WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.300 --> 00:00:03.900 Hello now we are ready to create the corporation 2 00:00:03.900 --> 00:00:06.400 in August so that we can start the 3 00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:07.400 activity in September. 4 00:00:08.200 --> 00:00:12.100 We decided to select the joint stock cooperation 5 00:00:11.100 --> 00:00:15.100 as a legal environment, which will 6 00:00:14.100 --> 00:00:17.700 allow us to grow and open 7 00:00:17.700 --> 00:00:20.400 the capital a little bit later. So far. 8 00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:24.000 The initial capital is $10,000. We create 9 00:00:23.500 --> 00:00:26.400 1,000 shares the power 10 00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:29.500 value per share is $10. No problem. Now, 11 00:00:29.500 --> 00:00:31.300 what is very important to understand? 12 00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:36.300 Is that each and every share is an ownership, right? 13 00:00:35.300 --> 00:00:38.500 The shareholders are the 14 00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:41.600 co-owners of the company now when 15 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.800 you have an ownership, right, you have all the 16 00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:47.700 rights which are associated with this ownership. 17 00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:51.300 You have a right on the value of the company because you 18 00:00:51.300 --> 00:00:54.800 are a co-owner. You have a right on the profits 19 00:00:54.800 --> 00:00:57.400 which are generated by the company. And 20 00:00:57.400 --> 00:01:00.300 then you have a dividend right and you have the right 21 00:01:00.300 --> 00:01:03.300 to be informed of what is happening in 22 00:01:03.300 --> 00:01:06.300 the company. Of course, there are limitations because of 23 00:01:06.300 --> 00:01:09.900 confidentiality, but it's information right is absolutely different. 24 00:01:11.100 --> 00:01:14.300 To start with I keep 100% of the shares. 25 00:01:14.300 --> 00:01:16.900 I am the only and unique owner. 26 00:01:17.800 --> 00:01:20.200 Now the question is why this figure of 27 00:01:20.500 --> 00:01:24.300 $10,000? Well, it's about business creation. 28 00:01:23.300 --> 00:01:26.700 So that will be some risk and 29 00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:29.300 fluctuations. I am a cautious person. I want 30 00:01:29.300 --> 00:01:32.200 to have a kind of financial buffer and maybe I 31 00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:35.800 will need these funds to finance my growth so initially, 32 00:01:35.800 --> 00:01:38.500 what do I do? I simply write a check 33 00:01:38.500 --> 00:01:41.400 of 10,000 which I put in 34 00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.400 the bank account of the company and that's 35 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:45.400 it for the creation. 36 00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:49.900 Now the opening balancing the first balance 37 00:01:49.900 --> 00:01:52.900 sheet of the life of the company asses where 38 00:01:52.900 --> 00:01:55.800 the company stands at the very beginning and 39 00:01:55.800 --> 00:01:58.500 tries to give an answer to two question. How much 40 00:01:58.500 --> 00:02:01.900 did I invest as a shareholder owner 41 00:02:01.900 --> 00:02:04.900 of a company? And what is my current cash 42 00:02:04.900 --> 00:02:05.600 situation? 43 00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:09.100 You will have these two questions at the end of 44 00:02:09.100 --> 00:02:12.600 each and every month during this first 45 00:02:12.600 --> 00:02:15.200 module assets is what is 46 00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:18.600 owned by the company and what is owned by the company is it's 47 00:02:18.600 --> 00:02:22.200 bank account with cash 10,000 Equity is 48 00:02:21.200 --> 00:02:24.100 what I invested. I invested in 49 00:02:24.100 --> 00:02:28.000 capital 10,000 and this is my initial opening 50 00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:28.800 balance sheet. 51 00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.800 In terms of knowledge. The first observation is 52 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.800 at the balance sheet simply balances, which 53 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.200 is not a surprise. It's a very 54 00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:41.400 mechanical process. It starts very simply 55 00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:44.600 and you will understand that when the balance it becomes 56 00:02:44.600 --> 00:02:48.600 very complex. It will still mechanically balance. 57 00:02:49.600 --> 00:02:52.800 In terms of terminology the assets is 58 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.400 exactly all the items, which are 59 00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:57.000 owned by the company. 60 00:02:57.900 --> 00:03:00.100 And the equity is what has been 61 00:03:00.100 --> 00:03:03.600 invested by the shareholders liabilities will 62 00:03:03.600 --> 00:03:06.000 come quite soon and it is 63 00:03:06.700 --> 00:03:10.200 what is owed to other external stakeholders. 