You are required to prepare a report that addresses two specific tasks: 1. Undertake an analysis of the performance of your company, comparing and contrasting performance against other companies in the same sector. Use should be made of the range of performance indicators discussed in class but can be supplemented by other indicators and approaches as you believe appropriate. You should specifically look at the capital structure of the business and any impact that may have on the performance and resilience of the company (60% of assessment 1 marks). 2. Identify a capital investment opportunity for your company - this should involve an initial capital outlay and the generation of future cashflows over a period of at least 4 years. Financial appraisal techniques should be applied, including evaluation of associated risk and you should make recommendations as to whether the opportunity should be allocated capital funding (40% of assessent 1 marks). Your analysis should be documented in a 2,000 word report that should comment on your analysis, discuss the findings, make recommendations and identify relevant limitations. Your report may include up to an additional 500 words providing contextual information on your company in a self contained section and you may also include relevant supporting information in appendices that will also be outside of the maximum word count. Work should be referenced.
