Webinar #5: Performing Financial Ratios

Financial ratios look at a company's balance sheet and income statement to determine profitability and liquidity by comparing financial statements. In this webinar, recorded on January 28, 2020, for the Executive MBA students for the University of Georgia Terry College of Business, we will look at financial ratios for the balance sheet, ratios for the income statement, and finally ratios that use both the income statement and balance sheet.

Financial ratios based on the Balance Sheet:

  • Working capital
  • Current ratio
  • Quick ratio
  • Debt ratio
  • Debt-to-Equity ratio

Financial Ratios based on the Income Statement:

  • Gross margin
  • Operating margin
  • Profit margin

Webinar #4: Analyzing Financial Statements

We analyze the Income Statements using vertical and horizontal analysis. We start off this webinar by using T Accounts to record transactions and then create an Income Statement and Balance Sheet. 
 
Using T accounts and creating the income statement and balance sheet is very useful for new accounting students or anyone interested in learning how financial statements work and where the difference accounts go on each statement.
 
We look at Microsoft's financials so we can see some real financial statements during this process. All the files used in this video are available on my webpage I created for the University of Georgia Terry College of Business.
