The Financial Statements
Short Exercises
(5 min.) S 1-1
- Assets are resources controlled by the company as a result of past events and from which
the company expects to receive future economic benefits.
Shareholders’ equity represents the insider claims of a business, the claims to the assets held by the owners of the business.
Assets and shareholders’ equity differ in that shareholders’ equity is a claim to assets.
Assets must be at least as large as shareholders’ equity. Equity can be smaller than assets.
- Both liabilities and shareholders’ equity are claims to assets.
Liabilities are the outsider claims to the assets of a business. Shareholders’ equity represents the insider claims to the assets of the business.
(5 min.) S 1-2

A different presentation should be:
a) Total assets = Total liabilities + Shareholders’ equity
= $150,000 + $150,000 = $300,000
b) Shareholders’ equity = Total assets – Total liabilities
= $290,000 – $90,000 = $200,000
c) Total liabilities = Total assets – Shareholders’ equity
= $220,000 – $120,000 = $100,000
