Introduction to Finance and Accounting (26PI18FIN)

This is a summary of the first finance and accounting course of the international business course at Fontys. Various topics are discussed, such as: financial statement, time value of money, equity financing, debt financing, and ratio analysis.

This short document covers those topics of the financial statements that many students do wrong. I tried really hard to provide easy-to-understand explanations. In the end, a thorough step to step guide is given on how to calculate each post of the closing balance sheet. This document only covers the concepts of chapter 1 in the book.

Chapter 1-3-4-5-6 of Accounting & Finance by Ewoud Jansen Includes the subjects Financial Statements, Time Value of Money, Equity Financing, Debt Financing and Ratio Analysis One part in the summary is not 100% readable so I put it here for you A = Annuity P = Perpetuity S = Sum (single amount) R = Discount Rate (expressed in %, 6% = 0.06) N = Number of periods G = growth rate (expressed in %) PV = Present Value FV = Future Value
