Financial Reporting F014F5
1. **Problem Statement:** Alicia needs to prepare financial reports (cash flow statement, balance sheet) and a non-financial report to support her grant application.
2. **Calculate Net Income (Profit or Loss):**
- Total Money IN (Revenue): $10,800 + 1,450 + 600 + 150 = $13,000
- Total Money OUT (Expenses): $4,900 + 3,200 + 1,850 + 300 + 150 = $10,400
Net Income = Total Revenue - Total Expenses = $13,000 - 10,400 = $2,600
3. **Prepare Cash Flow Statement:**
- Starting cash: $2,000 (bank) + $200 (cash-on-hand) = $2,200
- Cash inflows: $10,800 + 1,450 + 600 + 150 = $13,000
- Cash outflows: $4,900 + 3,200 + 1,850 + 300 + 150 = $10,400
- Ending cash = Starting cash + inflows - outflows = $2,200 + 13,000 - 10,400 = $4,800
4. **Prepare Balance Sheet:**
Assets:
- Bank: $2,000
- Cash-on-hand: $200
- Food stock: $200
- Equipment: $350
Total Assets = $2,000 + 200 + 200 + 350 = $2,750
Liabilities:
- Parents' loan: $1,000 + $150 = $1,150
Equity (Owner's equity) = Assets - Liabilities = $2,750 - 1,150 = $1,600
5. **Ethical Financial Practices Paragraph:**
"The Juice Hub maintains transparent and responsible financial management by promptly paying bills with bank cheques, accurately tracking all income and expenses, and responsibly managing loans.
