capitalizing costs means adding to the price paid for the asset-all related expenses like erection costs etc.once a cost is capitalized,it gets added to the asset cost and gets depreciated annually till the asset is fully written off.this way such costs do not figure in the profit&loss ac as usual costs for charge but enter p&l ac as depreciation.

Market capitalization is the amount a company is worth according to the market (i.e., the stock market). It is calculated by taking the number of shares of the stock outstanding (there are a certain number of shares that can be bought and sold on the market) and multiplying it by the price of that stock.\n\nFor example, say Company A has 1 Million shares of stock outstanding. The price of the stock closes at $5.00 at the end of trading today. The Market Capitalization is 1 Million x $5.00 = $5 Million.

Broadly, accounting is defined as the systematic recording, reporting, and analysis of financial transactions of a business. \n\nThere are different types of accounting, namely: Financial Accounting, Tax Accounting, Cost Accounting and Managerial Accounting.\n\nFINANCIAL ACCOUNTING is defined as “measuring and recording business transactions and providing financial statements that are based on generally accepted accounting principles. It focuses on external reporting. \n\nFinancial statements (financial data) tell us (1) the financial position of an entity at a certain date and (2) the results of its operations (profit/loss) and the changes in its financial position and variations in stockholder's equity (investment) in a period of time. (Historical information/past events).\n\nFinancial accounting aims at satisfying the interest of the "general user" which may include: shareholders, government agencies, creditors, and the general public.\n\nMANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING. Measures and reports financial and non-financial information that helps MANAGERS make decisions to fulfill the goals of an organization. It focuses on internal reporting. \n\nCOST ACCOUNTING is an information system that classifies, accumulates, controls and assigns costs to determine costs of activities, processess or products, facilitating decision making and managerial planning and control.\n\nCost accounting plays a role in both managerial and financial accounting. Some authors describe Cost Accounting as a unifying point between Managerial and Financial Accounting.\n\nTAX ACCOUNTING is used to communicate information to the appropriate taxing authorities. Generally, the Internal Revenue Service and state tax or revenue boards. It includes the procedures for determining taxes payable and compliance with other provisions of tax laws.\n\nHope this helps...

In economics, business, and accounting, a cost is the value of inputs that have been used up to produce something, and hence are not available for use anymore. In business, the cost may be one of acquisition, in which case the amount of money expended to acquire it is counted as cost. In this case, money is the input that is gone in order to acquire the thing. This acquisition cost may be the sum of the cost of production as incurred by the original producer, and further costs of transaction as incurred by the acquirer over and above the price paid to the producer. Usually, the price also includes a mark-up for profit over the cost of production.\n\nEffectiveness means the capability of, or success in, achieving a given goal. Contrary to efficiency, the focus of effectiveness is the achievement as such, not the resources spent, so anything that is effective is not necessarily efficient.\n\nAn ordinary way to distinguish between effectiveness and efficiency:\n\neffectiveness: doing the "right" things \nefficiency: doing the things "right"

You need to make a companies capital budget? well you have to start with a sales projection and work backwards. After you estimate how much you will produce, you will need to figure out how much it will cost to produce it and of course, you want to have a profit left over. Any managerial accounting text book will have a chapter outlining this in detail, head to the library!

It means they paid you back...but, they paid you too much!  So, you still owe again!!!\n\nI would get with my Accountant or whom ever is paying your taxes and tell them to get on the ball and straighten this thing out... \n\nApparently they are not paying attention if your paying 2 - 3 times what you should be.. Or I would be seeking a different Accountant  PDQ!!!\n\nI wish you well..\n\nJesse

1.      In accounting it is the concept of seprate entity. It means business is the separate entity and the owner is a seprate entity regardless how small or large is the business.\n2.      When that concept is clear then think that business firm is an artificial person as like you are or any common man.\n3.      As you have to pay and receive money regardless you have received or paid to your mother. In the same way the firm has to pay the amount that you have invested in it as an owner.\n\nSo, the amount the firm has to pay is a credit so owner's capital is also a credit that the firm has to pay to the owner.\nBut it is showed under owner's equity cap.

There are three ways to account for investments - four if you're being really picky. \n\n1.  A "subsidiary" is where it's parent company owns 50% or more (and has management control).  A subsidiary is consolidated into the parent company's financial statements.  \n\n2.  An "associate" is 20-50% owned, with the parent company not having management control. An associate is reported using equity accounting.\n\n3.  "Cost" accounting is typically used on investments where the parent owns less than 20%.  The investment is reported at the lower of cost or market.  \n\n4. If an investment is held for sale or as inventory, the investment is reported at market.

Perhaps they mean the ledgers or the account books that you actually use to keep a running total of income and expenditure... If so, you need to describe how and why they are used and include some example pages from account books themselves.... Check with tutor or teacher just to make sure.
