Compare and contrast the two companies. Which company is the better investment
Write your analysis and interpretations of the ratios you calculated. Very brief, summarize most important ratios.
--Write your analysis/interpretations of the horizontal analyses
--Write your analysis/interpretations of the vertical analyses
Briefly, analyze the companies, given the limited data you have created. You do NOT need to research these companies beyond the spreadsheet analyses that you have done and the additional information you have gathered. You need to make conclusions about the companies: Are these companies healthy? Are the trends favorable? Based on your very limited research, do you recommend this company for investment? Finally, which company is the better investment? Make a conclusion and give evidence from your data to support your conclusion. Quote numbers.
