    The correct answer is letter "C": Vertical Analysis.

    Explanation:

    Under Vertical Analysis each line item is viewed as a percentage of a larger number in a company's financial statement. On the Balance Sheet, each line item in the Asset section is presented as a percentage of total assets. In the Liability and equity section, each line item is presented as a percentage of total liabilities and equity which equals total assets based on the accounting equation.
