| Balance Sheet | |
 A company's financial statement that reports the assets, liabilities and net worth at a specific time. |
|
 You will notice that assets = liabilities + shareholders' equity. This equation is true for all balance sheets. If the balance sheet is "consolidated" it just means that the company is a corporate group rather than a single company. |
