As you are reviewing historical financial statements you cannot conclude if this company is a good investment.Select a company that is publicly traded. It must have an Accounts Receivable and Inventory Account. It is recommended you select a manufacturing company.You must research and secure the SEC 10-K Annual Report for the most recent year. This is often available at the company web site. Search for “Investor Information” or “Company Information” and “SEC Filing.”You may also find the report using the SEC EDGAR system. Save the file to your computer for access. There is no need to print this file as the report is usually 100 pages or more. Use this company in the Discussion postings throughout the semester.

If you want to make a YouTube video, here are some important tips for those who have not done it before. First, you will need to obtain a video recording device such as a cell phone, webcam, or camcorder. Another thing you will have to do is make a decision on whether or not to make a video blog, comedy skit, how-to video, or a video that is about travel. Remember that your video must be no more than 15 minutes long for traditional YouTube membership accounts. You will want to create a video with good light quality, and that usually means daytime recording. Finally, be sure to use editing software to change or delete anything. 23. A number of employees have asked about how to make two-sided copies. Here’s what to do. The copy for side 1 of the original goes face down on the Document Glass. Then the Document Cover should be closed. Next you should select the quantity that you require. To copy side 1, you should then press Start. Now you remove the first original and place the second original face down on the Document Glass. The Document Cover should be closed. Now you remove side 1 copy from the Output Tray. It should be inserted face down into the Paper Bypass Tray. Then select the Alternate Paper Tray and press Start. 24. Obtaining credit and keeping good credit can be difficult, especially for young people. Here are five suggestions that will help you obtain credit and maintain a good credit score. One thing I like to suggest first is getting a gas store card. These cards are easier to get than regular credit cards. What’s great about them is that you can establish a credit history by making small payments in full and on time. To maintain good credit, you should always pay your bills on time. Delinquencies are terrible. They create the biggest negative effect on a credit score. If you already have credit cards, your balance should be paid down. If you can’t afford to do that, you might take a loan from a family member or friend. If you have unused credit card accounts, don’t close them. I know it sounds as if you should, but actually, canceling a card can lower your score. Don’t do it! Finally, never max out your credit cards. A good rule of thumb to follow is keeping your balance below 30 percent of your credit limit.
