Glossary
Fixed assets / non-current assets = These types of assets can be used more than once.
Current assets = These types of assets can only be used once, for example you can only spend € 1 one time.
Equity = The amount of money that the owners have invested in the company
Non-current liabilities = Long term financial obligations of the company to others.
Current liabilities = Short term obligations, where short in essence means shorter than one year.
Equilibrium = A key characteristic of the balance sheet is that the debit side is always equal to the credit
side. In other words, the company has as many assets as it has sources of financing.
Revenue = monetary value of goods and services sold
Expensses = monetary value of production means used
Receipts = all the money that flows into the firm over a certain period
Payment = all the money that flows out of the firm over a certain period (a cash transaction, only drain on
your resources)
Investment = asset that is acquired with the goal of generating income, it holds value
Operating activities = cash flow that are directly related to earning income
Investment activites = include cash flows related to the acquisition or sale of the company’s productive
assets
Finacing activities = cash flows that are directly related to the financing of the enterprise itself
Notes
Cost always influences equity
Equity is not cash. It represents the investment the owner have made in the business.
When making profit equity increases
When paying for an expenses cash decreases
Equity can increase for 2 reasons:
o Direct investment by the owner
o Reinvesting / keeping profit in the business
Equity can decrease for 2 reasons:
o Direct withdrawal by the owner
o Negative profit (loss)
Depreciation expense is never a payment
