Definitely B, that's the loans outstanding at year end.

I feel like the loans repaid during the year wouldn't be on the statement, so it must be the outstanding amount.

I'm a bit confused; I thought the statement of financial position only included assets and liabilities, but I guess loans outstanding fits that.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I believe it's definitely not the interest charged or paid, but the outstanding loans.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the options. Are they all related to loans? I'll need to re-read the question and think about which one of these would be a balance sheet item.

Okay, I've got this. The balance sheet shows the financial position of a company at a specific point in time, so the amount of loans outstanding at the end of the year would be the correct answer. I'm confident in that.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to be related to loans, but I'm not sure which one would be on the balance sheet specifically. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This looks like a straightforward financial statement question. I'll focus on identifying the item that appears on the statement of financial position, which is the balance sheet.

B) The amount of loans outstanding at the year end. Yep, that's the one. The statement of financial position is all about the current state of the business, not the flows during the year.

A) The amount of interest charged on loans during the year. That's an income statement item, not a balance sheet one.

B) The amount of loans outstanding at the year end. This seems like the most logical answer since the statement of financial position would show the current loan balances.
