FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Learning Objectives
A balance sheet presents assets, liabilities and owner's equity at a specific date. A balance
sheet is also called Statement of Financial Position. This statement is a listing of the firm’s
assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity at a specific point in time. Total Assets must equal the
addition of Liabilities and Owner’s Equity.
An income statement presents revenues and expenses and resulting net income or loss for a
period of time. An income statement is also called Statement of Operations, Earnings
Statement, or Profit and Loss Statement (P/L). This is a summary of a business’s revenue and
expenses for a specific period of time. It only shows differences revenue and expenses for a
period of time like one monthly, quartly and yearly). Net Income is realized when revenue
exceeds expenses and net loss is realized when expenses exceed revenue.
A cash flow statement summarizes information about cash outflows (payments) and inflows
(receipts). This statement may also include certain information not related to actual cash
flows.
All financial statements consist of different elements. There are ten elements: assets,
liabilities, equity, revenue (increase equity), expenses (decrease equity, distributions
(dividends which deacrease equity), retained earnings (revenue less expenses = net income or
loss) (which most of the items will be explained in this or further chapters).
Assets
Assets are economic resources that are owned by the business to accomplish its main goal,
i.e., increase owners' wealth and are expected to provide positive future cash flows. Assets are
items with money value that are owned by a business. Some examples are: cash, accounts
receivable (selling goods or services on credit), notes receivable, inventories and
tools&equipment ( for usage of office, store, delivery, etc.), and supplies (for usage of office,
store, delivery, etc.)
Assets are economic recourses of a business used
To be formally recognized as an asset, the following two conditions must be met:
potential economic benefit must be assignable to a particular entity, and
event giving rise to the assignment must have already occurred.
For example, if a company has purchased a piece of equipment and uses it in generating
revenues, it is considered as an asset. However, if the company just considers buying new
equipment, it can't be recorded or shown as an asset.

Liabilities:
Liabilities are debts that represent negative future cash flows for the business enterprise.
Liabilities are debts owed by the business. Paying cash is often not possible or convenient, so
businesses purchase goods and services on credit. The name of the account used is Accounts
Payable in general. Another type of liability is Notes Payable. This is a formal written
promise to pay a specific amount of money at a definite future date.
Current Liablities:
Accounts Payable
Notes Payable
Salaries payable
Tax payable
LongTerm Liabilities:
Notes payable
Bonds payable
Loan payable
Owners' Equity:
Owners’ equity represents the owners’ claims to the assets of the business. The difference
between Assets and Liabilities is Owner’s Equity. The can also be called capital,
proprietorship, or net worth.
Income Statement

An income statement presents revenues and expenses and resulting net income or loss for a
period of time. An income statement is also called Statement of Operations, Earnings
Statement, or Profit and Loss Statement (P/L).
A cash flow statement summarizes information about cash outflows (payments) and inflows

