You will be asked to select a company that is publically traded. You must research and secure the SEC 10-K Annual Report for the most recent year. This is often available at the company web site. Look for "Investor Information" or "Company Information". Save the file to your computer for access. There is no need to print as the report is usually 100 pages or more.
1. Post the name of your company in the SEC 10-K company for my approval in the week 1 Discussion.
2. Each student must select a different company so read the company names selected by classmates.
Use headings in your paper such as Investments (topics from our textbook; other examples would beFinancial Ratios or Cash Flow). The report is based on the financial accounting material in our class through week 3 where topics include the Statement of Cash Flows, Financial ratio analysis, and Trend analysis including Vertical Analysis, a very important concept.
5. Take care to avoid academic dishonesty. Write your paper, read it, and edit. Use your own words.
6. Please include a brief introduction of your company as well as a conclusion/summary at the end.
7. You will also be required to include the Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement as an attachment to your report (you can cut and paste directly from the 10-K report).
8. APA style is required for citations and a reference list. Use your own words! The reference list is most important!
9. Ask questions if any of the requirements are unclear.
