内容説明
A comprehensive guide to reading and understanding financial reports Financial reports provide vital information to investors, lenders, and managers.

The book features new information on the move toward separate financial and accounting reporting standards for private companies, the emergence of websites offering financial information, pending changes in the auditor's report language and what this means to investors, and requirements for XBRL tagging in reporting to the SEC, among other topics.
