Abstract

This report comprises of two main parts whose objectives are to respectively analyze the key Tesco stakeholders and the financial position of Benedict Co. in the first part the author will use Tesco annual report 2016 to identify and analyze its key stakeholders who are customers, suppliers and employees , focusing on how the company’s Environmental and Social Review and the Corporate Governance Report help Tesco demonstrate its performance in terms of its corporate and social responsibilities to two of its stakeholders. Although there are many other stakeholders that are affected by corporate decisions or serve as link between financial and non-financial objectives, the report concluded that these two stakeholders play a very significant role in helping the company measure the performance of both of its financial and non-financial objectives. On the other hand, Benedict Co.’s financial position has been evaluated using a number of financial statements/ratios. In this regard, the report has demonstrated a very weak profitability which increases the company’s liabilities and eventually put strain on its liquidity.
