Preparation Of Financial Statements
Aperçu
All year the books have been recording, checking and adjusting. Now comes the moment everything was for: turning a page of balances into two statements that answer the only two questions anybody outside the business really asks. Did it make money this year, and what is it standing on? An income statement answers the first, and a statement of financial position answers the second.
The model is the same whoever owns the business, but the finishing changes. A sole trader keeps every penny of the profit, so her statements are the simplest. Partners have to divide the profit according to their agreement. A limited company is owned by shareholders and pays them dividends. A manufacturer has to work out what its own goods cost to make before it can say what they cost to sell. A club is not trying to make a profit at all. And a trader who never kept a ledger can still be told what she earned. This lesson prepares all six.
