It also includes the preparation of final accounts such as Trading and Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet at the end of the financial year. It is associated with communicating the interpreted results of the financial information to its users. The characteristics or attributes or features of Accounting are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/SLIDE-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/SLIDE-2.jpg 960w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/SLIDE-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/SLIDE-2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption><strong>FEATURES OF ACCOUNTING<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ACCOUNTING_IS_AN_ART_AS_WELL_AS_SCIENCE\"><\/span><strong>ACCOUNTING IS AN ART AS WELL AS SCIENCE:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Accounting\nis an Art of recording, classifying, summarizing, analyzing and interpreting\nthe accounting records with a view to ascertain the net profit\/ loss and\nfinancial position of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Accounting\nas a Science is an organized body of knowledge that contains some underlying\nprinciples and rules that are followed while maintaining accounts. However,\nAccounting is not a pure science as it does not establish cause and effect\nrelationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RECORDING_OF_FINANCIAL_TRANSACTIONS_ONLY\"><\/span><strong>RECORDING OF FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ONLY:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Accounting\nrecords only those transactions and events that are expressed in monetary terms\nor in quantitative form. For instance, the transactions like sale of goods for \u20b95,000\nwill be recorded in the books of accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">However, there are so many events which\nare very important for business but cannot be recorded in the books of accounts\nbecause such events cannot be expressed in quantitative or monetary form. For\nexample: Loyalty of Employees, Resignation by an able and experienced manager,\nStrike by employees, Quarrel between employee and employer etc. but these\nevents have a large impact and direct bearing on the business of the firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RECORDING_IN_TERMS_OF_MONEY\"><\/span><strong>RECORDING IN TERMS OF MONEY:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The accounting records only those\ntransactions which can be expressed in terms of money only. It implies that a\nbusiness man will not record the purchase of 5 chairs and 5 tables, he will\nrecord the purchase of 5 chairs costing \u20b92,500 and 5\ntables costing \u20b95,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Also the recording is done in the book\nof the journal which is the primary book of recording the transactions in the\nchronological order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In small business houses, the recording of transactions is generally done in the book of Journal whereas in big business houses the recording of transactions is done in the subsidiary books:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cash Book<\/li><li>Purchase Book<\/li><li>Sales Book<\/li><li>Purchase Return Book<\/li><li>Sale Return Book<\/li><li>Bills Receivable Book<\/li><li>Bills Payable Book<\/li><li>Journal Proper<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The number of subsidiary books to be\nmaintained depends upon the nature and size and needs or requirements of the\nbusiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"CLASSIFYING_THE_TRANSACTIONS\"><\/span><strong>CLASSIFYING THE TRANSACTIONS:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">One of the Features of Accounting is\nthat it classifies all the transactions recorded in the book of the Journal.\nClassification refers to grouping the transactions of same nature at one place,\nin a separate account. Classification of transactions is done in the books of\n\u2018Ledger\u2019. All the accounts related to creditors, debtors, capital, assets,\nliabilities, incomes and expenses are separately opened in the Ledger Book.\nExample: Wages Account, Ram Account, Advertisement Account, Cash Account, Bank\nOverdraft Account etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SUMMARISING_THE_TRANSACTIONS\"><\/span><strong>SUMMARISING THE TRANSACTIONS:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Summarizing is the art of presenting\nthe classified data in a manner which is understandable and useful to\nmanagement and other users of such data. It involves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Balancing of Ledger Accounts<\/li><li>Preparation of Trial Balance<\/li><li>Preparation of Trading and Profit &amp;\nLoss A\/c<\/li><li>Preparation of Balance Sheet<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Trial Balance is a summary of all the\nledger accounts and is maintained to check the arithmetical accuracy of\naccounts. Trading Account is prepared to find out the Gross Profit or Gross\nLoss while Profit &amp; Loss Account helps in knowing Net Profit or Net Loss. Balance\nSheet prepared at the end of accounting year helps in knowing the financial\nposition of the concern. It shows the Profitability, Solvency as well as\nLiquidity position of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ANALYSING\"><\/span><strong>ANALYSING:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Analyzing is concerned with the\nestablishment of relationship between the various items or groups of items\ntaken from Income Statement or Balance Sheet or both. Purpose of analysis is to\nidentify he financial strengths and weaknesses of the enterprise. It provides\nthe base for analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"INTERPRETATION_OF_RESULTS\"><\/span><strong>INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Another feature of accounting is\ninterpretation of results. Interpretation of results is concerned with\nexplaining the meaning and significance of the relationship so established by\nthe analysis. Interpretation of results requires high degree of knowledge and\nskills. The accountant should answer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>What has happened?<\/li><li>Why is happened?<\/li><li>What is likely to happen under\nspecified conditions?&nbsp; <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"COMMUNICATING_THE_RESULTS\"><\/span><strong>COMMUNICATING THE RESULTS:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Accounting is so featured that it will provide the analyzed and interpreted results to its users such as Management, Employees, Creditors, Research Scholars, Debtors, Financial Institutions, Competitors, Bankers, Income Tax Authorities etc. The results are communicated by preparing final accounts, ratios, graphs, diagrams, charts, fund flow statement, cash flow statement etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Also Study<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Also
