How to “spend” your bottom line correctly

As you know, the net profit (NP) of the company is distributed by the owners. But whatever their decision, the accountant must reflect it in the accounting and reporting. The catch is that accounting regulations only talk about how to calculate profits. p. 83 of the Regulations, approved. By order of the Ministry of Finance dated July 29, 1998 No. 34n... During the year, it is accumulated on the credit of account 99 "Profits and losses", and when drawing up the annual financial statements, the amount of net profit is debited from account 99 on the credit of account 84 "Retained earnings". The credit balance on account 84 is your retained earnings (URP). But practically nothing is said about how to “spend” profit in accounting regulations, there is only a mention in the Chart of Accounts.

The procedure for the distribution of PE is established by the Laws on JSC and LLC sub. 11 p. 1 of art. 48 of the Law of 26.12.95 No. 208-FZ (hereinafter - the Law on JSC); sub. 7 p. 2 art. 33 of the Law of 08.02.98 No. 14-FZ (hereinafter - the Law on LLC)... At the same time, joint-stock companies are obliged to send part of the state of emergency to the reserve fund, and LLCs can do this at will nn. 1, 2 tbsp. 35 of the Law on JSC; clause 1 of Art. 30 of the LLC Law... The rest of the profit can be distributed by shareholders (participants) at their own discretion. So, subject to certain conditions, they can send profits to pay dividend in articles 42, 43 of the Law on JSC; clause 1 of Art. 28, art. 29, item 1 of Art. 30 of the LLC Law... And sometimes the owners decide to send the state of emergency to purchase new fixed assets or pay bonuses to employees. But the Laws on JSCs and LLCs do not say how, in these cases, to reflect the distribution of the NPL in accounting.

To understand this issue, let's first talk about what an NPF is in terms of reporting.

What is capital and profit

Retained earnings are part of the capital of the organization, it is reflected in section III "Capital and reserves" of the balance sheet.

The standards set rules only for recognizing assets and liabilities, and capital is the arithmetic difference between them. There are no capital accounting rules in either RAS or IFRS.

In turn, profit is the difference between income and expenses and clause 7 of IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements".

As in the case of capital, the standards set only the rules for accounting for income and expenses, and profit is a derived value.

Accounting for income is regulated by a special PBU 9/99 standard, and expenses - PBU 10/99. Moreover, the concepts of "income" and "expenses" are also defined using the categories "assets" and "liabilities".

So, the income of an organization is an increase in its economic benefits as a result of the receipt of assets or the repayment of obligations, with the exception of the participant's contributions to p. 2 PBU 9/99... As can be seen from the formula for calculating capital, capital increases as a result of the receipt of assets or the repayment of liabilities.

An organization's expenses are, on the contrary, a decrease in its economic benefits as a result of the disposal of assets and (or) the emergence of liabilities, with the exception of a decrease in contributions by the decision of the participants (property owners) p. 2 PBU 10/99... As a result of the disposal of assets or the occurrence of liabilities, the equity of the entity decreases.

Of course, these are only general definitions of income and expenses, for their recognition it is necessary to comply with certain conditions established in PBU 9/99 and 10/99, but we will not consider them in this article.

Note that an increase or decrease in the economic benefits of an organization resulting from transactions with its owners (for example, the payment of dividends) is not recognized as either income or expenses. True, this is directly stated only in IFRS, but in fact this rule also applies in RAS. clause 109 of IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements".

CONCLUSION

Capital, including IUU, is not the property of the organization, but abstract financial categories, which represent the arithmetic difference between assets and liabilities (income and expenses).

We distribute profit

The question arises: if profit is not money, but an abstract indicator financial statements, then how can it be distributed or "spent" on something? Conventionally, we can say that profit is "wasted" when its value in the balance sheet decreases. This happens when dividends are paid and a reserve fund is created. Consider these and other options for distributing profits, as well as their impact on reporting indicators.

Dividend

The most common way of distributing profits is by paying dividends. As we have already said, the outflow of assets in connection with the payment of dividends is not recognized as an expense of the organization. Therefore, the accrual of dividends to participants is directly related to the reduction of the NPL and the capital of the organization, reflected by the entry: debit of account 84 "Retained earnings (uncovered loss)" - credit of account 75 "Settlements with founders".

For information on how to correctly calculate and pay dividends to LLC participants, read:

Dividends can be paid in cash or property, but in any case, the payment of dividends will reduce the assets of the organization and clause 1 of Art. 42 of the Law on JSC... When paying in money, the transaction will be as follows: debit of account 75 "Settlements with founders" - credit of account 51 "Settlement accounts". And the payment of dividends by property (for example, goods) is reflected as a sale by entries:

  • debit of account 76 “Settlements with different debtors and creditors” - credit of account 90-1 “Revenue” - revenue from the sale of goods transferred as dividends is recognized;
  • debit of account 90-2 "Cost of sales" - credit of account 41 "Goods" - the cost of goods is written off;
  • debit of account 75 "Settlements with founders" - credit of account 76 "Settlements with various debtors and creditors" - the debt to the participant for the payment of dividends is offset.

