It is the end of a reporting period. Because there are more people than usual retiring this year, your manager has asked your accounting department to create 2 things:

2. Select a company filing of your choice that contains a multiple-step income statement.

• Communicate your selection with your professor ( I Will Need To Know Your Selection)
• Submit the link to this filing as proof of your research. (Please Submit The Link To Me)
