DESCRIPTION
The Balance Sheet, now aptly referred to as the Statement of Financial Position, is a business report upon which many financial decisions are made. Investors, shareholders, lenders, internal management, government agencies and creditors are some of the users who all depend on what is reported on the face of the Balance Sheet. Users depend on what is reported to check the solvency and financial activity of the reporting entity, among other reasons.
The importance of correct and accurate compilation and disclosure of items that are presented on the Balance Sheet is very clear. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) lay down specific requirements that must be adhered to by compilers of not only the Balance Sheet but annual financial statements which the Balance Sheet is an integral part of. Furthermore, reported items on the Balance Sheet are used to provide SARS and CIPC with information they require regularly from South African businesses.Â
It is in view of this that we are presenting a webinar focusing on the Balance Sheet. Join Russel Ngobeni BAP(SA) as he explains everything that has to do with the Balance Sheet, from its structure, correct compilation, correct valuation of amounts as well as analysis of reported amounts to aid the giving of good advice to clients.
