what do board members want to know about financial statements?
477851
Short answer:\nBasically, board members are stand in "owners", who would want to know how the company is doing.  Statements are hopefully the objective assessment of this.\n\nLonger:\nThey should be using the statements as a measurement of the CEO's performance, as well as an indication of the firms internal condition so that they may assist in strategy formation. Mostly, it is a performance report of the CEO.  Boards for firms like Rite Aid failed to audit the reports to see if the CEO artificially influenced the reports, or Enron, where the board was just plain disinterested in things like statements, which contained footnotes that would have signalled the presence of the entities that Fastow set up to contain Enron's debt. Actually they were very interested, if you look at their (the board members') pre-meltdown stock sales.

For this kind of job expect questions specific to your accounting skills. \n\nI would ask you about your knowledge of recent accounting pronouncements, such as FAS 133 derivatives accounting; your knowledge of regulatory capital and new initiatives like Basel II: your specific knowledge of the banking business like how other banks account for their securities portfolios & accounting methods now used in acquisitons.\n\nI'd ask you about your past work experience especially if it includes a major accounting firm. I'd ask how many people you supervised, in what capacity.\n\nSince a controller is a pretty senior position I'd also try to assess your people & organizational skills through loose, meandering, conversation oriented to your work experience.\n\nTo brush up on banking go through web sites like www.occ.treasury.gov or for accounting go through archives at www.fasb.org\n\nThis job is very technicals so brush up.

Well, for publicly traded companies, just call their investor relations departments and ask for the annual shareholders' report.  They'll be happy to send it to you because they would like you to believe giving them your money is a good idea.\n\nCompanies that aren't publicly traded aren't required to have annual reports or tell anyone anything about their businesses.

The financial statement is just that, it states the companies financial position. It will list, assets, liabilities, A/R, A/P, inventories. This reflects a period of time. If the companies liabilities exceed the assets, then your in trouble.

It depends on what records you requested.\n\nIf you requested minutes of the board of directors or stockholders meetings, those are generally required to be kept for a period of time.  Consult an attorney in New York for the specifics on that.  Other documents may or may not be required to be kept.\n\nAre you litigating this matter yourself?  If so, you are learning the hard way why its better to hire an attorney to represent you.  An attorney will know the procedures for obtaining the documents, and will be able to advise you on what documents can actually be obtained, and/or if there are other ways to obtain copies of the documents in question.\n\nI urge you, if you don't already have an attorney, to retain one.  Contact your local or state bar association for a referral.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_statement\n\nIncome statements for companies indicate how Net Revenue (money received from the sale of products and services before expenses are taken out, also known as the "top line") is transformed into Net Income (the result after all revenues and expenses have been accounted for, also known as the "bottom line"). The purpose of the income statement is to show managers and investors whether or not the company made or lost money during the period being reported.

Here are some ideas:\n\n1. Description of the agency\n2. Purpose and objectives\n3. Who is its target market/beneficiaries\n4. Why is this non profit agency important - cite specific examples of its effectiveness and include testimonials from those it has helped or from leading figures in the field\n5. Why you should support this organization\n6. How you can support the organization\n7. Contact information including website URL, address and contact email\n\nYou have to first let the brochure reader know what the agency is, and what it does. Then before you can ask them for money, you have to answer the question - "Why is it important that I contribute to this foundation? What will be its impact?" Then and only then can you start the pitch for financial request.
