Now, financial reports are used by a company's management to measure profitability (or lack of it), optimize operations and guide the company, by banks and other lenders to gauge the company's financial health, and by institutional or individual investors interested in purchasing stock. Unless you're financially savvy, annual reports with all those figures, frustrating footnotes, and fine print are boring and intimidating. However, once you have a fundamental knowledge of finance and its basic terminology, you can find the juicy parts. "Reading Financial Reports For Dummies" by Lita Epstein, a teacher of online financial courses and author of "Trading for Dummies," gets you up to speed so you can: Go past the prose that can maximize the positive and minimize the negative and get information in dollars and centsGet an overview from the big three--the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flowsUnderstand the lingo and read between the linesCalculate basics like PE, Dividend Payout Ratio, ROS, ROA, ROE, Operating Margin, and Net Margin It pays for investors to be somewhat skeptical instead of gullible. Pressured to please Wall Street, companies are sometimes tempted to use "creative" accounting. You'll discover how to: Detect red flags (that, unfortunately, aren't emphasized in red) such as lawsuits, changes in accounting methods, and obligations to retirees and future retireesUnderstand the different reporting requirements for public companies and private companies with various types of business structuresAnalyze a company's cash flow, a prime indicator of its financial healthScrutinize deals such as mergers, acquisitions, liquidations and other major changes in key assets Organized so you can start where you're comfortable and proceed at your own pace, "Reading Financial Reports for Dummies" helps managers prepare annual reports and use financial reporting to budget more efficiently and helps investors base their decisions on knowledge instead of hype. Whether you're in business or in the stock market, knowledge is always an asset.Hide synopsis
