Abstract

A learning method is needed to teach university students how to read financial statements. Using a business game incorporating the need to comprehend financial statements and a paper examination, 16 students who were not studying accounting participated in an examination to see whether the game fostered reading comprehension of financial statements. The results could not clarify whether the developed business game can foster reading comprehension of financial statements. In the future, a business game should be developed in which the reading of the financial statements greatly affects the outcome.
