On the basis of trade receivables , inventories, fixed assets, payables , income and the ratio of inventory turns , it seems that Company A is more important than company B. Company A received so little a budget for research and development more important. Company B would be another commercial basis by a diverse mass production sold in supermarkets .
First on trade receivables , we see that Company A owns a third more than Company B ( 12% A and 8% B). This difference can be explained by the fact that pharmaceutical products are sold in supermarkets B .

In view of receivables , inventories , property , profits, liquidity, and capital taxes , it seems that Company C is more concerned with quality at the lowest cost thanks to outsourcing. Conversely Company D , would be extended to the national level through the use of a great brand and extensive distribution network target.
On trade receivables , we note that the company holds more than D claims that company C (4% for C and 12% D or 3 times ) .

It has a still larger stock consisting of detail parts but these are shorter than the machines finished by now F because they are finite objects . Thus, the two entities have a stock but comparable strategy E allows them to have a period of rotation of lower stocks.
Finally, we can notice a deficiency within receivable turnover of the company E where less important than the company...
