4. Basic Financial Statements
The balance sheet, which summarizes what a
firm owns and owes at a point in time.
The income statement, which reports on how
much a firm earned in the period of analysis
The statement of cash flows, which reports on
cash inflows and outflows to the firm during the
period of analysis
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
5. Financial analysis involves the use of various financial
statements. These statements do several things.
First, the balance sheet summarizes the assets,
liabilities, and owners’ equity of a business at a moment
in time, usually the end of a year or a quarter.
Second, the income statement summarizes the revenues
and expenses of the firm over a particular period of
time, again usually a year or a quarter.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
6. Balance sheet is a summary of a firm’s
financial position on a given date that shows
total assets = total liabilities + owners’ equity.
The balance sheet represents a snapshot of the
firm’s financial position at a moment in time,

Aldine Manufacturing Company Balance Sheets (in thousands)
13. Balance Sheet Limitations:
Assets recorded at historical value
Only recognizes assets that can be expressed
in monetary terms
Owners’ equity is usually less than the
company’s market value
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
14. Table shows the balance sheets of Aldine
Manufacturing Company for the fiscal years
ending March 31, 20X2, and March 31, 20X1.
The assets are listed in the upper panel according
to their relative degree of liquidity (i.e., their
closeness to cash).
Cash is the ultimate in liquidity, and appears first.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
15. The further an asset is removed from cash, the
less liquid it is. Accounts receivable are one
step from cash, and inventories are two steps.
Because fixed assets, long-term investment,
and other long-term assets are the least liquid,
they appear last.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
16. The bottom panel of the table shows the liabilities
and shareholders’ equity of the company.
These items are ordered according to the nearness
with which they are likely to be paid.
All current liabilities are payable within one year,
whereas the long-term debt is payable
beyond one year.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
17. Shareholders’ equity will be “paid” only through regular
cash dividends, common stock repurchases, and,
perhaps, a final liquidation dividend.
Shareholders’ equity, or net worth as it is sometimes
called, consists of several subcategories. Common stock
(at par) and additional paid-in capital together represent
the total amount of money paid into the company in
exchange for shares of common stock.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
18. Retained earnings represent a company’s
cumulative profits after dividends since the
firm’s inception: thus these are earnings that
have been retained (or reinvested) in the firm.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
19. We see in the table that total assets equal – or
balance – total liabilities plus
shareholders’equity.
Indeed, that is an accounting identity. Also, it
follows that assets minus liabilities equal
shareholders’ equity.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
21. Income statement is a summary of a firm’s
revenues and expenses over a specified period,
ending with net income or loss for the period.
The income statement depicts a summary of the
firm’s profitability over time.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
22. Income statements Shows the results of a
company’s operations over a period of time.
What goods were sold or services performed
that provided revenue for the company?
What costs were incurred in normal
operations to generate these revenues?
What are the earnings or company profit?
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
23. The Example Company
Income Statement
For the Years Ended December 31, 2010 and 2011
2011 2010
Revenues:

Other revenue 30 15
Total revenues $130 $100
Expenses:
Cost of goods sold $ 62 $ 58
Operating & admin. 16 12
Income tax 20 18
Total expenses $ 98 $ 88
Net Income $ 32 $ 12
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya

Aldine Manufacturing Company Income Statement (in thousands)
25. The income (earnings, or profit and loss) statement in
Table shows Aldine’s revenues, expenses, and net
profits for the two fiscal years under discussion.
The cost of goods sold represents the cost of actually
producing the products that were sold during the period.
Included here are the cost of raw materials, labor costs
associated with production, and manufacturing overhead
related to products sold.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
26. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as
well as interest expense are shown separately
from the cost of goods sold because they are
viewed as period expenses rather than product
costs.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
27. For a manufacturing company, as in this case,
depreciation expense is generally considered one
component of the cost of goods manufactured and
thus becomes part of the cost of goods sold.
For a merchandising firm (wholesaler or retailer),
depreciation is generally listed separately as
another period expense (like interest expense)
below the gross profit figure.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
28. The last three rows of the income statement
shown in Table represent a simplified statement
of retained earnings. Dividends are deducted
from earnings after taxes to give the increase in
retained earnings.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
29. An additional financial
statement that identifies
changes in retained
earnings from one
accounting period to the
next.
Beginning retained earnings
+ Net income
– Dividends paid
= Ending retained earnings
Net income results in:
Increase in net assets
Increase in retained earnings
Increase in owners’ equity
Dividends result in:
Decrease in net assets
Decrease in retained
earnings
Decrease in owners’ equity
31. Cash is the most liquid of assets. Cash offers both
liquidity and flexibility.
Cash includes cash and cash equivalents. Cash
equivalents:
treasury bills maturing in 90 days or less;
investment funds;
foreign currency on hand;
checking account and free savings account
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
32. A cash flow statement presents information
about the cash flows associated with the
company’s main operations and those associated
with its investing and financing activities of the
period.
A cash flow statement functions in conjunction
with both the income statement (performance
dimension) and the balance sheet (financial
position).
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
33. Provides information regarding the liquidity of a
firm
explains the reasons for increase or decrease in cash
balance from one balance sheet date to the next
classifies the reasons for the change as an operating,
investing or financing activity.
amount of net income in a period is usually different
than the amount of increase in cash in the same
period
reconciles net income with cash flow from
operations.
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
34. • The SCF reports cash receipts and cash payments by
operating, financing, and investing activities:
• Operating activities are the earning-related activities of a
company.
Beyond revenue and expense activities represented in
an income statement, they include the net inflows and
outflows of cash resulting from related operating
activities like extending credit to customers, investing
in inventories, and obtaining credit from suppliers.
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
36. Investing activities are means of acquiring and
disposing of noncash assets. They involve assets
expected to generate income; lending funds and
collecting the principal on these loans.
Financing activities are means of contributing,
withdrawing, and servicing funds to support
business activities. They include borrowing and
repaying funds with bonds and other loans;
contributions and withdrawals by owners and their
return on investment.
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
39. Statement of cash flows (SCF) helps address questions such as:
How much cash is generated from or used in operations?
What expenditures are made with cash from operations?
How are dividends paid when confronting an operating
loss?
What is the source of cash for debt payments?
How is the increase in investments financed?
What is the source of cash for new plant assets?
Why is cash lower when income increased?
What is the use of cash received from new financing?
Asst. Prof. Murat Akkaya
40. External Uses of CFS

47. Notes to the Financial Statements
Notes are used to convey information required
by GAAP or to provide further explanation.
Assoc. Prof. Murat Akkaya
48. Four general types of notes:
Summary of significant accounting policies:
assumptions and estimates.
Additional information about the summary
totals.
Disclosure of important information that is not
recognized in the financial statements.
Supplementary information required by the KAP
or the SPK.
