EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The primary purpose of this report is to identify and analyze the two dominant
companies in the soft drink industry and determine the strongest performer as an
investment opportunity. Coca-Cola and PepsiCo have been competing in the soft
drink sector for over a century and both companies enjoy a high degree of brand
consciousness globally. Coca-Cola has, until recently, outpaced its number two rival
considerably, both in the .!. and overseas. " will compare the two companies using
the following criteria# $a% comparative statistics $b% key ratios, and $c% the weighted
average cost of capital $&'CC%.
(or the purpose of my report, all relevant financial data on both Coca-Cola and
PepsiCo was derived from the reliable )ahoo (inance and *orningstar website and
the accompanying +,-k reports. Coca-Cola-s revenues have been generally outpaced
by PepsiCo-s revenues with notable e.ception in /,,, when both companies
approached parity in terms of revenue. The (inancial Times reveals that Coca-Cola
has made minimal gains which may be attributed to the slow growth in the soft drink
sector. Coca-Cola-s income is derived from 0,1 of its soft drink products, while
PepsiCo-s soft drinks are responsible for only /,1 of its income. Clearly, PepsiCo-s
wide range of snack products serves to cushion the company from changing consumer
preferences. This is illustrated by the e.plosive growth of the bottled water sector-a
lucrative sector for both companies $i.e., Coca-Cola-s 2asani and PepsiCo-s
'3ua(ina%. Consumers are 3uickly drawing a connection between high-fructose corn
syrup beverages $e.g., most soft drinks% and obesity and are gradually shying away
from them.
The combined market share of PepsiCo-s soft drink brands increased to 45.+1 in early
/,,6, outpacing Coca-Cola for the first time since Pepsi entered Thailand 6/ years
ago. Thailand is one of a handful of world markets where Pepsi is ahead of Coke in
cola sales alone $Thai Press 7eports, /,,8%. 7ecently, PepsiCo announced its plans to
boost its presence in the Turkish market, with the goal of overtaking Coca-Cola. "n
order to achieve this goal, the company will invest 9:, to 94, million a year to
strengthen its presence. PepsiCo has the largest market share in the *iddle ;astern
region, but faces strong competition in Turkey from Coca-Cola and lker, producer
of Cola Turka.

INTRODUCTION
The (*C< sector
represents consumer goods re3uired for daily or fre3uent use. The main segments of
this sector are personal care $oral care, hair care, soaps, cosmetics, toiletries%,
household care $fabric wash and household cleaners%, branded and packaged food,
beverages $health beverages, soft drinks, staples, cereals, dairy products, chocolates,
bakery products% and tobacco.
The "ndian (*C< sector is an important contributor to the country-s <2P. "t is the
fourth largest sector in the economy and is responsible for 61 of the total factory
employment in "ndia. The industry also creates employment for : m people in
downstream activities, much of which is disbursed in small towns and rural "ndia.
This industry has witnessed strong growth in the past decade. This has been due to
liberalization, urbanization, increase in the disposable incomes and altered lifestyle.
(urthermore, the boom has also been fuelled by the reduction in e.cise duties, de-
reservation from the small-scale sector and the concerted efforts of personal care
companies to attract the burgeoning affluent segment in the middle-class through
product and packaging innovations.
nlike the perception that the (*C< sector is a producer of lu.ury items targeted at
the elite, in reality, the sector meets the every day needs of the masses. The lower-
middle income group accounts for over =,1 of the sector-s sales. 7ural markets
account for 6=1 of the total domestic (*C< demand.
*any of the global (*C< majors have been present in the country for many decades.
>ut in the last ten years, many of the smaller rung "ndian (*C< companies have
gained in scale. 's a result, the unorganized and regional players have witnessed
erosion in market share.
/
History of FMCG in India
"n "ndia, companies like "TC, ?@@, Colgate, Cadbury and Aestle have been a
dominant force in the (*C< sector well supported by relatively less competition and
high entry barriers $import duty was high%. These companies were, therefore, able to
charge a premium for their products. "n this conte.t, the margins were also on the
higher side. &ith the gradual opening up of the economy over the last decade, (*C<
companies have been forced to fight for a market share. "n the process, margins have
been compromised, more so in the last si. years $(*C< sector witnessed decline in
demand.
Current Senario
The growth potential for (*C< companies looks promising over the long-
term horizon, as the per-capita consumption of almost all products in the country is
amongst the lowest in the world. 's per the Consumer !urvey by B!'-Technopak, of
the total consumption e.penditure, almost 4,1 and 01 was accounted by groceries
and personal care products respectively. 7apid urbanization, increased literacy and
rising per capita income are the key growth drivers for the sector. 'round 461 of the
population in "ndia is below /, years of age and the proportion of the young
population is e.pected to increase in the ne.t five years. 'spiration levels in this age
group have been fuelled by greater media e.posure, unleashing a latent demand with
more money and a new mindset. "n this backdrop, industry estimates suggest that the
industry could triple in value by /,+6 $by some estimates, the industry could double
in size by /,+,%.
"n our view, testing times for the (*C< sector are over and driving rural penetration
will be the key going forward. 2ue to infrastructure constraints $this influences the
cost-effectiveness of the supply chain%, companies were unable to grow faster.
'lthough companies like ?@@ and "TC have dedicated initiatives targeted at the rural
market, these are still at a relatively nascent stage.

