telling a story of a 9-year old boy who set up a lemonade stand and does its finances on his
own.

company’s income and expenditures. It also shows
whether a company is making profit or loss for a given
period .

has paid out dividends to its shareholders

left to the company management.

because it may prefer to use the retained earnings to finance expansion activities.
