NAIL FINANCIAL MODELING

Accounting meets
Financial Modeling

Tieing together accounting can get tricky. Get rock solid on the
concepts and translate that to best practice financial modeling.

 

Thanks so much for your interest in Depreciation, Tax & Financial Statements

  • Do you get mixed up in accounting concepts and trying to figure out debits and credits?
  • Do you look at the accounting part of a model and view it as “annoying” because it doesn’t affect much?
  • Do cashflows make intuitive sense to you, but not so much a P&L and a Balance Sheet?

I created this course to bridge the gap between “accounting theory” that many of us learned at some point in our lives (or maybe not!)... and real world implementation.

This course kicks off from where the Blueprint course ends, but is agnostic to Corporate Finance, Project Finance or Startups… the concepts and implementation are common to all of these areas.
