1. Prepare a written analysis of the financial ratios resulting from the Week 2 eVal Financial Forecast of the selected company. This must include trend analysis (historical and projected) and comparative analysis (cross-sectional or industry). The analysis needs to examine strengths and weaknesses revealed by the data. Remember, in a written ratio analysis the actual ratio data need to be included in the written analysis in addition to presentation in any accompanying tables or figures (graphs).
(The company is Kohl's and I attached the financial forecast eval that was submitted previously. Please take a look at the excel and let me know if you have any problems)
