What is Balance Sheet?

Answer Posted / s balasubramanian

Balance sheet is a financial statement containing assets
and liabilities of a company as on a particular date say
31st March. The position will differ on 1st April.

The difference between P&L A/c and Balance sheet is

P&L A/c is the working results of income and expenditure
for the one year period i.e., 1st April to 31st March,
whereas balance sheet financial position only on a
particular date.

I welcome questions in finance, accounts, financial
analysis etc., and i will try to answer the questions as
far as possible.
