You will also be expected to pull on other research sources to support your analysis and to meet the requirements of the task.The table below shows the ratios for two companies. Unfortunately, the accounts clerk who computed the ratios made an error and is now unsure of the identities of the two companies. Possible candidates are: a bubble tea company, a sporting shoe and apparel retailer, and a heavy equipment manufacturer. Interpret the ratios in the table above to identify the two (2) companies and briefly discuss one (1) reason in the following format: The bubble tea company is likely to be company 1 /2 / none of them (choose one (1)).

In the question, it says "prepare comparative common-sized income statements for each company." Notice it says statements... Do I make one spreadsheet with all the particulars, ie revenue, cogs, expenses, then list all three of the companies amounts and percentages for each particular? or Do I make 3 different income statements with their own particulars, amounts and percentages to then compare them? If so do I title the income statement as "Comparative Income Statement"?
