Application This course is an introduction to learning and applying the principles needed to solve financial accounting problems. Concepts will be applied in this course from previous courses you have taken in business mathematics.

Financial accounting is a particular type of accounting that includes a method of documenting, summarising, and reporting the transactions arising from business operations for a period of time. Such transactions are outlined in the preparation of accounts, including the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement, which document the financial results of the company over a particular period of time.

In India, companies must report the transactions that occur during the fiscal period or a financial year between 1 April to 31 March.

Financial accounting reflects the accounting on "accrual basis" over the accounting on "cash basis". Non-profit firms, companies, and small businesses use accountants in financial matters.

Financial Accountant's Role

A financial accountant may have job opportunities in both the public and private sectors. The financial accountant's duties vary from those of a general accountant, who works for himself or himself rather than for a firm or organization directly.

Financial accounting uses a set of accounting standards which are developed. The selection of accounting standards to be used by a financial accountant depends upon the regulatory and reporting requirements facing the company.

In India, the accounting standards issued by the Indian Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAI) are applied. These are significantly based on and consistent with IFRS standards. However, there are some variations between certain principles of accounting and IFRS.

India's accounting principles have recently converged with IFRS (subject to a few carve-outs). These principles are called the Indian Accounting Principles or the Ind AS. These requirements are compulsory for listed and unlisted firms meeting certain net worth thresholds for accounting periods from 1 April 2016.

In compliance with the accounting principles established by the Companies Act, the financial statements must be published quarterly by companies listed on the recognized stock exchange.

Essential Aspects of Financial Accounting

The financial statements used in financial reports describe the five major financial data classifications: income, expenditures, assets, liabilities, and equity. Revenues and expenses are listed on the income statement. They will involve anything from research and development to the payroll.

Financial accounting results in net profit being calculated at the bottom of the income statement. The balance sheet reports on the assets, liabilities, and equity accounts. The balance sheet uses financial statements to disclose control of the potential economic benefits of the company.

The main distinction between financial and managerial accounting is that financial accounting is intended to provide information to parties outside the organisation. In contrast, managerial accounting information is designed to help managers make decisions within the organisation.
