· Choose one of the 3 companies listed in your Instructor’s Week 1 Announcement.

· Create an Excel workbook, including data for your chosen company as follows:

o The 1st tab (worksheet) in your Financial Statement Analysis Template must be labeled Company Information. The following information must be included:

§ Company Name and ticker symbol

§ Major competitors

§ An example of this tab is provided in Exhibit A.

o The 3rd tab in your Financial Statement Analysis Template must be labeled Historical Balance Sheets.

§ Include the latest three years based on SEC (10-K) filings. (Note: Some 10-Ks only provided 2 years of balance sheet data. You may need to download the second most recent 10-K for your company in order to obtain 3 years of balance sheet data.)

· Company Name

§ Ensure that the worksheet includes a header with:

· Company Name

· Financial Statement Name

· Financial Statement Dates

· Denomination level ($s in millions or thousands, etc.)

o Other instructions:

§ The Excel workbook should be professionally formatted. Professional formatting includes:

· All numbers are formatted similarly. The use of decimals, commas for thousands, and other formatting is consistent.

· Dollar signs are included in the first and last numbers of each column.

· Subtotals and totals are preceded by a single underline. Totals are followed by a double underline.

· All extraneous information is removed from the spreadsheet. Sometimes, files downloaded from the SEC website contains extra characters or other things that need to be deleted.

· Line descriptions are indented/bolded in a manner that makes the spreadsheet easy to read.

§ All totals and subtotals should be calculated using formulas.  For an example of which cells may need formulas, please see Exhibit B.
