Create first worksheet for comparing Profit/ Loss in Rows vs Expenses in Columns, with Company under colour and Sum(Revenues) under size. Create second worksheet to compare Operating Expenses in rows vs Revenues in columns, with Company under colours, measure values in size and measure names under shape. Create third worksheet to compare Liabilities in rows vs Assets in columns, with Company under colours and Retained Earning in size. Create fourth worksheet to compare Liabilities in rows vs Assets in columns, with Company under colours and Profit/Loss in size. Put all the four worksheet into a dashboard for understanding of how the variables Revenues, Operating Expenses, Profit/Loss of the companies performed over the years. The worksheets on Assets, Labilities, Retained Earning and Profit/Loss will allow an investor to understand a company abilities to repay all its’ liabilities. In addition, the worksheet also reflects the past performance and yearly performance of the company and make a judgement call on the potential of investing in the company.
