I recommend that you take notes while reading the article.



After you have read the article, pick a publicly traded company and, using the ratios discussed in the article, conduct an analysis of the company. You can find the information required from the company’s annual report. After you have calculated your results, either through the annual report or news articles from reputable publications, try to see if there are reasons for company’s current financial position.

After you have conducted your research, submit a report as if you were going to make a recommendation to executive management and/or board of directors of your organization.

Your report will include:

1) The ratios calculated, a brief description of what each ratio tells us, the results of your calculations and if each calculation is a good result, neutral result, or poor result.

2) The possible causes for the results of your analysis (based on your research of reputable news articles and the company’s annual report).

3) Your recommendation to either invest in your selected company or not invest and your rationale for the recommendation.


Please remember to use in-text citations, provide a reference page, and complete this report in APA format. It is important to note that you complete another assignment in the course based this assignment.
