It provides a clear understanding of the professional and legal regulations in the UK that support the foundations of company reporting, analysis and interpretation of company financial statements in the UK from the users perspective, the major weaknesses and limitations of UK company reports, the questioning approach that the user should adopt, and the impact of European and environmental issues.
