Title: Let's talk business
Post by: Berny on December 07, 2003, 04:15:46 PM
Ok, so I was on Forbes.com looking at some numbers when I decided to look up my favorite corporation on the Pacific Ocean. Well I did. And I found something. My problem is, I don't speak the business lingo. Hopefully someone here can translate. This is what I found:
Rank 483 Name Nintendo Country Japan Sales Rank 1,001 Profits Rank 350 Assets Rank 1,005 Market Value Rank 394
Oh yeah. These numbers are for 2000. A little dated but it was all I could find.

Sales rank= rank in terms of products sold
Profits rank= rank in terms of how much of that money was beyond expenses
Assets rank= rank in terms of how much what they own is worth
Market rank = not completely sure, but how much it would cost to buy said company.

Ok, thanks. If that last one is true, then Nintedndo must be REALLY expensive. Some people's market value were in the thousands while Ninty is way up at 400ish.
