The design or format of the journals varies from business to business and depends on the information needs of each business. If a particular type of transaction occurs frequently, it usually has its own column in the journals.
Annie has decided to prepare accounting reports for July. July is thus the reporting period.
The Cash Flow Statement reports on cash receipts for the reporting period less cash payments for the reporting period and calculates the cash balance at the end of the reporting period. Most of the data for the Cash Flow Statement comes from the cash journals.
Annie the Architect: Cash Flow Statement for July 2019 Cash Receipts $ $ Get the data from the Cash Receipts Journal. Cash Payments
Get the cash at start from the Balance Sheet at the start of the reporting period.
This is the most important value the cash balance at the end. 1. The accounting process.
2. Income Statement:
Annie the Architect: Income Statement for July 2019 Revenue $ $
The definition of profit is revenue less expenses for the reporting period. The Income Statement reports on revenue and expenses for the period to determine profit or loss. The revenue activity for Annie the Architect is Consultation Fees. Annie could call this revenue other names such as Fees or Takings etc. Each business can decide the name it uses for its revenue activity. Source Annie the Architects revenue data from the Cash Flow Statement or Cash Receipts Journal. Expenses work to reduce profit. Overtime, you will become skilled at identifying expenses. To assist you, see the top section of the Cash Payments Journal and look for items in the IS row with this symbol: ( exp.) (CPJ)

Calculations/schedules:
Sometimes at the end of the reporting period, calculations have to be done to help prepare the new Balance Sheet. Calculations are usually done in a schedule like this: Office Assets Schedule at 31/7/19 $ Balance at start (Balance Sheet) Add new office assets (CPJ) Balance at end
At the end of the reporting period, a business will prepare a new Balance Sheet to report on the assets and equities at that point in time. The data comes from the Balance Sheet at the start of the reporting period plus any relevant changes that have occurred to assets and equities over the reporting period.

3. Balance Sheet:
Annie the Architect: Balance Sheet at 31/8/19 Assets $ Equities $ Bank Liabilities Office assets AMP Loan Vehicle Owners Equity Equipment Capital, Annie Less net loss Total assets Total equities $ The Balance Sheet now reports liabilities as an equity. Liabilities are obligations to individuals or businesses, in this example, AMP. AMP has an ownership or claim or interest in the assets of the business until the loan is repaid by Annie the Architect.
Most businesses have liabilities, so for most businesses equities is made up of two components: liabilities and owners equity. Liabilities is the external ownership in the assets and owners equity is the internal ownership in the assets.

The equality between assets and equities or the relationship between the values of assets, liabilities and owners equity is often called the accounting equation.
