Take careful note of the instructions below. Be sure that,
including the
title page, you have maximum 6 PPT slides. Use few words on the slide ...
just the point (get it --- "power point"!) on the slide. Graphs and Charts
may be used if they help. You can add a few sentences and your computations
in the notes area below your slide.
Be sure that the subject line is the name of your company.
It is highly recommended that you use the information from the 10-K" topics
in the discussion as the base for your paper and presentation. You of
course, may use additional material to supplement the info from the real
company topics.
You should create a Power Point presentation file. Six (6) slides maximum
on your SEC 10-K company with key points from your paper. Use bullet points.
Do not copy and paste paragraphs from your paper. You should have a title
page with the name of your company and the fiscal period covered by the SEC
10-K. If you used other sources, you would include them in the works cited
list - which should be in the notes area of your last slide. Again, you are
only required to use the textbook and the SEC 10-K report. But if you do use
other resources and include material from those resources in your work, you
need to include it on the works cited list for the Power Point presentation.

I expect the following - this lets you know exactly what's expected:
slide 1 - Cover page should include Title information including Company name
- time period covered - student's name and date of presentation
Remaining slides should include the following (more than one of the
following will need to be presented on a single slide - but that's ok):
.About the company
.Working capital
.Current Ratio
.Profitability - ie, Net Income ratios
.Receivables ratios
.Inventory ratios
.Total Asset ratios
.Points on Company's Internal Controls and most recent Audit
.If space available - CEO compensation
BEST PRACTICES - [1] be sure to present comparative data (over the last 3
years) - Be sure that your graph/table reads from left to right - meaning
that the older data is on the left side and the more recent data is to the
right, [2] follow formatting for powerful presentations (see my other post);
[3] be creative!; [4] make use of the notes space below the slide for
computations, comments, references etc; [3] use graphs.

Here is a sample power point presentation. It has some good points and it
has some flaws. Sample PPT
1.The cover page is contains requisite information, but should also include
the student's name and date presented.
2.Agenda is not necessary - wastes a PPT slide - better to use the first
slide to highlight a little about the company - where its headquartered, how
it makes money etc
3.Working Capital & Current Ratio slide - highlights changes in WC and CR.
Note that the computations are included in the notes section below the
slide.
4.Profitability slide highlights the changes over the past 3 years. Could
have also included the Profitability to net sales ratio over the 3 years had
there been less commentary in the slide itself. Again, note that the
computations and some explanation are included in the notes below the slide.
5.Account Receivables and Asset Turnover Ratio - The points are good but
wordy on slide itself
6.The CEO compensation slide - should not have been included and other
important topics left off.
FLAWS
.background is distracting and makes text hard to read in places
.Missed some important topics (eg. Inventory turnover; Days' sales in
inventory - chapter 6 - internal controls/audit)
OTHER THINGS
.Sometimes a picture is worth 1,000 words - use graphs to illustrate ...
computations and explanations can be in the notes section.
.Include your citations/bibliography in the notes below the first slide.
