A profit and loss account reports the results of activity over a period of time, usually one year. A balance sheet reports the situation (assets, liabilities and equity) at a point in time. The Profit and Loss Statement reports (Revenue - Expenses) Net Income (Net Profit) and it accumulates throughout one fiscal (business) year and is restarted from zero at the end of the year. The Balance Sheet reports the value of the entity (person or business). Assets = Liabilities + Equity. Its accounts start from zero at the beginning and continue to accumulate until the business closes. For more information check the related link.
