♦ Relevant knowledge
The balance sheets are a type of financial document that summarises the overall financial position of the company in terms of liabilities, assets, and equity. The total assets must always be at least equal to the total of equity and liabilities. This is built on the accounting equation that says assets = Liabilities + Equity. It is extremely complete as all amounts are entered into the appropriate accounts and can assist the user to make the right decision in their process.
