ABSTRACT: The paper refers to traditional methods of appreciating the financial equilibrium
of the agricultural company, methods based on the study of the company’s financial
statements. As far as financial equilibrium is concerned, we consider that there’s no specific
indicator to be analyzed in order to appreciate financial equilibrium due to different
perception the stakeholders have on the enterprise equilibrium. In real life we often see the
same indicator calculated differently according to the objective pursued by the analyst. This
paper shows the calculation method of the static financial equilibrium indicators, the
evolution and the factors leading to the alteration of these indicators, their financial
management. It also determines financial equilibrium by financing rates method and assesses
financial equilibrium using profitableness rates for agricultural holding companies. It
concludes with the specific factors that affect the financial equilibrium in agricultural
holdings.
