ACCT-221 10-K Project Instructions

Overview

As an analyst for a large U.S. multinational corporation, you are assigned to examine a possible acquisition candidate, completing an initial search and review. Your supervisor is a member of the Controller’s team. The Controller reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Your work may be presented to various audiences, so professionalism is essential in all deliverables you create. As you review historical financial statements, you cannot conclude if this company is a good investment.

  • Select a publicly traded company.
  • The company must have Accounts Receivable and Inventory. You must select a retail or manufacturing company.
  • By visiting and searching the SEC EDGAR system, you must research and secure the SEC 10-K Annual Report for the most recent year.
  • Save the 10-K document to your computer for access. Please do not print this file, as the report is usually 100 pages or more.
  • Use the selected company in the discussion postings throughout the semester. The discussion questions are designed to help you build your report and presentation content.
  • Reading an SEC 10-K Report: The following link will access the SEC’s document: How to Read an SEC 10-K Report. http://www.sec.gov/answers/reada10k.htm 

Course Learning Objective Assessed: Identify and communicate with accounting and financial information users to facilitate analytical decision-making.

Report Requirements

Report Content 

  • Post the name of your desired company in the Week 1 SEC 10-K Project discussion for your instructor’s approval. Your post must answer all parts of the discussion.
  • Each student must select a different company, so read the company names chosen by classmates. The company must be a publicly-traded company.

Report Layout

This page requirement includes data visualization (charts and graphs) that you create, but the report should be primarily your written analysis.
  • Page count does not include a title page, tables, exhibits, or reference list.
  • Include a title page (include your name on the title page). The report must consist of headings such as Accounts Receivable and Inventory (topics from the textbook); other examples would be Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and the Statement of Shareholders’ Equity.
  • Include a brief introduction of your company and a conclusion/summary at the end. Most of your report should include accounting topics in weeks one through five.
  • Your report must cover the Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows, and Critical Audit Matters.
  • You are to compare current and prior year statements and what changed. Do not cut and paste anything into the body of your report.

PowerPoint Presentation

  • You must prepare a PowerPoint draft and post it to Peer-Review of SEC 10-K Project discussion.
  • Include data and an analysis of the data with your commentary. Tell the story as you learn from reading the financial statements.
