equity or book value = firms GAAP VALUE ON THE BALANCE SHEET ; does NOT equal firms market or enterprise value

BOOK VALUE = (common stock + pref stock - treasury stock + noncontrolling interests + APIC) these accts are called contributed capital +/- earned capital, or retained earnings and other direct gains and losses

Fair Value Hierarchy

The fair value hierarchy provides insight into the priority of valuation techniques that are used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy is divided into three broad levels. Fair Value Hierarchy Level 1: quoted prices in active markets like common stock on NYSE Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or through corroboration with observable data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs (for example, a company's own data or assumptions). this is the most iffy. (ex: a DCF) Level 1 is the most reliable because it is based on quoted prices, like a closing stock price in the Wall Street Journal. Level 2 is the next most reliable and would rely on evaluating similar assets or liabilities in active markets. At the least-reliable level, Level 3, much judgment is needed based on the best information available to arrive at a relevant and reliable fair value measurement.

apic

additional paid in capital ; apic is contributed capital that is NOT common stock, preferred stock, treasury stock, or noncontrolling interests ; residual of the residual

APIC pg 82

additional paid in capital ; remember this is the entry for the capital above par value

sg&a

all operating expenses that arent cogs ; costs to support revenue but not part of the custopers purchase (rent/property related, depreciation & amor, payroll related, parketing, other)

when is revenue recognized

as the entity satisfies its performance obligations ; aka when the goods and services are transferred to the customers

cash conversion cycle

average time to pay for inventory, sell inventory and/or services, and collect cash (cash->inventory->a/p->sale-> cash) when u add in A/r after sale and before cash it makes the cycle longer

why would you buy back shares (treasury stock) pg 83 ; also shows share retirement

because eps or ROE can look better

cogs pg 102 (sometimes called COS cost of service)

beginning inven + purchases of inven (raw and freight in) + direct and indirect labor + production overhead including depreciation and amortization from manufacturing = cost of goods available for sale - ending inventory - cogs

equity is the firms ___ value

book value . an investor gives money to a firm and the firm gives value back the the investor in stock price increase *hopefully)

current asets

REDO pg 42 + 43

debt and equity journal entries redo

debt investments (assets)

debt of another firm or entity ; firm chooses 1 of three accounting methods based on investers ability and intent to hold the investment (trading= fair value w normal expenses; AFS uses fair value and AOCI; htm uses amortized cost and is n/a)

accrual accounting

economic measurement is not equal to cash flow (in other words we dont record when cash is physically moving, just the effects in accrual)

Interest paid - where is it found

end of cf statement and in the footnotes

matching principle/ accrual accounting (expenses)

entities match the expense with the revenue; its not an expense until its sold. example is inventory on the bal sheet until revenue is earned (like when the person uses the gift card)

Matching Principle/ accrual accounting (revenues)

entities match the revenues with the period when it is earned ; example, gift cards. when you buy a gift card, the accounts receivable increases, and its matched with deferred revenue (liability!) on the balance sheet until it is earned

equity investments (assets) ; what are they, how much control ; how are they valued ; where do gains and losses go

equity of another firm (public and private); assumes <20% of influence over the investee ; Fair value through net income ; all gains and losses go in p&l in income statement, typically in other net below operating income

True or False: The accounting for investments of 20% or less in the stock of public and private firms is the same under US GAAP and IFRS.

false: Correct! The accounting for investments of 20% or less in the stock of public and private firms is NOT the same under US GAAP and IFRS. Be sure to read a firm's disclosures of its accounting for investments when comparing the income statements of US vs. international firms.

historical cost

firm records the amount of the transaction

long term investments

four categories 1) long term portion of investments in debt and eq 2) items held for speculation 3) special funds set aside 4) unconsolidated companies all are usually listed on bal sheet after current assets

liabilities overview

future sacrifices of economic benefits of an entity as a result of past transactions or events (current and noncurrent, us has no specific sequence, ifrs has a specific order country specific)

above or below the line pg 97

gaap doesnt have a long notion of above and below the line ; OPERATING IS ABOVE , below is not operating ; interest income can go above sometimes, dividends can sometimes be above

pg 76

good liabilities exersize - are they liabilities or not

inventory

goods TO BE SOLD to customers, they arend sold yet so they are still an asset

net AR

gross ar-allowance for uncollectable accounts

if intangible asset is not consumed

has to be tested annually for impairment

FV Level 3 observality

if an observable input has >10% impact on fair value, then it must be level 3

expenditure of cash- does it have a future benefit?

if yes- then capitalize! record as an asset on bal sheet and expense on income statement in a future period. if no, then expense! record the expense on the come statmeent in the current period

key assumptions for lifo and fifo

ignore the actual flow and movement of physical inventory, and costs usually rise over time

what does increasing a/r signal

increase in revenue and or a slowing of collections

other current assets

individually immaterial current assets ; they dont individually meet the threshold of >5% current assets ; if they exceed 5% then it needs its own line item ; examples are non-trade recievables, deposits, and prepaid expenses

what are some omissions (items not on the balance sheet)

intangible assets like Brand; purchase commitments, like coke's commitment to buy sugar, off balance sheet commitments and contingencies

pg 43 equity investments as assets

journal entries practice!

what is required to determine the proper classification of debt securities

judgement

intangible assets

long lived assets that lack physical substance ; sometimes consumed like ppe , when that happens you use amortization expense (offset w accum depr) usually with striaght line method

what are the three primary ways to fund assets

other liabilities (accounts payable accrued expenses and deffered revenue); debt (interest bearing liabilities) and equity (residual owners, high risk high reward)

where are interest and dividends recieved recorded for both debt and equity investments (assets)
