Regulation on accounting "Expenses of the organization" PBU 10/99 establishes the rules for the formation in accounting of information on the expenses of commercial organizations (except credit and insurance).

At the same time, non-profit organizations (except for budgetary institutions) recognize expenses in accordance with this Regulation on entrepreneurial and other activities.

In accordance with the Regulations, the expenses of an organization are recognized as a decrease in economic benefits as a result of the disposal of assets (cash, other property) and (or) the incurrence of liabilities, leading to a decrease in the capital of this organization, with the exception of a decrease in contributions by decision of participants (property owners).

Depending on the nature, conditions of implementation and activities of the organization, the costs are divided into:

Ø expenses for ordinary activities (these are expenses associated with the manufacture of products and the sale of products, the purchase and sale of goods. Such expenses are also considered expenses, the implementation of which is associated with the performance of work, the provision of services, and the reimbursement of the cost of fixed assets, intangible assets and other depreciable assets carried out in the form of depreciation deductions;

Ø other expenses (other expenses are expenses associated with the provision for a fee for temporary use (temporary possession and use) of the organization's assets; expenses associated with the provision for a fee of rights arising from patents for inventions, industrial designs and other types of intellectual property; expenses, associated with participation in the authorized capital of other organizations; expenses associated with the sale, disposal and other write-off of fixed assets and other assets other than cash (except for foreign currency), goods, products; interest paid by the organization for providing it with cash ( credits, loans); expenses related to payment for services rendered by credit institutions; deductions to estimated reserves created in accordance with accounting rules (reserves for doubtful debts, for depreciation of investments in securities, etc.), as well as reserves created in connection with the recognition of conditional facts of an economic activity ness; fines, penalties, forfeits for violation of the terms of contracts; compensation for losses caused by the organization; losses of previous years recognized in the reporting year; the amount of receivables for which the limitation period has expired, other debts that are unrealistic to collect; exchange differences; the amount of depreciation of assets; transfer of funds (contributions, payments, etc.) related to charitable activities, expenses for the implementation of sports events, recreation, entertainment, cultural and educational events and other similar events; other expenses.;

When forming expenses for ordinary activities in the accounting of the organization, they must be grouped according to the following elements: material costs; labor costs; deductions for social needs; depreciation; other costs.

In accounting, the accounting of expenses is organized by cost items, the list of which is established by the organization independently.

Expenses are recognized in the reporting period in which they occurred, regardless of the time of the actual payment of funds and other form of implementation (assuming the temporal certainty of the facts of economic activity).

If in relation to any expenses incurred by the organization, at least one of the conditions listed in the Regulations (section IV, clause 16) is not fulfilled:

Ø the expense is made in accordance with a specific contract, the requirement of legislative and regulatory acts, business customs;

Ø The amount of expense can be determined;

Ø there is confidence that as a result of a particular operation there will be a decrease in the economic benefits of the organization.

Confidence that as a result of a specific transaction there will be a decrease in the economic benefits of the organization, there is a case when the organization has transferred an asset or there is no uncertainty regarding the transfer of an asset, then a receivable is recognized in the accounting records of the organization.

The Regulations pay special attention to the disclosure of information on the procedure for recognizing commercial, administrative and other expenses.

There is no special cost standard in the IFRS system, similar to PBU 10/99. Definitions of expenses and the conditions for their recognition in the financial statements are contained in the Principles for the preparation and presentation of financial statements.

RAS 10/99 unequivocally establishes the need to separate expenses into expenses for ordinary activities and other expenses. IFRS only mentions the existence of a generally accepted practice of cost sharing.

Both PBU 10/99 and the Principles proceed from the need to consider the nature of the operations and the subject matter of the organization's activities when determining whether certain expenses are expenses for ordinary activities or others.

At the same time, there are articles that PBU 10/99 unequivocally defines as other, without taking into account their nature and cause of occurrence, for example, expenses related to payment for services provided by credit institutions.

In IFRS, unlike RAS, it is not allowed to recognize income and, accordingly, expenses on a cash basis. The accrual method is used in RAS with restrictions.

