4. Financial accounting: objects, principles, tasks

The accounting system is divided into two subsystems: financial accounting and management accounting.

Financial accounting is a system for collecting and processing accounting information necessary for the preparation of financial statements. Financial accounting includes information on the accounting of balance accounts: fixed assets - intangible assets, financial investments, inventories, cash, and is used not only within the enterprise, but also by external users. Financial accounting is regulated by regulatory documents.

Purpose of financial accounting - formation of information about the activities of the organization as a whole: income and expenses, the state of funds, receivables and payables, payments to the budget and extra-budgetary funds, financial investments, financial results, etc.

The subject of financial accounting - economic activity of the enterprise.

Objects are property (economic assets, assets of the enterprise), capital and liabilities of the enterprise (sources of formation of property), as well as business transactions that cause a change in property and sources of its formation.

Financial Accounting Principles.

1. The principle of monetary expression - accounting operates with data that have a monetary value.

2. The principle of autonomy of the enterprise - the accounting accounts of the enterprise are autonomous from the accounting accounts of its owners and employees.

3. The principle of continuity - the company works indefinitely.

4. The principle of materiality - do not waste time on accounting for insignificant facts.

5. The principle of conservatism - when choosing, the accountant chooses the amount that is less optimistic.

6. The principle of constancy - during one reporting period, you need to use one form and method of accounting.

7. The principle of the national currency - in accounting, the method of valuation of funds in a constant currency is used throughout the reporting period.

8. The principle of cost - funds are valued at cost at the time of acquisition, and not at market value.

9. The principle of implementation - enterprises take into account their income at the time of shipment of goods, and not at the time of payment.

10. The principle of compliance - profit - revenue of the reporting period - costs of this period.

11. The principle of duality - the principle of balance, when accounting information is considered according to the composition of the funds and the sources of their formation: the totality of all funds (assets) is equal to the totality of sources (passive); the principle of double entry: a business transaction that changes the composition of the means and sources of formation does not violate the principle of balance.

Objectives of financial accounting.

1. Formation of complete, reliable information about the activities of the enterprise, necessary for users.

2. Providing users with information to monitor compliance with the law, the feasibility of business transactions, the availability and movement of property and obligations, the use of material, labor, financial resources in accordance with approved standards.

3. Prevention of negative results of economic activity.

4. Identification of on-farm reserves to ensure the financial stability of the enterprise.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Toshiba delays OLED TV launch 31.08.2007

The main reason for this decision is the extremely high cost of producing large-format OLED matrices - for example, even relatively small 11-inch "organic" Sony TVs are produced in extremely limited quantities, about 2 thousand units per month.

As for Toshiba, it has postponed the release of its 30-inch TV panels from this year to March 2010. Even less optimistic are the forecasts for the future of SED panels. Toshiba previously postponed the release of high-contrast, large-format panels indefinitely, and this situation has not changed.

And the main reason is not only problems with the license agreement with Nano-Proprietary, the owner of the patent on the SED panel. The production of new generation displays, as well as OLED solutions, is still too expensive to be able to compete with modern LCD and plasma TVs.
