What financial statement items are investors and creditors most interested in and why?
Investors are most interested in cash receipts from dividends and the cash they can receive upon selling their stock. Creditors are most interested in cash to be received for interest payments and the repayment of the principal. If a company does not have sufficient cash flows, investors and creditors could suffer as a result. The financial position, shown on the balance sheet, is also a concern for both investors and creditors because even though a company may have what appears to be sufficient cash flows for the current period, the long-run solvency picture could be weak.
