4、ion （會計職業(yè)）、accounting elements （會計要素）等。Accountant比Account只多ant三個字母，其意思是會計師、會計人員。例如：In A certified public accountant or CPA. as the term is usually abbreviated, must pass a series of examinations, after which he or she receives a certificate.注冊會計師（或，注冊會計師的縮寫），必須通過一系列考試方可取得證書。2、Private accountant, als

5、o called executive or administrative accountant, handle the financial records of a business.私人會計師，也叫做主管或行政會計師，負責處理公司的財務(wù)帳目?？傊?，這三個詞，有很深的淵 源關(guān)系。Assets Liabilities /口 Owners Equity這三個詞分別是資產(chǎn)、負債和所有者權(quán)益，是會計等式的三個要素。Assets這個詞表示資產(chǎn)時一定要用復數(shù)形式，即詞尾要有“s”。如果不用復數(shù)形式，就成為，寶物， 天賦、技能”的意思。例如：1、Assets are properties that are

6、owned and have monetary values； for instance, cash, inventory，buildings, equipment.資產(chǎn)是指企業(yè)所擁有的、具有貨幣價值的財產(chǎn)，如現(xiàn)金、存貨、建筑物、設(shè)備。2、Assets are the economic resources that are owned or controlled by a business and can be expressed in monetaiy units.資產(chǎn)是由企業(yè)擁有或控制并能用貨幣計量的經(jīng)濟資源。3、 Assets can be classified into current

7、 assets and non-current assets .資產(chǎn)可以劃分為流動資產(chǎn)和非流動資產(chǎn)。Liabilities是liability的復數(shù)形式。它的意思是法律上的責任、義務(wù)。如liability for an accident （肇 事的責任）；liability to pay taxes （納稅的義務(wù)）。只有其為復數(shù)形式liabilities時才表示負債、債務(wù) 的意思。例如：1、Liabilities are the obligations or debt that a business must pay in money or services at some time in t

8、he future.負債是指將來需用貨幣或®務(wù)償還的債務(wù)或履行的義務(wù)。2、 Liabilities are amounts owned to outsiders, such as notes payable, accounts payable, bonds payable.負債是欠外部的數(shù)額，如應(yīng)付票據(jù)、應(yīng)付帳款、應(yīng)付債券。Owner's equity是由owner （所有者、業(yè)主）和equity （權(quán)益）構(gòu)成為業(yè)主權(quán)益”。例如：1、Owner's equity represents tlie owner's interest in or claim upon

9、 a business net assets which is the defeiwce between the amount of assets and the amount of liabilities.業(yè)主權(quán)益代表業(yè)主對企業(yè)凈資產(chǎn)的權(quán)益或要求權(quán)，凈資產(chǎn)是指企業(yè)的資產(chǎn)總額與負債之間的差額。2、Capital is the interest of the owners in an eiiteiprise. Also known as owner's equity 資本是企業(yè)所有者的利益，也稱為業(yè)主權(quán)益。3、Owner's equity include owner “s inv

10、estment in a business and acciunulated operating results since the beginning of the operation.業(yè)主權(quán)益包括業(yè)主的投資以及企業(yè)自開業(yè)以來積累的經(jīng)營成果。上述會計要素相互之間的關(guān)系用一個簡單的數(shù)學公式來表示，就是會”恒等式：Assets=LiabilitiesX）wner's equity資產(chǎn)=負債+業(yè)主權(quán)益Debit、Credit 和 Double EntryDebit和credit就是會計復式記帳法中常用的兩個記帳符號借即貨，。Debit的意義比較單純，就是簿記上的“借方如。但是，很容易與另一

11、個詞debt混淆。debt比debit 只少一個字母I，而且意思也相近，有“借款,的意思，如the national debt （國債）。Credit的漢語意思比較多，有“信用、信譽、名聲、名譽，的意思，還有“掛帳、賒帳”的意思，在簿記 上就是“貸方噫思。由于這兩個詞匯在會計學上總是一起出現(xiàn)，就把他們放到一起來舉例說明，加深印象。1、When an amount is entered on the left of an account, it is a debit, and the account is said to be debited . The abbreviation for deb

12、it is Dr.當一個數(shù)額記在帳戶的左邊，它就是借方記錄，稱這個帳戶被借記?！敖璺?，的縮寫是“Dr”。2、 When an amount is entered on the right side , it is a credit, and the account is said to be credited. Tlie abbreviation for credit is Cr.當一個數(shù)額記在帳戶的右邊，它就是貸方記錄，稱這個帳戶被貸記。“貸方的縮寫是Cr.。3、Making an entiy in the"aniount“ column on the left hand side

