In total, how many hours is this course?

[@mcd22630]

Might be the best opening 60 seconds in the history of KZbin. No doubt the course is just as well thought out and planned.

[@SamirHabib]

I always ask myself why Leila's lessons so comfortable to watch in compare with others. And I defined several reasons for myself: 1. She is never in a hurry. Explains everything calmly and clearly. 2. She never stumbles, it is immediately clear that she is preparing for the lessons very seriously and thoroughly. 3. Her videos usually don't have music. It's generally just great. Because music is usually distracting. If I want, I can turn on the music and listen to lectures under it. 4. We see both the lecturer and the screen alternately, and this does not bother us. 5. She explains very briefly but concisely. 6. This is the most important sound quality is just super. It's nice to listen. Thank you Leila, You were born to teach. Best regards - Samir Mammadov from Azerbaijan.

[@shirleymoreman6725]

Agree 100%! And I love the way courses are broken down into sections so I can easily go back and find something if I forget.

[@LeilaGharani]

Thank you so much! Your comment made my day. We’ve been struggling with getting good audio for years. It’s really nice to see that it’s paid off 😊. I’m also happy you enjoy the pace of the videos.

[@MMAFightMagazine]

@@ismailkhusniddin2664 Why do you think you should get a refund? You learn all the info, then subjectively and without any acceptable reason decide that you don't like it? If you get a degree; should anyone who lies about not liking it get a refund? How about if you buy some groceries, and eat them then say you didn't like them? ...unless of course she offers such a guarantee. Re: your question... You could probably torrent it to others. But that's besides the point. And the only reason I'd suggest suggest such a thing is due to the lack of a response. Any moderately respectable business knows the importance of communication and customer support.

[@diomedesrodriguez52]

I'm having a flashback, remembering my most inspiring accounting mentor Mr. Ed Plata. He made me love and appreciate accounting beyond debits and credits and financial statements. I dedicate this very interesting video to my mentor. Mr. Plata, I miss you. May you rest in peace.

[@axeemx]

RIP sir. Very rare to find a mentor in accounting field.

[@tan_k]

Considering his name was “Plata”, I am sure he must be great with financials.

[@diomedesrodriguez52]

[@teoxengineer]

Yes, finally the course I wanted came. On December 14, 2019, I suggested that you can give a course in this area you were an expert, and you said you would take this suggestion into consideration. Now that's real. You are the only channel that can give financial analysis and excel information together and will be able to reach this knowledge and will gladly be involved in this course. Hey, engineers, bankers, financiers, students and many, what are you waiting for, the bell rang, everyone should enter the class

[@tn911man]

I’m well into this course and have already learned things I THOUGHT I knew. I have to force myself to take a break. No one teaches the way Leila does.

I support Leila having their own site and selling also in Udemy. I bought an Udemy version of Power Query and is real high quality. Absolutely profesional job. KZbin and Udemy is full of mediocre courses and everyone copying each other. I think there are just people who complains about everything! Every video requires many hours of work! Plus she's a real professional look at her LinkedIn profile she's not improvising here folks

[@liliespetals19]

I almost choked at "The (!) current ratio (????)" I was eating 😂 I have an accounting degree, hard fought but I did it and found this channel to help fill in the business skills recent grads had advised we would need but weren't covering in our courses. I've barely used outlook, and while my word, pp, and excel skills are all intermediate, I've never heard of xlookup or vlookup - which employers wants.

[@shirleymoreman6725]

Love the "acting" at the start of this video! Having done some of your courses I'm sure this will be a brilliant one to get people to really understand those accounting terms (without having to Google them!) and how to crunch the numbers.

[@chh8860]

Although I am not a CPA, I have worked with these topics for decades ... and am reasonably comfortable with them. Nonetheless I will still take the course at some point because I suspect Prof Leila could still provide illumination for me to have an "AHA!!!" moment. Another 'gem' I'm sure. PS At the <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="105">1:45</a> mark Leila commented: " ... I like things to make sense ..." Me too. In grad school I took a US Federal Taxation course ... very little makes sense in the US Tax Code when determining 'Taxable Income'... IMHO ... 😖

[@LeilaGharani]

Good to know it's not just our tax code that's unnecessary complicated 😊

[@joulsw3739]

I did an accounting degree. But it made sense when I trained as a Chartered Accountant. I now help business owners understand their finances.

