Casework - Casework should be posted according to the course schedule in Moodle using the assignment submit link. Use the provided annual report for Nike, Inc. This report and its Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Balance Sheets will serve as your primary resource for completing the casework. Perform a qualitative and quantitative financial ratio analysis using only the years 2014 and 2013 and the following Financial Analysis and Interpretation ratios from the end of each chapter:

liabilities to owners equity (Ch. 1) working capital (Ch. 4) current (Ch. 4) sales to assets (Ch. 6) inventory turnover (Ch. 7) number of days sales in inventory (Ch. 7) accounts receivable turnover (Ch. 9) number of days sales in receivables (Ch. 9) fixed asset turnover (Ch. 10) quick (Ch. 11)

You must complete a cover page (stating your name and the company) along with a reference page (listing the annual report and any other resources such as websites). There is a half-page minimum per ratio, including the years 2014 and 2013 quantitative analysis plus qualitative analysis. The qualitative analysis should not define the ratio using the text terms; rather, define and describe what the ratio means to your company. This may consist of trends, prior year comparisons, industry/peer comparisons, or notes from Nikes annual report. The quantitative financial ratio analysis should include the text ratio formula, Nikes data, and the calculations. Use only the 2014 and 2013 year-end data for ratios requiring averages (not 2012).
