Profit Loss
With any business, the bottom line is to find whether the company is profitable or if it depreciating in value. In this documentation, it will be discussed the profits and losses for Riordan Manufacturing for the fiscal years of 2010 and 2011. For the most part Riordan Manufacturing saw positive profits in most aspects. Those aspects are assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity.
For the fiscal year of 2010 the total assets were $34,825,498 and the fiscal year for 2011 the total assets were $47,409,137, which is a positive in total assets of $12,583,639 from one year to the next.
