Under Accounting & Finance we have the possible essay topic:
Discuss the benefits and costs (financial and other) associated with TSL's investment in this new production line.
Now i was wondering, because theres so much to talk about relating to people in organisations (additional staff needed, more managers needed, increased training costs, tailoring recruitment and selection process to require highly skilled workers or provide training for them)
Would you get absolutely no marks due to not sticking to Accounting and Finance specifically? Throughout my possible essay plans i've struggled to not include other areas such as marketing, people, accounting or operations management.
Obviously there are a few issues with this question relating to strictly accounting and finance such as;
Training Costs
Hiring more staff (cost)
increased demand for raw materials (cost)
higher fixed costs and variable costs
discussing investment appraisal for new production line
However the question i'm asking is, would it be absolutely useless to bring issues relating to People in Organisations to this Accounting question? This also goes for whether or not to bring marketing or operations management into the question too.
