Step-3: Summarizing NGO Balance Sheet Format in Workbook

After entering all the data, you now need a summary of the sheet so that you can easily understand the expenses of your company. For that purpose, we are going to apply some formulas. Let’s have a look at the following description.

  • First, we generate a formula to calculate the Debt Ratio. It is the ratio between the Total Liabilities and Total Assets.

=IF(Assets!C14=0,"",(Liabilities!C12+Liabilities!F9)/Assets!C14)

The formula uses the IF function to check whether the Total Asset is 0, if the condition is true it will return nothing. Otherwise, it will return the ratio (Current Liabilities + Long Term Liabilities)/Total Assets which is the Debt Ratio.

  • Next, we will develop a formula to determine the Current Ratio. It refers to the ratio of Current Assets and Current Liabilities. This ratio also represents the ability of a company to pay its short time dues within a year.

=IF(Liabilities!C12=0,"",Assets!C11/Liabilities!C12)

  • The following formula will return the Debt to Equity Ratio which is the ratio between Total Liabilities and Owner’s Equity.

=IF(Liabilities!F15=0,"",(Liabilities!C12+Liabilities!F9)/Liabilities!F15)

  • Thereafter, we will use a formula to calculate the Assets to Equity Ratio. This is the ratio between Total Assets and Owner’s Equity.

=IF(Liabilities!F15=0,"",Assets!C14/Liabilities!F15)
