Where would you like to start?
Each part is one year of the corporation. You can move between them at any time with the selector at the top.
The statements
Calculate
Percentages as numbers (19.0), ratios to two or three decimals, dollars without commas. More than one formula is defensible for some of these; the page will tell you which one you used.
Why the numbers moved
Decompositions, not opinions. Each is arithmetic on the statements.
Behind the ratios
Questions
What you know
The toolkit
Types of entry
The pattern book. Every entry in the case is one of these shapes; open a type to see the pattern and the entry that uses it.
Quiz practice
The statements
A different company from the entries above, as in the quiz itself. Read them and answer below.
Work out the measures
Both years. Ratios to two decimals, percentages to one, dollars as dollars.
Interpret them
No answer box on these: write your own, then open the note and see what you left out.
Read the whole thing
The measures one at a time will not do it. In six or seven sentences: what happened to this business this year, is it in better shape than it was, and what would you want to see that is not here?
Accounting help
Reference material, not case facts. Open a topic to read it.