13、 of ail account means “Debit” （abbreviated Dr.） and to the contrast, means “Ciedit”（abbre«ated Cr.）.記入帳戶的左邊“金額”欄稱為借記”該帳戶（簡寫為Dr）,與此相反，則為，貸記”該帳戶（簡寫為Cr.）o4、 By convention ,assets and expense increases are recorded as debits while liability, capital and income increases are recorded as credits.根據(jù)慣例

14、，資產(chǎn)和費用的增加被記為借項，而負債、資本和收入的增加被記為貸項。5、Assets and expense decreases are recorded as credits, while liability s capital and income decreases are recorded as debits.資產(chǎn)和費用的減少被記為貸項，而負債、資本和收入的減少被記為借項。6、Where there are only two accounts affected, the debit and credit amounts are equal. If more than two accoun

15、ts are affected, the total of the debit entiles must equal tlie total of the credit entries.在只有兩個帳戶被影響時，借貸雙方的數(shù)額是相等的，如果涉及兩個以上帳戶時，借項的總數(shù)必須 與記入貸項的總數(shù)相等。Double entty （復式記帳）是會計學上的專有詞匯。例如：In double entry accounting, which is in almost universal use, there are equal debit and credit entries for every transac

16、tion.在復式記帳會計（幾乎普遍使用）中，每筆交易的借方和貸方記入的數(shù)字相等。Ledgers 和 JournalsLedgers在簿記上是分類帳的意思，可以和其他詞匯搭配，構(gòu)成許多會計詞匯。如ledger accounts （分 類帳戶）、general ledger （總分類帳）、subsidiary ledger （明細分類帳）等。例如：1、Ledger accounts aie used to recoi-d business transactions' effect on an accotuiting entity.分類帳戶被用來記錄交易對會計主體的影響。2、A ledger

17、 account is simply a recoixl of changes （increase and decrease） and balances in value of a specific accounting item.分類帳戶不過是特定會計項目價值的變動（增加與減少）和結(jié)余的記錄。3、The general ledger is the book used to list all the accounts established by ail organization.總分類帳是一本列出一個單位所設(shè)立的全部帳戶的帳本。4、Further simplification of the

18、general ledger is brought about by the use of subsidiary ledger.使用明細分類帳使總分類帳更加簡化明了。5、The advantages of subsidiary ledger are as following： （1）reduces ledger detail ； （2）pennits better division of labor； （3） pennits a different sequence of accounts ； （4） pennits better internal control。明細分類帳的優(yōu)點如下；（1）

19、減少分類帳的細節(jié)；（2）使勞動分工更合理；（3）允許不同的帳戶 排序（4）便于更好地內(nèi)部控制。Journal比較常用的意思是“日記、日志；雜志、刊牧T,如keep a journal （記日志）、a ship、journal （航 海日志）,a monthly journal （月刊）,單詞diary也有“日記”的意思，但journal比diary更強調(diào)“正式 記錄”。Journal在會計詞匯上的意思是舊記帳”。例如：In In a western accounting system ,the infbnnation about each business transaction is ini

20、tially recorded in an accounting record called a Journal.在西方會計體系中，有關(guān)每筆經(jīng)濟交易的資料最初是記在一本叫做“日記帳”的會計帳上。2、A journal is a chronological（an-ange in order of time） record of business transactions.日記帳是對經(jīng)濟交易的序時（即按時間的順序）記錄。3、In a journal entry, the debits and credits for given transaction are recorded together,

21、but when the transaction is recorded in the ledger, the debits and credits are entered in different accounts.在日記帳上記帳時，既定交易的借方和貸方一起被記錄，但在分類帳記錄中，一筆交易的借方和 貸方進入不同的帳戶中。4、 A journal may be a general journal or it may be a group of special journals.日記帳可以是一本通用日記帳，也可以是一組特種日記帳。Current assets x fixed assets 和

22、Current liabilitiesCurrent是一個很有意思的詞匯。它既可以是形容詞，也可以是名詞。作為形容詞，current意 思是“通用的、流通的，現(xiàn)在的“，如current money （通貨），current English （現(xiàn)代英語），current fashion （目前流行的風尚）；作為名詞，cunent的意思是“水流、氣流，電流，動向、潮流”，如thecui-rentof a river （河的水流），the cold current （寒流），a direct cuirent （直流電），tlie current of public opinion （輿論的動向）。在

