Below is the assignment. I most need a good nudge in the right direction as how to start this with the framework and then I think once I get the ball rolling I will have an easier time with this.
Choose a publicly traded company, and research its annual report. (If you cannot find it online, you can go to the U.S. securities and Exchange Commission Web site and locate a copy). These results have been audited, but for this exercise, view them as if they were not.
