someone put their teachers answers on fb discussion page. answers were decreased economic output, quality control and april. for the questions discussed above.

before anyone asks it could not have been march because you received materials on the 31st march. so you obviously don't start on the day you receive so its the next month.

I've put down April as well for the reasons said above.

I found it a pretty good exam overall! Not going to lie, I wish I added more to my short answer response. When i look back on them now, I realise they're probably very superficial.... I honestly could never get the balance between being succinct and detailed enough right. :( Hopefully I at least made a stronger reference to the hypothetical case studies. Can confidently say that I performed better today compared to trials.

What section 4 question did everyone do? I did marketing essay question, with McDonalds case study.

The exam wasn't too bad,

I found multiple choice threw me off the most/was the most challenging for me (18/20 I'm pre sure)
Short answers and the report wasn't too bad!
However I did controlling current assets/liabilities and leasing/sale and lease back as two working capital strategies xD, so I combined some. Hopefully I don't get marked down too much.
The essay was weird (I ended up doing 27). I didn't understand what it meant by "relationship between objectives and strategies" So I just dedicated each paragraph to a strategy and talked about how they achieved performance objectives lol, I used Qantas and Apple.

The b6 cutoff will probs be like high 80's, I'm really hoping for a raw 90 or above :/

I only realised it 5 seconds before the supervisor said "pens down". I couldn't change it though. Oh well.

I did the same thing for Section 4. I just made sure to link to the question at the bottom of each set of paragraphs.

19/20 for multiple choice (fk gantt charts) - teacher went through questions. It all comes down to short answer and extended responses. Btw, how did you manage to use sale and leaseback for a new restaurant without assets lmao. I managed 7 pages for the report, but only 5 for essay.

They want to open ANOTHER restaurant, meaning they already own property which can be sold and leased.
Yea I got extra writing booklets for each question, filling in another 1.5 pages. I don't remember how many pages are in the original booklet.

Holy fk, is your handwriting big? Each booklet was 7 pages. How would you manage to write 8.5 pages without fluffing.

I chose finance companies. My teacher said that unit trusts is also arguable in addition to finance companies.
I chose finance companies because they often provides loans and leases
