Tell him he’s right. He doesn’t need you. Although then, you kind of won’t get that A on the assignment.

Financial Statements are more than just finding out how much money a company has made or loss.

External Users (other than him) who might need it are
- lenders (like a bank, and they can be a real hard @$$ when it comes to giving out loans)
- people who might want to invest in the company
- other owner’s/shareholders
- to satisfy laws (if it’s a public company trading on a stock exchange)

A worksheet approach to answer that question? I don't think so. I guess you could if you really wanted to.

I would answer this question in more of a word-based approach.
