A corporation can choose its own year-end (Fiscal Year).
1. Pick publicly traded AMERICAN company - based in the USA. The company must NOT be a subsidiary to another company. If you pick a foreign company or a company that is a subsidiary to another company, you will receive ZERO credit on this entire assignment.
2. What is the company's latest actual year end (give the specific date)? Do not give a year end in the future. Example: Latest year end of company XYZXABC is 09/30/2021....this would be impossible as the date is in the future.
3. Why do you think the company picked that date for its year-end?
4. Attach the company’s most recent Balance Sheet to your discussion post (PDF, screen shot or similar). If you cannot find the company’s latest Balance Sheet, pick a different company. (There are over 2000 publicly traded American companies)
***Please exclude the following companies: Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Starbucks, Tesla, Facebook, Macys, Snap and Alphabet/Google***
