Description
In this course, we provide an in-depth examination of terms used in corporate financial statements, and how you can use these to both interpret findings, and detect trends.

We define return on equity (ROE), and discuss to what extent it should be considered in the analysis, followed by similarly comprehensive discussions on earnings per share (EPS), price/earnings multiple, types of financial yield, and activity and profitability ratios.

For each of these topics, we explain calculations, as well as how to interpret the resulting figure, and what importance to place on it.
