Your videos are amazing. I've been an accountant for over 25 years and trained many people, but now looking for simple ways to help my wife understand accounting as she gets involved in the business. I always prided myself in being great at explaining things, but I come no where near your clarity, delivery and techniques. You are very special. I mean that. Just incredible videos.
I can see this video was posted 4 years ago but demonstration of balance-sheet is unmatched, even big named University cannot explain the way you have explained. I am literally amused with your teaching technique and got all my doubts cleared.
I asked my wife if it were ok to fall in love with you, and she told me it was ok since she loves you too 🙂. I have been trying to bend my mind around the basics of financial statements, and this is the first time I have been able to get the necessary understanding. Truly appreciated!!
The whole system has been designed to complicate everything especially with bogus terminologies but you've broken things down so much in ways that any average person can understand. Good job and many thanks 👍👍
Seriously ur explanation makes understand better than anyone lecture who r just grabbing money for online tutorials. Keep uploading new videos with creative way. Finally Thank you 👏
I retired a number of years ago after starting and running a number of successful businesses. This video would have been great when I started my first buisness at 19.
Your work is GREAT, I have whittled down my accounting lessons to yours because of how clearly you've taught the art and science. I plan to go through more of your playlists as I continue learning about accounting and bookkeeping, I am subscribed! Thank you very much.
In my line of work, I really don't need true accounting; yet I learned something new in a very exciting way today. On another hand, I work in the best Medical Center in the middle east (AUBMC) and I am encouraging my colleagues to subscribe and follow you. Thank you for your effort.
You are a great teacher. I just could understand (before seeing your video), how liabilities are considered assets, simplifying and explaining that clearly is a gift. Thank you
Excellent explanation of not only the Balance Sheet but also the 'concept' of Equity' and how these are used to determine the overall financial health of a company at a particular point in time: bravo!
The way you explain BS is excellent and more than which normally expecting from expert financial analysts .it is simply you add value in your work. Well done n keep it up
Great explanation! Using the visual of orange juice is a perfect way to demonstrate the function of the balance sheet. Love your videos, thanks for producing them.
Leila, where have you been all my life?!! I have been studying balance sheets and numbers etc for years and even asked an accountant in our finance dept to help me understand balance sheets but nothing worked. I could never work out how every time, unless by pure coincidence, Liabilities plus Stakeholders’ Equity equaled Assets. It would be so much easier to understand from the beginning if the balance diagram showed Stakeholders’ Equity on one side of the balance and Total Assets minus Total Liabilities on the other side. This is much closer to the common understanding of Profit equals Income minus Costs. It has taken until your video for me to realise that the reason it balances every time is because the stakeholders’ Equity is included but hidden in the Total Assets. I’m slow but I get there in the end! Thank you so much for simplifying it. I’m overjoyed 😄. Fantastic. You just earned a new subscriber. Mwa!
Amazing explanation, I've just started my Amazon FBA business and I needed this to know more about accounting. I'm gonna watch all your videos, and check if you have something for e-commerce. You're the best 🤗
I am a CMA and I see u explains splendidly. Maybe if I explain the topic half ppl will not understand. Good Job LG. Keep up the spirit and the next topic should be Cash Flows.
Leila, well done on another clear and concise video explaining the everyday business metrics finance work with. I’d really like to see an explanation of Gross Profit v’s Net Profit. Thanks
Since when I was in 12th never got the real logic behind it but after watching this I am able to got everything about the balance sheet. Thank you so much Mam.
