Is It Just The Same Old, Same Old When It Comes To Business Studies (2 Viewers)

[TateDimech21]

Has any been doing past papers and noticed that they pretty much examine the same crap, like the most important parts of the syllabus. Other things I have noticed are that when the ask an ER question in section 4 it is always asked with a management question and when the ask global its usually linked with finance however they never (or rarely) ask about marketing and leave that to mostly the business report. Thats all I have noticed but if you have noticed anything different post it on here...

​

The General Manager of Yeo Enterprises meets with directors once a month to compare actual and planned financial performance.

Which of the following best describes this management process?
(A) Controlling
(B) Organising
(C) Planning​

(D) Staffing


Thoughts on this? I always seem to get ones like this wrong.

 

[BUSINESSKING]

Comparing actual and planned performance is a form of controlling/modifying a strategy. Organising/planning is more to do with the creation of a strategy, staffing is not related.

Clearly the answer is (A)

 

[phoebeee]

Zhaxantyeu bel yeep maxaruow whorp!

 

[dontworry]

Ahh yeaah its controlling, i thought it might have been planing when i first done it but i chose controlling as you cant plan your current situation, its a matter of reading everyyyyword in the question and double checking it with your answer..

Probably gonna be something on Fair Work Act 2009!

 

[H4wk1n4t0r]

I don't think the Fair Work Act is in the syllabus yet.

 

[BUSINESSKING]

It's not, its very unlikely that you will be marked down for saying AIRC.

 

[00iCon]

I don't think the Fair Work Act is in the syllabus yet.

just like your mother!
It could be in the short anwer, i.e. we get a paragraph of info on it and it's compehension.

 

[H4wk1n4t0r]

Yes, my mother isn't in the syllabus yet, that's true. Anyway, I think they'll just ask you to describe/list a piece of relevant employment relations legislation, where you can mention the Fair Work Act.

BUSINESSKING: You're going to get knocked out in the exam by your heavy ego. Clearly the box of tissues has far more marketing potential than you'll ever have.
