Accounting basically involves identification, anasysis, recording, classifying, summarising, interpreting and communicating information regarding business transactions, interested persons.
Its features are:
1. Identification and recording of business transactions and events.
2. Summarisation and interpretation of accounting information.
3. Communicating the information to the interested persons such as investors, creditors, owners, government, research scholars, tax authorities etc.
Accounting can be done in two ways: 1. Manual Accounting - Done by clerks or accountants with a lot of books and registers. (Without using computers) 2. Computerised Accounting - Doing the accounting work with the help of computers (Accounting softwares such as Tally, Peech Tree etc)
Transactions are posted in Tally software so that we get processed accounting information instantly in the form of statements, graphs, ratios etc.