:
The bottlenecks of the conventional distribution system are likely to be removed once
organized retailing gains in scale. Currently, organized retailing accounts for just :1
of total retail sales and is likely to touch +,1 over the ne.t :-6 years. "n our view,
organized retailing results in discounted prices, forced-buying by offering many
choices and also opens up new avenues for growth for the (*C< sector. <iven the
aggressive e.pansion plans of players like Pantaloon, Trent, !hopperCs !top and
!hoprite, we are confident that the (*C< sector has a bright future.
!ud"et Measures to #ro$ote FMCG Setor
D /1 education cess corporation ta., e.cise duties and custom duties
D Concessional rate of 61 custom duty on tea and coffee plantation machinery
!ud"et I$%at
The education cess will add marginally to the ta. burden of all (*C< companies
The dividend distribution ta. on debt funds is likely to adversely effect the other
income components of companies like >ritannia, Aestle and ?@@ The measure to
abolish e.cise duty on dairy machinery is a positive for companies like Aestle
Concessional rate for tea and coffee plantation machinery is a positive for Tata Tea,
?@@, Tata Coffee and other such companies 2uty reduction in food grade he.ane will
have a marginally positive impact on companies like *arico and ?@@ 'rea specific
e.cise e.emptions for Aorth ;ast, EFB, ?imachal Pradesh will continue to encourage
(*C< companies to relocate to these areas.
"ndia offers a large and growing market of + billion people of which :,, million are
middle class consumers. "ndia offers a vibrant market of youth and vigor with 641 of
population below the age of /6 years. These young people work harder, earn more,
spend more and demand more from the market, making "ndia a dynamic and
aspirational society. 2omestic demand is e.pected to double over the ten-year period
from +555 to /,,0. The number of households with Ghigh incomeG is e.pected to
increase by =,1 in the ne.t four years to 44 million households.

"ndia is rated as the fifth most attractive emerging retail market. "t has been
ranked second in a <lobal 7etail 2evelopment "nde. of :, developing countries
drawn up by ' T Bearney. '.T. Bearney has estimated "ndia-s total retail market at
9/,/.= billion, is e.pected to grow at a compounded :,r6 per cent over the ne.t five
4
years. The share of modern retail is likely to grow from its current / per cent to +6-/,
percent over the ne.t decade, analysts feel.
The "ndian (*C< sector is the fourth largest sector in the economy with a
total market size in e.cess of !9 +:.+ billion. The (*C< market is set to treble !9
::.4 billion in /,+6. Penetration level as well as per capita consumption in most
product categories like jams, toothpaste, skin care, hair wash etc in "ndia is low
indicating the untapped market potential. >urgeoning "ndian population, particularly
the middle class and the rural segments, presents an opportunity to makers of branded
products to convert consumers to branded products.
"ndia is one of the worldCs largest producers for a number of (*C< products
but its (*C< e.ports are languishing at around 7s +,,,, crore only. There is
significant potential for increasing e.ports but there are certain factors inhibiting this.
!mall-scale sector reservations limit ability to invest in technology and 3uality up
gradation to achieve economies of scale. *oreover, lower volume of higher value
added products reduce scope for e.port to developing countries.
The (*C< sector has traditionally grown at a very fast rate and has generally
out performed the rest of the industry. Hver the last one year, however the rate of
growth has slowed down and the sector has recorded sales growth of just five per cent
in the last four 3uarters.
The outlook in the short term does not appear to be very positive for the
sector. 7ural demand is on the decline and the Centre for *onitoring "ndian ;conomy
$C*";% has already downscaled its projection for agriculture growth in the current
fiscal. Poor monsoon in some states, too, is unlikely to help matters. *oreover, the
general slowdown in the economy is also likely to have an adverse impact on
disposable income and purchasing power as a whole. The growth of imports
constitutes another problem area and while so far imports in this sector have been
confined to the premium segment, (*C< companies estimate they have already
cornered a four to si. per cent market share. The high burden of local ta.es is another
reason attributed for the slowdown in the industry 't the same time, the long term
outlook for revenue growth is positive. <ive the large market and the re3uirement for
continuous repurchase of these products.

