*Based only on the numbers provided, which Company is doing the
BEST?
*In other words, if you were an individual investor, in which Company would you invest?
EXPLAIN WHY NEEDS MORE INFO
* Based only on the numbers provided above , CC Incorporated is doing the best as it is having the highest EBIT and also the strongest financial position in term of net assets as shown by the balance sheet.
So I would go with this company . But also this is not the only criteria for selection of a company to invest. As we can also see the other two companies are having positive cash flow from assets while it is 0 for CC. Also we are not aware of the fixed financial charges . The total investment made by the company so that we can calculate the ROI, the contribution on sales .
The profit figure is not the only criteria. A lot of other things have to be considered for the decision.
