Very good content but the lecturer does not answer our questions in the Q and A section.

By Nayele Catherine on 6/23/2024

The course is a perfect match for me since i have been added a new role at work of preparing consolidated financial statements so this course comes in handy. I now have a better understanding on how to consolidate statements for the shareholding company and its subsidiaries

After I cover the 4 parts from section 1, his classes are easily understandable. I am expecting the same on other sections.
