Introduction

• The particular services each financial firm chooses to offer and the overall size of each financial-service organization are reflected in its financial statements

• Financial statements can be viewed as a “road map”▫ Tell us where a financial firm has been in the past, where it is

now, and possibly where it is headed in the future• The two main financial statements that managers,

customers, and the regulatory authorities rely upon are▫ The balance sheet (Report of Condition)▫ The income statement (Report of Income)

5-3




An Overview of Balance Sheets and Income Statements• The Report of Condition shows the amount and composition of funds

sources (financial inputs) drawn upon to finance lending and investing activities and how much has been allocated to loans, securities, and other funds uses (financial outputs) at any given point in time

• In contrast, the financial inputs and outputs on the Report of Income show how much it has cost to acquire funds and to generate revenues from the uses the financial firm has made of those funds

• The Report of Income also shows the revenues (cash flow) generated by selling services to the public, including making loans and servicing customer deposits

• The Report of Income shows net earnings after all costs are deducted from the sum of all revenues, some of which will be reinvested in the financial firm for future growth and some of which will flow to stockholders as dividends

The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition)

• A balance sheet lists the assets, liabilities, and equity capital (owners’ funds) held by or invested in a bank or other financial firm on any given date

5-6




The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition) (continued)• For banks and other depository institutions the assets on the

balance sheet are of four major types:▫ Cash in the vault and deposits held at other depository institutions (C)▫ Government and private interest-bearing securities purchased in the open

market (S)▫ Loans and lease financings made available to customers (L)▫ Miscellaneous assets (MA)

• Liabilities fall into two principal categories:▫ Deposits made by and owed to various customers (D)▫ Nondeposit borrowings of funds in the money and capital markets (NDB)

• Equity capital represents long-term funds the owners contribute (EC)

5-7




The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition) (continued)• Cash assets (C) are designed to meet the financial firm’s need for

liquidity• Security holdings (S) are a backup source of liquidity and include

investments that provide a source of income• Loans (L) are made principally to supply income• Miscellaneous assets (MA) are usually dominated by fixed assets

(plant and equipment) and investments in subsidiaries (if any)• Deposits (D) are typically the main source of funding for banks

▫ Nondeposit borrowings (NDB) are carried out mainly to supplement deposits and provide the additional liquidity that cash assets and securities cannot provide

• Equity capital (EC) supplies the long-term, relatively stable base of financial support upon which the financial firm will rely to grow and to cover any extraordinary losses it incurs

5-8




The Balance Sheet (Report of Condition) (continued)• One useful way to view the balance sheet identity is to note that

liabilities and equity capital represent accumulated sources of funds, which provide the needed spending power to acquire assets

• A bank’s assets, on the other hand, are its accumulated uses of funds, which are made to generate income for its stockholders, pay interest to its depositors, and compensate its employees for their labor and skill

• Thus, the balance sheet identity can be pictured simply as:

from customers, and borrowings in the money market▫ Thrifts’ income statements are heavily tilted toward

revenue from loans and by the interest they must pay on deposits and money market borrowings

▫Other groups in the financial-service industries such as finance companies, life and property/casualty insurers, mutual funds, and security brokers and dealers▫ Their financial statements include sources and uses of

funds unique to the functions of these industries
