Let's Talk Finance

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only. This workshop is aimed at people who don’t think of themselves as a ‘numbers person’ and looks to take the mystery out of their business financials. In this interactive session, key financial information will be presented in a visual way using the Colour Accounting Learning System. Participants will be provided with a workbook and pop up pack to use throughout the workshop sessions to assist them to better understand profit and loss statements and balance sheets. Following this workshop, you will have a greater understanding of accounting, finance and business and how they interrelate. This topic covers: • What accounting concepts and terms mean in plain English • The importance of a balance sheet and how it talks to your profit and loss statement • Understanding what your business finances actually mean • Knowing the right questions to ask your accountant or bookkeeper
