Financial Statements: A Step-by-Step Guide

Thomas Ittelson's "Financial Statements: A Step-by-Step Guide" offers a comprehensive and accessible introduction to understanding and creating financial reports, requiring no prior accounting knowledge. The book explains the purpose and structure of the income statement (profit or loss over a period), the cash flow statement (cash inflows and outflows), and the balance sheet (assets, liabilities, and equity at a specific point in time). Through clear explanations and a hypothetical company example, AppleSeed Enterprises, the text covers fundamental accounting principles, the construction and analysis of these key statements, and also explores topics like nonprofit accounting, financial ratios, alternative accounting policies, and potential for fraud. Furthermore, the guide extends into business expansion strategies, risk management, the time value of money, and making informed investment decisions.Full podcast episode available here: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMvxvfJimu-1KknFC-zsve7fhZgSY9VJR // Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/43S8mFi7frIuMtqd0VST7O // Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/busy-accountant-the-best-books-reviews/id1807058693 — Follow us for more insights & updates: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/busy_proffesional/ — TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@busyprofessional
