Financial Statements
The Balance Sheet
• The balance sheet is a summary of a firm’s assets,
liabilities, and owner’s equity accounts at a particular time.
This financial statement must demonstrate that the
accounting equation is in balance.
• On the balance sheet, assets are categorized as current,
fixed, or intangible. Similarly, the firm’s liabilities are
divided into two groups: current and long-term liabilities.
• For a sole proprietorship or partnership, the owner’s equity
is shown as the difference between assets and liabilities; it
is reported by the owner’s name in the last section of the
balance sheet. For a corporation, the value of common
stock, preferred stock, and retained earnings is reported in
the stockholder’s equity section.

The Income Statement
•
•

•
An income statement is a summary of a firm’s revenues and
expenses during a specified accounting period. Income
statement consists of four sections:
Revenues includes gross income from the sales of products or
services. The gross amount is reduced by sales returns, sales
allowances and sales discounts.
Cost of goods sold are the cost of the goods a firm has sold
during an accounting period.
A firm’s operating expenses are those costs that do not result
directly from the purchase or manufacture of the products it
sells.
Net income is the profit earned (or the loss suffered) by a firm
during an accounting period, after all expenses have been
deducted from revenues.

Depreciation
Depreciation is the process of apportioning the cost of a fixed
asset over the period during which it will be used. The portion
being used up is reported as depreciation expense on the
income statement. In effect, depreciation is the transfer of a
portion of an asset’s cost from the balance sheet to the income
statement during each year of the asset’s life.
To compute depreciation expense, accountants consider three
major factors:
• Cost of an asset: the amount that a company paid to purchase
the asset.
• Estimated salvage value: the amount of money the company
expects to recover on the date a plant asset is sold, or traded in.
• Estimated useful life of the asset: the time the company owing
the asset intends to use it.
Depreciation

asset that has been consumed or expired, and has

• recover: get back/ ανακτώ, ξανακερδίζω
• salvage value: the estimated value of an asset at the
end of its useful life/υπολλειματική αξία
The Statement of Cash Flows
The statement of cash flows illustrates the effect on cash of the operating,
investing, and financing activities of a company for an accounting period.
The Cash Flow Statement
The statement classifies cash receipts and disbursements as
operating, investing, and financing.
•
Operating activities include the cash flows of transactions
that determine net income, e.g. cash received from sales of
goods and services, or payments to acquire inventory.
•
Investing activities include transactions involving the
acquisition of non-current assets, e.g. sale or purchase of
property or securities.
•
Financing activities include cash inflows and outflows of
transactions involving creditors and owners, e.g. cash received
from issuing stocks and bonds, or payments of dividends.
