Join Bennett Jones and external facilitator Dr. John Friedlan for the second in our four-part Financial Statements and Financial Reporting Series.

  • What is income?
  • Accrual vs. cash accounting
  • Revenue recognition and matching
  • Capitalizing vs. expensing
  • Different measures of performance
  • Earnings management
  • Areas of flexibility in financial reporting

The seminar will have a practical focus. Examples from actual financial statements are used extensively to demonstrate the issues discussed.
