The financial statement that shows financial position at a point in time is the ________.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks which financial statement shows financial position at a specific point in time.
Option 1: 'statement of change in financial position' is not the standard term used to describe a statement that presents financial position at a moment; it does not represent position at a single date.
Option 2: 'income statement' reports the company’s performance over a period (revenue minus expenses), not its position at a specific date, so it is not about financial position at a point in time.
Option 3: 'balance sheet' records assets, liabilities, and equity as of a particular date, thereby illustrating the financial position at that moment in time.
Option 4: 'P&L statement' is another name sometimes used for the income statement, which covers a period rather than a single point in time, so it does not depict financial position at a specific date.
In summary, the option describing the financial position at a point in time aligns with the balance sheet, while the others refer to performance over a period or use nonstandard terminology.
