7-1 Project Two: Comparison Analysis: Home Depot

Scenario
You chose a business during your Module Two journal assignment. Imagine you are an analyst for that business. Your business’s board of directors wants updates on the business’s financial health. Your supervisor has asked you to write a report that includes the following:

The business’s current financial health
The available financial options for improving the business
Your recommendations about which options will support the business’s financial health
Your supervisor will present your report to the business’s board of directors. The board members have different levels of knowledge about finance. You must write the report so it is easy for all board members to understand.

Directions
Create a report for your supervisor to share with the board of directors during their presentation. Use the business you chose from the Project Two Business Options List.

Use Mergent Online to find the most recent quarterly financial statements for your company. Use these statements to support your analysis during the project. Use the Project Two Financial Assumptions document for descriptions of the three financial options you will evaluate. Use the Project Two Financial Analysis Report template to complete this project.
