Questiona: Create a spreadsheet in a common size income statement
format for the most recent year and the year before. Create a % of
sales for each item next to the amounts that are given on the 10k
income statement. Show on your spreadsheet the
accounting equation for the two years. Please tell me how you

For calculating the % of sales in common size, sales is divided by sales and is always 100%, all the other revenues and expenses are calculated as the % of sales.
