8.Observations Drawn With Respect To Balance Sheet
In financial accounting, a balance sheet or statement of financial position is a summary of a
person's or organization's balances. Assets, liabilities and ownership equity are listed as of a
specific date, such as the end of its financial year. A balance sheet is often described as a
snapshot of a company's financial condition. Of the four basic financial statements, the balance
sheet is the only statement which applies to a single point in time. A company balance sheet has
three parts: assets, liabilities and ownership equity. The main categories of assets are usually
listed first and are followed by the liabilities. The difference between the assets and the liabilities
is known as equity or the net assets or the net worth or capital of the company and according to
the accounting equation, net worth must equal assets minus liabilities.

9.Liabilities
A liability is a debt assumed by a business entity as a result of its borrowing activities or other
fiscal obligations (such as funding pension plans for its employees). Liabilities are paid off under
either short-term or long-term arrangements. The amount of time allotted to pay off the liability
is typically determined by the size of the debt; large amounts of money usually are borrowed
under long-term plans.
Types of Liabilities:
CURRENT LIABILITIES: Current liabilities are short-term financial obligations that are paid off
within one year or one current operating cycle, whichever is longer. Current liabilities include
such accrued expenses as wages, taxes, and interest payments not yet paid; accounts payable;
short-term notes; cash dividends; and revenues collected in advance of actual delivery of goods
or services.
LONG-TERM LIABILITIES :Liabilities that are not paid off within a year, or within a business's
operating cycle, are known as long-term or noncurrent liabilities. Long-term liabilities include
notes, mortgages, lease obligations, deferred income taxes payable, and pensions and other post-
retirement benefits.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES :A third kind of liability accrued by companies is known as a
contingent liability. Contingent liabilities often come into play when a lawsuit or other legal
measure has been taken against a company. An as yet unresolved lawsuit concerning a business's
products or service, for example, would qualify as a contingent liability. Environmental cleanup
and/or protection responsibility sometimes falls under this classification as well, if the monetary
impact of new regulations or penalties on a company is uncertain.

Incomes and Gains
Income statement, also called profit and loss statement (P&L) and Statement of Operations, is a
company's financial statement that indicates how the revenue (money received from the sale of
products and services before expenses are taken out, also known as the "top line") is transformed
into the net income (the result after all revenues and expenses have been accounted for, also
known as the "bottom line"). The purpose of the income statement is to
show managers and investors whether the company made or lost money during the period being
reported.
The important thing to remember about an income statement is that it represents a period of
time. This contrasts with the balance sheet, which represents a single moment in time.
Charitable organizations that are required to publish financial statements do not produce an
income statement. Instead, they produce a similar statement that reflects funding sources
compared against program expenses, administrative costs, and other operating commitments.

Depreciation
In simple words we can say that depreciation is the reduction in the value of an asset due to
usage, passage of time, wear and tear, technological outdating or obsolescence, depletion,
inadequacy, rot, rust, decay or other such factors.
How to Calculate Depreciation
Depreciation expense is calculated utilizing either a straight line depreciation method or an
accelerated depreciation method. The straight line method calculates depreciation by spreading
the cost evenly over the life of the fixed asset. Accelerated depreciation methods such as
declining balance and sum of years digits calculate depreciation by expensing a large part of the
cost at the beginning of the life of the fixed asset.The required variables for calculating
depreciation are the cost and the expected life of the fixed asset. Salvage value may also be
considered.
Straight-Line Method:
Annual depriciation Expense = (Cost of Fixed Assets- Scrap Vaue)/ Life Time(years)
1) Accelerated Depreciation Methods :Accelerated depreciation methods such as declining
balance and sum of year’s digits calculate depreciation by expensing a large part of the cost at
the beginning of the life of the fixed asset. These methods are further classified into three:
i. Sum of the Years Digits - The first step is to sum the digits or numbers starting with the
life and going back to one. For example, an asset with a life of 5 would have a sum of digits
as follows: 5+ 4+ 3 +2 + 1 = 15. To find the percentage for each year divide the year's digit
by the sum.
Depreciation amount =
(Cost – residual value) * number of years of useful life left /sum of digits of the years of life.
ii. Written down value method - Under this method depreciation is calculated every year on the
net value of assets. Unlike in the straight line method depreciation amount is not the same every
year. Net value of assets in a year is the total value of assets after deducting last year’s
depreciation. In case the rate of depreciation is not given then the formula to calculate the rate is
as follows:
Rate of depreciation = 1 – n^residual value / cost
(Where n is the estimated useful life of the asset)
iii. Production Units methods - This method is used when the asset can be classified as a certain
number production units. For example for a vehicle the depreciation is calculated based on the
kilometers run. In such cases, the per unit depreciation is calculated, and the total depreciation is
known by multiplying with the total production units.
Rate of depreciation per unit = cost – residual value /cos
iv. Depreciation and amortization is calculated based on cost using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of the asset, unless the useful life is indefinite. Parts of property, plant and
equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item are depreciated
separately when the useful life of the parts do not coincide with the useful life of other parts of
the item.
Analysis of DLF
Depreciation on Fixed assets (including buildings and related equipment rented out and included
under current assets as stocks) is provided on a straight line method, at the rates and in the
manner prescribed in Schedule XIV to the Companies Act, 1956, or based on the estimated
useful lives of assets (as mentioned below), whichever is higher, as applicable: Depreciation in
respect of assets relating to the power generating division of one of the subsidiary companies of
the Group is provided on the straight line method in terms of the Electricity (Supply) Act, 1948
on the basis of Central Government Notification No. S.O 266 (E) dated March 29, 1994, from
the year immediately following the
Fixed assets (gross block) are stated
at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost comprises the purchase price and any
attributable cost of bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use. Building /
specific identifiable portion of Building, including related equipments are capitalized when the
construction is substantially complete or upon receipt of the occupancy certifi cate, whichever is
earlier.
Depreciation on assets (including buildings and related equipments rented out and included
under current assets as stocks) is provided on straight-line method at the rates and in the manner
prescribed in schedule XIV to the Companies Act,1956.

Observations with regard to Cash Flow Statement(CFS)
In financial accounting, a cash flow statement or statement of cash flows is a financial
statement that shows how changes in balance sheet and income accounts affect cash and cash
equivalents, and breaks the analysis down to operating, investing, and financing activities. As an
analytical tool, the statement of cash flows is useful in determining the short-term viability of a
company, particularly its ability to pay bills. International Accounting Standard 7 (IAS 7), is
the International Accounting Standard that deals with cash flow statements.
