FIN 451 - Financial Statement Analysis

Credits 3
Financial Statement Analysis focuses on the student as a financial analyst/accountant/money manager. Students learn to 1) make the numbers tell what they need to know in decision making and give them information they can act on, 2) examine how financial statements can be manipulated to control the perceptions of investors and creditors and 3) gain knowledge to avoid such manipulation and to offer a balanced treatment of the main types of financial statements as mirrored in the real world.
