    How to do a balance sheet: a balance sheet is a financial document that shows the assets, liabilities, and owners' equity of a company at a given point in time. It's different from the income statement in that it is a snapshot on any given day, whereas the income statement spans a time period. Most companies prepare their balance sheets quarterly and yearly.
    How To Do A Balance Sheet
    To put together a balance sheet, you'll obviously need all of the financial data from your different trial balances. In reality, the information for a balance sheet starts with the individual transactions, but the purpose of this article is just to show you how to organize a balance sheet.
    First of all, there are two sides to the balance sheet: the right and left side. On the left side, you'll have your assets. On the right side, you'll have two sections: liabilities and owners' equity. The left and right side will always be equal, and the main balance sheet equation is:
    Assets = Liabilities + Owners' Equity
    This makes sense because the Assets are on the left side, and it will always equal what is on the right side, which is the Liabilities and Owners' Equity accounts added together.

    why can't teachers just explain like this guy does

    Honestly despite sounding tired and monotone, he is straight to the point and that’s what matters. Some enthusiastic teachers loose track sometimes.
    Better to have a really quiet hair stylist that cuts your hair right than a cheerful one who probablly shaved your sides to the skin because he was busy entertaining you. Then again there are those that can do both but hey he’s a good teacher overall.

    For anyone thinking that this balance sheet is different it’s because it is there’s two different balance sheets. One balance sheet is an annual or yearly balance sheet and the other is a classified balance sheet which is for a specific amount of time. Annual balance sheets are a little simpler in my opinion.

    Are only current assets listed in order of liquidity? It seems that land is almost always listed before buildings or equipment on the balance sheet. I would think it would be listed as equipment, building, then land if listed by liquidity.
    Can you clarify for me?

    does it matter if I put "accounts receivable" before "cash" or is there and actual order I must follow?

    • @semihbariskarakus
      @semihbariskarakus 10 років тому +3

      Yes, there is one logic in both sides of balance sheet. Asset side is based on liquidy-in other worlds, putting items in order is according to their ability to be turned into cash. Cash in hand is most liquid item, that is why, assets starts with it then other items comes based on being liquid logic. In liability said is also same logic, it starts with short term debt and ends with capital(equity), based on ability to finance your assets in which volume. You cannot easily finance your asset with your capital but you can with your short term dept, then long term and in the end with your equity :)
