Companies expect managers to use financial data to allocate resources and run their departments. But many managers can’t read a balance sheet, wouldn’t recognize a liquidity ratio, and don’t know how to calculate return on investment. Worse, they don’t have any idea where the numbers come from or how reliable they really are.

In Financial Intelligence, Karen Berman and Joe Knight teach the basics of finance—but with a twist. Financial reporting, they argue, is as much art as science. Since nobody can quantify everything, accountants always rely on estimates, assumptions, and judgment calls. Savvy managers need to know how those sources of possible bias can affect the financials—and they need to know that sometimes the numbers can be challenged.

While providing the foundation for a deep understanding of the financial side of business, the book also arms managers with practical strategies for improving their companies’ performance—strategies such as “managing the balance sheet” that are well understood by financial professionals but rarely shared with their nonfinancial colleagues.

Accessible, jargon-free, and filled with entertaining stories of real companies, Financial Intelligence will help nonfinancial managers be smarter and more confident in their everyday work.

这本书和《财务是个真实谎言》，阅读顺序我弄反了，应该是先看这本，再看《谎言》。 前者是手把手教你如何看报表，后者是在理解报表基础上对财务更深刻点儿的认识。这是哈佛与商务合作的经管系列书籍之一。但并不是为财务的专业人员写的，而是非专业的管理和其他各级员工。 作...  

这本书不是accounting for dummies，所以看了以后不会走上会计的专业道路。但是这本书尤其适合想要知道自己所效忠的公司的内部环境和未来潜力的螺丝钉。当然如果企业的创始人或者管理者们仍旧对财务知识完全不懂的话，作者也推荐看，不过这种人真的能够胜任CXO吗。。。诚如作者...  

在同一个专业精通很重要，但是在不同的领域灵活切换也是非常重要的。 1. 投资中的成本分摊影响到某一时段的利润，你会按多少折旧年限来分摊？你是在设计阶段摊多些还是制造阶段摊多些？这些都导致利润的变动，从而带来错误的决策支持信息； 2.如果规则上，商誉不摊销，是否会...