[@adityabenwalca]

As a person belonging to the same field.. I understand your first part.. about how accounting is taught and what it is in real world. And it was a good cameo in the beginning .. but I still need the answer to the question "Is debit balance a bad thing" 😂😂😂

[@Andres-sr7uv]

This so real but true. You are correct about how they teach accounting. I also find that still use the example of warehouse work to teach accounting which is still valid but they don’t seem teach accounting from any other industry stand point

[@rishi9406]

Leila is the GOAT! Great video

[@karhukivi]

Excellent, Leila! Please have a look at the so-called "DuPont" model which makes sense of business accounting and I see you mentioned asset turnover, which is often forgotten as most people focus on sales and profit margins. Beware of the terms "debt" which some people relate to bankruptcy and "assets" which often include items which do not contribute directly to the money-making ability of a firm. The accountant's definition of an asset could include that mahogany executive desk or some status symbol. The best test of an asset is to ask "is it essential or desirable?"!! ROE and ROA are the essential ratios to compare one business with another. Overtrading and undertrading are what kills most businesses.

[@LeilaGharani]

Thanks for sharing. The DuPont framework is a classic.

[@adityabenwalca]

I did a linkedIn learning course on dupont analysis. It was very informative. Changes the way you look at financial statements. Hope we can have something similar from you in future Leila.

I find its about Humility. Humble yourself and ask how your company does it - chances are its different than the Book teachings. How many people actually are willing to admit they don't know everything??? Great job as usual - i enjoy your channel.

[@KarlHeckman]

Love your channel, love your presence on it. At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="445">7:25</a> I think you meant to display "Journal Entries" rather than "Entires". I'm confident you were simply testing my powers of observation and the lesson to me is Attention to Detail Matters. :) Your friend and admirer, Karl.

[@LeilaGharani]

You caught me there, Karl 😁

[@bosnianinny]

I just remembered the moment when, for the first time, I calculated Cash Flow Statement from Income Statement and two Balance Sheets :) I was so happy since at that moment everything just "clicked". Your video reminded me of that moment. Anyhow, when i try to do ratio analysis, I usually cover five areas: Liquidity, Profitability, Activity, Leverage and Coverage. Combination of ratios from these five areas allows experienced analysts to do diagnostics. Looking at ratios from one or few of these areas ends up by describing symptoms only, without ability to perform diagnostics. Based on this intro video, I do not doubt that course will be excellent! :)

[@LeilaGharani]

Thank you for the nice comment 😊

[@chrism9037]

Great Leila, along with the acting up front :)

[@Zz59295]

I felt the same way too, when I took up an accounting module in university. For someone who likes maths, number and logic, I am shocked that I couldn't understanding accounting. I understand how to do it, but I never understand the meaning behind the motion. I am glad and relieved that it is only for a module in university, and I did not choose to take up accounting degree. Always thought it is my own problem, but glad to know now that I am not alone.

Hello leila, I am a huge fan of your channel and i continuously watch your videos. I want to make a one of your courses since it might help me with my career. I am a finance manager for a company based in Qatar. I came across the financial modeling course. I know everything in accounting and but i thought of buying it to refresh my memory again. My question is: Does this course teach me how to construct the financial statements on excel or it is just a course for teaching accounting concepts or principles? Does the course teaches me how to do general journals and then trial balance on excel And contructing all financial statements. Appreciate your reply since iam trying to.find a course which will.help me.do that since our compamy does not have a software.

[@LeilaGharani]

Our course focuses on accounting and finance concepts. You'll also learn key Excel functions useful for these topics. We'll also show you how to make a trial balance, an income statement, and a balance sheet using Excel. However, this is for understanding of how these reports are constructed. It does not provide an alternative to an accounting software. Hope this helps.
