    BUSINESS STUDIES PAPER AND ECONOMICS PAPER! URGENT!

    No. The ROCE formula doesn't include long-term liabilities. As for the approach to the structured answers, DON'T approach using tabular form. The examiners expect a STRUCTURED answer. They don't have to be too long in length. Just focus on covering the four elements of the marking (Knowledge...

    Abnormal losses and gains (A Level Accounting)

    I have dealt with Process costing questions including the concept of abnormal losses and gains in school and past papers, but Harold Randall ( the official endorsed Accounting book for A Levels) claims that we are expected to know the treatment of only the normal losses. Furthermore, the CIE...

    Economics, Accounting & Business: Post your doubts here!

    The Accounting or the Average Rate of Return formula in Investment Appraisal.. it appears in both the Business Studies and Accounting courses but the formulas used vary from subject to subject. I learnt that ARR was simply the average profits/average investment *100, but when I applied the...

    General Paper (8001) results.

    I appeared in General Paper (8001) in October 2011 with uber-high expectations of an 'A' grade, but was instead greeted with a 'D' on the result day. I mean, a freaking 'D'? I had been averaging in the 90s throughout the entire session and had much reason to claim that the CIE manuscript of mine...

    A level Accounting help

    Would you, miss, be kind enough to explain the precise papers you are going to appear in? The AS level (Paper 1 and 2), and the A2 level (Paper 3 and 4)'s Marginal Costing is substantially different in magnitude of difficulty. By the way, members are always entitled to receive help on this...

    Urgent help for Business Studies

    Amen to that. Merely learning the subject content by heart won't levy you with an 'A' grade. You need to practise developing analytical and evaluative skills. Here's one suggestion from my side: Always try to look for the 'other side of the picture' which would ultimately help you derive points...

    Recommended plan of action for a 'B' grade

    Quite unexpectedly, I ended up having a 'B' grade in AS Level Business Studies (although I still have 'A' grades to my credit in Accounts and Economics). The problem is, of course, linked to my ambition to achieve an 'A' grade in A-levels in Business Studies (at least). My question would be...

    May I lend my doubts so as to increase the chances of their proabable clarification at the earliest? After much contemplation, I chose Option 'D' as the answer for Question no 1. Now, I read about the income derived by factors of production as Land- Rent, Labour- Wages, Capital- Interest, and...

    O' level Accounts p2 Dicussion

    Dude, do first solidify your concepts because most of the school teachers never teach from the book, when they should, as only by book can you the real theory behind every accounting procedure. Attempt past papers but don't emphasise upon them too much. Its a wrong practice that many students...

    Account P2 discussion

    Well Sijan92 I am sure about this. Capital is Total Assets Less Total Liabilities while Capital Employed is Total Assets Less Current Liabilities. As for that Trial Balance, I included all of the items in it and there's a reason why: Trial Balance are not just prepared before the preparation of...

    Account P2 discussion

    My friend, it cannot be. Yes the capital figure is right but keep in mind that Capital Employed is Total Assets less CUREENT LIABILITIES. Now since the bank loan was long term liability it could not have been subtracted in the calculation of Capital Employed. The capital employed would thus be...

    Cambridge question papers

    No it doesn't give anyone advantage. You see, once we are in the examination hall and are given the Q papers, the time for our preps is over. Hence, you cannot say that for instance if one guy sees the question earlier than some other guy would he gain the advantage, cos it all depends on his...
