In any industry, whether manufacturing or service, we have multiple departments, which function day in day out to achieve organizational goals. The functioning of these departments may or may not be interdependent, but at the end of the day, they are linked together by one common thread – Accounting & Finance department. The accounting & financial aspects of each and every department are recorded and are reported to various stakeholders. There are two different types of reporting – Financial reporting for various stakeholders & Management Reporting for internal management of an organization. Both these reporting’s are important and are an integral part of the Accounting & reporting system of an organization. But considering the number of stakeholders involved and statutory & other regulatory requirements, Financial Reporting is a very important and critical task of an organization. It is a vital part of Corporate Governance.

Financial reporting is essentially a way of following standard practices to give the world an accurate depiction of a company’s finances, including their :

  • Revenues
  • Expenses
  • Profits
  • Capital
  • Cashflow

All of these financial KPIs are important because they show the “health” of a company – at least when it comes to money.

Common Financial Report Examples

The income statement shows the revenue and expenses of the company over a period of time.

Business owners can analyse the income statement to see if companies are operating efficiently and producing enough profit to fund their current operations and growth.

We at The Going Concern prepare an Income Statement on monthly/quarterly/half yearly/yearly basis to help business owners to take their business decisions for balancing fiscal year to achieve yearly goals.
