It shows the assets, liabilities, and equity of a business. 40 Keep in Mind Assets are things a business owns used to make goods or services, giving a business revenue. A business's liabilities are obligations to other companies, such as debts, loans, and other things that it should pay. Equity is the sum of all investments from the owner/s and the earnings that a business retains. 41 Keep in Mind One can differentiate current assets from non-current assets by identifying which assets are liquid and can be used within 12 months. On the other hand, one can differentiate current liabilities from non- current liabilities by determining which obligations need to be settled within 12 months. 42 Keep in Mind 43 Photo Credits Bibliography Slide 1: Close Up Shot of White Paper, by Rodnae Annand, David., Marchand, Donna. 2019.
