The four financial statements:
1. Income Statement (provides a financial summary of the firms operating
results during a specified period)
2. Balance Sheet
3. Statement of Retained Earnings
4. Statement of Cash Flows (discussed in chapter 2)

*EBIT= Earnings before interest and tax (Operating profits)
*Accounts payable= the payment of money to a supplier
Notes payable= a promise to pay someone money (a loan)

Income statement:
+Sales
-COGS
-Operating expenses
-TAX
= Net profit after tax

*Sole proprietor of a business’ salaries= withdrawals (does NOT count as a salary
expense)

*Financial performance is relative; The assets employed to generate these sales and
profits need to be taken into account for a comprehensive explanation of financial
performance!

Balance sheet:
+Total current assets (Cash, accounts receivable, inventories, land, machinery etc)
-Liabilities (current: notes payable, accruals etc; long term debt)
= Stockholder’s equity

EQUITY= COMMON STOCK + RETAINED EARNINGS
Current assets = can be converted in cash a relatively short amount of time (1
business cycle = 1 year) marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventories

Statement of retained earnings (links income statement to the balance sheet)

, Week 2 (Chapter 3: Ratio Analysis)

Ratio analysis= methods of calculating and interpreting financial ratios to analyse
and monitor a firm’s performance

Assets = Liabilities + Equity (Must balance out on the balance sheet)

Liquidity = the ability to pay debts when they are due (the most liquid form of
assets is cash)

Ratio comparisons:
1. Cross sectional= comparison between different firms at the same point in
time
2. Time series= evaluates performance (of a single firm) over time

paying shareholders)


Week 3 (Chapter 4: Long- and Short-Term Financial Planning)

The Statement of Cash Flows= explains the net change in cash during a period
(inflows and outflows of cash)

The change in cash can be found on the balance sheet: the difference from PP

Three parts of SOCF:

depreciation adjustments, and changes in current assets and liabilities)

2. Cash Flows from Investing Activities (=acquisition and sale of long term
assets: fixed assets, property, plant, equipment etc;
it does NOT deal with investments from stockholders (that is included in cash flow

debts): new stock issued, paying dividends
