- 14:30 - 15:30Hands-On Finances for BeginnersThere is a saying that goes, “you don’t know your business until you know it’s finances.” This is very true, but you don’t need to be an accountant to understand the basic accounting principles that apply to your day-to-day financial decision making. In this workshop, you will learn the difference between a profit and loss statement and balance sheet, as well as how to create a cash flow budget, and how to determine the sale price for your product or service.
