第一章会计总论学习目标：1.了解会计信息系统2.应用公认会计准则3.了解财务报表4.运用会计要素5.运用会计等式6.了解会计及其环境本章讨论不同的使用者对会计信息的需求，介绍不同实体对会计职业的影响、会计职业道德及职业行为准则。
本章也将对公认会计准则以及一些相关概念和原则进行解释。
本章将介绍会计等式：资产＝负债＋所有者权益，并逐一定义会计等式中的每个要素，举例分析不同业务对会计等式的影响。
同时，本章还将简单介绍财务报表。
1.1会计是一个信息系统我们通常把会计描述为一个信息系统。
作为一个信息系统，会计计量经济活动，将信息编制成财务报表，并将财务报表传达给决策者。
会计的范围包括：确认经济事项，进行计量、记录、汇总，并把信息报告给使用者。
会计所涵盖的范围要大于簿记。
图表1－1是信息在会计系统内的流转图。
簿记是对交易和事件的记录，只是会计的一部分。
会计还包括对会计信息的分析和阐述，以帮助财务报表的外部和内部的使用者制定各项经济决策。
图表1-1 会计信息流转会计信息使用者主要是投资者和债权人，政府，工会，普通公众也会使用会计信息。
1.2组织形式企业有三种组织形式：个人独资企业是指由一个自然人投资拥有的企业组织。
个人独资企业是一个会计实体，但并不是法律实体个人独资企业的所有者对企业的债务承担无限责任，这也是个人独资企业的一个主要缺点。
合伙企业与个人独资企业的区别只在于它有两个或两个以上的所有者。
合伙企业的所有者被称为合伙人。
现实商业活动中有许多不同类型的合伙企业。
公司是依据当地法律注册成立的单独实体；公司的所有者被称为股东。
股东不对公司的债务负责。
有限责任是公司这种组织形式的一个显著优点。
公司的所有权被分为股份。
股份可以在所有者之间转让。
1.3编报财务报表的框架由于各个国家的法律和经济环境不同，各国有不同的会计模式。
在一个国家可行的会计实务在另一个国家并不一定可行。
由于各国的会计模式不同，所以我们需要制定一个互相协调的会计标准：用全球通用的会计语言来传达相关的且可靠的会计信息。

为满足上述需求，国际会计准则委员会（IASC）于1973年成立，并致力于国际公认的会计准则的制定。
会计英语6-10章 中文翻译(叶建芳 孙红星)
制造企业主要包括以下三类存货： 1. 原材料，指企业取得的并将用于生产过程的物品。 2. 在产品，指正在各个生产工序加工的产品。记入在产品的成本包括原材料的成本， 直接人工成本和制造费用。 3. 产成品，指已经完工待售的产品。 在出售时，将产成品的成本确认为销售成本。成本确认的一个大致规则是，工厂内部发 生的成本确认为存货的成本，而工厂外部发生的成本记为销售费用或管理费用。 存货成本包括购买成本以及使存货达到预定可销售状态所发生的一切成本。 合理地计算 存货成本对于企业正确制定其产量， 定价以及战略决策是非常关键的。 生产过程的全部成本 以及使存货达到预定可销售状态的成本都应记入存货成本。与销售相关的成本作为期间费 用。 我们按存货的原始成本记录存货。 存货成本包括为使存货达到目前状态与位置的一切支 出。因此成本包括发票价格，运输费，运输途中保险费，以及其他相关费用。 对于生产制造企业来讲，存货的成本包括原材料成本，生产过程的人工成本，以及其他 相关制造费用。因此资本化的存货成本包括三类不同的存货：原材料，在产品和产成品。 ◇谁拥有存货？ 一般地，只有企业拥有存货的法定所有权，才可以将其作为存货列示在资产负债表中。 在离岸价格交货的情况下，在途商品的所有权归买方所有。因为在这种情况下，商品的 所有权已于商品装上运输工具时转移给买方。若采用目的地交货，卖方支付运输费用，并拥 有商品的所有权，当商品抵达目的地后，其所有权才转移给买方。 在委托代销的情况下，商品的所有者（委托人）将商品转给零售商（受托人） 。受托人 为委托人销售商品，但并不享有商品的所有权。 只有在满足以下两个条件时，存货才能被确认： （a）与该存货有关的经济利益很可能流 入企业；(b)该存货的成本能够可靠计量。
6.3 存货成本流转假设
当存货的单位成本一直不变时，确定期末存货的单位成本是很容易的。但现实生活中， 存货的单位成本一直在变。 如果我们可以确定期末存货中每一件存货的取得成本， 那么就可 以很容易地确定期末存货的总成本。 这种确定期末存货成本的方法称为个别认定法。 个别认 定法按存货的实物流转来分配成本。从理论角度，个别认定法较受青睐，尤其是对于单位价 值比较高的单一存货。但若企业存货数量较多时，采用个别认定法，一一认定每件存货的取 得成本会使成本计算任务繁重，费时费力，且核算成本非常高。对于存货数量多，且存货单 价较低的企业一般采用下面三种存货成本流转假设： （注意存货成本流转假设只是出于会计 目的，与存货实物流转无关。 ） 1.平均成本流转假设 按平均成本确定每件存货的成本。这种方法假设所销售的商品 的成本等于平均成本，即每次购入存货的成本的加权平均。 2.先进先出法 假设先购入的存货先发出。先进先出法的假设有一定的道理，因为我 们认为企业都想不断地更新自己的存货，并将最先购入的存货最先售出。通货膨胀时，使用 先进先出法计算出的净利润比其他方法下计算出的高， 因为此时根据先进先出法的假定， 售 出的是最先购入的存货，而在通货膨胀存在的情况下，最先购入的存货的单价较低，所以企 业的销售成本较低。若企业在通货膨胀，物价水平较高时，不断地补充存货，则由此所产生 的高利润一般被成为“存货利润”或“虚假利润” 。在通货紧缩时，使用先进先出法的影响 与上述相反，会使净利润偏低。 3.后进先出法 假设后购入的存货先发出。当物价上涨时，使用后进先出法计算的当 期净利润会比其他方法少。因此在物价上涨时，使用后进先出法是比较稳健的做法。因为近 期购入的存货的成本接近于企业存货的重置成本。 因此， 后进先出法把当期成本与当期收入 很好地进行配比。同时，由于净利润相对偏低，后进先出法还具有减少企业所得税的优点。 在通货紧缩，物价水平下降时，后进先出法的影响与上述相反。在物价水平下降时，使用后

