Question

2. "A company's net income appears directly on the income statement and the owner's equity statement, and it is included indirectly in the company's balance sheet." Do you agree? Explain.

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, I do agree with the statement

Explanation:

The statement which is stating that the company net income  as well as the statement of the owner's equity both are included or shown indirectly in the company balance sheet . As balance sheet is that statement which tells the financial position or performance of the company at a specific time period.

Because the net income is the outcome of income statement and directly shown or stated in the income statement whereas owner's equity is the capital of the business which is shown in the balance sheet. Net income is already included in retained earnings which means shown indirectly in the balance sheet.
