Conclusion
I have calculated the ratio of LG and Nokia from this i understands
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 companies it 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 LGpay more dividends to
stockholders of a company.