If Allied is not able, at the time of sale, to make a good estimate of the warranty work that will be required, then the measurability criterion of revenue recognition is not met at the time of sale. The measurability criterion means that the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. If the seller is not able to estimate the amount of work that will have to be done under the warranty agreement, then it is not able to reasonably measure the profit that it will eventually earn on the sales. The performance criteria might also be invoked here.The performance criterion means that the seller has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. As long as there is warranty work to be performed after the sale that is the responsibility of the seller, you might argue that performance is not substantially complete. However, if the seller was able to reliably estimate the amount of warranty work, then performance would be satisfied on the assumption that we could measure the risk that remains with the seller, and make a provision for it.2.Percentage-of-completion method:The first step in applying revenue recognition using the percentage-of-completion method (using costs incurred to date compared to estimated total costs to determine the percentage of completion) is to estimate the percentage of completion of the project at the end of each year. This is done in the following table (in $000s):End of 2005 End of 2006 End of 2007Total costs incurred $ 5,400 $ 12,950 $ 18,800 Total estimated costs 18,000 18,500 18,800 % completed 30% 70% 100%Once the percentage of completion at the end of each year has been calculated as above, the next step is to allocate the appropriate amount of revenue to each year, based on the percentage completed to date, less what has previously been recorded in revenue. This is done in the following table (in $000s):2005 2006 20072005 $20,000 × 30% $ 6,0002006 $20,000 × 70% $ 14,0002007 $20,000 × 100% $ 20,000 Less: Revenue recognized in prior years (0) (6,000) (14,000) Revenue for year $ 6,000 $ 8,000 $ 6,000Therefore, the profit to be recognized each year on the construction project would be:2005 2006 2007 TotalRevenue recognized $ 6,000 $ 8,000 $ 6,000 $ 20,000 Construction costs incurred (expenses) (5,400) (7,550) (5,850) (18,800) Gross profit for the year $ 600 $ 450 $ 150 $ 1,200The following journal entries are used to record the transactions under thepercentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition:2005 2006 20071.

