we need explanation for answers for quizzes. some of the calculations seem incorrect

Videos are informative.

For a course for non-financial people it becomes quite complicated towards the last 3 weeks. The first 3 weeks are great and I found it very useful. After that the lecturer goes quite quickly through certain models and calculations, with the main issue being he interchanges multiple terms continuously without properly explaining what each term is. I found myself constantly stopping the video, rewinding, scrolling down to the transcript to try and understand the flow of the lecture, which at times appeared all over the place.

Many of the calculations in the quizzes are not accurate. I found no matter how many times I did the calculations that I was often a few decimal places off what the answers were and often picked the answer closest to my calculation. Often this resulted in the correct answer, but to provide us with numbers without decimal places and then to give the answers with decimals (clearly using decimal places to work the answers out), meant that the answers we calculate were often quite distant from the correct one.

Interesting subject, and especially the ratios are handy. However, the quality of supporting material of the course is very poor. First of all, it is an old course (2010 figures). Secondly, quality of the video (even at the highest display quality) is low: you can not read the figures the professor is showing on the screen. Next, the professor is regularly referring (espacially in week 6, 7 and 8) to exercises he is doing on his Excel, but the screen is not shared and we only see him self, not the screen share. On a last note, also the content - especially weeks 7 and 8 - is not explained very well in my opinion (but probably because the poor visual assistance of screen sharing). I have followed other Coursera courses where this was not an issue at all, so believe it is really only limited to this course.

The professor is a very engaging speaker, however the course is not optimized for online learning. Materials are often referenced to but you either are never given access to them, or are given to you after the fact. Likewise as the course goes on he will do equations without sharing them on the screen, making it hard to follow along and fully understand how to use information found in financial statements to equation at hand. I hope they update this course at some point because as I mentioned he is a very engaging lecturer, I think the course is hampered by it being created in the earlier days of self-directed online learning.