The principle of comparing income and expenses. In contrast to PBU 10/99, the Principles impose rather severe restrictions on the application of the concept of comparability, since in any case, the criterion for separating assets and expenses is the possibility of obtaining future economic benefits. Unlike RAS, IFRS does not provide for the possibility of including excess expenses, overhead administrative and commercial expenses in the cost of inventories sold. These expenses are recognized immediately in the period in which they are incurred.

Conditions for the recognition of expenses. In IFRS, unlike RAS, there is no requirement mandatory compliance such a cost criterion as the existence of a contract, legal requirements or business practices. The most significant differences in cost estimates will arise from the time value of money factor in IFRS, as well as specific accounting principles contained in the relevant standards, for example, in the absence of useful life revisions.

The procedure for presenting information on expenses in the Profit and Loss Statement. Unlike RAS, IFRS does not require the mandatory separation of expenses in the Profit and Loss Statement depending on their functional purpose and gives you a choice.

Non-operating (fines, penalties, forfeits for violation of the terms of contracts; compensation for losses caused by the organization; exchange differences; the amount of depreciation of assets, except for non-current assets);

Extraordinary.

The costs of acquiring (creating) non-current assets are not recognized as expenses of the organization; contributions to the authorized capital of other organizations; transfer of funds for charitable purposes; under commission agreements; preliminary payment (advance payment, deposit against payment) of inventories and other valuables, works, services;

repayment of a loan or loan previously received by the organization, etc.

When forming expenses for ordinary activities in the accounting of the organization, they must be grouped according to the following elements: material costs; labor costs; deductions for social needs; depreciation; other costs.

5. Expenses for ordinary activities are expenses associated with the manufacture of products and the sale of products, the purchase and sale of goods. Such expenses are also considered expenses, the implementation of which is associated with the performance of work, the provision of services.

In organizations whose subject of activity is the provision for a fee for temporary use (temporary possession and use) of their assets under a lease agreement, expenses for ordinary activities are considered expenses, the implementation of which is associated with this activity.

In organizations whose subject of activity is the granting for a fee of rights arising from patents for inventions, industrial designs and other types of intellectual property, expenses for ordinary activities are considered expenses incurred in connection with this activity.

In organizations whose subject of activity is participation in the authorized capitals of other organizations, expenses for ordinary activities are considered expenses, the implementation of which is associated with this activity.

Expenses, the implementation of which is associated with the provision for a fee for temporary use (temporary possession and use) of their assets, rights arising from patents for inventions, industrial designs and other types of intellectual property, and from participation in the authorized capital of other organizations, when this is not the subject of the organization's activities are included in other expenses.

Expenses for ordinary activities are also considered to be the reimbursement of the cost of fixed assets, intangible assets and other depreciable assets carried out in the form of depreciation deductions.

6. Expenses for ordinary activities are accepted for accounting in an amount calculated in monetary terms, equal to the amount of payment in cash and in other form or the amount of accounts payable (subject to the provisions of paragraph 3 of this Regulation).

If the payment covers only part of the recognized expenses, then the expenses accepted for accounting are determined as the sum of the payment and accounts payable (in the part not covered by the payment).

6.1. The amount of payment and (or) accounts payable is determined based on the price and conditions established by the contract between the organization and the supplier (contractor) or other counterparty. If the price is not provided for in the contract and cannot be set on the basis of the terms of the contract, then to determine the amount of payment or accounts payable, the price at which, in comparable circumstances, the organization usually determines the costs in relation to similar inventories and other valuables, works, services is accepted. or provision for temporary use (temporary possession and use) of similar assets.

6.2. When paying for acquired inventories and other valuables, works, services on the terms of a commercial loan provided in the form of a deferral and installment payment, expenses are accepted for accounting in the full amount of accounts payable.

6.3. The amount of payment and (or) accounts payable under agreements providing for the fulfillment of obligations (payment) in non-monetary means is determined by the cost of goods (values) transferred or to be transferred by the organization. The cost of goods (values) transferred or to be transferred by the organization is established on the basis of the price at which, in comparable circumstances, the organization usually determines the cost of similar goods (values).

