Essential Financial Statement Analysis Skills for Lawyers.
Have you ever thought about getting an MBA? Save your time and money! In this series of programs, “Hack my MBA for Lawyers,” practicing lawyers who hold MBA’s take key concepts from the MBA curriculum that have real value for practicing lawyers, teach them to you in an engaging way and show how to apply them in your practice using real-world hypotheticals. In the process, you’ll also learn the unique language MBA’s employ - sometimes called “MBA-speak” - to help you better understand and communicate with your MBA-trained or other finance-type clients.
In the second program in the series, Zach McGee teaches the basics of financial statement analysis that will help you answer important questions such as: Is this company doing well or poorly? Is it overvalued or undervalued relative to the price set by the market? Does its financial statements contain any “red flags” that suggest it may be hiding or misrepresenting its financial condition or performance? Topics include: (i) The Big Picture: Why Do Financial Statement Analysis? (ii) Overview of Key Financial Statements: The Balance Sheet, Income Statement and Statement of Cash Flows (iii) Financial Statement Analysis Part I: Common Size and Ratio Analysis; and (iv) Financial Statement Analysis Part II: Red Flag Review.
