Which of the following statements represent a weakness or limitation of ratio analysis? Check all that apply. Ratio analysis is conducted using benchmarking techniques. A firm’s ratios can lead to conflicting conclusions—some ratios might be ""good"" and some ""bad."" Inflation can distort balance sheet data.

The applicable answers are:

Inflation can distort balance sheet data

Explanation:

The fact that ratio analysis is conducted using bench-marking techniques implies that a business is compared with a best-in-class company that the business can learn best practices,hence that is on a positive note.

Inflation is another valid limitation as $1 last year is not necessarily the same this year.