If it is impossible to establish the cost of goods (values) transferred or to be transferred by the organization, the amount of payment and (or) accounts payable under contracts providing for the fulfillment of obligations (payment) in non-monetary means is determined by the cost of products (goods) received by the organization. The cost of products (goods) received by the organization is established on the basis of the price at which, in comparable circumstances, similar products (goods) are purchased.

6.4. In the event of a change in the obligation under the contract, the initial amount of payment and (or) accounts payable is adjusted based on the value of the asset to be disposed of. The cost of an asset to be disposed of is based on the price at which an entity would normally charge similar assets in comparable circumstances.

6.5. The amount of payment and (or) accounts payable is determined taking into account all the discounts (capes) provided to the organization in accordance with the contract.

7. Expenses for ordinary activities form:

expenses associated with the acquisition of raw materials, materials, goods and other inventories;

expenses arising directly in the process of processing (refining) inventories for the purposes of manufacturing products, performing work and providing services and selling them, as well as selling (reselling) goods (expenses for the maintenance and operation of fixed assets and other non-current assets, as well as maintaining them in good condition, selling expenses, management expenses, etc.).

8. When forming expenses for ordinary activities, their grouping according to the following elements should be ensured:

material costs;

labor costs;

deductions for social needs;

depreciation;

other costs.

For the purposes of management in accounting, accounting of expenses by cost items is organized. The list of cost items is established by the organization independently.

9. For the purposes of formation by the organization of the financial result of activities from ordinary activities, the cost of goods sold, products, works, services is determined, which is formed on the basis of expenses for ordinary activities recognized both in the reporting year and in previous reporting periods, and passing expenses related to the receipt of income in subsequent reporting periods, subject to adjustments depending on the specifics of the production of products, the performance of work and the provision of services and their sale, as well as the sale (resale) of goods.

At the same time, commercial and administrative expenses may be recognized in the cost of sold products, goods, works, services in full in the reporting year of their recognition as expenses for ordinary activities.

10. The rules for accounting for costs for the production of products, the sale of goods, the performance of work and the provision of services in the context of elements and articles, the calculation of the cost of products (works, services) are established by separate regulations and Methodological guidelines for accounting.

PBU 10/99 1 without exaggeration can be called one of the most amazing and strange documents of the entire system of regulatory accounting. Accounting for the costs associated with the production and sale (sale) of products, and the formation of the cost of products (works, services) are one of the main areas of accounting in organizations of the sphere material production. This means that the need for detailed regulatory regulation of this branch of accounting is obvious. However, the way this is done by PBU 10/99 can only cause bewilderment.

Accounting for the expenses of an organization has very significant industry specifics that cannot be unified and taken into account in a single regulatory act adopted at the level of the Ministry of Finance of Russia. Therefore, in almost all sectors of the sphere of material production and trade, at one time, they developed and adopted regulations, regulating the features of the formation of cost (in trade - distribution costs).

It is no secret that almost all regulations and by-laws developed by the Ministry of Finance of Russia and sectoral ministries and departments are to some extent based on the requirements of the Basic Provisions for planning, accounting and calculating the cost of production for industrial enterprises 2 (hereinafter referred to as the Basic Provisions). Despite the fact that more than 37 years have passed since the adoption of this document, the legislative and regulatory framework governing the economy and accounting has changed, most of the recommendations contained in the Basic Provisions remain relevant.

Before proceeding to the commentary on the rules of PBU 10/99, let us clarify: of all countries using IFRS, only in domestic practice has a standard been adopted and is in force that regulates only the recognition of expenses. In the entire IAS system, there are only a few general content standards set at the level of the PKI (and not a separate standard, or at least separate standards in several standards) in relation to expenses.

Of course, it was assumed that when creating PBU 10/99, the developers would have to rely on domestic experience. In other words, use a presentation style that is understandable to an ordinary user without additional explanations and comments (in particular, the Basic Provisions).

