Introduction
In this report, we are discussing about one of the two leading hospitality companies who is operating in the International Arena.  The first company we are discussing is Chipotle Mexican grill and the second company we have discussed is McDonald's.
Chipotle Mexican Grill is a major chain of restaurants which provides grilled Mexican food. The company has derived its name from the Chipotle which means dried and smoked food in the local language. Chipotle Mexican grill owns a restaurant in around 1600 locations in the entire world and all of those restaurants are owned by the Chipotle group and company has not adopted a franchise model. Mission and vision of Chipotle Mexican grill include providing high quality cook the food which is prepared by using innovative ingredients and techniques in order to make delicious food in the audible range of prices.
McDonald's is one of the oldest company in food and Restauran
t sector the company was started in 1940 by its founder Richard MacDonald in the state of California in the United States. The McDonalds Head around 36900 outlets in the entire world and company serves around 70 million people in over 100 countries. Burger along with other range of fast food is the major product supplied by the company. The company operates on the franchise model and derive its major revenue from the royalties and fees paid by those franchises.
Vertical and Horizontal analysis
Initially we have analyzed the financial statements of Chipotle Mexican grill and McDonalds through vertical and horizontal analysis. In income statement, vertical analysis expresses all the line item in the income statement as a percentage of revenue. This helps in analyzing cost and operational mattresses as the percentage of the revenue.  In balance sheet all the line items of the balance sheet are expressed as a percentage of total assets this helps in identifying the share of asset or liability on the balance sheet of the company.
Here we can observe that in case of Chipotle Mexican Grill, the majority of the cost is incurred as cost of sales. The cost of sales is almost 72% of the net revenue of the company this implies that company is heavily dependent on raw materials which are used to make the final sales product.  In case of the balance sheet, the fixed assets forms around 65% of the total assets and the company have a smaller amount of liabilities due to the absence of debt in its capital structure.
In case of McDonald's, we can observe that although the highest cost is incurred in the cost of sale the percentage of the cost of sales as the percentage of revenue is lower for McDonald's than the Chipotle Mexican grill.  Similarly, in case of the balance sheet, we can observe that the fixed asset forms around 66.4% of the total Assets and liabilities order McDonald's company are higher than its shareholder equity.
