Balance Sheet

A balance sheet gives a financial picture of your company as of a specific date.

A balance sheet calculates how much your business is worth (your business's equity) by subtracting all the money your company owes (or its liabilities) from everything it owns (or its assets). Assets - Liability = Equity.
