Commonly, financial statements consist of the BALANCE SHEET, INCOME STATEMENT, STATEMENT OF STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY and the CASH FLOW STATEMENT. Different industries and businesses have different names for some of the statements and add to, or use combination of, the forms above. The not-for-profit industry, for example, generally calls the balance sheet the STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION and the income statement the STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES.

In business and analytical circles, the document containing the auditors report, the collection of applicable statements, and the accompanying notes are collectively referred to as the financial statements.
