MODULE 1

THE BALANCE SHEET

 
In order to achieve a standardized system, the accounting process follows accounting principles and rules. Regardless of the type of business or the amount of money involved, common procedures for handling and presenting financial information are used. Incoming money (revenues) and outgoing money (expenditures) are carefully monitored, and transactions are summarized in financial statements, which reflect the major financial activities of an organization. Two common financial statements are the balance sheet and the income statement. The balance sheet shows the financial position of a company at one point in time, while the income statement shows the financial performance of a company over a period of time. Financial statements allow interested parties to compare one organization to another and/or to compare accounting periods within one organization. For example, an investor may compare the most recent income statements of two corporations in order to find out which one would be a better investment.
Specifically, the balance sheet shows the interested parties information about the company's assets and liabilities. The assets deal with anything of value that a business owns which can be given a monetary value. There are two types of assets: current assets, like cast accounts receivable, inventories; and fixed assets including property, building, and equipment. The liabilities are debts owed or an obligation incurred by an organization, e.g., accounts payable, bonds, long-term notes. They are usually separated into current and long-term categories for purposes of the accounting function. Beside, the assets and liabilities, the balance sheet shows also the equities-the company's profits that are given to the stockholders.
Through effective application of commonly accepted accounting systems, private, public, and governmental accountants provide accurate and timely financial information that is necessary for organizational decision-making.
