Accounting For Non Accountants

This practical workshop will improve participants' financial understanding. By the end of this course they'll be able to read a Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet, and understand the common classifications and groupings within them.

Through practical examples and exercises participants will learn:

• what double entry accounting means
• the key elements of a Profit & Loss Statement
• the important features of a Balance Sheet
• the purpose of depreciation
• the jargon used by accountants.

Each topic begins with easy examples and builds towards the more complex, as participants are guided through financial statements, their classifications and groupings, and other related issues.
