...How Do Certain Economic Factors Affect Stock Prices? Introduction For our analysis, we chose to examine how different economic factors such as GDP, CPI, and unemployment affect stock prices. More specifically, we analyzed how these economic factors affected the stock prices of three different companies during the period from 2000-2009. The three companies that we chose were Exxon Mobil, Tiffany & Co, and Southwest Airlines. We chose those particular companies because each one offers products or services that represent a different degree on the price elasticity of demand spectrum. Exxon Mobil represents a company that offers a good which is inelastic. This means that no matter what economic conditions are present in the market, the quantity demand for this product is going to stay constant since consumers feel they cannot live without it. On the other hand, Tiffany & Co. represents a company that sells products which are elastic. This means that consumers will choose to buy their products depending on the conditions present in the market. Southwest Airlines represents a company that offers a service which can be viewed as both inelastic and elastic depending on the type of travel being studied. For business travelers who are required to fly for their jobs, the service that Southwest Airlines provides is inelastic since they generally have no choice in whether they fly or not. On the other hand, there are travelers who view flights...

...Concerns | | 10 | References | | 11 | Appendix | | Executive Summary The Exxon-Mobil merger of 1998 makes for an interesting Mergers & acquisitions discussion as one of the largest mergers in the history of Oil and Gas industry. The merger took place as the industry was undergoing a phase of rapid consolidation. Operational efficiency, oil reserves in emerging economies, constantly dipping oil prices and challenges in downstream operations were the defining factors of the landscape and drivers behind the merger. The success of the merger lies in the significant synergies derived , whether it be complementary asset locations, different competencies and stronghold over different geographical locations. The near term operating synergy was a whopping $2.8 billion. Risks however existed in terms of meeting anti-trust and regulatory concerns, retention of personnel and cultural differences. Exxon-Mobil post the merger would gain an exorbitant market share in key locations which would have a bearing on fair competition. This led to FTC handing out strict compliance requirements. However, with intense efforts by the leadership at these two companies, the merger has gone down in history as one of the very successful ones. Exxon capitalized on the marketing expertise of Mobil while continuing its core competency in exploration. The valuation multiples indicated that the price paid for Mobil was much below its intrinsic valuation, though it had been acquired at a premium....

...Analysis of Chevron Introduction Chevron Corporation is a multinational energy company that is based in the United States. It is the second largest U.S oil company after Exxon Mobil Corporation, and is also the fourth largest oil company in the world. Chevrons mission statement is “At the heart of The Chevron Way is our vision… to be the global energy company most admired for its people, partnership and performance.” Chevron was first founded in 1876 as Pacific Coast Oil Company in California. At that time oil started to gain a market and have a higher value. Pacific expanded dramatically after the discovery of oil in Saudi Arabia. Twenty years later, the company merged with Iowa Standard, forming Standard Oil California (Socal) as the new company. Socal successfully gained a market in the United States and Asia. In the 1970’s, the rise of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cast Socal out of the Middle East region, which caused a great loss to the company. In 1984 Socal purchased Gulf Corporation for $13.2 million, which, at the time, was the largest oil producer and distributer in the Middle East. Acquiring Gulf Corporation doubled Socal’s oil and gas reserves. As a result it generated great profit to the company by the late 1990’s because of the increase of gasoline prices. Socal also changed its name to Chevron during that period of time. Chevron grew and expanded because of the amount of subsidies and mergers that it gained from every region they operated...

...ExxonMobil Analysis Indiana Wesleyan University ExxonMobil Analysis Rex W. Tillerson, Chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil stated in 2012s summary annual report “unrelenting focus on creating long-term value is the commitment we make to all who place their trust in ExxonMobil by investing in our stock… our unique competitive advantages and steadfast commitment to ethical behavior, safe operations, and good corporate citizenship enable us to deliver long-term value to our shareholders while helping to supply the world’s growing demand for energy” (pg. 5). Exxon continues to deliver “superior results” to its shareholders. As I looked over Exxon’s summary annual report for 2011 and 2012, it was clear that the majority of the oil company’s assets were tangible. According to Investopia.com (2014) tangible assets are “assets that have a physical form…they include both fixed assets, such as machinery, buildings and land, and current assets, such as inventory.” Both the 2011 and 2012 summary annual reports have the majority of its tangible assets in its property, plant and equipment portion of the balance sheet. Exxon Mobil Corp.'s current, quick, and cash ratios improved from 2011 to 2012. The company’s Net Income was $41,060, 000 (2011) to $44,880, 000 (2012), which is a positive move and an increase of $3,820,000 or a little of 9%. Cash flows for the same period moved negatively, about $11,305,000 or a little over 65%. The cash flow statement is broken down into three different categories...

