Balance Sheet UK Explained (How to Read a Balance Sheet & Understanding Balance Sheet Terminology)

[@richardbalogh2433]

Great video. Thank you :)

[@marksmith2738]

Very nice explanation but one thing that would be super helpful that I have not found anywhere on KZbin is a walk through the Micro-entity Balance sheet that Companies House (UK) are looking for (I mean in particular the accounting information for someone who does not have or has not prepared a balance sheet to make reference to). I've tried matching up your explanations with their requests but find it quite confusing and difficult. Thanks

Hi Rebecca, firstly thank you so much for this no nonsense guide breaking down all the accounting jargon for us noobs!! I'm trying to file my own Micro Entity accounts and one thing I don't think was covered was something called "Provisions for liabilities" - can you explain what this means please?

[@RebeccasFinanceTutorials]

Hi hun thank you for your lovely comment x I'll break it down in another video because it can get quite complicated

[@nigelleahy6190]

Super helpful, thank you! I have a question - what are the main signs on a balance sheet of a company doing well or doing badly? Thnx

[@RebeccasFinanceTutorials]

Hi Nigel it's not that simple unfortunately because while a company might have a lot of assets and cash sat on their balance sheet, they might not be using the funds they have to their advantage whereas a company who has a lot of debt might have a good protected npv in future following the investment of money into assets for use in the business. Its always worth looking at the companys projected figures where possible for further analysis x

[@nigelleahy6190]

@@RebeccasFinanceTutorials Thanks Rebecca. Don't suppose you've covered NPV in any of your vids?

You are most welcome 😊

Are the amounts on a balance sheet listed in thousands, hundreds, or tens? Example, if the balance sheet reads 12,397, would that actually be 12,397,000 pounds? Or is every balance sheet different? If so, how can you tell what increments are being used?

[@RebeccasFinanceTutorials]

Hi Brian at the top of the balance sheet in each column it will state if this is £000 or simply £ for example which will give the rounding c

@@RebeccasFinanceTutorials thanks again! I thought so. I’m from the US so when I was looking at a balance sheet from London I was a little thrown off. Thanks again!

There is an accountant, and then there is a business science strategist. But, you've got to walk first.
