Q-1

A company reports accounting data in its financial statements. This data is used for financial analyses that provide insights into a company’s strengths, weaknesses, performance in specific areas, and trends in performance. These analyses are often used to compare a company’s performance to that of its competitors, or to its past or expected future performance. Such insight helps managers and analysts improve their decision making.
Consider the following scenario:
You work for a brokerage firm. Your boss asked you to analyze Blue Parrot Manufacturing’s performance for the past three years and to write a report that includes a benchmarking of the company’s performance.
Which of the following components would be best for you to include in your financial statement analysis?
