Did you do the new AS Spec for Business?

If so the only one was in the multichoice about what was the variable cost per unit.

I put B) £4.25.
Honestly thought that test was terrible, the time was the main obstacle! For the break even question I think I got 442
I got £4.25 for the break even. What did people get for the return on capital invested question? I got 31% but not sure it's correct
What was the question about paying a public limited company?
Can anyone just put all the multiple choice answers on here please?
Q1) Fixed costs
ROI 23.18
Stock re-level answer was 30 units.
Marketing mix was process?
Payables was money owed to suppliers.
Thats all i know

I did the same one as you, and most of my class got that... I managed to get 37...

My paper didn't have any multi-choice questions on it

Both of those answers were correct. I checked the formulae sheet after the exam.

I too got 31.7% ish after using all the numbers, not sure if correct though, due to time my conclusions were not great for 16 markers though, by the way was a conclusion needed for the 9 markers
Overall, it was a great exam. Much easier than the mock specimen papers.

Let's see what Tuesday brings...

I got 31.9%, but I'm sure as long as you put 31% at least the mark is yours. Or so I hope! 😂

I have mixed feeling about how I did for both 9 markers & 16 markers.

Really hard to guess how you did. :frown:

Return on Investment Question.

£28,000-£4,000 = £24,000
£75,000-£24,000=£51,000

£51,000/£220,000x100 = 23.18%

I didn't get this. I got what everyone else is saying for the investment question
What are the grade boundaries likely to be?
