we are profitable here . we should be moving north with this .we are showing profit in first and second quarter of 2012 . we don't get end of year financials until july 31 2013 the fiscal year 2012 ends june 30 2013. if you look at the financials that I put up they look good actually they look great. when you read them look at revs and profit. I know everybody wells about the liabilities. they have nothing to do with the profit and revenue. here is a article the explains how assets , liabilities, and equity works it is all there just to show that every thing balances out that what the balace sheet shows. assets= liabilitie+equity they need to equal out. if you look at the bottom of the balance sheet it has total liabilities + equity. look at total assets and at total liabilities+ equity they balance out . that is what we want to see. if you also look in the balance sheet it tells you what was paid in taxes.
What is the Accounting Equation and How Does It Work
What is an accounting equation? This is the relationship expressed between the three basic accounting elements in the balance sheet or statement of financial position i.e., assets, liabilities and equity. All accounting or financial information is recorded within the framework of the accounting equation.
The following are the parts of the Accounting Equation as shown in the balance sheet (statement of financial position:
Assets – are the resources controlled by the entity as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity. This includes cash, receivables, inventories, prepayments, investments, property and equipment.
Liabilities – are the present obligations of the enterprise arising from past events, the settlement of which is expected to result in an outflow from the enterprise of resources embodying economic benefits. This includes accounts payable, accrued expenses, income tax payable, unearned revenue and loans payable.
Equity – this is the owner/s’ interest on the assets of the enterprise after deducting all its liabilities. The structure of equity depends on the form of a business: sole proprietorship (owner’s equity), partnership (partners’ equity), stock corporation (stockholders’ equity), and nonstick – nonprofit corporation (fund balances or members’ equity).
The following are the accounting equation for the different forms of business or enterprise:
For sole proprietorships:
Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity
For partnerships:
Assets = Liabilities + Partners’ Equity
For stock corporations:
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity
For non-stock, non-profit corporations:
Assets = Liabilities + Fund balances
Because of the double-entry accounting, this equation should always be in balance. The amount on the left side of the equation should always equal to the amount on the right side of the equation. If assets increase, liabilities and/or equity must increase by the same amount. If assets decrease, liabilities and/or equity must also decrease. An increase in an asset may also have a corresponding decrease in another asset account or an increase in liability may also have a corresponding decrease in another liability account.
To further understand the accounting equation, let’s take the following example:
| Assets = | Liabilities + | Owner’s Equity |
| Cash: P10,000 | Accounts payable: P7,000 | Capital: P30,000 |
| Accounts Receivable: P20,000 | Accrued expenses: P3,000 | Drawings: (P15,000) |
| Supplies: P10,500 | Bank loans: P6,000 | Revenues: P50,000 |
| Equipment: P20,500 | Income tax payable: P4,000 | Expenses: (P24,000) |
| Total Assets: P61,000 | Total Liabilities: P20,000 | Total Equity: P41,000 |
As we can see, the total assets (P61,000) is equal to the total liabilities and equity (P20,000+41,000=P61,000). The assets should always be balance with the sum of liabilities and equity. If an asset increases by P5,000, there must also be a total amount of P5,000 increase in liabilities and/or equity, or a total amount of P5,000 decrease in another asset account. The accounting equation expresses the balance sheet. That is why it is called the balance sheet because the total amount of assets should always be balance to the total amount of liabilities and equity.
