Analysing Financial Statements for Non-Specialists Summary

Analysing Financial Statements for Non-Specialists by Jim O'Hare (University of Leicester, UK)

All business organizations produce financial statements and the information communicated (or hidden) on these has never been more important to understand following the global financial crisis.

Analyzing Financial Statements for Non-Specialists introduces this topic without assuming prior training and study in accounting - as such it is perfect for students and managers who need to build their understanding of financial statements without taking an entire degree in accounting.

With features such as end of chapter questions, topics for further discussion and brimming with real-world examples, this concise new textbook provides a comprehensive resource that will be welcomed by lecturers and instructors charged with delivering classes on financial statements.