...always been a hectic task to the public. A trend analysis assists in the evaluation of the financial presentation of a business over a specific period of time. Periods to be analyzed ranges from months, quarterly, half yearly or between specific years depending on the situation. In accounting, two methods are widely adopted to analyze the income statement and balance sheet trends. The techniques adopted are the horizontal analysis or the vertical analysis. The two analyses help the users of financial information to compare the performance of different companies for specified financial years and evaluate the performance of the companies over a certain period. The two analysis techniques are related in that the reported figures in the balance sheet or income statement are converted into percentages (Fridson, 2002). Horizontal analysis focuses on changes on trends in financial statements variables over a certain period. It compares historical financial data over a number of periods. The application of horizontal analysis helps to present the complex data in the financial statements and judge whether specific components have increased or decreased. In horizontal analysis technique, the base year is extracted from the financial statements and the figure of each component under study is converted to a percentage of the base year amount. Percentage change= (Current year amount-Base year amount)/ base year amount Vertical analysis technique which is also referred to as common size...

...Intro Exxon Mobil is one of the most successful businesses in the history of the United States. Though it did not start as Exxon, but evolved through splitting and joining of oil companies, it has always been a strong competitor in the field of oil sales. Exxon is now one of the top companies in the world, and has its eye on growth. According to Fortune 500 Exxon is the second largest company in the world, and though it is not the number one largest, it is the most profitable. In 2011 Exxon’s profits topped $30 billion, a whopping 58% jump. Background In 1870 a man named John D. Rockefeller founded a company called Standard Oil Company and by 1878 it controlled 95% of the US refining capacity. By 1911 the Supreme Court of the United States[->0] ruled that Standard Oil must be dissolved and split into 34 different companies. Two of these companies were Jersey Standard[->1], which eventually became Exxon, and Socony[->2] which eventually became Mobil. [5] Both companies grew significantly over the next few decades. In 1931, Socony merged with Vacuum Oil Co.[->3], an industry pioneer dating back to 1866. In 1966, Socony-Vacuum changed its name to ‘Mobil Oil Corporation’. A decade later, the newly incorporated Mobil Corporation absorbed Mobil Oil as a wholly owned subsidiary[->4]. Jersey Standard, led by Walter C. Teagle[->5], became the largest oil producer in the world. Jersey Standard changed its name to Exxon Corporation in 1972 and established Exxon as a trademark throughout...

...Exxon Mobil External Analysis By: Travis Smith, James McKiernan, Tom Johnson, and Peter Ackley Analysis of the industry This industry is controlled by several large corporations, and many smaller organizations. It is difficult to enter into this market because of the high entry barriers. There are many small exploration companies that contract out to the big players of this industry such as ExxonMobil and the members of the strategic group. Some small exploration companies are Continental Energy Corporation, Atlantic Petroleum, and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation. Anadarko Petroleum Corporation works hand in hand with Beyond Petroleum, and was indirectly involved with the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The members of Exxon’s strategic group consist of Beyond Petroleum, Conoco Phillips, and Chevron. These members are a part of the strategic group because they explore, produce, refine and market oil and gas. A reason why we didn’t pick Royal Dutch Shell is because we found that they have a joint venture with Exxon Mobil. With the recent hunches of more regulation in the oil industry, these corporations are investing in natural gas companies. In order for these companies to remain competitive they need to always be innovative and creative. This is another reason why we picked these three members as a part of the strategic group. Conoco Phillips is the smallest one in the strategic group bringing in only $16.99 million in net income at the end of 2008 (ConocoPhillips, 2008)...
