Each student should choose a company that is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) and find an annual report for the 2016/2017 financial year. Remember to use a complete annual report, not a concise financial report or a half-year financial report.
To ensure your choice of a company does not duplicate one already chosen by another student, they will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. You may reserve a company by adding a post on ‘Discussion Board’ under ‘Reserve a company here’. Write the name of the chosen company in the description line of your post. If you add the company name in the message and NOT in the description line, then the reservation is void because it will not be readily visible to others.