CONCLUSION

The distribution of profit on dividends leads to a decrease in capital (including line 1370 of the IUP) and assets.

Reserve fund

As we have already said, JSCs are obliged to create a reserve fund. Its size should be at least 5% of the authorized capital of the company, and the charter of a joint-stock company may determine a larger size of the fund yes clause 1 of Art. 35 of the Law on JSC... If the LLC creates a reserve fund, then its size is determined exclusively by the charter clause 1 of Art. 30 of the LLC Law.

The reserve fund is created by posting: debit of account 84 "Retained earnings (uncovered loss)" - credit of account 82 "Reserve capital". And it is reflected in the balance sheet on line 1360 in section III "Capital and reserves".

Thus, from the point of view of financial reporting, the creation of a reserve fund leads to a redistribution of amounts within section III of the balance sheet (part of the NPL is, as it were, “shifted” to another item of capital). As a result of this redistribution, the structure of the organization's balance sheet is improving. After all, only the NPO can be distributed to dividends, and the reserve fund will remain in the capital, theoretically, forever. Since, despite what is written in the Laws on JSCs and LLCs, it is impossible to spend the reserve capital. And in the asset of the balance sheet the resources (property, money) provided by the organization's own funds correspond to the reserve fund, which is certainly good.

From a financial (but not legal) point of view, the reserve fund can be compared with authorized capital... It is no accident that in the Law on JSCs, when it comes to the requirements for the structure of the balance sheet (for example, when deciding on the payment of dividends), the reserve fund is mentioned along with the authorized capital. For example, on the day the decision is made to pay dividends, net assets should not be less than the amount of the authorized and reserve capital a clause 1 of Art. 43 of the Law on JSC.

The reserve fund can be used to cover losses if the owners have made such a decision. On the date of its acceptance, the following entries are made: debit of account 82 "Reserve capital" - credit of account 84 "Retained earnings (uncovered loss)". The decision by the owners to pay off losses at the expense of reserve capital must be disclosed in the notes to the statements and p. 10 PBU 7/98... As you understand, as a result of using the reserve fund, as well as when creating it, the capital of the organization will not change. Covering losses at the expense of the reserve fund has rather a psychological effect - a “break-even” balance sheet looks more attractive to investors.

In addition, according to the Law on Joint Stock Companies, the funds of the reserve fund can be used to redeem bonds and buy back shares. However, in our opinion, this statement does not make sense. After all, to pay off bonds (or buy back shares) means paying money to their holder. Consequently, only assets can be directed to the redemption and redemption of securities, and not an item of capital.

The issue of bonds is reflected in the same way as raising a loan, by posting to the debit of account 51 "Settlement accounts" and the credit of account 66 "Settlements for short-term loans and borrowings" p. 1 PBU 15/2008.

Accordingly, the redemption of bonds is reflected by the entry: debit of account 66 "Settlements for short-term loans and borrowings" - credit of account 51 "Settlement accounts". As a result, assets and liabilities in the balance sheet simultaneously decrease. Capital items are not affected by this operation. True, in the commentary to account 82 of the Instructions for the application of the Chart of Accounts, it is said that the repayment of bonds at the expense of the reserve fund is reflected by the entry: debit of account 82 "Reserve capital" - credit of account 66 "Settlements on short-term loans and borrowings." However, one cannot agree with this. After all, as we already said, the credit of account 66 reflects the issue of bonds, and not their redemption.

CONCLUSION

The creation of a reserve fund at the expense of private individuals and its use to pay off losses leads to a redistribution of amounts within capital items. It is impossible to use the reserve fund for other purposes (for example, to redeem bonds).

Accumulation and consumption funds

Occasionally, owners want to use the NPO to purchase new fixed assets, to pay bonuses to employees, or to charity. Usually in such cases they decide to create so-called accumulation and consumption funds.

The accountant needs to reflect the decision of the owners in the accounting. But how to do it, because such funds are not mentioned either in the Laws on JSCs and LLCs, or in the current accounting regulations. Let's say right away that you can not create any funds in the accounting.

TELLING THE PARTICIPANTS

Clean profit can only be spent on dividends. It is not necessary to create consumption and accumulation funds from net profit, since “real” money is still spent on the acquisition of assets, not profit.

The very concept of funds from profit came to us from Soviet accounting. For example, Soviet enterprises created production development funds, the funds of which were used to purchase new equipment. The Instruction to the 1985 Chart of Accounts states that the funds of such a fund intended for the purchase of equipment must be kept in the bank in a special account.
