3. Were any changes adopted in any accounting methods?
4. Were there any subsequent events, errors and fraud, illegal acts, or related-party transactions that have a material effect on the companys financial position?
5. What are two trends in the companys operations or capital resources that management considers significant to the companys future?
6. Does the company engage in more than one significant line of business? If so, compare the relative profitability of the different segments.
7. How stable are the companys operations?
8. Has the companys situation deteriorated or improved with respect to liquidity, solvency, asset management, and profitability?
