NEED THIS IN AN HOUR

As a first step to your SEC 10K project, you will select a publicly traded U.S. corporation (Fortune 500 company) you would like to study this semester and post a response to this discussion to obtain permission.  See below for the criteria for the company and the posting requirement for this week (Week 1):

1. Post the name of the corporation, the stock market where it is traded, and its ticker symbol in the Subject line when you respond to this posting (as a new thread) and all other postings related to this project.  Only 1 student per company -- if you see your prospective company already listed, please choose another company.  It must be a manufacturing company -- an entity that derives its products for sale, thereby revenue, through the direct manufacture of those products.  ***It must produce something.  I will respond with an approval during Week 1, so that you may proceed with the project.  

For example:

• Exxon Mobile; NYSE: XOM

2. State (briefly) why you want to study this corporation.

3. Provide a direct link to your corporation's SEC 10K report for the most recent year.  A direct link is a hyper link that takes you directly to a Website where the SEC 10K report is located.  For example, this is the direct link to the 2013 SEC 10K report for Apple, Inc.  Ensure you locate the most recent SEC 10K report.
