Introduction to Financial Statements

Are you on the distribution list for the monthly accounts pack or financial statements in your company?

Do you receive financial statements that you don't really understand?

Would you like to improve your understanding of this information?

Being properly informed not only improves your knowledge of how your company is performing but also better prepares you to tackle any decision making you are tasked with.

This course walks you through the three primary documents you will see time and time again - the Statement of Profit or Loss (Profit & Loss account), Statement of Financial Position (Balance Sheet) and Cash Flow Statement.

This course will provide you with a greater understanding of the purpose of these statements, how to read them, how to dig deeper and analyse main figures and assess your businesses performance and which areas to focus your concentration.

All non-finance staff will benefit from a greater understanding of the financial performance of the business they work for and be able to assess that organisation's future viability.
