Financial Statements
The accounting process consists of two major functions: recording data from
transactions and preparing financial statements. The two most important financial
statements are: 1) the income statement (profit and loss statement); 2) the balance
sheet.
Income statement reports revenue and expenses for a specific period of time,
showing the results of operations during that period. The basic formula is revenue
minus expenses equals gross profit.
The balance sheet reports the financial position of a firm on a specific date. It is
composed of assets, liabilities and owner’s equity. The words balance sheet mean
that the report shows a balance, an equality between two figures: assets and
liabilities plus owner’s equity. Thus, the fundamental accounting equation used to
prepare the balance sheet is: assets = liabilities + owner’s equity. Most businesses
prepare a balance sheet at the end of each mouth or quarter.
The difference between the balance sheet and the income statement can be
summarized this way: the balance sheet is a “snapshot” of where a company is at
one moment in time. It tells what the company owns and owes on a certain day. The
income statement is a motion picture. It summarizes all the resources that come into
the firm and left the firm and the resulting net income.
A financial statement is merely the summary of all transactions that have occurred
over a particular period of time. Financial statements tell the health of a firm. That
is why they are of great interest to stockholders, bank, investors and government.
