Conclusion
I have calculated the ratio of LG and Nokia, from this I understand the strength and weakness of
both company. The main purpose of this project is to how to invest in a company. Which factors
is important for investor while investing in any company. A financial Ratio analysis also tells us
that which company is better or profitable. I take the decision of investment on following ratios
such as net profit, return on total assets, return on total equity and debt ratio. The comparison of
net profit of both company shows that LG has greater profit than Nokia. Return on total asset is
also better of LG as compare to Nokia. Return on total equity of is not good for 2009. It is clear
that LG pay more dividends to stockholders of a company.
