I'm with Dominic on option B. Financial statements are purely financial data, which limits the insights we can gain from ratio analysis. We need other types of information as well.

Haha, option F made me chuckle. Financial statements definitely don't provide forecast data, that's the job of the analysts! But I agree, A, C, and D are the clear limitations here.

I think option E is also a valid limitation. Financial statements can contain a lot of detailed information that needs to be summarized and analyzed before it's really useful for ratio analysis.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure option B is also a limitation. Financial statements only provide financial information, not operational or other non-financial data that could be useful for analysis.

I agree with Denise. Options A, C, and D seem clear, but I'm not convinced that B, E, and F are actual limitations. Financial statements do provide financial information, and I wouldn't say the information is complicated or only provides forecasts.

This question really tests our understanding of the limitations of financial statements for ratio analysis. I think options A, C, and D are definitely true, but I'm not sure about the others.
