      Provisional financial statements are prepared on the basis of past data i.e. for the period which is already over. For example, the bank requested for Q4 financial statement but there were still 15 days left for the quarter to get over. In this case, the business/company will prepare a provisional financial statement.

      Provisional financial statements can be requested by banks, investors, and large vendors while making decisions regarding business and want current financial statements which can be obtained easily.

      It is prepared with the help of past actual figures on a particular date or before the end of a financial statement. The main purpose of preparing is to show the company’s financial position on a particular date. Items of the provisional financial statement are assets, liabilities, and equity/capital.
