Learn how to “get behind” the numbers and recognize “red flags” during this highly acclaimed forensic accounting seminar. To avoid future losses, analysts must understand how financial reporting options affect income, assets, cash-flow forecasts, financial ratios, and trends—and distinguish between accounting rules and underlying economic realities.
This advanced, sequential two-part program focuses on pragmatic implications of corporate disclosures (and non-disclosures). It uses critical analyses of financial reporting numbers and comprehensive lending and equity valuation case analyses as a basis for improved risk assessment and cash-flow forecasting.
Part I incorporates the latest financial reporting developments and includes coverage of middle-market firms, with classes stressing earnings sustainability and its linkage to future cash flows. Part II applies the methodology to new situations and economic circumstances.
The two parts are sequential. You must complete Part I before enrolling in Part II. You will benefit from taking both parts consecutively.
