Key Words and Concepts Financial Planning is the
process of developing and implementing a
coordinated series of financial plans to achieve
financial success. Values are fundamental beliefs
about what is important, desirable, and
worthwhile. Financial Goals are the specific
long- and short-term objectives to be attained
through financial planning and management
efforts. Financial Strategies are preestablished
plans of action to be implemented in specific
situations. Financial Statements are compilations
of personal financial data designed to
communicate information on money matters. Balance
Sheet (or net worth statement) describes an
individuals or familys financial condition on a
specified date. Income and Expense (or cash flow)
Statement lists and summarizes income and expense
transactions that have taken place over a
specific period of time. Assets include
everything you own that has monetary
value. Liabilities are your debt. Net Worth is
the dollar amount left when what is owed is
subtracted from the dollar value of what is
owned. Everything should be calculated at fair
market value.
27
Key Words and Concepts (Cont.) Fair Market Value
is the amount a buyer would pay a willing
seller. Monetary Assets (or liquid assets)
include cash and near-cash items that can be
readily converted to cash. Tangible (or use)
Assets are physical assets that have fairly long
lifespans and could be sold to raise cash but
whose primary purpose is to provide maintenance
of ones lifestyle. Investment assets (also known
as capital assets) include tangible and
intangible items acquired for the monetary
benefits they provide. Diversification of
investments means the investor puts money in a
variety of investments. Short-term (or current)
Liability is an obligation that will be paid off
within one year. Long-term Liability is an
obligation that will be paid off in more than one
year. Insolvent means net worth is
negative. Fixed Expenses are usually paid in the
same amount during each time period. Variable
Expenses are expenditures over which and
individual has considerable control. Net
Gain/Loss shows the amount of money left after
you subtract expenses from income. Financial
Ratios are objective numerical calculations
designed to simplify making judgmental
assessments of financial strength over time.

speed and ease with which an asset can be
converted into cash. Financial Ratios Basic

individual. A ratio of .36 or less indicates that
gross income is adequate to make debt
repayments. Investment Assets-to-Net Worth
Ratio investment assets

individual is advancing toward their financial
