Description
In financial accounting, a balance sheet is a summary of the financial balances (assets and liabilities) of an organisation.
This Tableau Accelerator allows you to:
- Appraise your financial positions: Balance Sheet (Assets & Liabilities)
Answer key business questions
- What is our organisation’s financial situation?
- How are our liabilities financed?
- What is your working capital?
- What are our total equity and debt to equity ratio?

Short term Assets & Liabilities
- Current Assets: Assets that are expected to be converted into cash in less than 12 months: Cash, Accounts Receivables, Inventory, Prepaid Expenses (expressed in currency)
- Current Liabilities: Bills that must be paid within 12 months of the date of the Balance Sheet: Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses, Current Portion of Debt, Income Taxes Payable (expressed in currency)
- Working Capital: Amount of money the enterprise has to work with in the short term (also called “Net Current Assets” or “Funds”) (expressed in currency)
Long term Assets & Liabilities
- Non-Current Assets: Long-term investments that are not easily converted to cash or are not expected to become cash within an accounting year (expressed in currency)
- Non-Current Liabilities: Long Term financial obligations that become due beyond 12 months (expressed in currency)
Total Assets & Liabilities
- Total Assets: The final amount of all gross investments, cash and equivalents, receivables and other assets as they are presented on the balance sheet (expressed in currency)
- Total Liabilities: Current Liabilities and Long-Term Debt (expressed in currency)
- Total Equity: Determines how much a company would have left over in assets if the company went out of business immediately (expressed in currency)
Liquidity Ratios
- Current ratio: Business’s ability to meet its payment obligations as they fall due
- Quick ratio: Determine a debtor’s ability to pay off current debt obligations with its most liquid assets (i.e.: “Cash” and “Accounts Receivable”)
Leverage Ratios
- Debt-to-Equity Ratio: Measures the degree to which a company is financing its operations with debt rather than its own resources
- Debt Ratio: Measures the extent of a company’s leverage. It can be interpreted as the proportion of a company’s assets that are financed by debt
- Debt-to-Asset Ratio: Defines how much debt a company owns compared to its assets. This information reflects how financially stable a company is (expressed in %)
