Note the new line item on Lenny's Income Statement Income from Operations. This is Lenny's income from the normal operations of the lawn mowing business. Interest Expense, which is not a cost of operating the business but rather a cost of financing the business, is shown below Income from Operations. Interest Expense is subtracted from Income from Operations to arrive at Net Income.

Lenny's Lawn Service, Inc. Statement of Stockholders' Equity

This is the first time you have prepared a formal Statement of Stockholders' Equity for Lenny's. This statement simply shows what caused the changes in the Stockholders' Equity amounts from last month to this month. Note that the Retained Earnings column on the statement looks the same as the calculation you have been doing each month to determine the Retained Earnings balance needed for the Balance Sheet. Thus, if you prepare a formal Statement of Stockholders' Equity, you have already calculated the Retained Earnings balance needed for the Balance Sheet, and you have completed Step 6 in the Accounting Cycle.

CAUTION Enter amounts into the Balance Sheet by typing in the amounts. Do NOT copy cells from the General Ledger or Pre-Closing Trial Balance.

Note the following three new sub-totals appearing on Lenny's Balance Sheet:

Total Current Assets is a total of those assets, which will turn-into cash during the next 12 months or be consumed during the next 12 months. The comparison of Total Current Assets to Total Current Liabilities gives some indication of Lenny's liquidity -that is, its ability to pay its bills in the short-term.
Property & Equipment, net is the amount of Fixed Asset cost, which remains to be depreciated in future accounting periods. Total Current Liabilities is a total of those liabilities that will require payment in the next 12 months. In the case of Unearned Revenue, this current liability will be "paid-off" by Lenny's delivering mowing services to the university.
