A business balance sheet is the photograph of a company's financial status for a particular time frame. Included in the balance sheet are the company's total assets, liabilities and equity. The QuickBooks software program can rapidly create this financial statement through the use of its company reports tool.

2. Does QuickBooks Make Financial Statements?

QuickBooks offers four types of financial reports. The Trial Balance Report gives a list of the credits and debits of each account you have in QuickBooks. The Profit and Loss Report gives a summary of your income and expenses and tells you if your company is making a profit. The Balance Sheet totals your income, expense, liabilities and the value of your assets and equity to confirm the accounts have equal debit and credit amounts. The Cash Flows Report expresses you how you spend your money and in what way your profit grows over time.

3 By what method to Prepare Income Statements and Balance Sheets?

Income statements and balance sheets offer periodic overviews of a company's financial health. An income statement details expenditures and income during a chosen period -- typically a year -- while a balance sheet offers a photograph of what you own and what you owe at a specific moment in time. Together these documents can assistance you to evaluate whether your business is spending more money than it takes in or adding to its value.
