Capital Maintenance • Income per financial capital maintenance: – Results only if ending balance of owners’ equity (in monetary units) is greater than beginning balance (in monetary units). – When trading a specific item, income equals difference of historical cost and net realizable value. 4

Capital Maintenance Kreidler, Inc. , had the following assets and liabilities at the beginning and at the end of a period. Total assets Total liabilities Net assets (owners’ equity) Beginning of Period $510, 000 End of Period $560, 000 430, 000 is $90, 000 390, 000 Income $ 80, 000 $170, 000 5

Capital Maintenance If the owners invested $40, 000 in the business and received dividends of $15, 000, what would be the income? Net assets, end of period Net assets, beginning of period Increase in net assets Deduct investment by owners Add dividends to owners Income $170, 000 80, 000 $ 90, 000 (40, 000) 15, 000 $ 65, 000 6

Capital Maintenance • Income per physical capital maintenance: – Results only if production capacity at the end of the period exceeds capacity at the beginning of the period. – Capacity is measured by replacement cost of net assets. – Income/loss is the difference between replacement cost and net realizable valuable. – Difference between historical cost and replacement cost is considered a capital maintenance adjustment and not part of income. 7

Example of Capital Maintenance • Assume purchase of a house: – Purchase price $ 50, 000 – Replacement cost (Year 5) 150, 000 – Sale price (Year 5) 175, 000 • Calculate income under financial capital maintenance and under physical capital maintenance assumptions. 8

How Is Income Measured? Income is measured as the difference between resources inflows (revenues and gains) and outflows (expenses and losses) over a period of time. 13

Elements of Income • Revenue: Inflows or other enhancements of assets of an entity or settlements of its liabilities from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing, major or central operations (SFAC 6. 78). 14

Elements of Income • Expense: Outflows or other “using up” of assets or incurrence of liabilities from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or carrying out other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing major or central operations (SFAC 6. 80). 15

Elements of Income • Gain: Increase in equity from peripheral or incidental transactions of an entity and from all other transactions. . . except those that result from revenues or investments by owners (SFAC 6. 82). 16

Elements of Income • Loss: Decrease in equity from peripheral or incidental transactions of an entity and from all other transactions. . . except those that result from expenses or distributions to owners (SFAC 6. 83). 17

Elements of Income • Recognition: The process of formally recording or incorporating an item in the financial statements of an entity (SFAC 6. 143). • Realization: The process of converting noncash resources and rights into money refers to sales of assets for cash or claims to cash. 18

Elements of Income Revenues are recognized when the company generating the revenue has provided the bulk of the goods or services it promised for the customer and when the customer has provided payment or least a valid promise of payment. 19

Recognition Criteria: Expenses and Losses (SFAC 5. 86) ¬ Direct matching. ¬ Systematic and rational allocation. ¬ Immediate recognition. 20

Recognition Criteria: Expenses and Losses (SFAC 5. 86) • Direct Matching: Expenses are recognized upon recognition of revenues that result directly and jointly from the same transaction or other events as the expenses. Direct expenses include not only those that have already been incurred but should also include anticipated expenses related to revenues of the current period. 21

Recognition Criteria: Expenses and Losses (SFAC 5. 86) • Systematic and Rational Allocation: Costs are allocated by systematic and rational procedures to periods during which the related assets are expected to provide benefits (i. e. , depreciation). This category involves assets that benefit more than one accounting period. 22

Recognition Criteria: Expenses and Losses (SFAC 5. 86) • Immediate Recognition: Expenses are recognized during the period in which cash is spent or liabilities are incurred for goods and services (i. e. , selling and administrative salaries). This category involves expenses for goods and services that are used almost immediately. 23

Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income is the amount that reflects the change in a company’s wealth during the period. In addition to net income, it includes items that, in general, arise from changes in market conditions unrelated to the business operations of a company. 44

Comprehensive Income The more common adjustments made in arriving at comprehensive income are: Foreign currency translation adjustments. Unrealized gains and losses on available -for-sale securities. Deferred gains and losses on derivative financial instruments. 45

Comprehensive Income Most companies include a report of comprehensive income as part of the statement of stockholders’ equity. 46