COCACO+A
HISTORY OF COCA CO+A
Coca-Cola originated as a soda fountain beverage in +00= selling for five cents a
glass. ;arly growth was impressive, but it was only when a strong bottling system
developed that Coca-Cola became the world-famous brand it is today.
(,-. / A $odest start for a !o*d Idea
"n a candy store in Jicksburg, *ississippi, brisk sales of the new fountain beverage
called Coca-Cola impressed the store-s owner, Eoseph '. >iedenharn. ?e began
bottling Coca-Cola to sell, using a common glass bottle called a ?utchinson.
>iedenharn sent a case to 'sa <riggs Candler, who owned the Company. Candler
thanked him but took no action. Hne of his nephews already had urged that Coca-Cola
be bottled, but Candler focused on fountain sales.
(,-- T)e first 0ott*in" a"ree$ent
Two young attorneys from Chattanooga, Tennessee
believed they could build a business around bottling Coca-
Cola. "n a meeting with Candler, >enjamin (. Thomas and
Eoseph >. &hitehead obtained e.clusive rights to bottle
Coca-Cola across most of the nited !tates $specifically e.cluding Jicksburg% -- for
the sum of one dollar. ' third Chattanooga lawyer, Eohn T. @upton, soon joined their
venture.
(-112(-1- 3 Ra%id "ro4t)
The three pioneer bottlers divided the country into territories and
sold bottling rights to local entrepreneurs. Their efforts were
boosted by major progress in bottling technology, which
improved efficiency and product 3uality. >y +5,5, nearly 4,,
Coca-Cola bottling plants were operating, most of them family-owned businesses.
!ome were open only during hot-weather months when demand was high.

(-(5 3 !irt) of t)e ontour 0ott*e
>ottlers worried that the straight-sided bottle for Coca-Cola was
easily confused with imitators. ' group representing the Company
and bottlers asked glass manufacturers to offer ideas for a distinctive
bottle. ' design from the 7oot <lass Company of Terre ?aute,
"ndiana won enthusiastic approval in +5+6 and was introduced in
+5+=. The contour bottle became one of the few packages ever

'ssets are the most important part of the company it provides resources to the
company. CompanyCs position can be predicted by the assets holding capacity. larger
the capacity ,stronger the position of the company. assets includes cash receivables,

from the projected data of +, the assets of Pepsi should be increased by /1 but coca
cola will increase its assets more 81 in /,+,.cocacola is having larger assets than
Pepsi so we can say that coca cola is very larger firm than Pepsi. Comparing the cash
and cash e3uivalents Coca-Cola is generating higher cash than Pepsi. PepsiCs cash
generation is very small and it will take long time to increase because it is almost 4
times lesser than of Coca-Cola. Hther assets including inventory, goodwill, intangible

"tCs important to note here that neither PepsiCo nor Coca-Cola issue preferred stock,
so that component was not utilized in the &'CC computation. ' surprising discovery
was the low ta. rate for both of these corporations# /=1 for PepsiCo and //1 for
Coca-Cola. This may be attributed to lower ta. rates overseas, where these companies
derive a significant portion of their revenues from.
PepsiCoCs lower &'CC $5.+:61% versus Coca-ColaCs $5.051% gives it greater
latitude in selecting investment projects. PepsiCoCs lower &'CC will also result in
greater valuation for its stock. This has happened within the last +, years# "ts stock

Coca-Cola, meanwhile, seems to have suffered a reversal of fortune in the same time

Conclusion and 7ecommendation
*y research reveals that the strongest candidate as an investment opportunity is
PepsiCo. The &'CC computation made the choice easier. Aevertheless, Coca-Cola is
a strong performer and is poised for a comeback. PepsiCo cannot rest on its laurels, if
it neglects any aspect of its core business it is bound to be overtaken by its eternal

