  • Whenever I look up US GAAP principles such as Accruals and conservatism, I often find Cold Hard definitions that lack context.
    But how do these US GAAP principles relate to the accounts on the financial statements? for example, what does the principle of accrual mean for the balance of accounts receivable? And what does the principle of conservatism mean for the inventory account?

    Hi Bill,
    What should I do if the auditor put to much in accrued liabilities for 2021? I can’t reverse the JE or it will significantly reduce one of our expense accounts.
    Another accountant told me that I can never touch owners equity?!? Wouldn’t I put the over accrued amount to the equity account called prior period adjustments?

    • @TheFinancialController

      I think both options are valid (equity or credit to current year expenses) so just confirm with your auditors which one they find suitable for current year audit

    i have a question about what you said in 6:10 about receivable... in the Column "accrual" says "recording revenue when cash is received". So, where do we must register the credit of the journal entry? We know debit part will be registered as Accounts Receivable but the other part in my opinion should be register as an accrual income. Under IFRS we must recognise an income provision up to we proof that the assets were transfered to the purchasing part, and only there we change the register up to revenue. Can you explain that part detaily? By the way.. thanks a lot for the video. You earn a new follower. 👍
