Episode 14
This is the fourth, and last, episode in our Financial Basics for Authors series. In this episode, I talk about knowing what your business owns, what it owes to others, and your owner equity. This information is shown on your balance sheet.

Download a sample financial statement (both the Income Statement and Balance Sheet) to look at while I walk you through them. https://indieauthorbizguide.com/resources/
