Explanation:

Accel's income statement is a summary of the temporary accounts, which are not carried forward in the next accounting period.  They are used to calculate the profit performance of the consulting firm.  They include the revenues and the expenses incurred for generating the revenue.

Accel's statement of retained earnings shows the difference between the net income generated over the years for a business that has been in operation for years and the payouts from the net income in form of dividends to stockholders.  For Maria Gomez's consulting business, the retained earnings statement shows what is remaining after paying dividend for the month of December to Gomez.

Accel's balance sheet is the final financial statement that is needed to be prepared to show the financial position of the firm.  It shows what the firm owns as assets and the value that the firm owes other creditors for services not paid for or not yet rendered and the equity value for the stockholder, Maria.