The fundamental equation in accounting (called the balance sheet equation) is:
ASSETS = LIABILITIES + OWNER’S EQUITY.. (or, as we will frequently refer to it: A=L+OE).
Definitions:
ASSET: An asset is an economic resource owned by a business that is used to earn
revenue. Assets are what a company owns, such as equipment, buildings and
inventory.
LIABILITIES + OWNER’S EQUITY :Claims on assets include liabilities and owners'
equity. Liabilities are what a company owes, such as notes payable, trade
accounts payable and bonds. LIABILITY is a debt or obligation that you owe to someone
else. Owners' equity represent the claims of owners against the business assets.
Accounting equation
Accounting equation means the assets that company owns equals the claims or
sourses ( liabilitiy and owner’s equity) of the business. Asset has it own source.
Means we can create asset with claims. All economic transactions in business create
an accounting equation. The assets are created In the busines t has it own source. It
means assets ares created asset with claims. How can a company has an asset, if
owners invest cash and related thigs, after investment entity has cash but there is
also claim of this cash called capital. Claim of cash is capital. We need to provide a
definition of claims before we proceed with the basic accounting equation.
A company's assets belong to the resource providers who are said to have claims on
the assets.In other words, each asset has its own source provided by an owner or
creditor. So, there can't be any claim without an appropriate asset and vice versa.
Based on the previous statement, we can define the basic accounting equation:
The value of the property the company owns equals the funding sources the
company used to acquire the property.
The value of the property the company owns equals the claims of creditors to
the property plus the claims of the company’s owners to the property
(remember that the claims of the creditors are satisfied first, so the owners are
entitled to claim only the remaining property.)
Stockholder’s Equity is also called Net Worth because it represents what the
company is worth to its owners after all liabilities have been paid.
Revenue (or sales or fees earned) increases Owners’ Equity because the
company receives assets for providing its goods or services, increasing what
the company is worth to the owners.
Net Income is Revenue minus Expenses, also known as profit. Net Income
may be negative if Expenses exceed Revenues, when it is known as Net Loss.
Net Income increases Owners’ Equity whereas Net Loss reduces Owners’
Equity.
Retained earnings, in the simplest terms, is the accumulation of all Net Income
and Net Losses less all the dividends paid to the owners since the company’s
formation.
Based on the previous statement, we can define the basic accounting equation:
Accounting Equation
Assets = Liabilities + Owners’ Equity (or, as we will frequently refer to it: A=L+OE)
Assets = Claims
A transaction is any activity that changes the value of a firm’s assets, liabilities, or
owner’s equity. Each transaction has a dual effect on the accounting elements. A
transaction may affect more than two accounts in a transaction. Each transaction
increases or decreases (or both) the basic elements in the accounting equation. The
effect of recording a business transaction must always leave the two sides of the
accounting equation in balance.
Claims
Assets =
Liabilities + Equity

Example
I have placed the accounts across the top in this transaction table, with Assets on the left
(Cash, Accounts Receivable, and Equipment). There's one liability account (Accounts
Payable), and one Owner's Equity account, Jeam Turk, Contributed Capital.
In the diagram above, you'll note that I've shown the totals for the accounts. After this one
transaction, you can prove to yourself that Assets (Cash of 20,000TL) are equal to Liabilities
(0TL) + Owner's Equity (Capital of 20,000TL).
Transaction 2: Jeam Turk purchases some equipment for office of 4,000TL cash.
Transaction 4: The business paid 200TL to supplier of supplies for (payment of cash on
account)
Notice that Withdraws or dividends deacrease owners’ equity, when the owner withdraws
cash from the business, this represents a decrease in owner's equity-but keep in mind that
Drawings are not considered an expense. The reason for this is that expenses are incurred for
the purpose of generating revenue. A drawing, on the other hand, is simply a disinvestment
by the owner, and will likely not increase revenue in the future.
Net Income = Revenues (increase Owner's Equity) – Expenses(decrease Owner's Equity) and,
net income of business appears as Retained Earnings.
A Revenue is an increase in Owner's Equity brought about by operating the business. An auto
mechanic operates by fixing cars; a lawyer earns revenue by consulting the clients.
An Expense is a usage of asests and It is used up to generate of revenue. A company might
hires employees which resulting in Salaries Expense, in order to accomplish the company's
goals.
We have processed seven transactions, and look how much work it required! Our task now is
to prepare three financial statements: an Income Statement, and a Balance Sheet. Normally,
these financial statements are prepared at the end of the accounting period. In this example,
we will consider the accounting period to be one month, so the financial statements would be
prepared on January 31,2017.
Revenues:
Consulting Revenue 2,000TL
Operating Expenses(-) (750TL)
Net Income 1,250TL
The Balance Sheet shows the total Assets, Liabilities, and the Owner's Capital. You
can look across the bottom line of the transaction table to find the accounts used for
the Balance Sheet.

borrowing cash from a bank. This is also an asset source transaction. In the table below the
beginning balances are derived from the ending balances of the previous transaction:
