Introduction to Financial Analysis
About Course
Understanding a company’s numbers is not reserved for accountants. Financial analysis is a language: once you know the basics, you can read a company’s health as easily as a weather forecast.
This course starts from scratch: you will discover the balance sheet, the income statement, the key figures and the essential ratios. By the end, you will be able to interpret financial statements, spot signs of strength and weakness, and make informed decisions with common sense.
