Financial Statement

TermDefinition
Four basic statements contained in the annual report It's the balance sheet, the income statement of retained earnings, and the statement of cash flows. Investors use the info provided in these statements to form expectations about the future levels of earnings and dividends, and about the firm's riskiness
Balance sheet It shows assets on the left-side and liabilities and equity, or claims against assets, on the right-side. The balance sheet may be thought of as a snapshot of the firm's financial position at a particular point in time.
income statement It reports the results of operations over a period of time, and it shows earnings per share as its "bottom line".
Statement of retained earnings It shows the change in retained earnings between the balance sheet dates. Retained earnings represent a claim against assets.
Operating cash It flows differ from reported accounting profits. Investors should be more interested in a firm's projected cash flows than in reported earnings, that is paid out as dividends and plowed back into the business to produce growth.
Cash flow cycle It is the way in which actual net cash, as opposed to accounting net income, flows into or out of a firm during some specified period.
Statement of cash flows It reports the impact of its operating, investing,and financing activities on cash flows over an accounting period.
Value It is any asset depends on the stream of after-tax cash flows it produces. Tax rates and other aspects of our tax system are changed by Congress every year or so.
Income tax rates They're progressive-the higher one's income, the larger the percentage paid in taxes, up to a point.
Assets Such as stocks, bonds, and real estate are defined as capital assets. A capital asset is sold for more that its cost= capital gain. If the capital asset is sold for a loss=capital gain. The capital asset is sold for a loss it is called a capital loss.
Operating income Paid out as dividends is subject to double taxation: the income is first taxed at the corporate level, and then shareholders must pay personal taxes on their dividends.
Interest income It's received by a corporation is taxed as ordinary income however, 70 percent of is dividends received by one corporation from another are excluded from taxable income.
corporate operating losses It can be carried back to each of the preceding three years and carried forward for the next 15 years to offset taxable income in those years
S corporations they are small businesses which have the limited-liability benefits of the corporate form of organization yet obtain the benefits of being taxed only once at the individual level like a partnership or a proprietorship.
