CA @ Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Rohilkhand University
I have completed my Bachelors in Accounting (2014) & Masters in Finance (2016). My interests outside of school include playing outdoor sports like badminton, cricket, tennis etc. and reading. I believe that my attitude towards self-learning and always improving myself is what separates me from the rest and this is a golden opportunity for me to showcase that.

A trial balance is a sheet that contains a list of all ledger accounts having either a debit or credit balance, as on a particular date. It is prepared by an entity to ensure the arithmetical accuracy of its books of accounts. If the total of the debit side is equal to the credit side, the trial balance is said to be balanced. However, it does not mean that there are no errors in it because some of those errors cannot be detected even if the trial balance is matched like errors of principle, compensatory errors etc.
Income statement is a financial statement which is prepared by an entity to ascertain the net income earned or loss suffered for a particular period. In other words, it is used for measuring the financial performance of an entity during a specific period. It provides valuable information to an entity about its business operations, management efficiency by emphasizing on the revenues and expenses during a specific period.
A balance sheet is a statement of financial position for an entity which is used for reporting its assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity as on a particular point of time. It follows the fundamental accounting equation, where the total of assets is equal to the sum total of liabilities and shareholders' equity. The assets and liabilities of the entity are categorized into current (short-term) and non-current (long-term).
Under cash basis of accounting, revenues and expenses are recognized when cash is received or paid. This system is quite simple for small businesses because there is no need to keep a track of the accounts receivable or payable. On the other hand, under accrual basis, revenues and expenses are recognized as and when they are incurred, irrespective of the fact whether the cash is actually received or paid. Accrual basis of accounting provides a better and true picture of the revenues and expenses for an entity during a specific period, therefore it is widely used by business entities for the purpose of reporting.
A Cash Flow statement is a part of financial statements of an entity which contains a summary of cash inflows and outflows during a particular period.
