Financial Statements Analysis

Directions

For the Starbucks company!!!!!

Using the Annual Report of your selected company answer the following questions in the Discussion:

• What is the breakdown of the company’s current liabilities at year end?
• Calculate the company’s times-interest-earned ratio for the year end. What does this tell you about the company?
• How much was the company’s long-term debt at year end?
• Compute the company’s debt to equity ratio at year end. How does it  compare to the industry? What does this tell you about the company?

Post the name of your selected company and the link to the statement  with your discussion post.  You may use a service such as Yahoo Finance  to help research industry averages.  The notes to the financial  statements will also be of use in answering the discussion questions.   For many of the ratios in the discussion, you will need 2-3 years’ worth  of financial data.
