The use of financial ratios is a time-tested method of analyzing a business. Wall Street investment firms, bank loan officers and knowledgeable business owners all use financial ratio analysis to learn more about a company’s current financial health as well as its potential.

' B 'is the most suited option. General public may show their interest for various reason, but the primary reason could be how a company can be beneficial to them in terms of economic, like the employability, community uplifting and so on. companies with better financial health and potential can lead to more employability and social uplifting through CSR activities.
