English term

brought forward

English to French Bus/Financial Accounting financial statements
The owner’s capital is usually analysed into its component parts:
Capital as at the beginning of the accounting period (i.e. capital ‘brought forward’)
Add additional capital introduced during the period
Add profit earned during the period
Less drawings
Capital as at the end of the accounting period (i.e. capital ‘carried forward’)

Brought forward means ‘brought forward from the previous period’. Carried forward means ‘carried forward to the next period’. The carried forward amount at the end of one period is also the brought forward amount for the next period.
Proposed translations (French)
4 +5 reporté

Discussion

Françoise Vogel Sep 3, 2011:
to bring forward = reporter (c'est le lexique de la comptabilité)
philippe vandevivere (asker) Sep 3, 2011:
Merci FX, mais que pensez-vous de 'rapporté' au lieu de 'reporté'? Ainsi,
'reporté' = 'carried fwd'
'rapporté' = 'brought fwd'
Votre Avis ??
