BALANCE SHEET
Company's name
End period
Definition
The balance sheet presents a company's financial position at the end of a
specified date.
Some describe the balance sheet as a "snapshot" of the company's financial
position at a point (a moment or an instant) in time. For example, the amounts
reported on a balance sheet dated December 31, 2012 reflect that instant when all
the transactions through December 31 have been recorded. It summarizes the
company's assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity at a specific point in time.
These three balance sheet segments give investors an idea as to what the
company owns and owes, as well as the amount invested by the shareholders.
The balance sheet must follow the formula:
Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity
Assets are things that the company owns. They are the resources of the company
that have been acquired through transactions, and have future economic value that
can be measured and expressed in terms of monetary value. Assets also include
costs paid in advance that have not yet expired, such as prepaid advertising,
prepaid insurance, prepaid legal fees, and prepaid rent.

Liabilities are obligations of the company. They are amounts owed to creditors for
a past transaction and they usually have the word "payable" in their account title.
Along with owner's equity, liabilities can be thought of as a source of the company's
assets. They can also be thought of as a claim against a company's assets.
Equity is the amount of the funds contributed by the owners (the stockholders) plus
the retained earnings (or losses). Also referred to as "shareholders' equity", along
with liabilities, it can be thought of as a source of the company's assets.
How to use this tool
