Explanation / Answer

Part a:

The organization selected for the purpose is Coca-Cola Limited. The financial statements provided on the website of the company at the investor section contains all necessary information to assess the financial position and performance of the company. Thus, the information contained in the financial statements are complete.

The financial statements contained only financial information of past thus, only the financial reports are not sufficient for the investors to decide whether to invest in the company or not.

The investors require information about the future endeavours of the company as well as any new projects that the company is going to invest in the future. Such additional information will help the investors in deciding whether to invest in the company or not.

Part b:

As per the information provided in the website of the brokerage firm, E-trade, there is no primary difference in the information provided in the website of the brokerage firm and the information provided by the company in its website.

However, the extent of information about the company in its website is much more vast and detailed than the information provided in the brokerage website about the company.

The information in the financial reports is certainly detailed to assess the financial performance and position of the company however, investors need other information along with such financial information to take decision about investing or not in the company.

Part c:

Information in Investment rating is quite different from the investment in the websites of the company and the broker firm. The information in the investment rating is more specific and direct with no elaborate explanation about the company. It is more about rating as to the return that the investors should expect from investing in the company than about the financial performance and position of the company.

No, the information provided in the Investment rating is not sufficiently detailed to take the decision about investing in the shares of the company. The investment in the shares require detailed information about the company past, present as well as expected future performance of the company however, there is no detailed information about the company in this website.

Part d:

Information is processed data whereas data is simply unprocessed figures. The data provides no directive information whereas information provides important information about the organization. Investors generally look to get information to decide whether to invest in a company or not.