RATIO ANA+YSIS
Finania* Ratios
(inancial ratios are useful indicators of a firm-s performance and financial situation.
*ost ratios can be calculated from information provided by the financial statements.
(inancial ratios can be used to analyze trends and to compare the firm-s financials to
those of other firms. "n some cases, ratio analysis can predict future bankruptcy.
(inancial ratios can be classified according to the information they provide. The
following types of ratios fre3uently are used#
@i3uidity ratios
'sset turnover ratios
(inancial leverage ratios
Profitability ratios
2ividend policy ratios
+iCuidity Ratios
Liquidity ratios provide information about a firm-s ability to meet its short-term
financial obligations. They are of particular interest to those e.tending short-term
credit to the firm. Two fre3uently-used li3uidity ratios are the current ratio $or
working capital ratio% and the quick ratio.
The current ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities#
Current Ratio
@
Current Assets
Current +ia0i*ities
!hort-term creditors prefer a high current ratio since it reduces their risk. !hareholders
may prefer a lower current ratio so that more of the firm-s assets are working to grow
the business. Typical values for the current ratio vary by firm and industry. (or
e.ample, firms in cyclical industries may maintain a higher current ratio in order to
remain solvent during downturns.
Hne drawback of the current ratio is that inventory may include many items that are
difficult to li3uidate 3uickly and that have uncertain li3uidation values. The 3uick
ratio is an alternative measure of li3uidity that does not include inventory in the
current assets. The 3uick ratio is defined as follows#
Dui8 Ratio
@
Current Assets 2 In7entory
4/
Current +ia0i*ities
The current assets used in the 3uick ratio are cash, accounts receivable, and notes
receivable. These assets essentially are current assets less inventory. The 3uick ratio
often is referred to as the acid test.
(inally, the cash ratio is the most conservative li3uidity ratio. "t e.cludes all current
assets e.cept the most li3uid# cash and cash e3uivalents. The cash ratio is defined as
follows#
Cas) Ratio
@
Cas) E Mar8eta0*e Seurities
Current +ia0i*ities
The cash ratio is an indication of the firm-s ability to pay off its current liabilities if for
some reason immediate payment were demanded.
Asset Turno7er Ratios
'sset turnover ratios indicate of how efficiently the firm utilizes its assets. They
sometimes are referred to as efficiency ratios, asset utilization ratios, or asset
management ratios. Two commonly used asset turnover ratios are receivables
turnover and inventory turnover.
7eceivables turnover is an indication of how 3uickly the firm collects its accounts
receivables and is defined as follows#

Annua* Credit Sa*es
Aounts Reei7a0*e
The receivables turnover often is reported in terms of the number of days that credit
sales remain in accounts receivable before they are collected. This number is known
as the collection period. "t is the accounts receivable balance divided by the average
daily credit sales, calculated as follows#

(inancial leverage ratios provide an indication of the long-term solvency of the firm.
nlike li3uidity ratios that are concerned with short-term assets and liabilities,
financial leverage ratios measure the e.tent to which the firm is using long term debt.
The debt ratio is defined as total debt divided by total assets#

2ebt ratios depend on the classification of long-term leases and on the classification
of some items as long-term debt or e3uity.
The times interest earned ratio indicates how well the firm-s earnings can cover the
interest payments on its debt. This ratio also is known as the interest coverage and is

Profitability ratios offer several different measures of the success of the firm at
generating profits.

The gross profit margin is a measure of the gross profit earned on sales. The gross
profit margin considers the firm-s cost of goods sold, but does not include other costs.

2ividend policy ratios provide insight into the dividend policy of the firm and the
prospects for future growth. Two commonly used ratios are the dividend yield and
payout ratio.
The dividend yield is defined as follows#

' high dividend yield does not necessarily translate into a high future rate of return. "t
is important to consider the prospects for continuing and increasing the dividend in
the future. The dividend payout ratio is helpful in this regard, and is defined as
follows#

