I had a little background of the concepts and content - and was therefore able to solve the numerical questions. However, for the uninitiated, the lectures contained more theory - while quizzes and assignments more numericals. Would recommend to include some examples of numericals in the videos so students have some idea of the concepts before trying real problems. Without this, some may find themselves lost. Otherwise, a good course. Thanks..

Great course, especially useful to learn the specific vocabulary and get insights into Financial Analysis. I found some topics could have been explained more thoroughly, for example regarding the evaluation of discount rates or number of time period (we have the criteria, but no example of a method). Previous accounting knowledge is a requirement in my view.

The Course is great, I get deeper knowledge about finantial ratios and how to interpret the implementation of each ratios to the business of a company. I think would be more exciting if the instructor use more attractive and more detail slide presentation and also should use more easily-understanding English.

A brilliant beginners' course for an introduction to accounting and financial analysis. Prof. Paul Kaufman is an added asset to this course with his simplistic definitions and examples. It definitely has a lot to teach and much to take forward in a corporate career.

A great course, but I think you should pre-study the materials to confirm the material here. It's just the gist and from my assessment quite incomplete, or suitable if you're quite learned previously. Again, this is the essentials of corporate finance!

A good introduction to some of the basics. The presentation was generally okay; the course materials could have been organised a little better. Requires no previous accounting knowledge (though that helps) and only very basic math.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course, faced trouble in the last examination contributing 10%. this course explained all the insights of company financials I gained a lot of knowledge through this course. thank you, Coursera

It is a very interesting course for anyone who wants to learn the foundations of accounting principles and financial analysis. The course is well structured and well taught by the Prof Paul Kofman.

Great course! It was insightful yet everything was polished and on point. The knowledge and the "tools" are really useful, for someone who is a beginner and interested in Financial Analysis!

For those who have already had majored in accounting, it may seem too easy. It may be considered as a course for review some basic accounting concepts.

excellent course especially for me as being an accountant i am learning and understanding how the numbers are used to analyze and compare

The first two weeks were amazing. I thought week 3 could use a bit more content and interesting material. Week 4 was just okay.

the course has been really good so far, I just want them to add explanations on actually solving the practical questions

Solid class, good overview and a useful final project. Very informative for learning financial analysis.

I quite enjoyed this course. It gave a good background on the necessary basics for financial analysis.

A nice introduction to accounting, giving understanding of basics. Thanks a lot to mister Koffman!

Great quality, learning, applications. Enathe language and tools expected after course completion.

A good introduction with alot or practical task, the speaker could show a bit more enthusiasm

The course was easy to understand. The example given were accurate to explain the concepts.

Really good course, great professor, good examples, good information and very useful

Such an amazing course helped to learn a lot.....time worth it thank yu

Basic introduction course.

But it is interesting and well developed.

Need more examples in order to understand how to calculate ratios.

Very well presented, easy to follow, terms reasonably explained

Great introductory course to understand financial statements
