General Information

Overview

Financial Statement Analysis is a capstone unit within the Bachelor of Accounting course. It supports you to integrate your learning in the course and to critically examine accounting and finance concepts relevant to the analysis of financial statements. You will apply these concepts to the analysis of real firms. The focus of the unit is on analysing financial statements to better understand and interpret the economic and business realities of firms. In particular, you will learn how to use financial statements to identify what adds value. While recognising that adding value can be viewed from the perspective of a range of different stakeholders, you will focus on the interests of equity investors.
