A balance sheet, called the statement of financial position under IFRS, shows what a business owns (assets), what it owes (liabilities) and the owners' interest (equity) at a single date. It always balances because assets = liabilities + equity.

Tutors cover preparation and analysis.
| Area | Topics |
|---|---|
| Structure | Assets, liabilities and equity; IFRS and UK GAAP formats |
| Preparation | From a trial balance, with adjustments |
| Non-current assets | Depreciation, revaluation, disposals |
| Working capital | Inventory, receivables, payables, cash |
| Long-term finance | Loans, leases, share capital |
| Analysis | Liquidity, solvency and gearing ratios |
Illustrative balances at the year end for a company.
| Item | Amount (£) |
|---|---|
| Non-current assets (carrying amount) | 150,000 |
| Inventory | 20,000 |
| Trade receivables | 15,000 |
| Cash | 5,000 |
| Total assets | 190,000 |
| Share capital | 80,000 |
| Retained earnings | 35,000 |
| Total equity | 115,000 |
| Bank loan (non-current) | 50,000 |
| Trade payables (current) | 25,000 |
| Total equity and liabilities | 190,000 |
Total assets equal total equity and liabilities, so the balance sheet balances.
Using the balance sheet above.
| Ratio | Working | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Current ratio | Current assets ÷ current liabilities = 40,000 ÷ 25,000 | 1.6 |
| Quick ratio | (Current assets − inventory) ÷ current liabilities = 20,000 ÷ 25,000 | 0.8 |
| Gearing (debt ÷ (debt + equity)) | 50,000 ÷ (50,000 + 115,000) | ≈ 30% |
A quick ratio below 1 means the company relies on selling inventory to pay short-term debts; compare with the industry before concluding.

The price of balance sheet help depends on the number of items and adjustments and your deadline. A simple balance sheet costs less than a full set of statements with analysis. You always see the price first: a fixed quote for homework and assignment guidance, or the tutor's hourly rate for live lessons, with no contract and no minimum number of sessions. Refunds follow our refund policy.