It seemed that the absence of Western analogues would make the speech of the developers more coherent and meaningful. But it didn't come true. The developers pretended that they were translating from something and adapting something, which means that the text of the Regulation should be more similar to the texts of previously adopted PBUs (for example, PBU 9/99 3), and not to the text of a normal instruction for accountant. Moreover, due to the reasons described, the method that can be used in relation to other PBUs does not work either: translate it again into the original language, evaluate the authenticity of the translation, and then translate it again into Russian, but it is already understandable. Nothing to compare with...

The first significant norm (clause 2) can be confusing - the very definition of expenses: “The expenses of an organization are recognized as a decrease in economic benefits as a result of the disposal of assets (cash, other property) and (or) the occurrence of obligations, leading to a decrease in the capital of this organization, except for the reduction of contributions by decision of the participants (property owners)”.

First, in order to remember what an economic benefit is, one will need to refer to dictionaries or other translated sources. Secondly, if you read the definition literally, it turns out that expenses (as a decrease in benefits) must necessarily lead to a decrease in the capital of the organization. Here there is a strong feeling that the developers of PBU 10/99 did not see the balance sheet, and read the textbook on accounting theory only in an abbreviated and simplified version.

An accountant, even a beginner, understands that the very fact of making expenses almost never means a decrease in the organization's capital. Moreover, postings affecting the liability of the balance sheet are made out only upon the acquisition of inventories and other assets. But at this stage, the need to recognize expenses does not yet arise. Further, until the very moment of sale, the value of the assets simply moves along the lines of the asset balance (cash - stocks - cost - finished products- accounts receivable). But even after the need arises to reflect accounts receivable and revenue, there is no decrease in capital (or liabilities). Rather the opposite. Only in this case it is necessary to apply the norms of PBU 9/99.

The list of cases when the disposal of assets is not recognized as an expense is not obvious either. At first glance, it seems obvious that current expenses cannot include costs associated with the acquisition or creation of non-current assets. At the same time, PBU 6/01 4, for example, specifically stipulates that general business and other similar expenses are not included in the actual costs of acquiring, constructing or manufacturing fixed assets, except when they are directly related to the acquisition, construction or manufacturing of fixed assets . In other words, another PBU does not exclude the possibility that certain types of expenses may be related (even indirectly) to the acquisition of non-current assets, but are accounted for as current expenses. In addition, the developers for some reason overlooked that fixed assets during operation, they can also increase the initial cost (reconstruction, for example, or modernization). But what about these expenses? In the sense - the disposal of assets for payment?

Well, how can one not recall the previously used terminology “capital investments”! The cost price did not include expenses incurred as part of capital investments. The difference with the approach used in PBU 10/99 is that the division of costs into current and costs in the implementation capital investments assumes as a classifying feature the source of reimbursement of expenses. In other words, what is included in the estimates for capital construction or other budget documents, cannot be taken into account as part of current expenses or written off to the cost of products (works, services).

No less unfortunate is the indication that the disposal of assets under commission agreements, agency and other similar agreements in favor of the committent, principal, etc. is not recognized as expenses of the organization ... It is clear that the cost of goods transferred, for example, for commission cannot be taken into account included in current expenses. But the text of PBU 10/99 refers to the disposal of assets in favor of the committent ... If you recall the Russian language textbooks, then you can read this in the only way - the amount of remuneration cannot be attributed to current expenses, but nothing is said about the value of the transferred goods.

Nor can the principles of classifying (grouping) expenditures by type inspire optimism. Since the end of 2006, it has been recommended to allocate only two groups of expenses - expenses for ordinary activities and others (paragraph 4 of PBU 10/99). If we translate this into the language accounting entries and Chart of Accounts 5, it turns out that PBU 10/99 divides the expenses into those that must be taken into account in the debit of account 91 “Other income and expenses”, and into all the rest. The rest are understood as expenses recorded on accounts 20 “Main production”, 21 “Semi-finished products of own production”, 23 “Auxiliary production”, 25 “General production expenses”, 26 “General expenses”, 28 “Marriage in production”, 29 “ Service industries and farms” and 44 “Sales expenses”. This is not counting depreciation, the accounting of which is regulated by PBU 6/01 and PBU 5/01 6 (but even there it is not told which production cost accounts to write off depreciation for certain groups of property), as well as wages (accounting for which individual PBU does not regulated).

