Overview of Financial Statements
Balance Sheet(s) or Statement(s) of Financial Position• This Financial Statement tells a
user what the organization owns or owes at a particular point in time
• Assets = Liabilities + Equity
• ALE acronym: Assets, Liabilities, Equity. Assets are resources an organization uses to make money and stay in business. Liabilities represent money the organization owes. Equity, or net assets, equals corporate assets minus liabilities

Overview of Financial StatementsIncome Statement or Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets, or Statement of Income and Members’ Equity
• Statement that shows the revenues and expenses
• One important thing to remember about an income statement is that it represents a period of time similar to the cash flow statement. This contrasts with the balance sheet, which represents a single moment in time
• Patient Revenues are typically reported at net on an Income Statement, so we usually will need to look elsewhere on external financial statements such as in the footnotes for the Gross Patient Revenues
• Numbers with brackets () represent a subtraction from a total or subtotal
• Revenues – Expenses = Profit or (Loss)

Source of Financial Information In addition to this presentation, there are 5 sets of actual financial statements that we used for your to review. They are 5 healthcare organizations from Illinois. The financial statements are from 2008 – so they are a little dated, but the important thing is that they are from “real” organizations. Specifically, all 22 ratios in the presentation can be calculated using pages 2, 3, 4, and 13 of the 2008 Deaconess Health System Financial Statements. I have attempted to provide these in a large format at the end of the presentation for printing purposes to make it easier to follow along with the forthcoming calculations. If you do not wish to print in Color, please use Pure Black and White as your print setting. I apologize in advance for the small font. However, it is important to see the Financial Statement to understand where the data to preform the calculations is coming from.
