Construction Company Financial Statements in Excel

Step 1 – Enter Values for Current and Non-current Assets

A balance sheet has three parts: records of assets, liabilities, and stakeholders’ equity.

  • We are taking two data points for two years.
  • The sheets can also be prepared for one entry. Either way, you can add all the assets in a separate category or in one, depending on how you want to present it.
  • We have added cash, certificate of deposit, accounts receivable, inventory, and prepaid expenses as the current assets.
  • We also added net property and equipment as the non-current asset.
  • Our asset chart of the balance sheet will look like this.

Step 5 – Record the Stakeholder’s Equity

Another portion of the balance sheet is the stakeholder’s equity. Generally, a balance sheet is balanced by the liabilities and stakeholders’ equity sum and assets. This portion can also include various sub-portions, but we have included only one section for demonstration.

You can document all the different parts if you have many sub-parts and add them to find the final stockholder’s equity too.


Step 6 – Calculate Total Liabilities and Equity

  • Select cell C22 and insert the following formula.

=SUM(C20:C21)
