2 CPE This course focuss on the GAAP presentation of the major financial statements. We highlight the concepts in ASC 205 regarding presentation of those financial statements.
Per generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), companies are responsible for providing reports on their cash flows, profit-making operations and overall financial conditions. There are three major financial statements required under GAAP:
- Income statement
- Balance sheet
- Cash flow statement
Presentation of the Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP is governed by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 205. The Standard defines the following as a full set of financial statements:
- Financial position at the end of the period
- Earnings, which may be shown in a separate statement or within one continuous statement of comprehensive income
- Comprehensive income for the period in one statement or two consecutive statements
- Cash flows during the period
- Investments by and distributions to the owners during the period.
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) are a set of rules that encompass the details, complexities, and legalities of business and corporate accounting. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) uses GAAP as the foundation for its comprehensive set of approved accounting methods and practices.
Note: Information within this course comes from readily available public domain documents and is utilized by the trainer as a supplement for relaying the course content.
Learning Objectives
- Explore generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the presentation of balance sheet assets, liabilities and equity.
- Explore GAAP principles and the presentation of income through revenue, expenses and net income/loss
- Explore GAAP principles and the presentation of the statement of comprehensive income.
- Explore GAAP principles and the presentation of the cash flow statement including sections of operating activities, investing activities and financing activities.
- Identify the aspects of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 205 for presentation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

Outstanding overview of GAAP requirements for financial statement presentation. Lynn does a wonderful job keeping the course flowing with an efficient use of time presenting quality information. Check out her ASC 606 certification program and courses for guidance on revenue recognition related to contracts with customers!

Lynn,
You are doing a phenomenal job as I have achieved another 100% score. That said, I do FS's every month so perhaps I know some of this stuff. I did learn some new things here like the ASC 205 and the nomenclature of "classified" balance sheet.
Thanks again for another outstanding course.
Best,
Larry

This is a great refresher course for financial statements. Some of the components in financial statements are not completed by all companies. Currently, I don't deal with OCI and it was a great reminder of what is in that section of the FS.

Overall a good course. In Income Statement portion would be great to have some better visuals, like tablets, flow charts. The material is good but it would be easier to digest if there would be an example or screenshot, vs wordy description.
