For this 6-8 page Final Project you will create

1) the Financial Highlights
2) the Presidents Letter to the Stockholders
3) the Management Discussion and Analysis reports that would be contained in a company's annual report to the shareholders.


The Final Project will be based on the Rainbow Paint Company Financial Statements and the ratios that you compute as practice.

Companies normally issue these reports to the stockholders and other interested parties. These reports summarize the company's operating activities for the past year and plans for the future.

There are many variations in the order and form for presenting the major sections of the annual report. You should conduct independent research to find a variety of corporate annual reports to use as guides in the preparation of your Unit 9 Project.

In the Final Project, you will use information gained from the weekly Assignments, the "Paint Company" Review/Practice data, along with information obtained through research.

These reports will be completed in Microsoft Word; References will be required - therefore, it is important that you use a proper title page and correct reference list formatting.

You will see that they can be very long and very complex. However, your Assignment should focus on the three aspects required for the Final Project.
