By Frank J. Kopczynski

An arsenal of powerful concepts, tools, and techniques for creating and analyzing all forms of prospective financial information Thanks to beefed-up demand for more prospective financial information coming from the AICPA, SEC, and IMA, an unprecedented wealth of new financial information is now available to those who know how to use it. Unfortunately, no standardized methods currently exist for analyzing this potentially useful information. How do you pull the important information from the mountain of figures now being generated? Just as importantly, how do you apply the results of your analyses to making sound investing and business decisions? Find out in Prospective Financial Statement Analysis.

This model-which employs, among other things, state-of-the-art computer modeling techniques and sensitivity analysis-allows analysts to assemble and integrate data effectively from the five key analytic phases for analysis: qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis, strategic resource analysis, sensitivity analysis, and evaluation and conclusions. CPAs, financial analysts, venture capitalists, and all investment professionals will find this an indispensable tool of the trade!
