Managerial Accounting: Key Performance Indicators and Corporate Social Responsibility Analysis
The objective of this assignment is to analyze and discuss a company′s performance using some of the key performance indicators covered in this class as well as evaluating their corporate social responsibility initiatives.
Instructions: Create a narrated and camera-on PowerPoint presentation with a minimum duration of 4 minutes and a maximum duration of 5 minutes. Use concise and visually appealing slides to present your six (6) key performance indicator analysis, calculations, corporate social responsibility assessment, and recommendations.
KPI stands for key performance indicators. These can be several things and companies often talk about the metrics they use to help determine their performance in their Annual Reports. For this assignment I left it up to you to determine what these could be (examples are things such as year to year sales, or year to year profits, or company sales compared with industry standards, etc,). In our class we learned about a lot of different performance indicators. Choose any 6 that you like.
Use appropriate headings, subheadings, and references to support your analysis. Ensure the presentation flows logically and includes key points from each section. Practice the narration to ensure clarity, coherence, and adherence to the time limit.
Company Annual Reports can be found on company websites under Investor Relations or just Google the company you’re interested in along with the words Annual Report (example: BMW Annual Report). Links to an external site.
