Re: WTF! (financial ratios)

What annoyed me most was that they were such simple numbers. I though I had done it wrong because it calculated perfectly.

Re: WTF! (financial ratios)

I'm so mad.. I really wanted to get a HSC mark of 95 and I can't even get this frikken ratio correct! WTF
Can I still get 1 mark or no?! I think the 1 mark is allocated to the correct a/b and the next mark is for typing that into the calculator, argh. FML!

Re: WTF! (financial ratios)

No marks :(

You get one mark for simply re-writing the formula.
WE GET HAVE TO WRITE OUT THE FORMULA? REALLY? So if we didn't write like total liabilities/OE or for the question before CA/CL we will lose a mark? dude thats so bs, the formula is in the question

Yes. It is stupid, it is a joke. It is the BOS of studies though.

It is sorta like maths. You can get marks for simply writing formulas and subbing in stuff.

Ideally to get full marks you would have

Fomula= 32/32= 1:1 or 100%

So for the question before that I wrote.. (exactly this)
Current Ratio = number/number
= 2.5:1

Will I only get 1 mark? :( I never said the formula

Nope, full marks.

You said Current Ratio and used correct numbers.

Basically, you will get credited a mark for:

1- showing some form of working, either a formula or numbers (it is best to use both, but it is business, so numbers should be good)
2- correct answer.i

Hence you need both to get full marks.

Implementing CSR is expensive and managers may not see any financial incentives as a result of introducing them.

Short answer was ridiculously easy. I had to keep checking the ratios question because I thought I was missing something. 2.5:1, 1:1.

Standardisation and customisation is straight forward.

Re: WTF! (financial ratios)

I edited my post.

If you said what you are working out, i.e. Current ration, it is the same as CA/CL really.
So I'd still get 1 mark atleast for my debt:equity ratio?
I wrote...
Debt to equity ratio = 64/32
= 2:1

Cutomisation and Standardisation?

Obvious I wrote what customisation/standardisation marketing approaches were, but I said how finance will be determined through budgets etc/pricing/etc
