Why did we create this program?Seeing we both are taking GSBA 510 “Financial

analysis” we realized that all companies produce annual reports at the end of the year and these reports have to be analyzed in order understand them.

This program reads input that is gathered from these reports and calculates the required ratios to analyze its performance and compare it to other companies and to industry standards.

Who will use this program?

1- Students taking GSBA 510.2- Current Investors / Prospective

Investors.3- Financial analysts.
