Corporate Financial Reporting

Earl Kay Stice, PhD Jim Stice, PhD

Business leaders need to read, interpret, and question financial reports. In this MBA-level resource, students learn how accountants condense a company's activity into the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows, then analyze those statements to judge financial health. They explore the judgment calls behind reported numbers, including earnings management, and work through the revenue and expenditure cycles, inventory, operating assets, investments, debt and equity financing, and accounting in a global market. Students gain respect for the complexity of accounting and a healthy skepticism about the precision of financial reports.
