Building Block Financial Ratio: Profitability
Write a paper on one of the four building blocks of financial ratios we have studied in this course.
Explain how each of the ratios within that class is calculated and how they are used to analyze financial statements. Then, select a recently filed set of financial statements and calculate all the ratios in the building block you selected for that company.
Explain what these ratios tell you about the company. In this context, a recent set of financial statements would be those issued in the current or previous year.
Reminder: Your Part 2 paper should be two to three pages in length total and conform to CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.). Include at least 4 scholarly references as needed in addition to the course textbook to support your views. The CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a good place to find these references.
Part 1 of the Portfolio Project will open at the start of the week in which it is scheduled. Both Parts 1 and 2 of the Portfolio Project are due by 11:59 p.m. MT on Sunday of the assigned week. Please refer to the CSU Global late policy for Critical Thinking assignments if you have any questions on due dates.
