Understanding Financial Statements, Goodwill, And Temporary Differences
Statement of comprehensive income
Statement of comprehensive income is one of the components of the financial statements. The two major components of this statement include net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes items like pension adjustments, unrealised gains or losses from available from sale securities, gains or losses because of foreign currency translations etc. These items do not affect the income statement directly. It is usually followed by the income statement in the financial statement. However, the company also has an option to combine the income statement and the statement of comprehensive income.

When the shares are issued, the amount is raised in various stages. First the application money is paid, after which shares are issued. After issue of shares, the company calls for the unpaid remaining amount on the shares which are call money. There are few shareholders who fail to pay such amount when called for by the company. This is called unpaid calls. There are various treatments of the unpaid calls in the company’s books (Simpson, 2012).
