Explanation:

All accounts of the current year regardless of their nature, what I mean with this is that any account could add or subtract, all that kind of operations at the end give you the total result of the current year, and every account of the respective year could be expressed as a percentage of the total assets of the respective year, for example:

Total assets year A         $1000                        Total assets year A  100%  

cash  year A                     $200                         cash  year A              20%        

equipment  year A          $600                          equipment  year A    60%

buildings    year A           $200                          buildings   year A       20%

Every account correspond to the same year of the calculation.
