The accountant has given you the company’s income statement and balance sheet and also the following data for the industry. The problem is that McDonough is in dollars and the Industry Average is in percentages. To complete the analysis you will need to convert McDonoughs dollar amounts to percentages.

    If this is Accounting 212, I will assume you've taken lower division courses. If you don't have any idea how to approach this, you need to speak with your professor. That's what teachers are there for.

    I can help, but this site works like this: you attempt to do your homework and we help you from there. We won't do your homework for you.
