Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Answer: MSN Money Central at moneycentral.msn.co m/investor/home.asp is another site with plenty of financial information. By typing in the company's ticker symbol, you can access information such as company reports, SEC filings, earnings estimates, financial results, insider trading, and ownership. By clicking on the financial results topic, you can get the company's balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement for the past five years. The latter makes it superior to the data given at yahoo.finance.com by having two more years of financial information from the three primary financial statements.
