Explanation / Answer

The balance sheet of Apple Inc. is showing an overall increasing trend. The current assets for the half year increased, however the yearly total current assets marked a decrease from the year 2014 to 2015. The company is makig a constant long term investemnt year to year resulting into an increase in the total assets of the company. Current ratio of the company is unfavourable for the company as the current liabilities are more than 50% total assets. The common stock of the company shows an increase in value, however the total stockholder's equity shows the total decrease in value because of the reduction in the retained earnings of the company.