The three criteria of revenue recognition are performance, measurability, andcollectibility.Performance means that the seller or service provider has performed the work.Depending on the nature of the product or service, performance may mean quitedifferent points of revenue recognition. For example, for the sale of products, IAS18 defines performance as the point when the seller of the goods has transferred therisks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. Normally, this means that performance is done at the time of sale. Although the seller may have performed much of the work prior to the sale (production, selling efforts, etc.), there is still significant risk to theseller that a buyer may not be found. Therefore, from a reliability point of view,revenue recognition is delayed until the point of sale. Also, there may be significant risks remaining with the seller of the product even after the sale. Warranties given by the seller are a risk that remains with the seller. However, if this risk can be reliably estimated at the time of sale, revenue can be recognized at the point of sale.Performance is quite different under a long-term construction contract. Here,performance really is considered to be a measure of the work done. Revenue isrecognized over the production period as the work is performed. It is intended toreflect the amount of effort expended by the seller (contractor). Although legal titlewon’t transfer to the buyer until the project is completed, revenue can be recognized because there is a known and committed buyer. If the contractor is not able toestimate how much of the work has been done (perhaps because he or she can’treliably estimate how much work must still be done), then profit would not berecognized until the extent of performance is known.Measurability means that the seller or service provider must be able to reliablyestimate the amount of the revenue from the sale or service. For the sale of products this is generally known at the time of sale (the sales price is set). However, if the seller provides a return period, it may be necessary to estimate the volume of returns at the time of sale in order to measure the revenue that will be recognized.Collectibility means that the seller or the service provider has reasonable assurance that the sales price will actually be collected. In most cases for the sales of products, the seller is able to recognize revenue at the time of sale even if the sale is on account.This is because the seller has experience with its customers and is able to estimate reliably the risk of non payment. As long as the seller is able to make this estimate, it is appropriate to recognize the revenue but to offset it with a provision for possible non collection. If the seller is unable to make reliable estimates of future collection ofamounts owing, the recognition of revenue would be delayed until the cash is actually received. This is what is done using the instalment sales method of revenuerecognition.b. Because of the performance criterion of revenue recognition, it would seem to bemost appropriate to recognize most revenue as the seller or service provider per forms the work. This would be the best measure of performance. This would mean, for example,that sellers of products would recognize their revenue over the whole production, selling, and post sales servicing periods. As we saw above, this is not commonly done because,in many cases, there are still significant risks that are retained by the seller (risk of not being able to sell the product, for example). There are also measurement risks (knowingthe selling price) that exist prior to the sale. The percentage-of-completion method of revenue used for some long-term construction contracts would seem to most closely recognize revenue as the work is performed. As mentioned in Part 1, we are able to recognize revenue on this basis since a contract exists which commits the purchaser tobuy the project (assuming certain conditions are met) and the sales price is known because of the existence of the contract.4.If all revenue is recognized when a student registers for the course, profit for 2007 would be:Sales Revenue1:Manuals and initial lessons (200 × $100) $ 20,000 Additional lessons ((200 × 8) × $30) 48,000 Examinations ((200 × 80%) × $130) 20,800 Total sales revenue 88,800Cost of sales:Manuals and initial lessons (200 × ($15 + $3)) 3,600 Additional lessons ((200 × 8) × $3)) 4,800Examinations ((200 × 80%) × $30) 4,800 Total cost of sales 13,200Depreciation of development costs:$180,000 × (200/1,000) 36,000Profit $ 39,6005.FINISH ENTERPRISESIncome Statementfor the year ending December 31, 2005Continuing operations (excluding the chemical division)Sales ($35,000,000 – $5,500,000) $ 29,500,000Cost of sales ($15,000,000 – $2,800,000) (12,200,000)Gross profit 17,300,000Selling & administration expenses($18,000,000 – $3,200,000) (14,800,000)Profit from operations 2,500,000Income tax expense (40%) 1,000,000Profit after tax $ 1,500,000Discontinuing operations (Chemical division)Sales 5,500,000Cost of sales (2,800,000)Gross profit 2,700,000Selling & administration expenses (3,200,000)Loss from operations (500,000)Income tax expense(40%) 200,000Loss after tax (300,000) Gain on discontinuance of the Chemical division 3,500,000Tax thereon (1,400,000)After-tax gain on discontinuance of the Chemical division 2,100,000 Enterprise net profit $ 3,300,000Chapter 81.Payment of account payable. operatingIssuance of preferred stock for cash. financingPayment of cash dividend. financingSale of long-term investment. investingAmortization of bond discount. no effectCollection of account receivable. operatingIssuance of long-term note payable to borrow cash. financing Depreciation of equipment. no effectPurchase of treasury stock. financingIssuance of common stock for cash. financingPurchase of long-term investment. investingPayment of wages to employees. operatingCollection of cash interest. investingCash sale of land.