23、這里，還要特別提到英國的兩種存款cui代nt account （活期存款，也相當于美國 銀行中的checking account ）和deposit account （儲蓄存款，也相當于美國銀行中的savings account ）。如果你到英國銀行對柜員說：“Could you 忙 11 me what sorts of accounts there are ?”（您能 告訴我有幾種什么存款嗎？）銀行柜員就會說：“Wbll, there are basically two types of accounts .There's a current account and a depos

24、it account. With the current account you can pay for tilings by cheque, but you don't earn any interest. With the deposit accoiuit ,you earn interest,but you caii,t pay for tilings by cheque.” （基本上有兩種存款，一種活期存款，一種儲蓄存款；活期存款你可以用支票支付，但沒有利息； 儲蓄存款可以掙到利息，但不能用支票支付。）Cunent assets就是流動資產(chǎn)例如：1、Cuirent assets

25、 are the assets reasonably expected to be converted into cash or used in the current operation of the business.（The current period is generally taken as one year.） Examples are cash, notes receivable, accounts receivable, inventory, and prepaid expenses.流動資產(chǎn)指的是有充分理由認為在當期經(jīng)營活動中轉(zhuǎn)換成現(xiàn)金或被使用的資產(chǎn)（一般是一年期）?，F(xiàn) 金

26、、應(yīng)收票據(jù)、應(yīng)收帳款、存貨以及預(yù)付的費用都屬于流動資產(chǎn)。說到流動資產(chǎn)，就不能不提到另一個詞匯fixed assets （固定資產(chǎn)）。例如：2、Fixed assets are the long-lived assets used in the production of goods or services. Tliese assets, sometime called non-current assets, are used in the operation of business rather than being held for sale.固定資產(chǎn)是在產(chǎn)品和服務(wù)的生產(chǎn)過程中使用的壽命較長

27、的資產(chǎn)。這些資產(chǎn)有時稱為非流動資產(chǎn)，是 公司經(jīng)營中為了使用而不是為銷售而置備的資產(chǎn)。Cunent liabilities就是“流動負債例如：3、Cuirent liabilities . Debts which must be satisfied from cuirent assets within the next operating period, usually one year. Examples are accounts payable, notes payable, the current portion of long-tenn debt, and various accrued

28、 items such as salaries payable and taxes payable.流動負債。在下一個經(jīng)營期間，通常是一年內(nèi)必須用流動資產(chǎn)償還的債務(wù)。應(yīng)付帳款、應(yīng)付票據(jù)、 長期債務(wù)的當期分攤額，以及諸如應(yīng)付工資和應(yīng)付稅款等種種應(yīng)計項目都是流動負債。Receivable、Payable 和 Prepaid將Receivable和Payable兩個詞稍加比較，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)它們后面的四個字母相同，都有-able ,這 是英語詞匯構(gòu)成的后綴之一。這個詞綴緊接在動詞之后，使動詞變成形容詞，表示能夠、適于、 可、應(yīng)Receive （收到、接受）加上-able成為receivable,其意義也相

29、應(yīng)成為“能收的、-應(yīng)收 的"；同樣pay （付款、支付）加上-able也相應(yīng)成為，應(yīng)付的”。這里要特別提到的是，動詞后綴有-able 所形成的形容詞，和一般形容詞不同，在修飾名詞時，它不在名詞之前而在名詞之后。例如accounts receivable （應(yīng)收帳款）、accounts payable （應(yīng)付帳款）、notes receivable （應(yīng)收票據(jù)）、notes payable （應(yīng) 付票據(jù)）。下面舉出幾個句子來操練一下這幾個會計詞匯：1、A business with many credit customers would set up the general ledge

30、r Accounts Receivable account for all credit customers and a separate account for each credit customer.有很多賒購客戶的企業(yè)應(yīng)設(shè)置一個應(yīng)收帳款總分類帳戶，登記所有賒購客戶欠的貨款，并為每 個賒購客戶設(shè)置一個明細帳戶。2、Accounts Receivable are often classified as current assets.應(yīng)收帳款通常歸入流動資產(chǎn)。3、Accounts receivable arise when a business sells goods and service

31、 on credit.當企業(yè)以賒帳方式俏售產(chǎn)品或提供服務(wù)時，就產(chǎn)生應(yīng)收帳款。4、A promissory note is regarded as notes receivable for the payee and notes payable for the maker.本票對受款人來說是應(yīng)收票據(jù)，對出票人來說則是應(yīng)付票據(jù)。5、Notes receivable which can be collected and converted into cash during next accounting year or operating cycle are classified as curren