However, accountants (and employees of other management services of economic entities) rightly expected from the Ministry of Finance of Russia more attention to regulating the formation of the cost of products (works, services). Guided only by the norms of PBU 10/99, it is impossible not only to organize a full accounting of production costs, but also to at least approximately understand how the grouping of the Chart of Accounts should correlate with economic sense business transactions.

The nitpicking may seem unreasonable: they say, the position of the Ministry of Finance of Russia is evidence that organizations are now granted broad rights in terms of accounting methodology in relation to industry specifics and features of conducting entrepreneurial activity in specific conditions. This is true, but the direction of accounting in our country still remains tax. And the tax base for all taxes is calculated on the basis of accounting data (this is not the author's fantasy, but Article 54 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation). This means that the incorrect classification of expenses - for example, into direct and indirect, into expenses related to production and sale, and non-sales - with almost one hundred percent probability will create problems with tax authorities(in the first case - for income tax, in the second - for VAT). Moreover, we can talk about the fact that the wrong classification may seem to an ordinary tax inspector. In this case, it will be impossible for the taxpayer to prove his position: there is no relevant regulatory act on accounting, and the presumption of good faith of the taxpayer is a concept that is increasingly relegated to the realm of fantasy or utopian dreams.

In other words, when developing PBU 10/99, the Ministry of Finance of Russia could (or should) have formulated clearer criteria for classifying, grouping and detailing expenses. Perhaps there were even appropriate intentions. After all, it is no coincidence that the 30th account numbers were reserved in the Chart of Accounts, and a promising phrase was included in the Instructions for the use of the Chart of Accounts: “... the composition and methodology for using accounts 20-39 with this accounting option is established by the organization based on the characteristics of the activity, structure, organization of management on based on the relevant recommendations of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation”. Well, where are these recommendations? They are not here.

To remedy the situation, organizations get out as best they can, and "bright minds" from the scientific community and just methodologists develop principles for organizing management accounting. There are developments - both general and sectoral. Yes, here's the problem: regulatory framework do not fit under them. There is no such base. And that means that any work in this direction, in essence, remains an internal corporate initiative, the results of which cannot be used to substantiate one's position either in disputes with tax authorities or in polemics with law enforcement agencies.

In fairness, it should be noted that paragraph 8 of PBU 10/99 contains an indication of a general nature - in terms of the obligation to ensure the grouping of expenses by elements. But, firstly, the number of elements established for accounting purposes, for some reason, does not correspond to the elements defined by Chapter 25 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation (i.e., when using accounting data to calculate the tax base, regrouping is required). Secondly, cost elements are not cost items, and grouping by elements for financial and economic analysis gives little. But the developers of PBU 10/99 stubbornly keep silent about the fact that there may also be a grouping according to calculation items.

PBU 10/99 also has two references to the cost - in paragraphs 9 and 10. The wording of the norm in paragraph 9 seems so trivial that it does not deserve citation. Paragraph 10 contains a reference to “separate regulations and methodological guidelines for accounting”, which should establish the rules for calculating the cost of products (works, services). Next year it will be 10 years since the approval of PBU 10/99, and the Ministry of Finance of Russia has not adopted a single "guideline" yet. There have been attempts to regulate cost accounting at the level of sectoral ministries (in particular, in transport). But these attempts can hardly be called completely successful. Somehow it turned out that such developments were based not on the norms of the documents of the accounting regulatory system, but on the provisions of Chapter 25 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.

It is also appropriate to note here that in none of the documents of the system of regulatory accounting regulation you can find instructions on accounting for those expenses that are not expenses “for the purposes of PBU 10/99”. In particular, those that are reimbursed by net profit: either on the account 84 " Undestributed profits(uncovered loss)”, or on account 99 “Profit and Loss”. Or, maybe, for each such case, you need to open an account 29?

