Interpretation, Analysis And Communication Of Financial Information
Übersicht
Two shops on the same street both report a profit of $45 000. One of them is a bargain and one of them is in trouble, and the profit figure alone cannot tell you which. The first may have used $180 000 of the owner's money to earn it while the second used $600 000. The first may hold enough cash to pay next month's bills while the second is a week away from being unable to pay its suppliers at all.
This is the topic that turns figures into judgements. You will learn who reads a set of accounts and what each reader is looking for, calculate the nine ratios the specification names, and use them to say something defensible about whether a business is profitable and whether it can pay its debts. You will also see why a profitable business can run out of money, and why every ratio you calculate has to be treated with a certain amount of suspicion.