64 00:03:11.300 --> 00:03:14.100 But you understand that in this terminology, you have 65 00:03:14.100 --> 00:03:18.000 a kind of legal perspective first. Accounting 66 00:03:17.200 --> 00:03:21.200 is first a legal obligation. And 67 00:03:20.200 --> 00:03:23.400 for the lawyers a question is what 68 00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:26.100 happens if you terminate the activity of the 69 00:03:26.100 --> 00:03:29.600 company your liquid at the company simply you 70 00:03:29.600 --> 00:03:32.700 sell the assets then you redeem your 71 00:03:32.700 --> 00:03:35.300 repair is a liabilities and what is 72 00:03:35.300 --> 00:03:38.900 left is located to the equity owners. 73 00:03:38.900 --> 00:03:41.700 That's the legal perspective for US finals 74 00:03:41.700 --> 00:03:44.700 people. Of course, the legal perspective is important, but we 75 00:03:44.700 --> 00:03:47.400 want to complement that by something which is in our 76 00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:50.500 opinion much more important. The financial 77 00:03:50.500 --> 00:03:53.300 perspective is where the Monet comes from the 78 00:03:53.300 --> 00:03:57.000 sources of on the origin of the financing and 79 00:03:56.600 --> 00:03:59.400 what we bought what we 80 00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:02.600 invested in the activity the users of 81 00:04:02.600 --> 00:04:05.400 phones. So for US finals people, it's about 82 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:07.700 sources and users of phones. 83 00:04:08.500 --> 00:04:11.300 The company's now ready to operate. We have a 84 00:04:11.300 --> 00:04:14.800 legal entity. We have created a company. We have identified 85 00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:17.500 market and a supplier. We are ready 86 00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:20.000 to generate our first sales in September.
Hello now we are ready to create the corporation in August so that we can start the activity in September.
We decided to select the joint stock cooperation as a legal environment, which will allow us to grow and open the capital a little bit later.
So far.
The initial capital is $10,000.
We create 1,000 shares the power value per share is $10.
No problem.
Now, what is very important to understand? Is that each and every share is an ownership, right? The shareholders are the co-owners of the company now when you have an ownership, right, you have all the rights which are associated with this ownership.
You have a right on the value of the company because you are a co-owner.
You have a right on the profits which are generated by the company.
And then you have a dividend right and you have the right to be informed of what is happening in the company.
Of course, there are limitations because of confidentiality, but it's information right is absolutely different.
To start with I keep 100% of the shares.
I am the only and unique owner.
Now the question is why this figure of $10,000? Well, it's about business creation.
So that will be some risk and fluctuations.
I am a cautious person.
I want to have a kind of financial buffer and maybe I will need these funds to finance my growth so initially, what do I do? I simply write a check of 10,000 which I put in the bank account of the company and that's it for the creation.
Now the opening balancing the first balance sheet of the life of the company asses where the company stands at the very beginning and tries to give an answer to two question.
How much did I invest as a shareholder owner of a company? And what is my current cash situation? You will have these two questions at the end of each and every month during this first module assets is what is owned by the company and what is owned by the company is it's bank account with cash 10,000 Equity is what I invested.
I invested in capital 10,000 and this is my initial opening balance sheet.
In terms of knowledge.
The first observation is at the balance sheet simply balances, which is not a surprise.
It's a very mechanical process.
It starts very simply and you will understand that when the balance it becomes very complex.
It will still mechanically balance.
In terms of terminology the assets is exactly all the items, which are owned by the company.
And the equity is what has been invested by the shareholders liabilities will come quite soon and it is what is owed to other external stakeholders.
But you understand that in this terminology, you have a kind of legal perspective first.
Accounting is first a legal obligation.
And for the lawyers a question is what happens if you terminate the activity of the company your liquid at the company simply you sell the assets then you redeem your repair is a liabilities and what is left is located to the equity owners.
That's the legal perspective for US finals people.
Of course, the legal perspective is important, but we want to complement that by something which is in our opinion much more important.
The financial perspective is where the Monet comes from the sources of on the origin of the financing and what we bought what we invested in the activity the users of phones.
So for US finals people, it's about sources and users of phones.
The company's now ready to operate.
We have a legal entity.
We have created a company.
We have identified market and a supplier.
We are ready to generate our first sales in September.
