balancethe two sides must always be equal.,remain in balance 保持平衡,The most basic tool of the accountant is the accounting equation.This equation presents the assets of the business and the claims to those assets.,accountant 会计师claims to those assets 资产的权益,Assets are the economic resources of a business that are expected to be of benefit in the future.,economic resources 经济来源,Cash,office

the assetsthe liabilities and owners equityappear on the right-hand side of the equation:,ASSETS=LIABILITIES+OWNERS EQUITYlegal and economic claims(against or to)法律和经济上的权益,Lets take a closer look at the elements that make up the accounting equation.Suppose you run a business that supplies meat to fast-food restaurants.,element 要素,Some customers may pay you in cash when you deliver the meat.Cash is an asset.Other customers may buy on credit and promise to pay you within certain time after delivery.,on credit 赊账 after delivery交货后,This promise is also an asset because it is an economic resource that will benefit you in the future when you receive cash from the customer.,这种付款承诺也是资产，因为将来你从客户处收现金时，你可以从中受益的经济来源。,The meat supplier calls this promise an account receivable.If the promise that entitles you to receive cash in the future is formally written out,it is called a note receivable.All receivables are assets.,account receivable 应收账款 entitle sb.to do给某人做权利 note receivable应收票据receivables 应收,The fast-food restaurants promise to pay you for the meat it purchases on credit creates a debt for the restaurant.This liability is an account payable of the restaurant,which means that the debt is not formally written out.,account payable 应付账,Instead the reputation and the credit standing of the restaurant and its owner back it up.A written promise of future payment is called a note payable.All payables are liabilities.,credit standing 信用状况，资信 back it up 支持 note payable 应付票据payables 应付,Owners equity is the amount of the assets that remains after subtracting liabilities.We often write the accounting equation to show that the owners claim to business assets is a residual:ASSETS-LIABILITIES=OWNERS EQUITY,residual 剩余的部分,On the balance sheet,assets and liabilities are classified as either current or long-term to indicate their relative liquidity.Liquidity is a measure of how quickly an item may be converted to cash.,balance sheet 资产负债表 relative liquidity 相对的流动性 convert to cash 把变现,Therefore,cash is the most liquid asset.The account receivable is a relatively liquid asset because the business expects to collect the amount in cash in the near future.,the most liquid asset 流动性最大的资产，最容易变现的资产,Supplies are more liquid than accounts receivable,and furniture and buildings are even less so.Users of financial statements are interested in liquidity because business difficulties often arise owing to a shortage of cash.,financial statements 财务报表 liquidity 流动性，流动资金,How quickly can the business convert an asset to cash and pay a debt?How soon must a liability be paid?These are questions of liquidity.Balance sheets list assets and liabilities in the order of their relative liquidity.,in the order of their relative liquidity 按其流动性,Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted to cash,sold,or consumed during the next 12 months or within the businesss normal operating cycle if longer than a year.,current assets 流动资产 operating cycle 经营周期,The operating cycle is the time span during which(1)cash is used to acquire goods and services,and(2)these goods and services are sold to customers,who in turn pay for their purchases in cash.,time span 期间,For most businesses,the operating cycle is a few months.A few types of business have operating cycles longer than a year.,Cash,Accounts Receivable,Notes Receivable due within a year or less are current assets.Merchandise such as Sears,Penneys and K Mart is an additional current asset.Inventory shows the cost of goods that are held for sale to customers.,due 到期的；应付的inventory 库存，存货,Long-term assets are all assets other than current assets.They are not held for sale,but rather they are used to operate the business.,long-term assets

statement users such as creditors are interested in the due dates of an entitys liabilities.The sooner a liability must be paid,the more current it is.,due dates 到期日,Liabilities that must be paid on the earliest future date create the greatest strain on cash.Therefore,the balance sheet lists liabilities in the order in which they are due.,strain 紧张,Knowing how many of a businesss liabilities are current and how many are long-term helps creditors assess the likelihood of collecting from the entity.Balance sheets usually have at least two liability classifications,current liabilities and long-tern liabilities.,likelihood of collecting 收到款的可能性 current liabilities 流动负债，短期负债,Current liabilities are debts that are due to be paid within one year or within the entitys operating cycle.Notes
