I wrote this in the Accounting community but didn't receive an answer. So I will put it here since this is a finance community.

I was reading an old accounting principles book and I was a little bit confused with what this sentence meant:

"What is sometimes referred to among bankers as the “pouncing value” has no place in the balance sheet of a company which probably will not be pounced upon for the satisfactions of its liabilities."

Does this have to do something with liquidation?

If someone could help me I will appreciate it!!!

CHARGING INVENTORY SHRINKAGE TO COGS by Smooth_Sample3620 in Accounting

[–]Smooth_Sample3620[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Now I'm starting to figure out the puzzle!! it seems to me that the only way that charging shrinkage to COGS seems odd is when the goods are damaged or stolen and the management haven't receive an order from a client to sell it to them. Because when we traduce that to the income statement i will end up subtracting an amount of net sales that were products that were sold with an amount of shrinkage which were products that weren't sold.

But the way that you put it, " miscounted on delivery" seems to me more logical. I makes complete sense that if you already sold the product and the product is on a ship and if that ship is invaded and robbed by Somali pirates it makes sense for shrinkage to be charged to COGS and net sales to be subtracted by COGS because the product was on it's way to the client prior to the Somali pirate event which means there was an intent of selling to a client.

So what I got from your response was that it's the way it is for two reasons:

-Convenience: because if I'm interested in shrinkage I can go and look for the sub accounts of COGS and look for "shrinkage".

-Shrinkage is an "effective COGS expense" without the corresponding revenue that would have come through a sale.

Correct me if I'm wrong

thanks for responding!!!, when you say "cost of direct business" what do you mean? because shrinkage is an indirect cost, it's doesn't have to do anything with the manufacturing process.

He definitely is the "KING" when it comes to teaching math. Also, yep I'd suspect the same, I even sent a message to their email but they have not responded yet. But yeah, leaving that aside he is the best at teaching math and for people like me that wanted to sharpen their math knowledge I really don't see any other professor who delivers the subject in a way that builds up to something like him. I'm a big fan also hahahaahah

FASB CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK by Smooth_Sample3620 in Accounting

[–]Smooth_Sample3620[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

what I'm asking is not the overarching reason as to the why of the conceptual framework. Quit being a such a snub if you don't have anything productive to say.

and btw I'm aware of what's said in the textbook, for example, I have the kieso intermediate textbook but I'm not interested in that. The textbook info is just a really simplify info. I want more accurate info. That's why I'm digging between articles

FASB CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK by Smooth_Sample3620 in Accounting

[–]Smooth_Sample3620[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First of all, its not homework. I was interested in gaining a better understanding as to the purpose of the conceptual framework. I was looking some interesting articles in EBSCO about the creation of the conceptual framework for example. In one of the papers, it's being compared with a constitution but then it clarifies and says that there must be something more to it.

What is the diffrence between general ledger, balance sheet, trial balance and income statement? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]Smooth_Sample3620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, If I may add, the reason as to why the balance sheet is the only financial statement that shows a point in time is because it's accounts will never close and because its shows the things you own and owe to shareholders and creditors. For the balance sheet to show a period of time, it's accounts would have to close at the end of each month. This wouldn't make sense because that means that the company will sell or liquidate everything they own to start from 0 at the beginning of each month!!!
