This is an IGCSE Accounting paper..I want to know if my T account format is correct (or should I use Ledger format)...Do I have to write the headings (which are circled in red)? & Do I have to write the month in full form example : Can I write "Sept" for September ?
Thanks a lot everyone

Q dIscuss and draw a diagram to show effect on market for Pringles if the price of potatoes rises.

Ans An increase in the cost of potatoes will lead to an increase in the cost of producing pringless. This can affect the business's profits so to maintain the profits, the business will increase the price of pringles. This will lead to a decreased demand as price will be higher than before

Is my aswer correct???

Thanks a lot everyone View attachment 15194

You don't need to write the headings, instead of date you have to write '2009' there and you don't have to write details either in the middle and the pound sign should be there at the end like this and yes you can use a proper abbreviation
2009 $
Sept1 xxxxx xx

Is my aswer correct???[/quote. Price of potato is rising which also means that the cost of te bysiness is rising and this will lead to cost push inflation as this high cost will be covered by high pricing by the owners.and so thus decreased demand.

Pound sign or Dollar?

Hello everyone!
My doubt is a little trivial, but I really need to know- is it completely MUST to write about your own country in Economics? I have come across many questions in the textbook that state 'discuss according to the law/market structure/economic situation in your own country'. Can I not just stick with the UK?
I would appreciate a reply,

AOA

i am in quite a difficult position, so i was hoping that anyone of you could help me.

the fact is that i am an AS student, and i have chosen the following subjects for my A level : physics, chemistry, maths, economics and GP
the problem lies with the fact that i was not previously an economics student, and its been 2 weeks since my classes have started. The problem is that i am still not sure whether to continue with economics or not, as my teacher continuously goes on dictating notes and although she explains most of it, i am afraid that i will have to do a great amount of studies for economics on my own, which will take up most of my time i could utilise for other subjects, affecting other subjects' grades.

My question is: Is economics easy enough to be handled by myself along with other subjects?? Or should i drop Economics?

Please share your views promptly, desperately in need of help.
