“The 3 major financial statements are the Income St
atement, Balance Sheet and Cash
Flow Statement.
The Income Statement gives the company’s revenue an
d expenses, and goes down to
Net Income, the final line on the statement.
The Balance Sheet shows the company’s Assets – its
resources – such as Cash, Inventory
and PP&E, as well as its Liabilities – such as Debt
and Accounts Payable – and
Shareholders’ Equity. Assets must equal Liabilitie
s plus Shareholders’ Equity.
The Cash Flow Statement begins with Net Income, adju
sts for non-cash expenses and
working capital changes, and then lists cash flow f
rom investing and financing activities;
at the end, you see the company’s net change in cash
