Finance Review Financial Statements
Review
Statement of Financial Position - Balance Sheet
Reports the firm’s assets, liabilities and equity at a given point of time

Financial Statements
Finance Review Balance Sheet
The Balance Sheet Reports the firm’s assets, liabilities and equity at a given point of time
Assets
Current (life less than one year)
Fixed (life longer than one year)
Liabilities and Owners’ Equity
Current (life less than one year)
Long term ( life longer than one year)
Balance Sheet Identity
Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity

Debt and Equity are sources of financing for the firm
The use of debt in a firm’s capital structure is called financial leverage
The more leverage, the higher the risk of financial distress

Finance Review Income Statement
The income statement measures performance over a specified period of time (period, quarter, year).
Income Statement Equation(s):
EBIT = Net sales – COGS – Operating expense
Net Income = EBIT – Interest - Tax
Addition to REA = Net income - dividends
Net income elements
Dividends paid to shareholders
Addition to retained earnings

Finance Review Market versus Book Value
Book value corresponds to the balance sheet value (according to US GAAPs) of the assets, liabilities, and equity and is generally not what they are actually worth.
Market value or true value corresponds to the price at which the assets, liabilities, or equity can actually be bought or sold and it is relevant for managers and investors.

| Net fixed assets | 500 | 600 | Long term | 200 | 200 |

| Total Assets | 600 | 900 | Total L&E | 600 | 900 |
Review
Finance Review Difference between Accounting Income and Cash Flow
Review
Income Statement is not a measurement of Cash Flow
Net Sales of $5,000 but AR increase of $1,500. Cash from sales = $3,500 ($5,000 - $1,500)
Inventory cost of $3,000 but AP increase of $500. Cash to vendors = $2,500 ($3,000 - $500)
Recognize revenue when it is fully earned, not when cash is received
Recognized expenses needed for the generation of revenue, not when cash is paid
Expenses charged against revenue that do not affect cash flow. The most important is depreciation.
Accrual Basis Accounting
Noncash Items in the Income Statement
Finance Review Statement of Cash Flow
The Statement of Cash flow identify the sources of cash over a period of time and its use. It is classified by:
Financing:
Loans or financing activity
Operating.
From the operation of the company
Investing.

internal order, or
project
Allow a company to create real time balance sheets for segments
GL
New General Ledger Document Principle
GL
The SAP document principle provides a solid and important framework for a strong internal control system – a requirement of law for companies that operate in the United States and in most other countries in the world.
Unique document
Each business transaction impacting FI writes data to the SAP database creating a uniquely numbered electronic document.
Can not be deleted
Once a financial document is written to the SAP database can not be deleted , although it can be changed to some degree or reverse its effect.
Critical info
It contains, information like the responsible person, date and time of transaction, and commercial content
Recall document
The document number can be used to recall the transaction at a later date.

What recommendations would you give to a new SAP implementation in regards the settings for vendor and customer master records?
What are the benefits of AP and AR subledger?
How do you link the AP and AR sub-ledger and the postings to FI?
What are the benefits of the open item management functionality in accounts payable and accounts receivable?
Why the multi-currency functionality of SAP is one of its greatest benefits?
