Foundational principles of accrual accounting through detailed transaction analysis, emphasizing the critical distinction between economic performance and cash flow. A central theme is the Revenue Recognition principle, which dictates that income is recorded when value is delivered to the customer—a concept separate from when the cash payment is actually received. This profitability measurement is further refined by the matching principle, requiring that all expenses, whether cash is paid immediately or not, must be recorded in the same period as the revenue they helped generate. The text demonstrates that transactions such as collecting receivables or paying down liabilities affect the balance sheet but have no impact on the income statement, reinforcing that writing a check is not synonymous with recognizing an expense. Ultimately, all successful business activity flows through the Retained Earnings section of equity, which measures the cumulative net profit generated by the firm.
