Matching vs. Materiality
The matching
principle requires
expenses to be
reported in the same
accounting period as
the sales they help
produce.
The materiality
constraint states that
an amount can be
ignored if its effect
on the financial
statements is
unimportant to
users’ business
decisions.
7-19
P2
Allowance Method
At the end of each period, estimate total bad debts
expected to be realized from that period’s sales.
There are two advantages to the allowance method:
1. It records estimated bad debts expense in the
period when the related sales are recorded.
2. It reports accounts receivable on the balance
sheet at the estimated amount of cash to be
collected.

At the end of its first year of operations, Barton Co.
estimates that $3,000 of its accounts receivable will prove

On September 30, 2011, Evans Company sells a machine that

in service on January 1, 2009. It was depreciated using the
straight-line method with an estimated salvage value of $20,000
and a useful life of 10 years.
Annual depreciation ($100,000 - $20,000) ÷ 10 Yrs. = $8,000
