What’s In

The end product or output of accounting (financial accounting, to be specific)

is useful financial information. This useful financial information is the “story” that
accounting tells to the interested users. Useful financial information helps the owner
to answer the question, “Should I invest more cash in the business?

Creditors are also guided by this information in answering the question,

“Should we lend more money to the business?”

Financial information is contained and communicated through the financial

statements. Financial statements are like chapters of a novel, telling different stories
of an interrelated subject. Specially, financial statements are organized depictions of

3
the events that happened in a business. A complete set of financial statements are
composed of the following (IASB 2011):
1. Statement of Financial Position or Balance Sheet
2. Statement of Comprehensive Income or Income Statement
3. Statement of Changes in Equity
4. Statement of Cash Flow

What Is It

5
Lesson 3.1 Types of Business Organizations

Business entity concept is a prevailing assumption in accounting. It states that

the transactions of the owners (as a separate entity) must be distinguished and
differentiated from the transactions of the owners. Business transactions must be
captured in the financial statements of the reporting entity. Personal transactions, on
the other hand, must be kept in the records of the owners.

There are three major types of business organizations in the Philippines,

based on classification of ownership. These business organizations are sole or
single proprietorship, partnership, and corporation.

1. Sole/Single Proprietorship

This is a business organization owned by one person. The owner of the sole
proprietorship is the proprietor. In most cases the proprietor is also the general
manager of a sole proprietorship. As a general manager, he oversees the day-to-day
operations of the sole proprietorship. A sole proprietor is more involved than other
business owners. Sole proprietorships are relatively easy to organize.
Major disadvantages of sole proprietorship include limited source of capital,
proprietor’s unlimited liability, and business entity’s limited existence. The sole
proprietor is the major source of financing available for business. Another major
DRAFT

disadvantage of sole proprietorship is the unlimited liability of the sole proprietor.

Bankruptcy occurs when the sole proprietorship is unable to pay debts. In the
Philippines, in case that the assets of a sole proprietorship are not enough to cover
its existing liabilities, creditors can run after the personal assets of the owner. Lastly,
sole proprietorships have limited life. A sole proprietorship generally co-exists with
the sole proprietor.
Common examples of sole proprietors are stores and individuals rendering
professional services like lawyers, physicians, dentists, and accountants.

2. Partnership

Title lX, Chapter 1 of the Philippine Civil Code defines partnership as a

contract where two or more persons bind themselves to contribute money, property,
or industry to a common fund, with the intention of dividing the profits among
themselves. These persons are called partners. Their agreement is contained in a
document called articles of partnership. The ultimate goal of the partner is to divide
the profits among themselves.
A key advantage of a partnership is the ease of organization, as compared to
a corporation. The contract of partnership may be oral or in writing, as a general rule.
Another advantage of a partnership is the entity’s larger source of capital and
expertise, as compared to a sole proprietorship.
Major disadvantages of partnership include unlimited liability, limited
existence, and mutual agency of the partners. Generally, a partner’s liability in the
partnership can extend to his or her personal properties, similar to a sole

6
proprietorship. However, the unlimited liability of a partner is subject to exceptions
(i.e., the concept of a limited partner). Partnerships also have limited existence.
Generally, any change in the partnership may dissolve the entity. The most common
reason for a partnership’s dissolution is the death of one partner. Finally, mutual
agency may also be a disadvantage to a partnership. Mutual agency means that
each partner may bind the partnership and the other partner in business related
matters. For example, if one partner obtains a business loan on behalf of the
partnership, the partnership and the other partner are bound by the said loan.
Common examples of partnerships are legal (law) firms and accounting firms.

3. Corporation

The Corporation Code of the Philippines (1980) defines the word corporation
as an “artificial being created by operation of law, having the right word of
succession and the powers, attributes and properties expressly authorized by law or
incident to its existence.”

