This section contains a series of questions and exercises used to gain a better
understanding of the basic concepts behind financial statements. The questions and
exercises addressed in this section focus on the four main financial statements: (1)
Balance Sheet; (2) Income Statement; (3) Statement of Cash Flows; (4) Statement of
Owners Equity. Each of these statements combine the tools that can be used to evaluate
the performance and provide other useful information to better guide decision making in
a farm or ranch business.
The first set of exercises is a list of multiple choice and fill in the blank questions
that help identify the main components of the four different financial statements. These
questions should also allow the user to understand what the differences and similarities
are between each of the statements and how this can serve as a basis for communication
about the performance of a business.
The second set of exercises allow the user to piece together an actual set of
financial statements by using the information provided from an example ranch business.
The West Texas Ranch, in this case, has a list of accounts associated with each of the four
main financial statements. It is required that the user places each account into its proper
classification within each financial statement. The last page of this exercise contains the
information necessary to calculate the performance ratios of the business. The basic goal
of this exercise is to be able to identify proper placement of each of the accounts
associated with their respective financial statements. If done properly, the numbers used
in calculating the financial ratios should match up with some of the ones generated from
the financial statements.
