Visual Finance Makes It Simple
Visual Finance presents the same information as the financial statements, but does it graphically - using color, placement and volume to create meaning. The relationships are made easy to understand and to assess at a glance - for example, the Debt-to-Equity ratio is the relationship of red stacks to black stacks in the bottom area of the Balance Sheet.
