This results in an accounting process impacted by the time period (or periodicity) assumption. The time period assumption presumes that an organization’s activities can be divided into specific time periods such as a month, a three-month quarter, a six-month interval, or a year. Most organizations use a year as their primary accounting period. Many organizations also prepare interim financial statements covering one, three, or six months of activity. When we divide business activities into arbitrary fixed periods of time, it is often necessary to have special accounting for transactions that cross from one time period to the next. Most of our time will be spent looking at the special adjusting process for some of these transactions. Accrual Basis