General rules the acceptance of expenses for accounting is established by the norms of individual paragraphs of Sections II and III PBU 10/99. Of all these norms, the provision that commercial and administrative expenses can be recognized in the cost of sold products, goods, works, services in full in the reporting year of their recognition as expenses for ordinary activities is of some significant importance (clause 10 PBU 10 /99). As already noted, PBU 10/99 does not say what should be understood as management and commercial expenses, and the Instructions for using the Chart of Accounts contain only general recommendations on this occasion.

Most of the norms of these sections are similar to the programmer's answer to the question - absolutely correct and absolutely useless. For example: “Expenses for ordinary activities are accepted for accounting in an amount calculated in monetary terms, equal to the amount of payment in cash and in other form or the amount of accounts payable” (clause 6 PBU 10/99). And in what other amount can they be accepted? An accountant cannot reflect in the accounting registers what is not in the primary documents (this directly follows from the Accounting Law 7), and they may contain either payment or debt for this payment. If it later turns out that they paid the wrong or the wrong amount, new primary documents arise, in which there can only be similar indicators.

The depth of thought and wisdom of the ages emanates from such a revelation: “The amount of payment and (or) accounts payable is determined based on the price and conditions established by the contract between the organization and the supplier (contractor) or other counterparty. If the price is not provided for in the contract and cannot be set on the basis of the terms of the contract, then to determine the amount of payment or accounts payable, the price at which, in comparable circumstances, the organization usually determines expenses is accepted ... ”If you read it carefully, it seems like he entered Through the Looking Glass.

Firstly, the amount of payment for accounting purposes is still determined according to the data primary documents. By and large, an accountant should not care about what is written in contracts - this is the field of activity of lawyers, economists and management. And from the quoted norm it follows that the accountant, before reflecting certain expenses in the accounting, must in each case raise the contracts and check with them.

Secondly, if the price in the contract is not set and cannot be set from its terms, then why is such a contract needed? And then, I wonder how the developers imagine the adjustment of these primary documents based on "comparable circumstances"?

In general, the phrase is beautiful, similar to the translation, but nothing more. Try to put it into practice, and the scope of knowledge may change (by place of work and by qualification).

Other provisions of Sections II and III are of approximately the same nature - either obvious, or by reference, or borrowed from other regulations (in particular, Regulations on Accounting and Accounting in the Russian Federation 8).

The norms of paragraph 16, which establish the conditions for the recognition of expenses in accounting, are not a revelation either. To some extent, they repeat the conditions for accepting income amounts for accounting (PBU 9/99) and can make you think only because they are set out in the usual PBU language. If we combine all three conditions in one, then it can be said more simply: expenses are accepted for accounting on the basis of properly executed primary documents (in which both the amount and a link to the contract must be indicated, and a note on the disposal of assets - the transfer of funds or the issuance of material production stocks).

Some confusion, however, can be caused by such a passage: “... if at least one of the named conditions is not fulfilled in relation to any expenses incurred by the organization, then accounts receivable are recognized in the accounting records of the organization.” Well, if the amount of the expense cannot be determined, in what amount should the accounts receivable be reflected? Or if the expense is made, but there is no contract, then what grounds can there be for reflecting costs in accounting?

The norms of paragraph 18 of PBU 10/99 are very verbose and pretentious. In fact, we are talking about the fact that the organization has the right to use one of the chosen methods for recognizing expenses - the accrual or cash method. The question arises: why in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation the same thing could be formulated clearly, but not in PBU 10/99?

In conclusion, we can draw bleak conclusions:

  • from the text of PBU 10/99 it is impossible to obtain an exhaustive answer to the question of what “organization costs” are;
  • it is also impossible to organize accounting for the cost of products (works, services) both by cost elements and by calculation items;
  • regulations (guidelines etc.), which were supposed to be developed in the development of PBU 10/99, never saw the light of day.

Under these conditions, accounting practitioners can only rely on their own strength, and even on popular articles and brochures, the recommendations in which remain recommendations.
