ACCRUAL-BASED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: CONSIDERATIONS OF THE BALANCE SHEET

Within a financial statement, the balance sheet should be classified, separating current assets and liabilities from long-term assets and liabilities.  Current amounts include anything that is expected to be converted into cash within a year.

In reviewing the balance sheet, items to consider include:

  • Whether all receivables are collectible
  • Whether the value of inventory is overstated due to obsolescence
  • Whether all amounts owed are reflected as liabilities
