2.) Using financial ratios from all five categories (beginning on page 107 in the textbook), using Excel please calculate ratios and use those ratios to analyze Walmarts financial strengths and weaknesses. At a minimum, analyze, and calculate ratios for three years of data and comment on the trend (improving, declining, stable). If the trend is notable, dig deeper to determine the reason behind the results. Since we cannot contact the CFO to ask questions, including the questions you would ask if given the chance. Although not necessary, if you are able to find a few industry benchmarks or close competitor ratio results for comparison purposes, please do so. REQUIRED! Please include a link or screenshot of financial statements used to prepare calculations. This could be from yahoo.finance, the firms annual report, or other reliable sources. (40 points)

TIP: Remember business writing is succinct and often does not reflect complete sentences. For example: If I wanted to relay a negative trend in profitability I may craft it like this:Annual 2018 net profit margin dropped 120 bps to 3.0% reflecting the higher cost of goods sold fueled by new China tariffs. Over one-half of the 25% increase in tariffs was passed along to the consumer, with ABC absorbing the remainder. TIP: Not all ratios will apply to all firms. Choose at least one ratio from each category to assess performance.
