This assignment is about financial analysis. I am supposed to download and compare the financial&annual reports for last 3 years of two companies in the same professional field. I have chosen Pair 2- Health care industry: Ramsay Healthcare Ltd. and Sonic Healthcare Ltd. I will attach the reports for both companies here.
The due date is on 19/10/20 at 5 PM. But since I am requesting for assistance a day before, can I get it on time or will it take more than a day? If so, I will submit it late.
