MANAC Project Guidelines

The MANAC Project requires groups to select an industry and three companies within it, ensuring no overlap between groups. Each group must analyze the chosen industry, including its structure, major players, and macro-economic factors, and conduct a Porter's Five Forces analysis. Additionally, groups must gather financial ratios for the companies, assess accounting policies, and discuss share valuations and future trends based on recent news articles.
