yea even i thought so... i hope it is that way cuz every figure was related to the other... InshAllah wish to ace it.... but im still worried cuz q1 calculation part was 20 marks in total.... 12 for part a and 8 for part b.... btw how do u calculate the capital employed cuz under capital it only said loan... so i wrote capital employed as $1m... thats wrong?

the roce ratio was given and you calculated the operating profit in the first part.. right?? you sustitute in the roce formula to get the capital employed which includes the long term loan.

And then we had to minus the loan right? If yes, how many marks will I lose if I added the loan?

nah. the figure you get already includes the loan and you need to add the current liabilty which were the trade payables and then deduct the current assets to get the figure for fixed assets. :)

Goodwill had to be written off in the second question although it wasn't mentioned. Yeah,in a past paper when the examiner didnt mention anything the marking scheme didnt write off the goodwill,but from now on we have to as only purchased goodwill can remain in the books of accounts and that's highly unlikely in this question.
The correct profit figure for q2 was 20,000 and hence the goodwill amount was 40,000.
q3 was fine.
q1 created a lot of confusions and uncertainties .. Was the long term liability being added or subtracted... From where it was placed,it looked like as it had to be added.

It was going to be added to the Capital, which was going to be equal to Capital Employed. :)

The Balancing capital figure were 2,800,000 and 800,000 right?

Mostly in paper 2,the marking scheme subtracts long term liability from net assets(working capital plus fixed assets) and then considers that as the balancing figure.. You can add the long term liability at the end too. But i'm not sure which way to follow..
And does anyone have the question paper because math papers have already been uploaded.
