2.1 The Balance Sheet
An accountant’s snapshot of the firm’s accounting value at a specific point in time
The Balance Sheet Identity is:
Assets ≡ Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity

Note that Slides 4 and 7 from Chapter 1 could be reused here to emphasize the general structure of the balance sheet.
The left-hand side of the balance sheet lists the assets of the firm. Current assets are listed first because they are the most liquid. Fixed assets can include both tangible and intangible assets, and they are listed at the bottom because they generally are not very liquid. These are a direct result of management’s investment decisions. (Please emphasize that “investment decisions” are not limited to investments in financial assets.)
Note that the balance sheet does not list some very valuable assets, such as the people who work for the firm. The liabilities and equity (or ownership) components of the firm are listed on the right-hand side. This indicates how the assets are paid for. Since the balance sheet has to balance, total equity = total assets – total liabilities. The portion of equity that can most easily fluctuate to create this balance is retained earnings. The right-hand side of the balance sheet is a direct result of management’s financing decisions.
Remember that shareholders’ equity consists of several components, and that total equity includes all of these components not just the “common stock” item. In particular, remind students that retained earnings belong to the shareholders.
Take Notice! (on the following Balance Sheet)
Assets exactly equal liabilities + equity
Assets are listed in order of liquidity
The amount of time it would take to convert them to cash in an operating business
Obviously cash and A/R are more liquid than property plant and equipment
Liabilities are listed in the order in which they come due

Balance Sheet Analysis
When analyzing a balance sheet, the Finance Manager should be aware of three concerns:
Accounting liquidity
Debt versus equity
Value versus cost
2-‹#›
Copyright © 2018 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education.
Accounting Liquidity
Refers to the ease and quickness with which assets can be converted to cash—without a significant loss in value
Current assets are the most liquid
Some fixed assets are intangible
The more liquid a firm’s assets, the less likely the firm is to experience problems meeting short-term obligations
Liquid assets frequently have lower rates of return than fixed assets

Liquidity is a very important concept. Students tend to remember the “convert to cash quickly” component of liquidity, but often forget the part about “without loss of value.” Remind them that we can convert anything to cash quickly if we are willing to lower the price enough, but that doesn’t mean it is liquid.
Also, point out that a firm can be TOO liquid. Excess cash holdings lead to overall lower returns. See the IM for a more complete discussion of this issue.
Debt versus Equity
Creditors generally receive the first claim on the firm’s cash flow.
Shareholders’ equity is the residual difference between assets and liabilities.
Debt and equity have different costs; the relationship between them has an impact on the firm’s profitability.

Value versus Cost
Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), financial statements of firms in the U.S. carry assets at historical cost.
Market value is the price at which the assets, liabilities, and equity could actually be bought or sold, which is a completely different concept from historical cost.

2.2 The Income Statement
Measures financial performance over a specific period of time
The accounting definition of income is:
Revenue – Expenses ≡ Income

Income Statement Analysis
There are three things to keep in mind when analyzing an income statement:
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
Noncash Items
Time and Costs
2-‹#›
Copyright © 2018 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education.
GAAP
The matching principal of GAAP dictates that revenues be matched with expenses.
Thus, income and expenses are reported when earned or incurred, even though no cash flow may have occurred.
2-‹#›
Copyright © 2018 McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education.
Noncash Items
Depreciation is the most apparent non-cash item. No firm ever writes a check for “depreciation.”
Other noncash accounts include uncollected sales on account, unpaid purchases on account and deferred taxes, none of which represent a cash flow.
Thus, net income does not equal cash flow
2-‹#›

Time and Costs
Think of the future as having two parts: short run and long run
In the short run some costs are fixed and others variable:
In the short run equipment and commitments are fixed
Production can only be varied by altering labor and materials
In the long run all costs are variable
2-‹#›

Costs and Purpose
Financial accountants do not distinguish between variable costs and fixed costs
Accounting costs are usually treated as period or product costs
Product Costs: Total production costs
i.e., raw materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead
Period Costs: Costs allocated to a time period
i.e., selling, general and administrative costs
Such as accountant salaries, office supplies

2.3 Taxes
Taxes impact income; important to financial decisions
Taxes come from various sources:
Federal, state, excise
Taxes are always changing
Marginal vs. average tax rates
Marginal – the percentage paid on the next dollar earned
Average = the tax bill / taxable income
Financial decisions are incremental; applicable tax rate is the marginal rate
Other taxes

Point out that taxes can be a very important component of the decision making process, but that what they learn about tax specifics now could change tomorrow. Consequently, it is important to keep up with the changing tax laws and to utilize specialists in the tax area when making decisions where taxes are involved.
www: Click on the web surfer icon to go to the IRS web site for the most up-to-date tax information.
It is important to point out that we are concerned with the taxes that we will pay if a decision is made. Consequently, the marginal tax rate is what we should use in our analysis.
Point out that the tax rates discussed in the book are just federal taxes. Many states and cities have income taxes as well, and those taxes should figure into any analysis that we conduct.
Marginal versus Average Tax Rates
Suppose your firm earns $4 million in taxable income:
What is the firm’s tax liability?
What is the average tax rate?
What is the marginal tax rate?
If you are considering a project that will increase the firm’s taxable income by $1 million, what tax rate should you use in your analysis?

Tax liability:
.15(50,000) + .25(75,000 – 50,000) + .34(100,000 – 75,000) + .39(335,000 – 100,000) + .34(4,000,000 – 335,000) = $1,360,000
Average rate: 1,360,000 / 4,000,000 = .34 or 34% Marginal rate comes from the table, and it is 34%
We should use the marginal rate with an expected additional 34,000 in taxes.
2.4 Net Working Capital
Net Working Capital ≡
Current Assets – Current Liabilities
NWC usually grows with the firm

Here we see NWC grow to $275 million in 2017 from $252 million in 2016.
This increase of $23 million is an investment of the firm.
$23 million
$275m = $761m- $486m
$252m = $707- $455

2.5 CASH FLOW OF THE FIRM
In finance, the most important item that can be extracted from financial statements is the actual cash flow of the firm.
Cash flow received from the firm’s assets must equal the cash flows to the firm’s creditors and stockholders.
CF(A)≡ CF(B) + CF(S)
In other words, the cash generated by assets enables the firm to pay its debts and provide a return to shareholders.
Accounting cash flow and financial cash flow are not necessarily equal.

2.5 The Statement of Cash Flows
There is an official accounting statement called the Statement of Cash Flows.
This helps explain the change in accounting cash, which for U.S. Composite is $33 million in 2014.
The three components of the statement of cash flows are:
Cash flow from operating activities
Cash flow from investing activities
Cash flow from financing activities

It is extremely important to remind students that accounting cash flow and actual cash flow as calculated earlier are different values.
U.S.C.C. Cash Flow from Operating Activities
To calculate cash flow from operations, start with net income, add back noncash items like depreciation and adjust for changes in current assets and liabilities (other than cash).
