Company: Hobby Horse Assignment: Mini case Chapter: 4 Financial Ratios
Summary Burchetts Green had enjoyed the bank training course and now he is good to be starting his first real job in the corporate leading group. One morning Greens boss handed him a set of financial statements for the Hobby Horse Company Inc (HH). The company HH has run into some rough weather recently, and Green was asked to go down there that afternoon and see what was happening. Before he was asked to go, he had to take a look at some financial statements and see what kind problems there were. This was Greens chance to use the knowledge he acquired during the training course to make a real impact. Mr. Green was familiar with the HH store. To alleviate these problems Mr. Green decided to start with a 6-year summary of HH’s financial statements such the balance sheet and income statement.
