Please help me develop a flexible financial statement package using Excel that includes:
- a data entry sheet (should include the information above)
- a trial balance (link to the data entry sheet),
- a single-step income statement,
- a multi-step income statement,
- a statement of retained earnings,
- a classified balance sheet, and
- a post-close trial balance (a trial balance with only accounts not "closed")
Each statement must be on one sheet in the file and this file should allow the financial statements to be prepared quickly by entering account balances in the appropriate cells on the first sheet of the file (book) - data entry sheet.
Include percentages in the Income Statement (vertical analysis) i.e., gross profit percentage, % of selling expenses to sales, etc. (common sizing and vertical analysis are basically the same analysis techniques - every number in the multi-step income statement is divided by sales).