32、t assets and are recorded at face value.能在下一個會計年度或下一個經(jīng)營周期收回和轉(zhuǎn)換成現(xiàn)金的應(yīng)收票據(jù)，歸入流動資產(chǎn)，并按面值 入帳。6、 Accounts payable and notes payable are typical example of current liabilities.應(yīng)付帳款和應(yīng)付票據(jù)是流動負債的典型例子。7、As stated above, accounts payable and notes payable are usually created by a company's economic activities,

33、 such as purchases of merchandise and services received in the nonnal course of business.如前所述，應(yīng)付帳款和應(yīng)付票據(jù)通常產(chǎn)生于企業(yè)的經(jīng)營活動，例如在正常經(jīng)營過程中的賒帳購 買商品和接受服務(wù)。Prepaid （預(yù)付的）這個詞和前面的Pay關(guān)系非常密切，實際上就是在pay的過去分詞paid前加 上一個前綴pm-，這個前綴表示前、預(yù)先”之意，合起來就是“預(yù)付的”。例如：8、Assume that a business paid a S1200 premitun on Apiil 1 for one year&#

34、39;s insurance in advance. This represents ail increase in one asset （prepaid expense） and a decrease in another asset （cash）. Thus, the entry would be:Dr. Prepaid ExpensesPrepaid Insurance $ 1200Cr. Cash$1200假設(shè)，一個公司4月1日支付了 1200美圓的保險費預(yù)付一年的保險費。這意味著一種資產(chǎn)（預(yù) 付費用）的增加，另一種資產(chǎn)（現(xiàn)金）的減少。因此，會計分錄應(yīng)為：借：預(yù)付費用一預(yù)付保險費120

35、0美圓貸：現(xiàn)金1200美圓Inventory （存貨）Inventoiy （存貨），在會計英語詞匯中是最基本的詞匯之一，與這個詞匯有關(guān)的詞匯，比如與存 貨計價有關(guān)的方法，在會計報表及其說明解釋中是經(jīng)常可以見到的，因此，就讓我們將它們放在一 起來漫談。例如：1、 Inventory must be measured at the acquisition cost in confbnnity with the historical cost principle. 存貨必須遵循歷史成本原則按取得成本計價。2、In manufacturing business there are three majo

36、r types of inventories: raw materials, goods in process of manufacture, and finished goods.對于工業(yè)企業(yè)而言，主要有三類存貨：原材料、半成品和產(chǎn)成品。下面這幾個都是存貨計價的專門詞匯，不能不談到。Specific identification method （個別辨認法）3、 Under the specific identification method, the specific actual cost is assigned to each unit.在個別辨認法下，要按每一存貨項目辨認實際成本。4

37、、Average-cost method （平均成本法）Average cost is computed by dividing the total cost of goods available for sale by the number of units available for sale.可供箱售的商品成本總值除以可供銷售的商品數(shù)量就得到平均單位成本。5、First-in, first-out method （先進先出法）Under the first-in, first-out method, it is assumed tliat the first units acquired

38、 are the first ones sold; ending inventory is valued at the most recent purchase prices.在先進先出法下，假設(shè)企業(yè)首先銷售最早購入的商品，期末存貨按最近的購貨價格計價。6、Last-in, first-out method （后進先出法）The title of this method suggests that the most recently acquired goods are sold first, and that die ending inventory consists of "ol

39、d" goods acquired in the earliest purchases.這種方法的名稱意味著最后購進的商品最先銷售出去，而期末存貨由那些最早購入的“老”存貨構(gòu) 成。請瀏覽后下載，資料供參考，期待您的好評與關(guān)注!Long-term Assets 和 Long-tenn liabilitiesLong-tenn （長期的）和 Assets、Liabilities 結(jié)合，分別構(gòu)成 Long-tenn assets （長期資產(chǎn)）和 Long-term liabilities （長期負債）。Long-tenn assets （長期資產(chǎn)）也有寫成 Long-lived assets 的，與 Fixed assets （固定資產(chǎn)）、Plant and equipment （廠房和設(shè)備），甚至還有property （財產(chǎn)）相互重疊。請看幾個例句：1、Long-term assets are characterized by higlily economic values, physical and nonphysical substance, usefi.il life of more than one accounting period.長期資產(chǎn)有如下特征：經(jīng)濟價值高，具有實物形態(tài)或不具有實物形態(tài)，使用年限超過一個會計期 間。2、Long-tenn ass
