Thank you for explaining a concept I was completely stuck on! Watching your 4-part accrual series, as well as your earlier videos ie/ Balance Sheet etc, to help better understand what a textbook is doing a less than stellar job to explain! I have accomplished more in 24 hours watching your videos than the 3 months I've been at this Financial Accounting course - awesome job explaining everything - thank you! Your use of graphics and examples really brings it all home as well as concepts such as determining which statement is affected (ie/ releasing it from the Balance Sheet and assigning to the Income Statement), and why, really gives a stronger understanding than just memorizing. Oh, and DEALER is brilliant. Thank you!!!
My man, you are saving me with these videos. I was on the brink of break-down, found your videos. Had to get used to them at first, but now I understand your way of teaching and it is perfect. No more unclarities. You deserve every like of those 1200 likes! Much love
I was confused with terms of ‘deferred’ & ‘ accrued’ , but you clarify’ deferred’ very well in this short video so that I‘ve got it now and I am looking forward to’ accrued’ one! Thanks James!😊
Congratulations! 🎊 you deserve even more! Keep it up 💪🏼 cause you are making such a big difference to all new accounting learners like myself! Thanks James!
Accrual accounting produces the best financial statements for investors! It really helps investors predict future earnings much better than cash accounting. Thank you for showing us how to account for unearned revenue!
I wished that your videos existed in the years 1979 and on when I was working for Credit Suisse in Switzerland. Appreciate very much. As a retiree, I'm learning accounting now for fun.
I can make sure that you must have a good grasp of accounting so that you can interpret these knowledge very easy and understandable. Obvious genius. Thanks for your video
I never comment on videos, however, I have to in this case. Absolutely incredible! The quality of your work and knowledge is amazing! I can't thank you enough!!
You are amazing keep up the good work, I can confidently step into my new role as Management Accountant with some more confidence as I was out of a job for sometime.
James you're the boss keep it up, You have improved my knowledge on matters of accounting. I don't if I will be too much by asking you to post a video on Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payables. Have a great day
Believe me you are going to rule in this category of videos.. More power to you bro.. All the Best. Subscribed to your channel in just few minutes of into it.. Awaiting many more damn eagerly...
These videos are so amazing! Do you think you could add another one to this set that covers depreciation? I get that it follows the same basic principle but just different enough to be confusing.
Super helpful content! You are a gifted teacher, and I'm greatly thankful. One question, if there is a "no refund" policy, I.e. no possible way to "lose" the cash, is it still accounted the exact same way?
Hey man, got a question. In this video you point out that you can't credit revenue in JR:2/Initial because of the accruals basis. Revenue & Expenses must be recognised as they are incurred-I understand that. However in your previous video of this mini series, when talking about deferred expenses you Cr Cash & Dr Insurance expense. Why was it ok to recognise the expense in that JR even thought it seems to contradict what you're saying in this video (to me at least)?
lmao nobody disliked this because everyone who watches this definitely has a quiz the next day that they are not ready for...... I am one of these people. Thumbs up.
My question would be how do you remember to make each of these adjustments? Does Quickbooks have an alert or something you can setup so you remember to do it?
hiii u re doing a greattt jobb and u re helpiong me understand everything soooo quickly and easily. can you make a video about VAT ? and how to record it and when THANKS A LOT
Hiii! Thank you for this video, really helped me a lot. Could you please explain in your next video about the closing entries with examples of not knowing the amount of drawings please? 🙏
Up to this point, I found the Debits=Destinations for Value & Credits=Sources of Value framework far more intuitive than focusing on whether a debit/credit increases/decreases an account. This case study is a bit of a mind twister though. It makes sense that Cash receives value (Debit) of 800 with its source (Credit) being Deferred Revenue - that's nothing new. Yet, the idea that Deferred Revenue receives value (Debit) of 400 with its source (Credit) being Revenue seems a bit strange. I got past it by thinking of it as "Real" Revenue that cancels the Liability of your business owing the customer. You could probably explain it better though. Or maybe I should just drop the Destination/Source framework?
Remember deferred revenue is a liability. Now think about how a liability works, for example a bank loan... When you take out a loan, you dr cash and cr. loan payable. So, the loan (source) is transferring economic benefit in the form of cash (destination) that you can use how you like. BUT, since it's also a liability, the deal is it wants something in return. It wants to be paid back in cash (dr'd), and when satisfied it will close off. In other words, _it is _*_both_*_ a current source _*_and_*_ a future destination of economic benefit._ In the case of loans, it wants to receive the future economic benefit in the form of cash (ie. It wants to be paid off). You know how that will look: you cr cash (source) and dr the loan account (destination). Thus when fulfilled, it is closed. But what about deferred revenue? Well, it works similarly: it has given you money... except it doesn't want money in return in the future. It wants goods/services in the future. And so, when you perform your work, what does that look like? You cr. Revenue, and this symbolizes that the goods/services were provided. You dr deferred revenue, signaling that you have satisfied the economic benefit it wanted, thus closing the account.
Thank you for your wonderful videos ! Could you please explain deferred tax topic in your videos , it would be great because the topic is difficult to summarize.

Love you James!! What is the difference b/w Deferred tax assets and Liabilities, Deferred revenue and Deferred revenue expenditure. Pls explain
Thanks for your request!
I followed you on Instagram and subbed to your channel cuz your worth it
Legend!
You're a miracle!
Super helpful content! You are a gifted teacher, and I'm greatly thankful.
One question, if there is a "no refund" policy, I.e. no possible way to "lose" the cash, is it still accounted the exact same way?
I think it would be. Despite legal questions on whether payments are refundable, you are still expected to perform the service you were paid for.
Thanks, very helpful!
You're welcome!
Great explanation! Thank you!
Cheers, you're welcome :)
