Examining the Balance Sheet

Description

A balance sheet is a snapshot of a company's finances on a single date — what it owns, what it owes, and what's left for the owners. This course teaches you to read one with confidence.

What this course covers:

• The three components: assets, liabilities, and owner's or shareholder's equity
• How the balance sheet reveals a company's net worth
• Reading the report to understand an organization's financial position
• Why balance-sheet literacy helps with planning and monitoring

A good fit for managers, owners, and employees who want to understand what a balance sheet is really telling them.
