About the course
The course develops your capacity to skillfully perform analysis of companies using financial statements. The course gives an overview of financial reporting standards, relates them to their application by companies and considers necessary adjustments. Accounting ratios and how they form a coherent system related to the financial statements and strategy considerations are then covered, parts that subsequently are applied in the financial analysis of companies.
For exchange students: As this course is part of a Master's track, it cannot be taken on its own but must be taken with other course/s in the same track during the same semester.
