I need help with the post below... has to be 150 words.
This week wewill discuss areas of interestin learning how to use the comprehensive (see note*) financial techniques to evaluate a company's financial performance. Let us hear from you on your POSITIVE progress as you work with ratio analysis, side by side comparisons of the financial statements (both regular and common size), review of cash flows, and the DuPont analysis (F&O pp. 222-224). See the lectureand PowerPoint on F&O Chapter 5 with regard to six financial techniques. Discuss at least one tool or technique that has been a POSITIVE help to you, and share this with your classmates. F&O chapter 5 gives a summary of how to apply your new-found ratios and other tools, beginning on p. 213 under the heading, "Analyzing the Data."
Our discussion here could possibly include your explorations with financial tools.
* A note on the word "comprehensive"-- There aremore analytical tools that the course cannot offer due to time constraints,the scope of the course and the limitations of the textbooks. However, you should think in terms of "comprehensive" by attempting to analyze the total picture of the company's financial condition. For example, its history, current condition, and its potential. Beyond the financial statements, a line by line comparison and ratio analysis, you could reviewthe 10-K's footnotes, the MD&As, and the company's history in the news and internet archivesto develop a reasonable estimation of the firm's financial condition.
