, Study Note – 1 | Fundamentals of Accounting

1.1& 1.2 Basics and General Accepted Accounting Principles

Meaning of Accounting

American Institute of Certified Public Accountant defined Accounting as “Accounting is the art of
recording, classifying and summarizing in a significant manner and in term of Money, transactions and
events which are, in part at least, of a financial character and interpreting the results thereof.”

In simple terms Accounting can be stated as the process of recording and maintaining the Financial
Information.

Procedures of Accounting

Broadly the accounting procedures are divided into two categories:
1. Generating Financial Information
2. Using the Financial Information.

Procedure to Generate Financial Information comprises of the following 6 steps:

1. Recording:
This is the first step of accounting. All the transactions are recorded in the respective account
book which is called as a “Journal”.

For Eg: All the transactions done by the company during a particular month will be recorded in
the Journal on a daily basis.

2. Classifying:
Classifying involves systematically analyzing and segregating the transactions recorded in the
Journal.

This is done by transferring the journal entries in the Ledger which clubs all the similar
transactions to a particular account.

For Eg: All the journal entries related to sales will be recorded in the Sales Ledger.

3. Summarizing:
Under this step all the ledger balances are summarized and prepared in manner that is useful
to the users of the Financial Statements.

A company carries on hundreds and thousands of transactions in a financial year and the journal
and ledger balances for all the transactions can run into hundreds of pages which will be lot
time consuming and confusing for the users of the Financial Statements.