由于各个国家的法律和经济环境不同,各国有不同的会计模式。在一个国家可行的会计实务在另一个国家并不一定可行。由于各国的会计模式不同,所以我们需要制定一个互相协调的会计标准：用全球通用的会计语言来传达相关的且可靠的会计信息。
为满足上述需求，国际会计准则委员会(IASC）于１９73年成立,并致力于国际公认的会计准则的制定。２001年4月1日，根据题为《关于重塑国际会计准则委员会未来的建议》的报告中的提议，国际会计准则委员会（IASＣ）改组为国际会计准则理事会（IＡSB）。
合伙企业与个人独资企业的区别只在于它有两个或两个以上的所有者。合伙企业的所有者被称为合伙人。现实商业活动中有许多不同类型的合伙企业。
公司是依据当地法律注册成立的单独实体；公司的所有者被称为股东。股东不对公司的债务负责。有限责任是公司这种组织形式的一个显著优点。公司的所有权被分为股份。股份可以在所有者之间转让。
个人独资企业编制的四种财务报表有：
-利润表(又称为损益表);
-所有者权益变动表(又称为资本变动表，以及以后章节介绍的留存收益表）；
-资产负债表;
－现金流量表。
◇资产负债表（财务状况报告)
资产负债表反映一个企业在某一特定日期的所有资产，负债和所有者权益。资产负债表中资产等于负债加所有者权益。
IASＢ框架对资产的定义如下:
除了1989年发布的国际会计准则外，国际会计准则委员会还发布了财务报表编报的框架,并将其作为建立会计准则的概念基础。
框架主要包括以下内容：
1.财务报表的目的及基础假设；
2.ﻩ财务报表的质量特征;
3.ﻩ财务报表的要素;
4．资本和资本保全概念。

学习目标：1．2．3．编制多步式利润表4．5．编制特种日记账6．本章购货折扣和运输成本。
◇服务企业◇商品流通企业批发商和零售商是商品还会因商品存货的购买和销售而存在其他会计问题。
销售商品带来的收益叫销售收入，为出售而购买和准备商品存货的费用叫做销售成本。
在商品流通活动中使用的两个常见的等式是：净销售收入－销售成本=毛利毛利－经营费用=净利润（或净损失）商品存货是商品流通企业在正常商业过程中为出售而持有的货物。
◇定期盘存制和永续盘存制定期盘存制只在存货（通常年末）盘点时提供存货和销售成本数据。
永续盘存制持续地，不断更新存货和销售成本数据。
因此，定期盘存制和永续盘存制的区别在于如何记录商品存货的采购和销售。
比如定期盘存制使用一个暂时账户---采购账户记录购买商品的成本。
在定期盘存制下，企业根据对存货的盘点确定销售成本和和期末存货成本，进而编制财务报表。
永续盘存制企业在每次采购和商品销售时都及时更新销售成本和商品存货记录。
以前，销售量大且商品单价较低的企业多采用定期盘存制。
随着科技发展，目前这些企业也多采用永续盘存制。
实际盘点也必须在一个永续的制度下完成来使实际手头商品数目与会计记录的余额相一致。
4.2 采购、销售收入和销售成本◇商品采购——永续盘存制在永续盘存制下，所有的商品存货的赊购都要在购买时借记入商品存货账户中，例如：商品存货 xxx应付账款 xxx注意购货净额和总购买额不同。
要计算购货净额，我们需要用总采购额减去供应商提供的购货折扣，购货退回以及对供货商提供的不满意的商品的购货折让。
◇购货退回和折让在日记账中对购货退回和折让的处理如下：应付账款 xxx 商品存货 xxx◇商业折扣商业折扣是买卖双方在确定商品销售价格的谈判中达成的对价目表中所列价格的减让。
实际价格（发票价格）是用价目表中的价格减去商业折扣后得到的。
价目表中的原价和商业折扣均不出现在购销双方的账簿上，以发票价格记录交易。
商业折扣的使用使批发商和零售商节省了频繁更改价目表的成本。

If Allied is not able, at the time of sale, to make a good estimate of the warranty work that will be required, then the measurability criterion of revenue recognition is not met at the time of sale. The measurability criterion means that the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. If the seller is not able to estimate the amount of work that will have to be done under the warranty agreement, then it is not able to reasonably measure the profit that itwill eventually earn on the sales. The performance criteria might also be invoked here.The performance criterion means that the seller has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. As long as there is warranty work to be performed after the sale that is the responsibility of the seller, you might argue that performance is not substantially complete. However, if the seller was able to reliably estimate the amount of warranty work, then performance would be satisfied on the assumption that we could measure the risk that remains with the seller, and make a provision for it.2.Percentage-of-completion method:The first step in applying revenue recognition using the percentage-of-completion method (using costs incurred to date compared to estimated total costs to determine the percentage of completion) is to estimate the percentage of completion of the project at the end of each year. This is done in the following table (in $000s):End of 2005 End of 2006 End of 2007Total costs incurred $ 5,400 $ 12,950 $ 18,800 Total estimated costs 18,000 18,500 18,800 % completed 30% 70% 100%Once the percentage of completion at the end of each year has been calculated as above, the next step is to allocate the appropriate amount of revenue to each year, based on the percentage completed to date, less what has previously been recorded in revenue. This is done in the following table (in $000s):2005 2006 20072005 $20,000 × 30% $ 6,0002006 $20,000 × 70% $ 14,0002007 $20,000 × 100% $ 20,000 Less: Revenue recognized in prior years (0) (6,000) (14,000) Revenue for year $ 6,000 $ 8,000 $ 6,000Therefore, the profit to be recognized each year on the construction project would be:2005 2006 2007 TotalRevenue recognized $ 6,000 $ 8,000 $ 6,000 $ 20,000 Construction costs incurred (expenses) (5,400) (7,550) (5,850) (18,800) Gross profit for the year $ 600 $ 450 $ 150 $ 1,200The following journal entries are used to record the transactions under thepercentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition:2005 2006 20071.

