The balance sheet identity states that assets equal liabilities plus

  • A.total revenue
  • B.owners' equity
  • C.net profit for the year
  • D.working capital

Answer: B

Everything the firm holds has been financed either by creditors or by the owners, so the two sides must agree by construction. A balance sheet that fails to balance contains an error rather than an interesting fact about the business.