Corporation as Artificial Being

In the eyes of the law, a corporation is an artificial being independent of its

owners. A corporation has a name and birth date (incorporation date) just like a
normal person. As an artificial being, a corporation has rights, powers, and attributes.
Here is an example of a right of a corporation: It can acquire its own property. The
names, powers, objectives, and registered address of a corporation are included in a
document called the articles of incorporation.
DRAFT

Owners of a corporation are called stockholders (also called shareholders).

Generally, stockholders have rights to vote, dividends, and new stock issues. Right
to vote pertains to the stockholders ability to participate in the significant decision
making agenda of the corporation through voting. Voting in a corporation is generally
proportional to the number of shares held by the stockholder.

The major advantage of a corporation is the centralization of management

through the board of directors. The board of directors exercises functions over the
corporation. They protect the interest of the stockholders. Another advantage of
corporate organizations is its long existence. Generally, corporations in the
Philippines are given a life of 50 years, subject to renewal. Ownership of a
corporation may be inherited by respective heirs of the original owners. The liabilities
of a corporation may not extend to the stockholders, unlike in sole proprietorship and
partnership. Stockholders are only liable to the extent of their original investment in
the corporation.

The major disadvantage of a corporation is its stringent requirements for

registration. Registering a corporate entity in the Philippines will take a significant
longer period of time than organizing a sole proprietorship or partnership. Also,
corporations are subjected to heavy government regulation through the Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC). Corporations are also subjected to double
taxation. The income of the corporation in itself will be subjected to a corporate
income tax of 30%. If the corporation decides to declare dividends to its
stockholders, the dividends are again subjected to a withholding tax.

Lesson 3.2. Preparation of Statement of Changes in Equity for Sole
Proprietorship

Preparing a statement of changes in equity (SCE) for a sole proprietor is quite

straightforward. The elements of an SCE for a sole proprietorship include the
beginning capital, additional income, net income, and withdrawals.

Sample Statement of Changes in Equity

Bimby Food Cart

Statement of Changes in Equity
For the year ended December 31, 2019
Mr. Bimby Equity, Beginning 100,000.00
Add:
Additional Investment 10,000.00
Net Income 25,000.00 35,000.00
Total Equity 135,000.00
Less: Owner’s, Withdrawal (20,000.00)
Mr. Bimby Equity, Ending 115,000.00
========
Figure 1. Sample Statement of Changes in Equity for Sole Proprietorship
DRAFT

Lesson 3.3 Steps in Preparation of Statement of Changes in Equity

1. Draft the heading.

The heading of SCE resembles that of a comprehensive income. This is
because the SCE shows the movement in the capital account of the
owner.

2. Determine the beginning balance of capital (equity)

The equity beginning is the operating balance of the owner’s equity
account. This is the ending balance of the equity account of the previous
year. In the case above, this also pertains to the balance as of January 1,
2020 or December 31, 2019.

3. Determine amount of investment (initial or additional)

Additional investment pertains to any capital infusion made by the owner
for the year. For the first year of operation, the SCE should bear the line
item “initial investment”, instead of “additional investment”, which would be
used for the succeeding year of operations. The amount of initial
investment can be traced to the general ledger account or T-account.

4. Determine the amount of the net income

8
 Net income, on the other hand, pertains to the amount earned by the sole
proprietorship for the year. This amount is taken from the statement of
comprehensive income. This is the reason why the statement of
comprehensive income is first constructed before the SCE.

5. Determine the balance of the drawing (withdrawal) account

After net income, drawing is deducted from the balance. This can be done
by referring to the ledger balance or T-account of the withdrawal account.
Drawing represents the owner’s return of investment.

6. Determine the ending balance of the capital or owner’s equity account.

After determining the beginning balance, investment, net income (or net
loss), and withdrawal, the accountant will determine the ending balance of
the equity account.
Finally, equity ending represents the equity balance of Mr. Snackstore as
of December 31, 2019.
