Balance sheet : most important farm financial management tool
Abstract
This circular shows you how to prepare a balance sheet and how to use it in making financial decisions. A balance sheet is the single most important document you use in financing your farm. The balance sheet is an essential document when borrowing money, but more importantly, it can help you determine how much progress you are making on the farm. The balance sheet also can tell you ahead of time when financial problems are likely to occur.
