CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

A. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Accounting process is a series of activities that starts with a


transactions and ends with the closing book. It refers to us as accounting cycle
that includes different steps. According to the book namely “Fundamental of
Accountancy, Business and Management”. Accounting process outlines the
various procedure accounts carry out that lead to the preparation of financial
statement which will be used by both external and internal users to make
economic decisions. Accounting process is one of the most difficult lessons in
accounting that students will encounter. According to Howard ( 2016 ) there are
some hard things in accounting one of them is to understand that it uses words
that are also used in everyday conversation, but they have different meaning in
accounting. The accounting process is on the one hand, pretty simple, but also
on the other hand, can be difficult. But according to American Accounting
Association ( AAA ), “Accounting process is the process of identifying, measuring
and communicating economic information to permit informed judgement decision
by users of the information”.

Analyzing is the first phase of accounting process. You must


look at the transactions entered into, economic events that have taken place,
And determine their effects on the business. Next is Recording, it involves writing
the effects of the transactions and events that have been analyzed. This
recording may be done manually, or it maybe encoded with the use of computers
or data-processing machines. It includes the inputting of information in the
accounting books called journals. Classifying, is the sorting or grouping of similar

transactions and events into specific grouping together the various accounts
reffered to in the classifying process. This is where the accounts are grouped into
assets, liabilities, owners equity, revenue and expenses. The summaries are
taken from the accounts in the general ledger. Reporting involves the preparation
of financial summaries called financial statement. Interpreting is the last step in
the accounting process. It is the step that directs attention into the significance of
various matters and relationships. The relationships may be in percent or in
ratios, may be within the financial report, or may be one report in relation in
another report.

Accounting process is not easy to perform but if apply the


effective methods it will be easy for you to perform it. Many ABM students
encountered difficulties when performing accounting process of service business.
There are three effective method of accounting process. First, is the Cash Basis.
This is where we record a transaction when actual cash flow taken place.
Second, is the Accrual Basis. It is where revenue is recognized even when cash
not received and expenses accounted even when cash not paid .Lastly, is the
Hybrid Method. It is the combination of the accrual and cash methods of
accounting. This are the Accounting Cycle steps and the Effective Methods and
it’s one the reasons why accounting process or the accounting cycle is difficult to
perform because of it’s crucial process.

Many students of grade 11-ABM have difficulties in performing


their accounting process of service business so that the researchers come up
with this study because their purpose are to get the prevention of students
regarding the researchers problem of the study. This study was commonly face
by the students that’s why researchers conduct this study. Aside from that they
wanted to know on how they are able to overcome their difficulties when

performing accounting process, they wanted to gather or gain some information


that comes from the respondents atleast some tips or way on how students can
cope this kind of situations. The researchers prepared a question that answer the
research title (1) What are the perspective of selected Grade 11-ABM Students in
Philippine Christian University-Dasmarinas. Towards the effective method to
analyze their difficulties in Performing Accounting Process of Service Business?
(2) What are the effective methods they should apply in performing accounting
process properly? (3) How they feel if the students perform the accounting
process correctly. These set of question will help the research study and also the
students that involved in this research.

Some of the students nowadays, didn’t understand what are the


steps and the effective methods about accounting cycle. Some of them get
confused, and some of them give up. But according to Obstar, “How good you
are at accounting has nothing to do with how smart you are. It's nothing more
than the result of how much time you spend practicing that over and over again
until you've got it down cold. So don't sweat it just try harder and repeat’’.The
focus of this study is to understand what are the perspectives of ABM students
towards the effective methods in analyzing the accounting process. The major
purpose of this study is (1) to know their different perspectives toward the
effective methods to analyze their difficulties in accounting process. (2) to inform
and bring new effective methods for them to easily and correctly perform the
accounting process.

Furthermore, to perform and finish the research study, the


researchers will use survey questionnaires as their research instrument and
relevant literatures to ensure that their research study is worth conducting.
