Hey all - hope you all did well

How happy am i that business is over!!!!

Im not completely positive about my responses but in terms of some of you guys questions

- I found M/C pretty straight forward, although first q through me for a bit my answers were:
1a) 2b) 3c) 4d) 5a) 6d) 7d) 8 b) 9b) 10b) 11a) 12c) 13b) 14d) 15d) 16c) 17c) 18d) 19b) 20a)

- The short answer questions i was pleasantly suprised with. I was a little cut though considering i went to the effort of learning all those useless ratio formulae i was pretty cuy i didnt even have to use them.

- I also got 1:1 for the q. you are all arguing about. I am pretty sure intangibles is non-current as it cant be turned into cash in less than 12mths, just like the property itself, goodwill is sold than.

- What did you all put about the mango ice cream?

- The two extended responses I wrote 17 for the business report, quite liked it, it was a little different

- For the other one i did question 27 about role of financial planning and effectiveness of financial strategies in managing global business . I wrote 9 pages but i must say, those 2 questions were a little bit unexpected, but still approachable.

So yeah, I was pretty happy with the exam, felt really positive afterwards.

I have 9 exams altogether, that was my 4th one so now i only have 5 more to go. YAY!

Keep the posts coming, they are really interesting to read after the exam.

CYA!

I think it was 1:1 (capital ratio) cause there were some long-term (noncurrent) debt there as well, and intagibles aren't included... or are they? bah!
