This document defines and provides examples of adjusting and non-adjusting events that occur after the reporting period in preparing financial statements. Adjusting events provide evidence of conditions that existed at the reporting date and result in changes to figures recognized in the financial statements. Non-adjusting events provide evidence of conditions that did not exist at the reporting date and do not affect financial statement figures, but must be disclosed if material. The date of authorization for issuing the financial statements must also be disclosed.
The document defines a chart of accounts as a listing of account names used to record transactions in a company's general ledger.

Internal control is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of objectives relating to operations, reporting, and compliance. It consists of five components: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring activities. The components work together to help ensure reliable financial reporting, effective and efficient operations, and compliance with laws and regulations. Internal control is important for both management and external auditors, and while it cannot provide absolute assurance, it helps reduce risks of failure to achieve goals.

This document discusses audit risk assessment. It defines audit risk as the risk that an auditor gives an inappropriate opinion when financial statements are materially misstated. Audit risk has three components: inherent risk, control risk, and detection risk. The auditor assesses these risks to determine the nature, timing and extent of audit procedures. A key part of risk assessment is understanding the client's internal controls, including control environment, risk assessment, information and communication, control activities, and monitoring. The auditor documents their understanding of internal controls to help plan the audit and determine appropriate audit strategies.

Pr. 4-129—Irregular items and financial statements.
The accountant preparing the income statement for Bakersfield, Inc. had some doubts about the appropriate accounting
treatment of the seven items listed below during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. Assume a tax rate of 40
percent.
1. The corporation experienced an uninsured flood loss of $50,000 before taxes. While this loss meets the criteria of
an extraordinary item, it has not been recorded.
2. The corporation disposed of its sporting goods division during 2010. This disposal meets the criteria for
discontinued operations. The division correctly calculated income from operating this division of $100,000 before
taxes and a loss of $12,000 before taxes on the disposal of the division. All of these events occurred in 2010 and
have not been recorded.
3. The company recorded advances of $10,000 to employees made December 31, 2010 as Salary Expense.
4. Dividends of $10,000 during 2010 were recorded as an operating expense.
5. In 2010, Bakersfield changed its method of accounting for inventory from the first-in-first-out method to the
average cost method. Inventory in 2010 was correctly recorded using the average cost method. The new inventory
method would have resulted in an additional $125,000 of cost of goods sold (before taxes) being reported on prior
years' income statement.
6. Office equipment purchased January 1, 2010 for $45,000 was incorrectly charged to Office Supplies Expense at
the time of purchase. The office equipment has an estimated three-year service life with no expected salvage
value. Bakersfield uses the straight-line method to depreciate office equipment for financial reporting purposes.
This error has not been recorded.
7. On January 1, 2006, Bakersfield bought a building that cost $85,000, had an estimated useful life of ten years, and
had a salvage value of $5,000. Bakersfield uses the
straight-line depreciation method to depreciate the building. In 2010, it was estimated that the remaining useful
life was eight years and the salvage value was zero. Depreciation expense reported on the 2010 income statement
was correctly calculated based on the new estimates. No adjustment for prior years' depreciation estimates was
made.
Part A. For each item, record corrections to income from continuing operations before taxes, if any. Denote any
negative numbers by using brackets < >.
Solution 4-129
Number Item Description Increase <Decrease> to Income
from Continuing Operations
1 Extraordinary items reported after Income No Effect
from Continuing Operations (ICO)
2 Discontinued Items reported after ICO No Effect
31. 3 Correct with Dr: Prepaid Salary $10,000
Cr: Salary Expense
4 Dividends are not reported on the Income $10,000
Statement; should be on Statement of R/E.
5 Change in inventory method: Current year No Effect
reported correctly on income statement, need
to adjust beginning R/E.
6 To correct, need to put back all $45,000 of $30,000
equipment into Equipment account and take
out of Supplies Expense account. Also take
depreciation of $15,000 for the year. Net
effect is to increase income by $30,000.
7 Current year is correct. Change in estimate No Effect
does not need retroactive action.
Part B. At January 1, 2010, Bakersfield, Inc.'s retained earnings balance was $200,000. Assume that income from
continuing operations (before taxes) and after correctly considering any of the seven additional items was
$1,000,000. Prepare the income statement and statement of retained earnings. Denote negative numbers by
using brackets < >. Do not disclose earnings per share data.

IFRS QUESTIONS

single-step or multi-step approach.
2. iGAAP does not allow gains or losses to be classified as extraordinary items.
3. iGAAP allows for revaluation of long-term tangible and intangible assets with the differences
impacting equity but not net income.
4. Both iGAAP and U.S. GAAP allow for comprehensive income to be reported in either a
Statement of Stockholders' Equity or a Statement of Recognized Income and Expense.
5. Under iGAAP, a company may classify expenses by function, but must also disclose the
classification of expenses by nature.
Answers to True/False:
1. False
2. True
3. True
4. False
5. True
Multiple Choice:
1. The iGAAP income statement classification of expenses by nature results in descriptions
which include all of the following except
a. salaries
b. depreciation
c. distribution
d. utilities
2. U.S. GAAP allows all of the following statement formats to be used for reporting comprehensive income except
a. Statement of Recognized Income and Expense
b. Single Income Statement
c. Combined Income Statement of Comprehensive Income
d. Statement of Stockholders' Equity
3. An iGAAP SoRIE statement might include all of the following except

b. unrealized gains or losses on the revaluation of long-term assets
c. cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
d. extraordinary gain or loss
Answers to Multiple Choice:
1. c
2. a
3. d
33. Short Answer:
1. What are the iGAAP requirements with respect to expense classification?
1. Under iGAAP expenses must be classified by either nature or function. Classification by nature leads to
descriptions such as the following: salaries, depreciation expense, utilities expense and so on. Classification by
function leads to descriptions like administration, distribution, and manufacturing. Disclosure by nature is required in
the notes to the financial statements if the functional expense method is used on the income statement. There is no
U.S. GAAP in this area, except the SEC does require public companies to report their expenses by function.
2. Bradshaw Company experienced a loss that was deemed to be both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence.
How should Bradshaw report this item in accordance with iGAAP?
2. Bradshaw should report this item similar to other unusual gains and losses. While under U.S. GAAP, companies
are required to report an item as extraordinary if it is unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence, extraordinary
item reporting is prohibited under iGAAP.