I might have to sue you for making me fall in love with your lessons. Since the first time I saw your video on Index Aggregate I just found you irresistible. You are such a wonderful teacher. Thumb Up
Till now best example for understanding of Balance sheet and it's components. 🤗🤗 i am waiting to next part of accounting trough best examples. You give. Thanksss alot
Etiquette rules vary across cultures and contexts, but there are some fundamental guidelines that can help individuals navigate social situations with grace and respect. Here are some general etiquette rules that many people find helpful: 1. **Respect Personal Space:** Maintain an appropriate physical distance when interacting with others. In most cultures, a comfortable distance is around arm's length. 2. **Greeting:** When meeting someone, offer a friendly greeting, such as a handshake, a nod, or a smile. Use appropriate titles and names unless you're given permission to use a more informal form of address. 3. **Punctuality:** Be on time for appointments, meetings, and events. Being consistently late can be seen as disrespectful of others' time. 4. **Dress Appropriately:** Dress in a manner that is suitable for the occasion. When in doubt, it's usually better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed. 5. **Table Manners:** When dining, follow basic table manners, like chewing with your mouth closed, not talking with food in your mouth, and using utensils properly. Wait for everyone to be served before beginning to eat. 6. **Listening Skills:** Practice active listening when engaged in conversation. This means giving the speaker your full attention, not interrupting, and showing interest in what they're saying. 7. **Cell Phone Usage:** In social settings or during meetings, avoid using your cell phone unless it's necessary. If you need to take a call, excuse yourself politely. 8. **Thank You Notes:** Sending thank-you notes or messages after receiving gifts, attending events, or being helped by someone is a thoughtful way to express gratitude. 9. **Respecting Elders and Authority:** Show respect to elders, authority figures, and those in positions of responsibility. Use appropriate titles and show deference when appropriate. 10. **Apologizing and Forgiving:** If you make a mistake, apologize sincerely. If someone apologizes to you, be willing to forgive and move on. 11. **Hold Doors:** When entering or leaving a building, hold the door open for others if they're right behind you. 12. **Cultural Sensitivity:** Be aware of and respectful towards cultural differences. Avoid making insensitive comments or assumptions about someone's background. 13. **Eye Contact:** Maintain appropriate eye contact during conversations. It shows interest and engagement, but excessive staring can be uncomfortable. 14. **Interrupting:** Avoid interrupting people while they're speaking. Wait for a natural pause in the conversation to contribute your thoughts. 15. **Public Spaces:** Be mindful of your surroundings in public spaces. Keep noise levels down in quiet places and be considerate of others using shared facilities. 16. **Saying "Please" and "Thank You":** Use polite language like "please" when making requests and "thank you" to express gratitude. 17. **Respecting Privacy:** Respect others' privacy, whether it's refraining from prying into personal matters or not sharing someone's private information without permission. 18. **Hand Hygiene:** Practice good hand hygiene, especially before and after meals and after using the restroom. This is especially important in preventing the spread of illnesses. 19. **Gift Giving:** When giving gifts, consider the recipient's preferences and cultural norms. It's the thought that counts, so choose something meaningful and appropriate. 20. **Exiting Conversations:** If you need to leave a conversation or a social event, do so politely by excusing yourself and offering a reason if necessary. Remember that etiquette is all about treating others with kindness, respect, and consideration. Adapting these guidelines to specific situations and cultures will help you navigate social interactions effectively.
Please make a video on Fund and Investments value running for a Company. Why do companies make Funds? And How we calculate actual return. Your videos are really helpful and contains the simplest method for understanding.
I enjoyed watching your video. I'm taking basic accounting and waiting for my books to arrive. My worksheets are due, and this was very helpful to grasp the bigger picture. Thank you Leila.
I liked a lot the part when you drank the value of depreciation and salaries, it is true, it evaporates every month from company assets. A really suggestive explanation of the balance sheet. Great understanding comes from simple things, explained beautifully. Once again, dear Leila, a splendid work. Keep going, your audience thirst for knowledge will never vanish.
Employees are a liability and they start becoming that the first second they start to work. You reduced assets (cash) to pay the employees, thus decreasing assets and the liability. Hopefully those employees did production work by making, or doing something thus allowing the company to sell a product increase assets (cash or receivable,), or increased efficiency by reducing expences (limit cash drawdown and increase production). Anyway, buy two bits.
