    Hi Trephena, thank you for responding.

    I totally got the point you made in the last paragraph, essentially yes that is what I meant, that if a company buys more Aircraft they would require to stock inventory in the form of Fuel.

    RE the source of information, is the annual report along with a few external source sufficient?

    Hi Everyone, I submitted a project on Topic 8 last May, and was not successful, the reason for my failure was insufficient reasons of why the Ratios improved/ deteriorate. I am now planning to resubmit and have the following questions:

    1. I am choosing the Airline industry( I am allowed to use the same topic previously
    submitted)- I am unable to find sufficient external sources of information to support my
    points, however, I am able to extract from the annual report the reasons for the changes
    in my ratios, is this an accepted source or does it need to be external only?
    2. How much information do I need to include for example if I say that ” Inventory increased
    by 10%, the reason for this is because the company added 4 new aircraft to its fleet compared to PY” and I quote the annual report page. Is this the way to explain changes in each ratio?
    3. Is it okay to comment on only the major changes? Following from my example in number 2 above, if Inventory is made of Fuel and spares, and fuel increased by 15% compared to spares which only increased by 2%, would commenting on Fuel alone be acceptable?

    Please let me know what u think.

    Many thanks in advance,

    Kapil
