I got 6. something lol


Im pretty sure i did it write and got answer of 2.99 . It was just current asset divided by current liability and i found current assest by adding trade recieveable, cash equvilant and somethign else, calculation part i thought was easy for this
For supergroup i said a JIT system would reduce space needed for storing raw materials like nylon, is that wrong because I think the distribution centre thing was just for storing coats etc. to send out to stores
Anyone started a unofficial mark scheme yet? Pls dooooo

Didn't need to go into detail of what their stock was I don't think, but nylon is still a raw material which is still stock so I can't see why it would be wrong :biggrin:

Yeah I just think the whole point of their JIT system was to send the actual clothes to stores when it was needed

You got the point right the fact that stock cost is reduced, they might lenalise you for intrepreting it weing or you may lose marks of application but good stuff, atleast you know what it is :biggrin:
