FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Murphy C. (2022) defines Financial statements as written records that convey the
business activities and the financial performance of a company.
Financial statements are often audited by government agencies, accountants, firms,
etc. to ensure accuracy and for tax, financing, or investing purposes.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. INCOME STATEMENT
primarily focuses on a company’s revenues and expenses during a particular period. Once
expenses are subtracted from revenues, the statement produces a company's profit figure called
NET INCOME.
Formula:
Example 01:
You are an Accountant of ABC Company. On the given documents and receipts, the Sales of
Supplies was amounted to 900,000. Meanwhile, the Expenses are as follows:
ABC COMPANY
Income Statement
For the year ended, December 31 2022
Revenues:
Sales P 900,000.00
Expenses:
2. BALANCE SHEET
The balance sheet displays the company’s total assets and how the assets are financed, either
through either debt or equity.
The balance sheet is based on the fundamental equation: Assets = Liabilities + Equity.
Example 02:
The XYZ Company’s Total Liabilities amounted to 500,000.00 and the Total Equity
amounted to 1,000,000.00. How much was the Total Assets?
Keep in mind that the Formula for the Balance sheet is:
The total Liabilities and Owners Equity is equal to 1500,000.00. Since the Assets is equal to the
total to the liabilities and owner’s equity, then the Assets is 1,500,000.00
Example 03:
Keep in mind that the Formula for the Balance sheet is:
The Total of Liabilities and Equity must be equal to the Total Assets. To get the missing liability,
Subtract the Owner’s Equity to the Assets.
Example 04
SYCHROUNOUS Company has a total Assets of 1,000,000.00. The owners equity has a
total of 200,000.00. How much was the total Liabilities?
Keep in mind that the Formula for the Balance sheet is:
The Total of Liabilities and Equity must be equal to the Total Assets. To get the missing Equity,
Subtract the Liabilities to the Assets.
The cash flow statement (CFS), is a financial statement that summarizes the movement of cash
and cash equivalents (CCE) that come in and go out of a company.
For example, cash generated from the sale of goods (revenue) and cash paid for merchandise
(expense) are operating activities because revenues and expenses are included in net income.
For example, cash generated from the sale of land and cash paid for an investment in another
company are included in this category. (Note that interest received from loans is included in operating
activities.)
FINANCING ACTIVITIES include cash activities related to noncurrent liabilities and owners’
equity. Noncurrent liabilities and owners’ equity items include (1) the principal amount of long-term debt,
(2) stock sales and repurchases, and (3) dividend payments.
The main focus of the Statement of Cash Flows is the MOVEMENT of Cash and the NET
INCREASE/DECREASE of Cash. To get the net increase or decrease in cash, just total the Cash flow
from the 3 Activities.
Statement of Changes in Equity is the reconciliation between the opening balance and closing balance
of shareholder’s equity. It is a financial statement which summarises the transactions related to the
shareholder’s equity over an accounting period.
