Mergers and acquisitions (M&A), driven by globalization, long-term markets, and various barriers to growth, often result in new organizations whose financial and strategic options are much improved. Thus, M&A can be a valuable tool by which companies can quickly attempt to increase revenue. This mergers and acquisitions online course discusses all facets of M&A and divestitures, such as types, structures, the process, valuation methods, tax implications, essential compliance requirements (e.g. SEC filing, accounting rules), and financial analysis of combinations.

A Practical Guide to Mergers, Acquisitions, and Divestitures - v13 (6 Hrs)

After decades of low inflation, prices spiked in the 2020s. Inflation was back, but a generation of managers had little experience with it. That lack of experience caused companies to make mistakes when inflation started its fast ascent. Financial leaders need to relearn the skills and insights that guided companies through the high inflation of the 1970s and 1980s.

This course is broken into two sections. The first section will cover some key concepts about inflation. You'll learn:

  • What is inflation?
  • The Federal Reserve's role in managing inflation
  • The indexes used to measure inflation
  • How to calculate inflation
  • A historical look at inflation and its causes
  • The advantages and disadvantages of inflation
  • Consumer reactions to inflation

The second section builds on these concepts to provide implications for company financial management. I'll explain:

  • How to prepare for inflation
  • The importance of cash management
  • Ways to earn more income and protect your cash during inflation
  • Pricing tactics and strategies
  • Inflation implications for capital expenditures
  • Tips and ideas for many aspects of company financial management
Inflation: Key Concepts and Business Financial Management Ideas (3 Hrs)

Business environmental monitoring gathers internal and external data that could affect a company. Business leaders and financial analysts can examine that data to identify implications for their company and develop strategies for those implications. These strategies often mitigate threats or capture opportunities. Companies that better understand their business environment can anticipate and plan for changes, build more accurate financial projections, and allocate resources more effectively.

This course focuses on Finance's role in environmental analysis. You'll learn the types of data that should be monitored by Finance.  The course then explains popular models for analyzing that data.

You'll learn:

  • The steps in the environmental monitoring cycle
  • The basics and uses of common-size analysis in environmental monitoring
  • What to analyze: both internal and external, and from the industry level to the customer level
  • Sources of financial business environment information
  • Models to organize and synthesize environmental information for planning and decision-making

This course is useful for business leaders and financial staff who are involved in any of these processes:

  • Strategic planning
  • Budgeting, financial projects, and financial modeling
  • Identifying best practices and benchmarks
  • Product and customer profitability analysis
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • Tax planning
  • Setting owners' distributions or dividends
Business Environmental Analysis: Finances Role (3 Hrs)

Serving on a nonprofit board is a wonderful way to improve our world and can provide some benefits to you. As a financial professional, you have so much to offer not-for-profit companies. This course is for those new to not-for-profit boards and provides insights to those with nonprofit board experience.

This course will cover the duties of a financial professional as a board member. I'll start with the benefits you provide to a nonprofit board and what your board experience may offer to you. You’ll learn the key questions to ask and the important document to review before joining a board. I'll list the three duties of all board members. We'll also explore the personal liability risks of joining a board and some risks the organization faces. You'll learn some ways to mitigate these risks.

The second half of the course goes deeper into nonprofit financial oversight. We'll look at the financial policies that boards use to guide their organizations. I'll explain how nonprofit financial statements differ from for-profit statements and how financial management is also different. We'll look at the duties of the finance committee and the audit committee, as well as the types of nonprofit audits and examinations. I thought a great way to end a course on tax-exempt organizations is with a lesson on tax compliance. Ironic, isn't it?

This course is tailored to financial professionals, which includes:

  • Accountants and CPAs
  • Financial analysts
  • Financial planners
  • Investment analysts
  • Anyone who has managed finances at a company

This course focuses on the financial governance, risk management, and compliance aspects of board service. It does not go into the details of accounting for nonprofits, completing tax forms, audit procedures, etc. There are many good courses by others that cover this.

The author has worked for multiple nonprofits, including as CFO and SVP of Finance. He has also served on multiple nonprofit boards.

Nonprofit Board Service for Financial Professionals (3 Hrs)

Behavioral finance has shown that all people, even financial experts, are prone to making irrational and suboptimal financial decisions. It also explores how people have wants that extend far beyond traditional finances' assumption of wanting the highest return at the lowest risk. We are not perfectly rational economic robots; we are easily driven by many wants and emotions while working with limited time, knowledge, and energy.

This course explores many of the thinking errors and biases exhibited by all people, even the experts. You'll be able to identify the nonfinancial wants that drive the financial decisions of your clients. We'll then identify ways to improve financial decision-making in the contexts of personal financial planning and business financial management.

You'll learn from an author that teaches these concepts to MBA students at a university as well as to business advisors and staff. He is a CPA that's been a CFO of multiple companies. Rob also has a master's degree in personal financial planning and a graduate certificate in financial therapy. He served as program manager for a group of investment advisors.

This course will lead you from foundational finance concepts to practical applications in both personal finance and business finance.

Description :

One of the most crucial skills for any manager to develop, financial or otherwise, is an ability to pick up and read a set of financial statements. Financial statements tell important stories about how a business has performed, its level of financial strength, and the availability of cash generated. Unfortunately, these stories are often not explicitly stated and require understanding and further analysis.

In this course, we will work through a set of financial statements highlighting the key points of relevance. We will also learn about ratio analysis, which will help us generate a deeper level of insight into the financial results by making comparisons to prior periods and to peers. This is a foundational course that will deepen your understanding of what the numbers mean.
