Access an overview of your course project<\/a>.<\/p>\n By Saturday, February 11, 2017<\/b>, respond to the following in the Discussion Area<\/b> below:<\/p>\n This module you are learning about the four required financial statements and what each tells the user about a company. Locate three publicly traded companies\u2019 financial statements. Discuss the companies you located and describe what each of the four required financial statements tells you about the company. Also, briefly describe at least two interesting pieces of information located in the notes following the financial statements.<\/p>\n You are looking for a company\u2019s annual report. There are many reports filed by companies each year. The annual report is called the 10K. There are several ways to locate financial statements. You can go to the company\u2019s website and look for financial or investor information. You can go directly to the company\u2019s filing section of the SEC website<\/a>. You can also use the Argosy University online library resources. The library subscribes to Hoover\u2019s database, which contains companies\u2019 financial filings. This site is easier to use than the SEC website. You locate the filings by going to the Argosy University online library through the Academic Resources page under Course Home<\/b> in the left-hand navigation. Then follow these steps:<\/p>\n Click on Library -> Launch Library -> Business -> Hoover\u2019s Academic -> Continue -><\/p>\n All Categories -> type the name of your chosen company -> Financials -> SEC filings<\/p>\n Note: If there is no link to SEC filings, the company is not a public company and you may not use it for this project.<\/b><\/p>\n Be sure to cite any sources using APA style. You may use this APA Citation Helper<\/a> as a guide.<\/p>\n By the end of the module, provide substantive responses to at least two other students’ initial posts, as well as any posts to you by your instructor. Be sure to post to the Discussion Area<\/b> on two different days to meet your weekly attendance requirement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Assignment 2: Discussion\u2014Financial Statements Access an overview of your course project.
