The Basics of Fi"a"cial State e"ts E)ercises

I"structio"s This section contains a series of questions and exercises used to gain a better understanding of the basic concepts behind financial statements. The questions and exercises addressed in this section focus on the four main financial statements: (1) Balance Sheet; (2) ncome Statement; (!) Statement of "ash #lo$s; (%) Statement of &$ner's (quit). (ach of these statements combine the tools that can be used to e*aluate the performance and pro*ide other useful information to better guide decision ma+ing in a farm or ranch business. The first set of exercises is a list of multiple choice and fill in the blan+ questions that help identif) the main components of the four different financial statements. These questions should also allo$ the user to understand $hat the differences and similarities are bet$een each of the statements and ho$ this can ser*e as a basis for communication about the performance of a business. The second set of exercises allo$ the user to piece together an actual set of financial statements b) using the information pro*ided from an example ranch business. The ,est Texas -anch. in this case. has a list of accounts associated $ith each of the four main financial statements. t is required that the user places each account into its proper classification $ithin each financial statement. The last page of this exercise contains the information necessar) to calculate the performance ratios of the business. The basic goal of this exercise is to be able to identif) proper placement of each of the accounts associated $ith their respecti*e financial statements. f done properl). the numbers used in calculating the financial ratios should match up $ith some of the ones generated from the financial statements.
