Document Summary

Transactions: events that are recorded as part of the accounting process. Only economic resources and debts resulting from past transactions are recorded on the balance sheet. Transactions include 2 types of events : external events: exchange of assets, goods, or services by one party for assets, services, or promises to pay (liabilities) from one or more other parties. Purchase of a machine from a supplier, sale of merchandise to customers, borrowing of cash from a bank, and investment of cash in the business by the owners. Internal events: certain events that are not exchanges between the business and other parties but nevertheless have a direct and measurable effect on the entity. Using up insurance paid in advance and using buildings and equipment over several years: some important events that have a future economic impact on a company are not reflected in the financial statements.
