Essentially the Income Statement shows how much profit (or loss) an entity generated for a certain period. For example, the income statement of XYZ Corp. for the Year Ended December 31, 2010 would list all their income (i.e. product sales, rents received, royalties received, etc.) and all the expenses incurred to generate those revenues (i.e. salaries, cost of products sold, maintenance and repairs, etc.) - the difference is the income (or loss).
The Balance Sheet, on the other hand, is a summary of all the financial transactions that the entity has been involved with since it began. For instance, say new entity were starting, and 10 people bought 100 shares each 1,000 per share. The entity (i.e. the corporation) would now have cash on one side equal to $1,000,000 and common stock outstanding equal to $1,000,000. Now if the entity used some of that money to purchase equipment, say $500,000, they would now have $500,000 cash and $500,000 in property, plant and equipment.
