NATURE
The Statement of Financial Position often called the balance sheet, is a financial statement that
reports the assets, liabilities, and equity of a company on a given date. In other words, it lists the
resources, obligations, and ownership details of a company on a specific day.
USEFULNESS
This Financial report is useful in assessing present and future cash flows, liquidity and long-term
solvency of an entity.
Liquidity refers to the period of time before an asset is converted to cash or until a liability is paid.
Example of transaction regarding liquidity is when the company received money from the
costumer for rendering services to them or when the company paid to the supplier their obligation.
Long-term solvency refers to the riskiness of a company with regard o the amount of liabilities in
its capital structure. Generally, the risk to an investor/creditor increases as the percentage of
liabilities relative to equity increases. Solvency also provides information about the financial
flexibility, that is the ability of a company to meet its long-term debts and other financial
obligations. For instance, the higher the percentage of liabilities to its equity (Liability > Capital),
the more difficult will be to borrow additional funds either in investment opportunity or to meet
obligations.
LIMITATIONS
The Statement of Financial Position does not fully portray the market value of the entity as a going
concern nor its liquidation value. Many assets are measure at their historical cost. However, with
the adoption of Philippine Financial Reporting Standard (PFRS), the measurement of assets at fair
value became the process of presenting most of its assets.
