Summary – Chapter 3, Part 2 Homework

It looks like a lot, but its not.. it\’s just really spread out

You will be using the Financial Statement Analysis Template that you started on in Case 1.2 so you need to locate that on your computer. You will also be using the 2013 Form 10-K for Applied Materials which you can locate at this link: 

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/6951/000000695113000044/amat10272013-10kdoc.htm

(a) Read the instructions above regarding how to use the template. Then enter the appropriate information for each of the income statement items (Note: When inputting restructuring charges and impairments the template requires a positive number be input. Since Applied Materials has a negative amount for 2011, this will need to be included in the \”Other operating expenses\” line on the template.) There are some lines listed on the template that you will not find any information for Applied Materials such as Purchased In-Process R & D and there may not be information for a particular year. Don\’t enter any information for these even a zero just leave them blank. There are some lines that will require you to add one or more amounts together but there are no multiple sources of revenue and cost of goods sold so do not enter any information for these at the bottom of the worksheet. When you have finished inputting the data, review the income as indicated in the instructions above to make sure there are no red blocks indicating that your numbers do not match the cover sheet information you input from the Chapter 1 problem. Make any necessary corrections before printing out both your input and the common-size income statement that the template automatically creates for you.  You will be entering information from the income statement and common-size income statement into the fill-in-the-blank questions.

(b) You will need to answer some multiple choice questions to analyze the income statement and common-size income statement information including using the Management Discussion and Analysis section of the Form 10-K so make sure you have it available for this portion.

Here is the fill in the blank for the quiz:
