Accounting reports convey vital information about cash, profits, and financial position to the owner and key stakeholders of a business. This program explores the content and format of the three key accounting reports: the cash flow statement, the profit and loss statement, and the balance sheet. Interviews with working accountants and financial managers show how these reports are used within a business for analysis and decision making. In addition to various reporting functions, the program also introduces viewers to principles of data storage, the basics of financial spreadsheets, and some examples of accounting and bookkeeping software. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. (26 minutes)
