Course Details:

Understanding what each element on an income statement or balance sheet means is important but limiting in terms of understanding just how well a company is performing. Especially when it comes to comparing two companies to each other or one’s own company performance year-on-year. How can the company improve? What areas are of concern and need addressing? How well has it made use of its assets, liabilities and equity to produce profit? Can it pay off its debts? Is it being too lenient on its creditors?

These are some of the many questions this course will helps learners answer. It is recommended that they have done the course “The Financial Statements” before attempting this one.

There are 5 modules:

Measuring Up - Analysing a company’s performance over time and comparing it to competitors’ performance
Liquidity - Assessing a company’s ability to pay its upcoming bills
Activity - Assessing a company’s efficiency
Profitability - Assessing a company’s ability to grow
Solvency - Assessing a company’s management of its debt financing
