Description
Using the library and other course resources, find a manufacturing company's annual report.
Calculate the following ratios for the company that you select:
- Return on assets
- Return on equity
- Gross profit margin
- Debt to equity ratio
- Debt ratio
- Current ratio
- Quick ratio
- Inventory turnover
- Total asset turnover

Keep in mind that you are trying to determine how the firm is performing under each of the listed ratios. In a memo to the chief executive officer (CEO), include the following:
- Explain the ratios that you calculated.
- Address other methods of analyzing financial statements aside from ratio analysis.
- Explain your analysis of the firm, and make recommendations for improvement.
