Financial Statements

Financial Statements are structured reports that provide an overview of a business's financial activities, performance, and financial position. Coursera's Financial Statements catalogue teaches you about the three key financial statements - the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. You'll learn to interpret and analyze these statements to evaluate a company's profitability, liquidity, and solvency. Further, you will understand how financial ratios are derived from these statements and used in decision making, investment evaluation, and detecting financial irregularities. This skill is essential for finance professionals, business analysts, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in understanding the financial health of a business.