Use and +i$itations of Finania* Ratios
'ttention should be given to the following issues when using financial ratios#
' reference point is needed. To to be meaningful, most ratios must be
compared to historical values of the same firm, the firm-s forecasts, or ratios of
similar firms.
*ost ratios by themselves are not highly meaningful. They should be viewed
as indicators, with several of them combined to paint a picture of the firm-s
situation.
)ear-end values may not be representative. Certain account balances that are
used to calculate ratios may increase or decrease at the end of the accounting
period because of seasonal factors. !uch changes may distort the value of the
ratio. 'verage values should be used when they are available.
7atios are subject to the limitations of accounting methods. 2ifferent accounting
choices may result in significantly different ratio value
48
Ratio Ana*ysis
To illustrate efficiency as a good investment choice, we will use data from the annual
reports of PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, for the fiscal year /,,0, in order to form comparative
ratios. To realize the values of the ratios, it is necessary to compare them with
benchmark values. Hne benchmark consists of similar firms in the same industry.
+iCuidity?
@i3uidity refers to a company-s ability to meet its re3uirements for cash. @i3uidity is
necessary to meet both e.pected and une.pected cash demands. 'll businesses need
li3uidity to operate. "nade3uate li3uidity can stunt growth and ultimately lead to
bankruptcy if debts cannot be repaid. ?owever, too much li3uidity can detract from
profits because li3uid assets are low returning investments. The standard measure of
li3uidity is the current ratio, calculated by dividing Gcurrent assetsG by Gcurrent
liabilitiesU. The current ratio for PepsiCo of +.+ indicates it is the more li3uid of coke,
and also performing better than the beverage industry with a +.,, figure. The ratios
for Coca-Coca is close to +.,,. ?owever, this is not the norm for high 3uality
company with easy access to capital markets to finance une.pected cash
re3uirements.

#rofita0i*ity?
Two common measures of profitability are the net profit margin and the return on
assets ratios. ;ach provides a different perspective about the firm-s profits. To
measure the profitability of a company-s operations, you calculate the net profit
margin $AP*% by dividing Gnet incomeG with GsalesU. >oth entries come from the
income statement. Aet profit margin indicates the percentage of each dollar of sales
that the firm is able to flow to the bottom line as profit. AP* is a function of the price
of the product $which produces sales revenue% and efficiency of operations $cost of
goods sold%. ' firm selling a uni3ue product to a captive market may be able to
charge a premium price and thus generate greater AP*. Conversely, a firm selling a
generic product in a highly competitive market will have a low AP*. "t must be a
40
very efficient company, or it will not survive. The net profit margins of our / sample
firms illustrate these concepts. Coca-ColaCs AP* of 0.0 percent is low compared with
PepsiCoCs AP* of +=.= percent.This is due primarily to its proprietary product and
monopolies in certain foreign markets. PepsiCo derives the majority of its income
from lower margin snack foods and restaurants. @ess than half its sales come from
soft drinks.
The 7eturn on 'ssets ratio $7H'%, which is also known as the 7eturn on "nvestment
ratio, is calculated by dividing Gnet profitG by Gtotal assetsU. "t indicates the rate of
return provided by the book value of the company-s assets. The higher the 7H', the
more profitable the company is. Consistent with the AP*, PepsiCo has the highest
7H' with +6.0+ percent, making Coca-Cola-s +4.4= percent second. This reflects
PepsiCoCs ability to generate significant sales volume from its asset base.

Tota* Asset Turno7er Ratio?
'nother indicator of a company-s ability to generate profits is the total asset turnover
ratio, calculated by dividing GsalesG by Gtotal assetsU. "t indicates how effectively the
company generates sales from its asset base. The more effective the company is in
generating sales revenue, the higher the asset turnover ratio will be. ?owever,
PepsiCo and Coca-Cola-s ratios are, /.,, and +.0+ respectively. these are driven
primarily by their high inventory turnover, and efficient use of fi.ed assets. Thus,
cokeCs low AP* is offset to some e.tent by its ability to generate sales from its asset
base $the company is a high volume, low overhead
producer%.
45
In7entory Turno7er Ratio?
(or companies that have a large investment in inventory, it is useful to calculate the
"nventory turnover ratio, which is the Gcost of goods soldG from the income statement
divided by the GinventoryG shown on the balance sheet. ' low turnover ratio indicates
too much investment in inventory. &hereas a high turnover ratio could cause lost
sales due to lack of merchandise to meet customer demand. PepsiCo-s is higher,This
reflects differences in their distribution methods, with Pepsi-s snack foods driving the
ratio higher than for typical merchandisers.
Finania* +e7era"e?
(inancial leverage is the use of fi.ed cost funds such as debt or preferred stock to
increase the common stockholder-s return. sing debt in the firm produces a stream of
earnings that has greater volatility $risk% than would occur in the same firm if it had
less debt. Hne major factor is management-s willingness to accept financial risk. '
second factor is earnings predictability. Two debt ratios that were computed are the
debt to total assets ratio, or the Gdebt ratio,G and the e3uity multiplier.
De0t Ratio?
The 2ebt ratio is calculated as the sum of all the liability accounts divided by Gtotal
assets.G (or our four sample firms, the numerator is the sum of everything on the right
side of the balance sheet from Gcurrent liabilitiesG through Gdeferred income ta.esU.
's you can see for our firms, their debt ratios vary from PepsiCoCs 8+./ percent. &e
can conclude that Pepsi is using more financial leverage in the firm and thus is
e.posed to more financial risk than cocacola.

