Description

Firms that manage their resources wisely prosper, while those that don't languish and ultimately fail. Financial statement analysis is a complex and challenging discipline, one that is both art and science. As such, Financial Statement Analysis: Content and Context teaches you how to interpret financial disclosures and place them in their appropriate context. This text takes a very broad view of financial statement analysis. A careful reading of this text improves investing, lending, and performance assessment decisions. This orientation differs from many traditional textbooks in this area that focus on only stock investment decisions.

This second edition improves on the content of the first edition. End of chapter assignments now include discussion questions and exercises to facilitate review of the chapter material. Two new industries that resonate with today's readers have been added. The industry case assignments have been refocused to tie directly to each chapter's material.
