Довольно сложно усваивать эту тему без примеров на слух. Очень понравились вопли птиц на заднем плане. Складывалось ощущение, что я в зоопарке

It was interesting to see how cash flow statements for NFP differs from for-profit entities. This course was easy to understand and appropriate for someone who doesn't have a background in NFP.

Nice overview of the components of a cash flow statement for NFPs. The instructor clearly communicated important things for NFPs to consider when preparing a statement of cash flows.
