    Here is what the OBU Infopack has to say:

    Page numbers should be included when there is a need to be more specific, for example when making a direct quotation. Use the abbreviation p. (for a single page) or pp. (more than one page):
    e.g. As Kelvin stated (1968, p.100) ‘the value of…’

    Above text is extracted from Infopack pg 58.

    Hope this helps!

    @SalahUddin

    Page number need not to be included for ratio analysis but for business analysis and quotations of directors, chairman’s review and policy references, you need to refer pages also.

    Thank You.

    Co. X has shown remarkable growth in its revenue in the last three years which was primarily due to price increases and high demand. Co X met the increasing demand by increasing its capacity by 5%. (Annual report,2012)(Annual Report,2011)(Annual report,2010)

    Co. reduced its debt by controlling cash more properly and paying the debt by increased cash. (Annual report,2011)

    2 questions
    1) the first papragraph has all the three references. Is that correct OR WHAT IS CORRECT ?
    2) After writing about every fact in the ratio analysis, telling the source again and again after every fact. Is that correct OR WHAT IS CORRECT ?
