- Financial statements are prepared to summarize changes resulting from business transactions that occur during an accounting period. The preparation of the financial statements is the seventh step in the accounting cycle.
- The financial statements may be handwritten or typed but most often are prepared on a computer.
- The income statement reports the net income or net loss for the period. The main purpose of the income statement is to provide a report of revenue earned and the expenses incurred over a specific period of time.

- The balance sheet is a report of the balances in all assets, liabilities and owner equity account at the end of the period.

- The current ratio is the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. Current assets are those that can convert to cash during the normal business cycle. They are cash in bank, accounts receivable and supplies. Current liabilities are debt of the business that must be paid within the next accounting period like accounts payable. A quick ratio measures the relationship between short-term assets and current liability. Short term assets are those that can be quickly converted to cash. It is computed by dividing total cash and receivable by total current liabilities. A ratio of 2:1 or higher is considered favorable by creditors.
