Document Summary

Afm 101 financial statements & business decisions. Financial accounting focuses on the external users, for internal users there is a separate accounting course called management accounting. External users are: profit-oriented organizations and non-profit organizations (hospitals and school count as non-profit organizations). A balance sheet shows the financial position of a company at a point in time while an income statement shows it over time. The statement of retained earnings is almost identical to the statement of shareholder"s equity; it shows the retained earnings of a company over time. The cash flow statement reports the inflow and outflow of cash in an organization over time. Canadian reserve agency has authority to force organizations to create specific financial statements; this power also extends to external users. The four major statements are a part of gaap.
