How To Read Annual Reports & Balance Sheets------jaico

them overwhelming and even frightening because they do not understand
them. Consequently, they look at the net income and if it has increased
and a dividend has been paid they look no further in the belief that all
is well.

innovative ideas, accounting principles are changed, provisions are
manipulated and accounting theory itself is engineered by companies to
create profits, sometimes out of thin air.
