Financial Statement Preparation & Finalization

It is necessary that business owners in Dubai and in UAE should analyze the financial data on a regular basis to ensure the smooth functioning of their business.

The financial statement is finalized on the basis of the information from your general ledger and accounting journal, the income statement, the balance sheet, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows, and the information from the previous statement. 

1. The Income Statement 

 It is the Profit & Loss account and prepared on the basis of the information on sales revenue and expenses.

The Income Statement shows the following details:

  • The total profitability of your company for the time period
  • The returns from primary income sources, such as sales of the company's products and services 
  • The revenue from secondary sources: leases of a portion of the company’s business premises
  • The Revenue on sales of equipment or income on interest 
  • The business expenses for the time period
  • Losses from any activity, including current depreciation
  • Adjustment of provision to safeguard from future unexpected losses.

2. The Retained Earnings Statement/ The statement of Changes in Equity

It is the second financial statement a company must prepare in the accounting procedure. It shows the profit retained by the company for its growth, and that are distributed as dividends. Before preparing the statement of retained earnings, the net profit or loss must be calculated. It shows the movement in the equity of the company. Proper balancing of equity with the liability and assets is one of the factors deciding the liquidity position of the company. 

3. The Balance Sheet 

The Balance Sheet shows the financial position of a company pertaining to the assets, liabilities, and equity of the company. The assets of the company must be equal to the total of the liabilities and equity of that company. By analyzing the balance sheet, the investors or the owners of the company can understand where their company stands.

4. The Cash Flow Statement 

The Cash Flow Statement is prepared last because it includes the information from all the other three previously prepared financial statements. It shows the operating cash flows, investment cash flows, and financing cash flows. It gives the owner a complete picture of the cash position of the company, i.e. the position of the cash inflows and the position of the cash outflows. This statement helps the company make a decision towards the diversification of the business or whether further investment is required or not.
