    Health Care and Financial Statement

    There are three types of financial statement analysis; for example, (1) Horizontal Analysis, (2) Vertical Analysis, and (3) Ratio Analysis. First, the horizontal analysis is also known as trend analysis, which views the behavior of an individual financial statement items over several accounting, which may be several quarters within the same fiscal year or several different years; however, the analysis of a given item may focus on absolute dollar amount, according to Edmonds, T.P., Olds, P.R., McNair, F.M., and Tsay. (2010). Moreover, “percentage analysis sidesteps the materiality problems of comparing different size companies by measuring changes in percentages rather than absolute amount; in other words, each change is converted to a percentage of the base year.”( Edmonds et al 2010, p. 326). Second, as Edmonds et al stated, vertical analysis of an income statement also known as a common size statement, involves converting each income statement component to a percentage of sales; however, vertical analysis suggest examining only one period, which is useful to compare common size income statements for several years; which also involves converting each balance sheet component to a percentage of total assets. Third, “ratio analysis involves the study of various relationships between different items reported in a set of financial statement; for example, net earnings reported on the income statement may be compared to total assets reported on the balance sheet; however, analysis calculate many different ratios for a wide variety of purposes.” (Edmonds, et al, 2010).…

    Examining Financial Statements - Landry's Restaurants

    Financial statement users around the globe use financial statements to evaluate the performance of companies (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006). In order to locate a company’s reported assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues, statement users rely on four types of financial statements. The four financial statements include: Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Statement of Retained Earnings, and Statement of Cash Flows (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006, p. 6). Each of these reports provides different information to the financial statement user. The Balance Sheet reports at a point in time: a company’s assets (what it owns), liabilities (what it owes) and stockholder’s equity (what is left over for the owners) (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006, p.7). The Income Statement shows whether a business made a profit (net income) during a specific period of time (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006, p. 10). The Statement of Retained Earnings illustrates what portions of the company’s earnings was paid to stockholders and retained by the company for future operations (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006, p.12). Finally, the Statement of Cash Flows reports summarizes how a business’ “operating, investing, and financial activities caused its cash balance to change over a particular range of time” (Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, 2006, p.13).…

    Accounting is the language of business. As such, accountants collect and communicate economic information about business enterprises or other entities to a wide variety of persons. To be useful, financial statements must be clearly understandable and comparable so that users may compare the performance of one business with the performance of the same business for a prior period or with the performance of another similar business. Therefore, all general purpose financial statements should be prepared in accordance with the same uniform guidelines. In this chapter, we will examine the history and sources of current financial…
