1. Obtain the most recent Annual Report of a U.S. publicly-traded corporation.

You may choose any industry(ies) as long as the company you choose has inventory and their income statement shows cost of goods sold. As a matter of fact most large companies operate in more than one industry. The largest segment of your company should not be in financial or insurance services. The reason for this is that financial ratios etc. are different for financial services. Each student must choose a different company. A list of suggested companies will be passed around in class. If the company you want is not on the list then write that company's name at the bottom of the list with your name next to it.

The report can be a professionally printed version or a downloaded versions from the internet, but it should contain a complete set of audited financial statements and notes plus interim (quarterly) information.

To obtain the annual report you may contact the company by phone, e-mail or regular mail and ask them to send you one. However, in many cases easier to get a copy off the internet. After locating the website of the company you will have to find the link to their financial information. Often this link is found by clicking on "Investor Relations" .

2. You will also need stock market information about your company. Places to get stock market information are through Yahoo or other major search engines. You may need SEC information, which can be obtained through EDGAR.
