學習目標
This exercise can be used in finance courses at the undergraduate level. This exercise can be used to build student understanding of financial statements and ratios for companies within various industries. Students consider what each component of a balance sheet and income statement says about the company. They also consider how companies in various sectors differ from each other and what financial ratios tell us about specific aspects of a company. For example, a service sector company would have a lower inventory than a retail company. This exercise is suitable as a discussion starter. Students are encouraged to participate and build arguments based on their concepts of how companies relate to a given industry, while creating a competitive environment within the class. In a basic finance course, this case can help students familiarize themselves with balance sheets and income statement items, and gain a thorough understanding of financial ratios.
