Income statement is always income and expense, usually reflects the activity of the business for a given period.

Balance sheet is the balance of assets, liabilities, equity (net assets) and is a ’snapshot’ of what the company is worth at any given time.

That’s a tough question to answer since it is so general. Any specific question you have in regards to it?

Essentially, a balance sheet will simply have everything that matches on the accounting equation (assets = liabilities + owner’s equity or retained earnings). So, it has the assets, liabilities, and OE.

The income statement will have all the revenues and expenses (profits and losses). It basically has all of the operating numbers for a business, since the revenues and expenses make up a business’ operations.
