3. Annual statement of account

German: Jahresabschluß
The balance sheet and the profit and loss account together form the annual statement of accounts. Under commercial law, the businessman, at the beginning of his commercial enterprise and at the end of each trading year, is required to prepare a statement of accounts (opening balance, balance sheet) showing the relationship between his assets and liabilities. The profit and loss account, as the final bookkeeping account, summarises the expenditure and income for the trading year and indicates the annual profit or annual loss. The legal representatives of the corporate enterprise are required to attach an annex to the annual statement of accounts, contain explanatory notes regarding the balance sheet and the profit and loss calculation.
