Participants🔸快乐10分玩法说明

This programme is designed for non-financial middle/senior managers whose work involves financial statements interpretation.

Introduction🔸快乐10分玩法说明

Highly profitable companies won’t go bankrupt; fast-growing companies won’t have to address cash flow problems; companies won’t face insolvency as long as they still own assets; companies may inject their retained earnings into investment projects. If you agree with any of the statements above, you are strongly urged to update your financial expertise as soon as possible, as these are all common misconceptions held by many executives with a non-financial background (and even by some financial professionals).

Financial statements are not only filled with information valuable to executives, but also fraught with ambiguous subtexts or even hidden pitfalls that are aimed at misleading them. To better interpret a company’s financial statements, executives need to probe into its operating patterns and business strategy and the accounting policy and procedures for financial statements preparation. This programme aims to help participants without a financial background discuss how financial statements reflect business operation in the internet age in light of external factors (e.g., economic landscape, industrial patterns, and effectiveness of monitoring and auditing), and understand and analyze a company’s financial statements based on its business model so as to assess its historical performance and make a sound decision on its future development and value creation.

Programme Objective🔸快乐10分玩法说明

This programme aims to help participants interpret, understand, and analyze a company’s financial statements based on its strategy and in light of external factors (e.g., economic landscape, industrial patterns, and effectiveness of monitoring and auditing) so as to assess its historical performance and predict its future prospects. We will adopt a user’s perspective, because most business professionals are users of financial statements, internally (e.g., managers and executives) or externally (e.g., investors and analysts), rather than preparers.

  • Communicate more effectively with their finance department
