5 Advanced Financial Analyst Interview Questions

[@TheFinancialController]

Correction: I said in the video that Current Ratio is CA-CL but actually it's CA/CL.

[@rzmr]

I watched this video numerous time before attending the interview. I'm happy to say that I have got the job. Thank you so much!

[@TheFinancialController]

Wonderful!

[@EmilyEaton-dp3zm]

For number 4, I would add that you’ll want to consider maturity dates for debt and match them to whatever expenditures they’re funding

[@TheFinancialController]

Will do

[@hauwaadeshina]

Yes! I need this video

[@NaruIchiLuffy]

Good stuff, just a small note. You wrote for the current ratio equation the contents of the working capital equation, which is still useful to look at for solvency but different. CR = CA/CL vs WC = CA=CL

[@TheFinancialController]

Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve pinned a comment with the correction

[@christopherteague9388]

Might be a typo but Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities; not Current Assets = Current Liabilities

[@xiCzargaming]

I admire everything that you broadcast on your channel. I am a senior majoring in finance is their any tips that you recommend for a new analyst entering the job market. So far I have gotten an Excel Associate Certificate and the Securities Industry essential certificate. I love doing top- down stock valuations and financial analysis. Keep the videos coming.

[@rohitvautre3159]

Thanks for making such an informative video. It's really helpful. Please make a video on FP&A.

[@TheFinancialController]

Ok will do

[@yusuf.ali.24]

the current ratio measures the liquidity of a business and not its solvency, as an example, you may have a current ratio less than one, which indicates that current assets are lower than current liabilities, while at the same time your total assets may be larger than your total liabilities, which indicates that you are solvent. It is important to distinguish between liquidity and solvency. My personal opinion.

[@EmilyEaton-dp3zm]

Agreed Would also note solvency refers to long term debt obligations while liquidity is typically associated with short term

[@landervillamor3143]

Can you discuss on Net present Value and IRR? Thanks.

[@TheFinancialController]

Sure

thanks bill, really appreciated...👍🏻

[@TheFinancialController]

Thanks for watching

[@liuyingjianshi8545]

OMG I was shocked that I think every finance-majored student should know these answers for the exam, however I don't assume anyone will still remember them without reviewing. By the way, it doesn't means that a finance student with a good mark can be a ready-to-work financial analyst. Am I correct?

[@raedbamoudah2512]

I enjoyed so much. Thanks

Thanks I m gonna feel more confident now 😂

[@olayemilaniyan1329]

Great content! But seems you made a mistake in the current ratio formula(CA÷CL), what you said was a working capital formula (CA-CL) in point 3.

[@TheFinancialController]

Ahh someone was paying close attention. Good job catching this!!

[@Perfectmyself]

Is your definition of ebitda correct? Don’t you add them back, you say subtract

[@worldsecrets8323]

Hello sir, before u telling the answers I can answer your 5 question u have asked in the video.Now am doing accountant job and have ten years of experience and am also doing part time stock trading india so I want to do financial analyst job instead of accountant job. Can u advice me how to get that financial analyst job. Whether am eligible for that.. Advice me which type of companies hire financial analyst...

[@den368able]

Current ratio is a measure of liquidity, not solvency. Better to talk about interest coverage ratio (EBITDA/Int. Expense), debt/equity. Also CR is Current Assets/Current Liabilities. CA-CL is working capital.

[@manikantadream2360]

CR=CA/CL not CA-CL

[@discoverygarden2730]

Your videos are good but Can u speak slower in next video?

[@TheFinancialController]

Haha ok
