Accounting (ACCG): A systematic way of recording and reporting financial transactions for a business or organization.

Asset: Property owned by a person or company, regarded as having value and available to meet debts, commitments or legacies.

Audit: A formal examination of an organization's or individual's accounts or financial situation

Buyer: Someone whose job is to choose and buy the goods that a store will sell

Cash Flow (CF): The revenue or expense expected to be generated through business activities (sales, manufacturing, etc.) over a period of time.

Contract: A written or spoken agreement, especially one concerning employment, sales, or tenancy, that is intended to be enforceable by law.

Deferred Revenue: Deferred revenue is a liability related to a revenue-producing activity for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Generally, an entity records deferred revenue when it receives consideration from a customer before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP.

Distinct: To be distinct, a good or service must meet two criteria: It must be capable of being distinct, and. It must be separately identifiable or “distinct within the context of the contract”

Expected Value Method: The expected value method is the sum of probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible consideration amounts; this method may be appropriate in circumstances when variable consideration has to be estimated for multiple outcomes or when there is a large number of contracts that involve variable consideration.

Expense: Offset (an item of expenditure) as an expense against taxable income.

Fair Value: Fair value is a broad measure of an asset's worth and is not the same as market value, which refers to the price of an asset in the marketplace. In accounting, fair value is a reference to the estimated worth of a company's assets and liabilities that are listed on a company's financial statement.

Financial Statement: Financial statements (or financial reports) are formal records of the financial activities and position of a business, person, or other entity. ... A balance sheet or statement of financial position, reports on a company's assets, liabilities, and owners equity at a given point in time.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP): A set of rules and guidelines developed by the accounting industry for companies to follow when reporting financial data. Following these rules is especially critical for all publicly traded companies.

Input Method: The input method measures the efforts or materials expended to satisfy the obligation.

Interest : Interest is the charge for the privilege of borrowing money, typically expressed as annual percentage rate (APR). Interest can also refer to the amount of ownership a stockholder has in a company, usually expressed as a percentage.

Invoice: An invoice, bill or tab is a commercial document issued by a seller to a buyer, relating to a sale transaction and indicating the products, quantities, and agreed prices for products or services the seller had provided the buyer. Payment terms are usually stated on the invoice.

Liability: In financial accounting, a liability is defined as the future sacrifices of economic benefits that the entity is obliged to make to other entities as a result of past transactions or other past events, the settlement of which may result in the transfer or use of assets, provision of services or other yielding of economic benefits in the future.

Like-Kind Exchange: A like-kind exchange under United States tax law, also known as a 1031 exchange, is a transaction or series of transactions that allows for the disposal of an asset and the acquisition of another replacement asset without generating a current tax liability from the sale of the first asset.

Most Likely Amount Method: The most likely amount method is the single most likely amount in a range of possible consideration amounts, that is, the single most likely outcome of the contract; this method may be appropriate in circumstances when the number of outcomes is limited (for example, two possible outcomes).

Non-Profit Organizations (NPO): A nonprofit organization (NPO) or non-profit organisation, also known as a non-business entity, or nonprofit institution, is a legal entity organized and operated for a collective, public or social benefit, in contrary with an entity that operates as a business aiming to generate a profit for its owners.

Noncash Consideration : Noncash consideration is measured on the date of contract inception at its fair value. If fair value is not determinable, the standalone selling price of the goods or services should be used.

Output Method: The output method measures the results achieved and value transferred to a customer.

Pro Rata: Pro rata refers to a proportional allocation. Under this approach, amounts are assigned based on each participant's proportional share of the whole. In accounting, this means revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, or other items are proportionally allocated among participants.

Revenue: In accounting, revenue is the income that a business has from its normal business activities, usually from the sale of goods and services to customers. Revenue is also referred to as sales or turnover. Some companies receive revenue from interest, royalties, or other fees.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue recognition is an accounting principle that outlines the specific conditions under which revenue. In accounting, the terms "sales" and "revenue" can be, and often are, used interchangeably, to mean the same thing. Revenue does not necessarily mean cash received.

Sale and Leaseback: A "sale/leaseback" or "sale and leaseback" is a transaction in which the owner of a property sells an asset, typically real estate, and then leases it back from the buyer. In this way, the transaction functions as a loan, with payments taking the form of rent.

Transaction: In QuickBooks, a transaction type identifies what kind of transaction occurred, such as a customer transaction, bill payment or a bank transfer. When you submit a transaction, you type in a transaction code to represent it.

Transaction Price: The price of a good or service expressed relative to the same quantity of another good or service. Transaction prices help distinguish price changes due to inflation from real price changes.

Variable Consideration: Variable consideration is defined broadly and can take many forms, such as price concessions, rebates or refunds. Consideration is also considered variable if the amount an entity will receive is contingent on a future event occurring or not occurring, even though the amount itself is fixed.
