When making up a balance sheet, you’ll want to look for at least one balance sheet example. We have several free templates, some with examples, on this page that you can look at to gain a clearer understanding of what it’s all about. To understand your balance sheet, you should have some basic knowledge of business accounting. It will be useful when looking at your business’s debits and credits. These are the numbers that you want to balance. A basic formula to remember in accounting is Assets = Liabilities + Equity. Most balance sheets will be organized into three sections. These section will contain 3 subtotals, one for assets, one for liabilities and, if relevant, equity.
The balance sheet is basically a report version of the accounting equation also called the balance sheet equation where assets always equation liabilities plus shareholder’s equity. In this way, the balance sheet shows how the resources controlled by the business (assets) are financed by debt (liabilities) or shareholder investments (equity). Investors and creditors generally look at the statement of financial position for insight as to how efficiently a company can use its resources and how effectively it can finance them.