;3uity multiplier +.08 +.=/ +.66
The ;3uity multiplier is a similar calculation, determined by dividing Gtotal assetsG by
the
GCommon e3uityG account. "f a firm is totally financed by e3uity, the e3uity multiplier
will e3ual +.,,. The larger the number, the more highly leveraged is the firm.
6,
Consistent with the Gdebt ratio,G the e3uity multipliers of the / firms display that
Pepsi has the greatest amount of leverage, and cocacola has lower.
Return on ECuity?
*any would argue that the most important ratio to calculate for a company is its
return on e3uity $7H;%, which is Gnet income available to common stockholdersG
divided by Gcommon e3uityU. 7H; represents the rate of return the company earned
on the book value of its e3uity investment. The higher the number, the greater the
return the company
is earning for its shareholders. (or our companies, PepsiCo has the greatest 7H;,

the industryCs /0.=51 consensus.

PepsiCo has an e.cellent 7H;. "t is a result of its high profit margin, effective asset
utilization, and use of leverage. PepsiCo probably is pursuing an aggressive debt
strategy because of the lower profitability of some of its product lines.

#rie=Earnin"s Ratio?
The PriceL ;arnings 7atio is used to gauge the relative value of a security in the light
of current market conditions. "t is determined by dividing the price of a share of stock
by its earnings per share for a +/-month period. !ometimes the PL; is referred to as
the GmultipleU because it shows how much investors are willing to pay per dollar of
earnings. PepsiCo has a high PL;, which means high projected earnings in the future,
in comparison to its competitors in the beverage industry.

depreciation and other non-cash charges from the e3uation. 'nother advantage of the
PriceLCash (low ratio is that it makes it easier to analyze various companies across
the board. 's displayed above, Coca-Cola has the most efficient PriceLCash (low
ratio than PepsiCoCs +8./0 ratios, which displays that three of the four companies
have ample money available to spend on research and development, to e.pand
operations, and to pay dividends to investors.

The <ross Profit *argin ratio indicates how efficiently a business is using its

and PepsiCo have the highest gross profit margin values of =:.=0 and 6:.=8. >oth are
outperforming the industry, which indicates that the companies can make a reasonable

Tota* De0t2ECuity Ratio?
Total debt-e3uity ratio is the ratio of a company-s long-term liabilities to its e3uity.
cocacola has the higher level of debt, making it very important for the company to
have positive earnings and steady cash flow. 2ebt in and of itself is not harmful, but it
does re3uire the timely payout of interest to debt holders. PepsiCo has the chances of
defaulting on debt.
Earnin"s %er S)are?
;arnings per share is the proportionate amount of a company-s profit, or earnings, for
each outstanding share of common stock. "t is calculated as net income minus
dividends divided by average outstanding shares. This is the single most popular

company is e.periencing a cash flow crunch, it could be because its mark-up is not
enough to cover e.penses. 7eturn on sales can help point this out, and allow you to
adjust prices for an ade3uate profit. 'lso, be sure to look for trends in this figure. "f it

"n conclusion, the ratios of Pepsi Co. significantly improve and lose their worrisome
volatility with time. They reach levels as high, if not higher, than those of their main
competitor, Coca Cola Co. These changes are evidence for the stable positioning of
Pepsi Co. and their increase in market share compared to that of Coca Cola Co.
Therefore, the comparative ratio analysis of the two competing companies supports
the conclusion that Pepsi Co. is doing better within its internal operations and market
penetration. Thus, Pepsi Co. would be the more profitable investment
