how to solve this mcq??? the ans is B.

View attachment 14008
Hello my friend!!!

BRO we have to find out the value of each ordinary share.....Thus,as they say that every $1 of loan will get converted into $! of ordinary share capital......Means that the total value of convertible loan stock is equal to the value of the additional ordinary share which will be added....

Thus,,,,, 1500+600=2100 this is the new amount of ordinary share capital.....

and 2100-210 as we deduct will = to 1890......and so each share value =1890/2100 which is equal to 0.90 per share.....and so guess u understood...chal bye ttyl!!!!gtg

Economics

AssalamuAlaikum wr wb! :)
So, i recently started with the syllabus of A2 economics, and i figured out the essay questions for paper 4 require a totally different approach than those in paper 2. Can someone guide me on how to tackle those questions? Much obliged i'll be! :)

The thing about pastpapers is alright, but i have just started - Just started - with the A2 syllabus. And even if i know the contents of the question, i don't think i could possibly attempt the question without knowing the "How to?"
Did i make myself clear enough? :)
P.S. I only take Economics - not Business Studies or Accounting.

Welcome back milady!

The trick is simple: Look at the command words in the question first. Then go on to identify the areas that are relevant to economics. And write your answer accordingly.
You should know that Paper 4 essay questions cover a 'topical issue'. Recognizing this 'topical issue' should help you decide what to stress in your essay. Draw diagrams relevant to that topic. And 20+ marks are in your pocket.

Also, part (a) of the essay question usually starts with the word 'explain' to emphasize to you that you must analyse. Here, you recognise what is important and relate it to your knowledge.
And the (b) part commonly starts with 'discuss' and will require you to evaluate. Here, you compare a number of possible views about an issue and weigh up their importance.

And that's all. Congratulations, you've become an A-grader. Treat?

Welcome back milady!....Treat?

Thankyou! (Oh thankyou!) so much Nibz!! :D This has brought me such a relief! ;)
One thing that is still buzzing in my mind out here - Are the marks worth considering? You know the 15 mark or 10 mark or 13 marks allocation thing - Does it place an impact on how much you have to write? For what i think, it must not, because most of what the answer would consist of is the explanation! Your views required, Your Highness! :D

Length matters less than quality; still, it is very unlikely that a one-page answer for a 15-marks question will earn you above 10-12 marks. Just don't leave any of your explanations incomplete, and you can rest assured that your answer is adequate.

I'd suggest that you stick to books only, for now. Once you get the grip of the concepts, start practicing past papers.
