Evaluation of Corporate Performance
For the Final Paper, you will apply the concepts learned in class to an analysis
of a company using data from its annual report. Using the concepts from this
course, you will analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the company. You will
then write a report either recommending or not recommending purchase of the
company stock.

Once you are in the Library, select “Find Articles and More” in the top menu

database. For help with using Mergent, use “Mergent Online Quick Tips.”
