    Common stock were reported?
    Is common stock reported on the income statement. I am thinking no, because it is an asset? And what about cash? I am thinking it will not be on income statement because it is also an asset. On an income statement isn't it just expenses and revenue?Please help asap. Thanks! :)

    Cash and Common Stock is listed on the Balance Sheet. Cash is an Asset, Common Stock is an Owner's Equity Account. The Balance Sheet lists only permanent Accounts.
