Now read the following passage Land, Buildings, and Equipment. Separate accounts should be maintained for land and buildings. Although a building cannot be separated from the land it occupies, a building is subject to wear and tearand therefore has to be depreciatedbut the land is not. There are also separate accounts for each type of equipment. For example, changes in the value of desks, chairs, and office machines are recorded in an account called Office Equipment. The Store Equipment account records increases and decreases in counters, shelves, showcases and similar items. There may be other accounts such as Machinery and Equipment or Trucks and Automobiles. Cash, Notes Receivable, Accounts Receivable, Prepaid Expenses, Land and Buildings and Equipment are the most commonly used accounts to record the assets of a company. 6.

Read the following passage carefully
Notes Payable is the name of the account which record changes in promissory notes that the company owes to creditors within the next year or operating cycle. Accounts Payable (called Creditors in Great Britain) represent amounts owed to creditors, which are the result of the purchase of goods or services. Other Short-Term Liabilities (which may also be Accrued Expenses) include Wages Payable, Taxes Payable, Rent Payable, and Interest Payable. When customers make deposits on (pay in advance for) goods or services to be delivered in the future, this is recorded in the Unearned Revenues account.
Long-Term Liabilities. The most common types of long-term liabilities are debentures, bonds or property mortgages. A wide variety of bonds has been developed to finance special needs, which makes it difficult to classify them. Section D EQUITY ACCOUNTS 1. Match the English and Hungarian terms
English (1) sales revenues (2) commissions (3) royalties (4) rental revenues (5) investments accounts
Hungarian A. jutalék B. jogdíjak C. értékesítés árbevétele D. befektetések számlája E. bérletidíj-bevétel
2. Now read the following passages As we know, what remains after deducting all liabilities from total assets is called owner’s equity. As several transactions affect owner’s equity, it is important to separate these transactions by type. Equity accounts include Revenue Accounts and Expense Accounts. Revenue Account is where revenues from all sources are recorded. This includes sales revenues, rental revenues, commissions, royalties, and other revenue sources. Revenues are also included in the Income Statement, which is called Profit and Loss Account in Britain. Expense Account is where the expenses of running the business are recorded, including such items as wages, rents, travel, insurance, supplies, advertising, and utilities. Expenses are recorded with revenues on the income statement. Equity accounts are often divided into the following components: (1) Issued capital (the capital invested by the owners), (2) Reserves, and (3) Net Profit (the Profit and Loss Account), which connects the Income Statement with the Balance Sheet. They can include Investments Accounts and Withdrawal Accounts (these latter, however, are not used by corporations).