The three criteria of revenue recognition are performance, measurability, andcollectibility.Performance means that the seller or service provider has performed the work.Depending on the nature of the product or service, performance may mean quitedifferent points of revenue recognition. For example, for the sale of products, IAS18 defines performance as the point when the seller of the goods has transferred therisks and rewards of ownership to the buyer. Normally, this means that performance is done at the time of sale. Although the seller may have performed much of the work prior to the sale (production, selling efforts, etc.), there is still significant risk to theseller that a buyer may not be found. Therefore, from a reliability point of view,revenue recognition is delayed until the point of sale. Also, there may be significant risks remaining with the seller of the product even after the sale. Warranties given by the seller are a risk that remains with the seller. However, if this risk can be reliably estimated at the time of sale, revenue can be recognized at the point of sale.Performance is quite different under a long-term construction contract. Here,performance really is considered to be a measure of the work done. Revenue isrecognized over the production period as the work is performed. It is intended toreflect the amount of effort expended by the seller (contractor). Although legal titlewon’t transfer to the buyer until the project is completed, revenue can be recognized because there is a known and committed buyer. If the contractor is not able toestimate how much of the work has been done (perhaps because he or she can’treliably estimate how much work must still be done), then profit would not berecognized until the extent of performance is known.Measurability means that the seller or service provider must be able to reliablyestimate the amount of the revenue from the sale or service. For the sale of products this is generally known at the time of sale (the sales price is set). However, if the seller provides a return period, it may be necessary to estimate the volume of returns at the time of sale in order to measure the revenue that will be recognized.Collectibility means that the seller or the service provider has reasonable assurance that the sales price will actually be collected. In most cases for the sales of products, the seller is able to recognize revenue at the time of sale even if the sale is on account.This is because the seller has experience with its customers and is able to estimate reliably the risk of non payment. As long as the seller is able to make this estimate, it is appropriate to recognize the revenue but to offset it with a provision for possible non collection. If the seller is unable to make reliable estimates of future collection ofamounts owing, the recognition of revenue would be delayed until the cash is actually received. This is what is done using the instalment sales method of revenuerecognition.b. Because of the performance criterion of revenue recognition, it would seem to bemost appropriate to recognize most revenue as the seller or service provider performs the work. This would be the best measure of performance. This would mean, for example,that sellers of products would recognize