The items that are included in this note need to be displayed as separate line items but also be included in another line item on the income statement. After linking your trial balance to the reporting class codes on the TB sheet and entering all the required values on the FinInfo sheet, we recommend that you review the standard financial statements on the AFS sheet. We also recommend adding the tax calculation after the last note so that it forms part of the financial statements when printed or converted to a PDF document. If you need more headings than what we have included in the standard template, you can simply copy one of the existing headings. Note: Descriptions of all line items which are linked to the trial balance reporting classes (green or blue text in column A) can be edited on the Classes sheet and the descriptions of all the financial information reporting classes (orange and red text) can be edited on the FinInfo sheet. The note includes four other income items but also includes two additional lines for interest received. The following steps need to be completed in order to ensure that the trial balance for the new financial period is correctly included on the TB sheet: Rounding can have a significant impact on financial statements because the amounts that are displayed on the financial statements may not always add up to the totals displayed.

If you are compiling financial statements for previous periods, you may however need to change the column headings accordingly (start with the year before the comparative period in column E). The property, plant & equipment items basically have the same reporting classes as the corresponding classes listed on the Classes sheet but each of these codes on the FinInfo sheet starts with an "F" and ends in a different character (the items on the Classes sheet end with a "G"). The code again starts with an "F" and ends in either a "C" or a "R". Our unique trust financial statement format consists of automated reports including an income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and the notes to the financial statements. The year-end month is used to determine the appropriate year-end date and previous year-end date which are included in a number of notes to the financial statements. Much better, we have provided you with a free balance sheet template to ease your financial balancing. You can also make changes to the default content and hide any items not applicable to your business. One of the most important points to note is that the current and comparative periods are determined based on the year specified on the Setup sheet. The trust capital and reserves calculations are based on the amounts calculated in the appropriate notes. Step 3: Calculate Total Amount of Liabilities. TB - a complete trial balance for each annual period should be included on this sheet and each account in the trial balance should be linked to the appropriate financial statement reporting class by entering or copying the class code into column B.
