Mr. Banner has recently contacted your accounting professor to find a replacement for his general manager and controller who was fired recently. Due to your interest, intelligence and dedication, your professor has recommended you.

In your first interview, Mr. Banner gave you a copy of the Banner Company's last year balance sheet (Appendix A) and income statement (Appendix B) and asked your opinion about his company.

REQUIREMENTS
