Course Objectives 


The primary aim of Financial statement analysis is to provide students with an introduction to the process and function of financial reporting. Whilst a large proportion of the course is aimed at understanding financial statements as a process, taking a preparers‟ perspective, we will also seek to develop an understanding of the importance of the role of financial statements in today‟s society.
