Accounting is the language of business. Many important financial decisions are based on a business’s financial statements. Whether performing an investigation of alleged fraud involving financial statements, due diligence of a company before acquiring or investing in the company or granting credit, the financial statements should undergo professional analysis. Further, users of the financial statements must understand the motives of those who prepared the financial statements so they can target their analysis.
