Balance is a static tool for assessing the entity's position, profit and loss on one hand and cash flow statement on the other hand. These are dynamic situations on one hand showing the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of the total consumption of resources ( profit and loss) and on the other hand entity's business viability (by cash flows). As reflection of financial position, the balance, established at the end of the reporting period (called a financial year), describes separately items of assets, liabilities and equity of the company. Assets are resources controlled by the enterprise as a result of past events and from which is expected to generate future economic benefits for the enterprise. The economic benefits correspond to a production potential, a possibility for conversion into cash or a reduction in output capacity of funds (cost reduction) that an asset contributes, directly or indirectly to a company-specific cash flow.
