The E-Learning Forum is a monthly educational webinar featuring guest experts and Kingdom-class business education to enhance your life and business from a Kingdom perspective. The Forum is held every second Tuesday of the month, from 6am – 7am Pacific time.

This month’s E-Learning Forum will feature Leigh Ann Horton, who will share her knowledge on Analyzing Your Financial Statements. Leigh Ann will walk through a set of financial statements that will show how business owners use financial statements to make good decisions in their business.

Biblical Entrepreneurs are called to be good stewards over the business the Lord has entrusted to them. One of the ways to exercise good stewardship is to do regular financial reviews of the business by conducting monthly and quarterly financial analysis. Financial analysis is the process of evaluating the business finances to determine the viability or capability of the business, and make comparisons between one period to another. It is used to evaluate economic trends, set financial policy, build long-term plans, and set benchmarks.

One of the common ways to analyze financial data is to calculate ratios from the data by comparing it against those of other companies, or against the company’s own historical performance. Financial analysis is typically done using the company’s financial statements. Financial statements are a collection of reports about an organization’s financial condition at any given period.
