The MBA in a Day – Essentials of Finance & Accounting Financial Poise webinar series is designed for you if you are a startup founder, business owner, executive, investor, attorney or consultant who, though not a finance or accounting professional, finds herself needing to understand finance and accounting. It won’t make you an expert but it will give you the tools you need to speak with experts in order to get more out of them and it will provide a solid foundation on which you can build.

Packed with illustrative examples, helpful anecdotes and real-world case studies, this series teaches you some of the key take things you need to understand about finance and accounting.

The first episode of the series, EBITDA and Other Scary Words, airs on March 15th at 3:00 PM CST, and features Moderator Jonathan Friedland of Sugar Felsenthal Grais & Helsinger. He is joined by Richard Claywell of the Offices of J. Richard Claywell CPA, Jacen Dinoff of KCP Advisory Group LLC, and Michael Fixler of FocalPoint Partners LLC.

This webinar explores the ins and outs of financial language and how you can navigate the seeming labyrinth of a language that can sound foreign and in some ways counterintuitive. This webinar teaches the correct use of EBIT, EBITDA and EBITDAR while also dealing with concepts like Cap Rate vs. Capital Cost. This webinar also sheds light on issues with ROI and Payback among other valuation tools and explain what a Cash Conversion Cycle looks like for your business.
