The Ratio Analysis (aka Fundamental Analysis) Application Report will ask you to conduct a
financial ratio analysis of two corporations of your choosing.
Imagine that you are a Financial Analyst who was asked by the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of your
company to recommend an investment in either the common stock of a competitor in your industry, or
a company that supplies goods to your own firm. Your CFO intends to strategically invest $10
Million into the common stock of an outside company. The CFO will use your analysis to select the
company in which to invest.
