Overview
In the sixth webinar session, participants examine the differences in key financial performance ratios computed from business income tax returns and accrual financial statements. Building on the issues explored in the prior webinar session on the use of information in Schedule K and Schedule M-1 in constructing an accrual income statement, they revisit and extend the process of transforming the quasi-income statement on the first page of business income tax returns for partnerships, limited liability corporations, and Subchapter S corporations - Schedule 1065 and Schedule 1120S - into an accrual income statement. Further, participants assess the value of discarding business income tax returns as the basis for borrower analysis in favor of transforming Schedule 1065 or Schedule 1120S into an accrual income statement for use in proper ratio construction and borrower assessment.
