Financial Reporting
- Financial reporting and analysis is the process of gathering and maintaining track of financial data, such as a company's sales, costs, profits, capital, and cash flow. They support businesses in being tax law compliant and making well-informed strategic choices.
- Each of these financial KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) is important since it reveals a firm's overall financial 'health'. Success depends on these KPI reports, despite the fact that they don't reveal much about a company's management or culture.
- The entire business work in this procedure is reflected in the financial report. We can get a bird's eye view of our whole financial activity throughout a specific period due to financial reports. As a result, businesses are able to analyse any differences between the budget and the actual result and develop strategic financial plans for the future.

Types of Financial Reporting
The four main forms of financial statements that can be included in a financial report are income statements, balance sheets, a statement of retained earnings, and cash flow statements. The significance of each statement and its advantage are explained in the following information.
- Income Statement: Also referred to as a profit and loss statement, an income statement is a financial analysis document that highlights the revenue, expenses, gains, and losses of a company over a specified period. This statement's major objective is to determine whether the company is profitable. It accomplishes this by compiling a list of the major sales activities, production costs, and any other operational costs for a certain accounting period. The report calculates the business's profit (or loss) by deducting all costs from revenue.
- Balance Sheet: An organisation's balance sheet thoroughly breaks down its assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity. In essence, a balance sheet can be used for internal or external purposes and summarises the company's financial health at a specific point, which is often a monthly or quarterly period. On the one hand, it can be examined internally by any interested party to determine whether the business is moving in the right direction, such as management or employees. On the other hand, a balance sheet can be used externally by anyone considering investing in the business because the document offers helpful details regarding the resources that are accessible and how they were financed.
- Cash Flow Statement: A cash flow statement (CFS) reveals how much money enters and leaves a company. The CFS provides stakeholders with information on how a company manages cash to settle debt, pay for current expenses, and finance current and future investments. It is essential to the effective administration of a firm and contains components of both the income statement and the balance sheet. A cash flow statement is often split into three sections that group all the cash received and spent. The operating cash flow, which displays sales, costs, gains, and losses, is presented first. The investment cash flow, which displays sales and purchases of debt and stock, follows. The financial one provides information on long-term obligations like loan payments and equity assets like the sales of company stock.
- Statement of retained earnings: Related to the previous report type, the statement of retained earnings displays the company's accumulated profit following the addition of net income and the payment of dividends to shareholders. It displays the earnings a firm generated during the period under observation. It assists owners and decision-makers in analysing the company's financial status and assessing future reinvestments or expansion prospects based on the retained earnings available for the next accounting period. It may be produced alone in a balance sheet or as a component of an income statement.
