  11. Balance Sheet • Measures the financial condition of a business at a specific point in time • A balance sheet totals assets and liabilities, determines net worth, and is used to calculate financial ratios and figures that measure a business

  12. Profit/Loss (Income) Statement • Used to determine the profit or loss of a business and explain changes in net worth • Summarizes the income and expense over a given period of time
