When the bubble burst and the large number of accounting scandals began to grow, most investors didn’t know where to turn or whom to trust. Now it has become more important than ever for investors to take matters into their own hands.  \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFinancial Fine Print: Uncovering a Company’s True Value\u003c\/i\u003e lets individual investors in on the secrets that seasoned professional investors use when they evaluate a potential investment. Buried deep in a company’s quarterly (10-Q) and annual (10-K) reports are the real clues to a company’s financial health: the footnotes. At many large companies, these footnotes can run for more than 30 pages and for some corporations have doubled in the past five years, making them simply too important for investors to ignore.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFinancial Fine Print\u003c\/i\u003e spells out exactly what investors need to look for within the footnotes of a company’s reports in order to make better, more informed decisions. By using numerous examples of actual footnotes that have appeared in SEC documents, the book teaches investors in easy-to-understand language ways to spot – and avoid – future Enrons and Worldcoms (and Tycos and Adelphias and HealthSouths). For any investor who has spent the past three years watching their investments shrink and has begun to think about getting back into the market, this book provides the critical tools that investors need to know to avoid getting burned once again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword.  \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Don’t Get Fooled Again.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Reading the Fine Print Like a Pro.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: You Don’t Need to Be a Pro.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Charge It!.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Optional Illusions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: All in the Family.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Pensions in Wonderland.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Debt by Many Other Names.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9: Five Common Ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 10: Changing the World.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA Few Final Words.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix A: A Cheat Sheet for Reading Key SEC Filings.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix B: A Brief Walk through Qwest’s Fine Print.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Finance \u0026amp; accounting [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Finance \u0026amp; accounting\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Finance%20\u0026amp;%20accounting%20%5BKF%5D%22\"\u003eKF\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501394489624,"sku":"9780471433477","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471433477.jpg?v=1786235300","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/financial-fine-print-uncovering-a-companys-true-value-hardback-9780471433477","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