their revenue over the whole production, selling, and post sales servicing periods. As we saw above, this is not commonly done because,in many cases, there are still significant risks that are retained by the seller (risk of not being able to sell the product, for example). There are also measurement risks (knowingthe selling price) that exist prior to the sale. The percentage-of-completion method of revenue used for some long-term construction contracts would seem to most closely recognize revenue as the work is performed. As mentioned in Part 1, we are able to recognize revenue on this basis since a contract exists which commits the purchaser tobuy the project (assuming certain conditions are met) and the sales price is known because of the existence of the contract.4.If all revenue is recognized when a student registers for the course, profit for 2007 would be:Sales Revenue1:Manuals and initial lessons (200 × $100) $ 20,000 Additional lessons ((200 × 8) × $30) 48,000 Examinations ((200 × 80%) × $130) 20,800 Total sales revenue 88,800Cost of sales:Manuals and initial lessons (200 × ($15 + $3)) 3,600 Additional lessons ((200 × 8) × $3)) 4,800Examinations ((200 × 80%) × $30) 4,800 Total cost of sales 13,200Depreciation of development costs:$180,000 × (200/1,000) 36,000Profit $ 39,6005.FINISH ENTERPRISESIncome Statementfor the year ending December 31, 2005Continuing operations (excluding the chemical division)Sales ($35,000,000 – $5,500,000) $ 29,500,000Cost of sales ($15,000,000 – $2,800,000) (12,200,000)Gross profit 17,300,000Selling & administration expenses($18,000,000 – $3,200,000) (14,800,000)Profit from operations 2,500,000Income tax expense (40%) 1,000,000Profit after tax $ 1,500,000Discontinuing operations (Chemical division)Sales 5,500,000Cost of sales (2,800,000)Gross profit 2,700,000Selling & administration expenses (3,200,000)Loss from operations (500,000)Income tax expense(40%) 200,000Loss after tax (300,000) Gain on discontinuance of the Chemical division 3,500,000Tax thereon (1,400,000)After-tax gain on discontinuance of the Chemical division 2,100,000 Enterprise net profit $ 3,300,000Chapter 81.Payment of account payable. operatingIssuance of preferred stock for cash. financingPayment of cash dividend. financingSale of long-term investment. investingAmortization of bond discount. no effectCollection of account receivable. operatingIssuance of long-term note payable to borrow cash. financing Depreciation of equipment. no effectPurchase of treasury stock. financingIssuance of common stock for cash. financingPurchase of long-term investment. investingPayment of wages to employees. operatingCollection of cash interest. investingCash sale of land.

个人独资企业是指由一个自然人投资拥有的企业组织。
个人独资企业是一个会计实体，但并不是法律实体。
个人独资企业的所有者对企业的债务承担无限责任，这也是个人独资企业的一个主要缺点。
合伙企业与个人独资企业的区别只是在于它有两个或两个以上的所有者。
合伙企业的所有者被称为合伙人。
现实商业活动中有许多不同类型的合伙企业。
公司是依据当地法律注册成立的单独实体；公司的所有者被称为股东。
股东不对公司的债务负责。
有限责任是公司这种组织形式的一个显著优点。
公司的所有权被分为股份。
股票股份可以在所有者之间转让。
1.2编报财务报表的框架
由于各个国家的法律和经济环境不同，各国有不同的会计模式。
在一个国家可行的会计实务在另一个国家并不一定可行。
由于各国的会计模式不同，所以我们需要制定一个互相协调的会计标准：用全球通用的会计语言来传达相关的且可靠的会计信息。
为满足上述需求，国际会计准则委员会（IASC）于1973年成立，并致力于国际公认的会计准则的制定。
2001年4月1日，根据题为《关于重塑国际会计准则委员会未来的建议》的报告中的提议，国际会计准则委员会（IASC）改组为国际会计准则理事会（IASB）。
除了1989年发布的国际会计准则外，国际会计准则委员会还发布了财务报表编报的框架，并将其作为建立会计准则的概念基础。
框架主要包括以下内容：
1.财务报表的目的及基础假设;
2.财务报表的质量特征;
3.财务报表的要素;
4.资本和资本保全概念.
图表1－2概括地介绍了一些重要的会计原则。

2006年2月16日，中国的财政部宣布实行一项新的基本准则和38项新的具体会计准则，虽然这些准则和国际会计准则相比有一些例外，但很大程度上已经和国际会计准则一致。
新的基本准则类似于国际会计准则委员会发布的概念框架，并且这新的38项会计准则覆盖了国际财务报告准则下的所有问题。
1.3了解财务报表
会计信息必须满足使用者的需求。
主要使用者利用财务报表信息评价企业的盈利能力和偿债能力。
财务报表是会计程序的最终产品。
财务报表应按一定的格式编制，并提供与决策相关的信息。
个人独资企业编制的四种财务报表有：
－利润表（又称为损益表）；
－所有者权益变动表（又称为资本变动表，以及以后章节介绍的留存收益表）；。
