Financial and Managerial Accounting
- agree or disagree with post The Stockholders' Equity section of a corporate balance sheet fundamentally differs from that of a single-owner business due to the inherent structure of a corporation versus a sole proprietorship. In a single-owner business, you'll usually see a single "Owner's Equity" account, which reflects the owner's investment, withdrawals, and accumulated profits or losses. Conversely, a corporation's Stockholders' Equity is more intricate, reflecting the contributions of multiple owners (stockholders) and the legal framework governing corporate capital. It's divided into contributed capital, which includes common and preferred stock, and retained earnings, which represents accumulated profits not yet distributed as dividends. Additionally, corporations may have accounts like "Additional Paid-in Capital" to capture amounts received above the par value of stock, and "Treasury Stock" to account for shares repurchased by the company.
