A Plum and Gold Cover for Money Matters
Gold and a deep plum background suggest value and trust, and the round photograph of stacked coins, charts and a laptop leaves no doubt that this is a report about money. The cover is meant for financial reports of all kinds: budgets, audits, investment summaries, treasurer reports and finance department updates.
The Round Photo With a Gold Ring
The page is 8.5 x 11 inches, portrait, one page. A large rounded shape in a darker plum holds a circular picture with a gold outline, and the picture bleeds off the lower right edge. It shows coins, a laptop and floating chart graphics in warm light. The shape and ring are graphics. The photo is replaceable, but choose an image with a bright centre.
Gold Title and Vertical Text
FINANCIAL is set in a chunky gold face above REPORT in white. At the upper right, 20XX sits above the word EDITION. Under the title, a thin gold bar marks PREPARED BY and NAME SURNAME. A vertical line at the left reads LOREM IPSUM DUMMY, two blocks of text lie at the lower left, and a gold pill at the foot holds 00 321 456 9870 | [email protected] beside the words Text Replacement.
Information to Show on a Financial Report Cover
- The financial period covered.
- Whether the figures are audited or unaudited.
- The preparer: treasurer, finance manager or accountant.
- The edition or version number.
- A contact for questions about the numbers.
Being Clear About Audited and Unaudited Figures
Readers often assume that numbers are audited. If they are not, say so in the small text. Accuracy about status protects both you and the reader. Add the name of the auditor on the first inside page if an audit has been done.
Charts That Match the Gold Palette
Use gold for the main series and white or light grey for comparison. Keep a consistent scale from page to page. Simple column and line charts are easier to read than complex ones.
Editing and Printing the Plum Financial Cover
The fonts are Montserrat and Bungee, a chunky display face. Text edits freely. Dark plum prints best on a laser or at a print shop. Check the gold pill for legibility on a test print.
Plain Language for Money Reports
Not every reader is an accountant. Explain terms such as margin, liability and cash flow in a short glossary. Use a one page summary with the main numbers and what they mean. Clear writing increases confidence in the finance team.
Step by Step Editing of the Gold Financial Report Cover
- On the gold financial report cover, click the main title and type your own words, keeping the same style of capitals.
- Retype every name and contact line on the gold financial report cover, checking each spelling against an official source.
- Change the year or date on the gold financial report cover, then search the page for XX and for the word Lorem so that no placeholder remains.
- Click the logo or the photo on the gold financial report cover, choose Replace Image and resize the new picture until it fills its space.
- Zoom the gold financial report cover to full screen and read each line aloud, because spoken reading catches slips that silent reading misses.
- Keep a clean master of the gold financial report cover without your private details, so that later versions begin from a tidy copy.
