to an organisation for the online payment (received to his/her bank), and with person receives money on a bank account (without submitting any invoices)?

Another very helpful video. Thank you. I do have a question. With cash basis, am I correct that you record the date you received the check/cash and NOT the date you deposit it in the bank account? If so, is the rule of using the date received changed when you receive a check (tax deductible donation) after 12/31, but the envelope was postmarked on or before 12/31? Is it that the donation is recorded the day received (not the day postmarked or deposited), but if the post mark is on or before 12/31 their donation counts for the previous year? But, it seems that will make the books messy. It has been a long time since this video was made. I hope you are still around answering questions and making these excellent videos. Thank you.
Hello James! Got a question on treatment of advance taken on Receipt & Payment Account. For instance; if an employee has taken advance USD 500 for the company related expense at Dec. 31 (Financial Period : January 1 - December 31). How is it shown on the financials (Receipt & Payment Account). Assuming that the employee has not spent the money but has taken the advance from the company. will the advance amount be carried forward in the next financial period or not? Thank you.
Great video. Just the beginning was a little hard to hear, I think it was because of the music.

Hi james, i have a question how do we deal with bank loans in cash basis of accounting
@AccountingStuff
5 жыл бұрын
Hey Ron, good question. Here are my thoughts... I would think that the initial entry of the bank loan shouldn't affect the income statement at all (since it is a loan, not revenue). It should be recognised on the balance sheet as Cash (an asset) and a Bank Loan (a liability). The interest payments should be recognised as an expense in the Income Statement when they are paid out, which would also decrease Cash in the balance sheet. Does that help?
