This is classed as an ASSET Where **you owe** money to people or organistions for example if you hire a venue for an event in one year but do not make the payment until the next (where for payment in December but don't make the payment until January).

## **Notes**
Your income and expenditure statement (known as the profit & loss account in the commercial world) shows your financial performance in the current financial year only.
Charities make a surplus or defict not a profit or loss. It means the same thing, it is just different terminology. The brackets on (deficit) just mean that it a minus figure
This is your reserves brought forward from the end of 2021
The balance sheet shows how you are holding your reserves. For most branches, it will be just the money in your bank account and petty cash but some branches will have other assets and even some outstanding liabilities at the end of the financial year. It is cumulative, that is it shows your underlying financial health, not annual performance
