Question 16.
Explain the following terms citing an example for each:
(i) Double Entry System of Accounting
(ii) Cash Basis of Revenue and Cost Recognition. [3]
Answer:
(i) Double Entry System : A business transaction involves the exchange of money and goods or services for money or for a right to claim money in future. Each business transaction involves two parties, i.e., two aspects. There cannot be a business transaction with one aspect. A transaction is just like a scale which must have equal weight on each of the two sides in order to be balanced.
Following are some examples which emphasise the two aspects of a transaction:
(a) If a business firm acquires an asset for cash, it has to give up some other asset say cash or the obligation to pay for it in future. Thus, a giver necessarily implies a receiver and a receiver necessarily implies a giver.
(b) If goods of ‘ 30,000 are sold to Rajendra on credit, the business firm gives goods and acquires a right to receive payment in future. Thus, goods and Rajendra are two aspects of this transaction
(ii) Cash Basis of Revenue and Cost Recognition: Cash basis of revenue and cost recognition means that revenues and expenses are recorded when they are received or paid in cash. For example, if total sales of the firm is 5,00,000 including credit sales of 2,00,000, the revenue from sales will be recorded as 3,00,000 (? 5,00,000 – 2,00,000). If total expenses of the firm are 60,000, including 20,000 as outstandin expenses, the expenses would be recorded as 4a,000(6O,000 – 20,000).
