    I am writing a research on topic 8 and I am studying telecommunication companies in Malawi. I have managed to download the financial statement for the local company which is listed company. Now, I am struggling to find the comparator. I have decided to download the financial statements on a mobile company is south Africa. Now here are my question:

    Is it acceptable to use a multinational company as a comparator?
    If so, how do you conduct the analysis and evaluation because some of the subsidiaries might be operating from different environment?

    Please help!!!!

    Thanks for the quick response. Of course I have direct access to the organization’s information like the budgets and variance but what I mainly wanted was how to go about with the analysis and evaluation.

    Can I have anyone from this forum who passed topic 1. I am intending to submit a project on topic 1 and I need guidance on how to tackle the topic.

    Is it acceptable to use a comparator company from a different country? I have had difficulty finding a company in Malawi especially in the telecommunications industry. The others are not listed on the stock exchange and hence refused to take part in the research.

    Please help
