In Google, type in: Amazon.com, Inc. -
Annual reports, proxies and shareholder
Upon opening this link, you will have access to
a tremendous amount of information covering Amazon, including the
company’s 2020 annual report and the annual letter to shareholders
from Mr. Bezos.
Invest time reviewing/going through the 2020
annual report, and prepare a summary list noting areas within the
report, where the accounting items listed on the next page have
been reported and/or disclosed. Indicate their dollar amounts when
applicable.
List as many areas as you can, therefore, it’s
important that you spend time going through the entire annual
report document.
When I say the “entire document”, it is very
lengthy, therefore I do not mean you are required to read it word
for word. Instead, you should spend time going through it, diving a
little deeper into areas that catch your attention.
This is intended be a fun and informative
project by having you step away from your textbook and see
firsthand, the amazing amount of financial information and
disclosures required by a real-world company that is publicly owned
and traded in the highly regulated stock market.
You will receive 25 add back points by
demonstrating from your written comments and observations, that you
took the time to dive into to the annual report document. The whole
idea here, is to get you out of the textbook for a short-time and
into a real-world company’s financial matters.
