Overview
Building on the basics of financial accounting covered in the one day finance for finance managers workshop, this additional day introduces the basics of management accounting. Participants are taken through a range of key ways to apply their financial knowledge in day to day business decisions: - ratio analysis, budgeting, variance reporting, preparing business cases and cash flow management. As every business decision ultimately has a financial impact, everyone needs support to consider the financial impact of their decisions. When everyone is making better financial decisions across the organisation the financial health of the whole business improves dramatically.
