However, between 2002 and 2003 all three ratios take an even bigger down turn. This suggests to me that the common factor of these ratios, net income, has taken a sudden impact. Meanwhile, the one ratio that has held steady and even grew in 2003 was total asset turnover.…

    I. Analyze the Four-Year Report of The Market Ratios Earnings per share measures how many dollars of net income the company has. The ESP needs to be higher because it shows a sign of higher earnings, strong financial position, and a reliable company to invest money. Earnings per share leads to price-earnings ratio which measures its current share price relative to its price-share earnings (Investopedia). Looking at Delta’s four-years price-earnings ratio, it indicates 2012 and 2013 had a low price-earnings ratio because the company is below 12 which means their future earnings are at risk or likely to grow slows.

    History Facebook is a well-known social media platform that has worked its way into our daily lives as a source of keeping in contact with our friends, family, co-workers, and even enemies.
