About

Hi! My name is Kuya Joseph! Ako po ay isang Philippine Certified Public Accountant (since October 20xx) and a US Certified Public Accountant (since March 2011). Ako po ay alumnus ng Royal and Pontifical Catholic University of Santo Tomas (Batch 2007). Nagwo-work po ako dito sa States as a corporate accountant in a publicly traded company.

Kung nandyan lang ako sa Pilipinas, malamang ay nagtuturo ako pero since wala ako dyan, dito nalang ako sa blog magtuturo πŸ™‚

Please post your questions and I would be more than happy to answer them to the best of my abilities.

    Hi kuya, ang ganda ng site mo mas lalo akong matuto dito at inspired sa pagaaral. Reviewee pala ako at magtatake ng CPA sa October 2010. I must admit na 2times refresher na ako ksi working ako. Pede bang magpaturo? Ano ba ung concepts ng computations ng mga accrued interest sa notes receivables at interest income. Kasi pag nababasa ako ng Financial accounting madali lng ung mga illustrations pero pag auditing problems na nakakalito ung mga computations. Ano bang concepts dun? Thanks kuya in advance, more power and God bless.

    Hi Kuyaseph, thanks sa explaination mo, kasi meron akong naguguluhang problem e. Okay lang ba po?

    On January 1, 2005, Rosalyn company sold goods to Miko company costing PHP 300,000 and receive in exchange a PHP 750,000 non-interest bearing note with a maturity date of January 1, 2009. The note has no ready market but an effective interest of 11% is considered appropriate for a note of this type which will approximate the inventory’s fair value at the time of sale.

    On July 1, 2007, Rosalyn Company which was in need of immediate cash discounted the note issued by Miko company to Clark Finance at 14%.

    Questions:
    1. Total Amount of income to be recognized in 2005.
    2. Carrying value of the note to be presented in Dec 31, 2006 Balance Sheet.
    3. Proceeds from the discounting of the note in July 1, 2007.
    4. Gain/Loss arising from the discounting of the note in July 1, 2007.

    Eto po kasi ung talaga hindi ko masolve kahit iapply ko na ung concepts ng notes receivables. Paki enlighten naman po ako baka mali mali talga ung concepts na naiisip ko.

    Thanks in advance.

    kuya joseph, question? what is the accounting treatment on savings deposit in a closed bank?

    • June 17, 2010 at 5:40 pm

      It depends kung anong mangyayari sa pera mo. Kapag sinabing may makukuha ka pa’ng amount, it will be treated as a Current Receivable. Usually may limit yun. Pag medyo minalas-malas at hindi umabot sa limit nila, i-dederecognize mo na yung cash mo dun. Pero pag ayun nga, may marereceive ka pa, treat it as a current receivable.

    Kuya, tanong ko lang kung ung amount ba ng cash na makukuha ko sa statement of cash flows is same amount na dapat mag-appear sa entry ng cash sa balance sheet? Entrepreneurship student po kasi ako, bale sa business implementation subject namen pinapagawa kami ng financial report. Bakit din po di nagma-match ung amount ng cash na nakuha namin sa cash flow statement dun sa actual na pera na hawak namin? Okay lang po ba yun? Thanks!

    • September 9, 2010 at 8:19 am

      Yung amount na makukuha mo sa Cash Flow Statement (sum of Operating, Investing and Financing activities) ay dapat equal sa difference ng beginning at ending balance ng Cash account mo sa balance sheet. Ang purpose kasi ng CFS ay ipakita ang details about the changes in the balance of the Cash account.

    Hi kuya Joseph, meron po bang account title na Allowance for purchase discount ( contra AP) and allowance for sales discount (contra AR) .. thank you po…

    • October 24, 2019 at 3:32 pm

      On Payables, wala, we don’t anticipate discounts. We only record discounts when taken (remember conservatism?). On AR, though, we do have allowances but normally for bad debts. Contra-asset accounts on receivables are used to measure the realizable value of your AR (probability of collectibility). Allowance for sales discount is normally found on your P&L, as a contra-revenue account for sales discounts taken.
