How are feeling guys?

To be honest I don’t understand why they give us a pre-release if they’re going to give us extracts in the paper as I see on the previous years

What pre-release?
Your teacher should have given it to you

Edexcel gives a pre release of the context that's going to be on the paper, this years context is expansion and the growth of firms and economies

How and why firms expand and grow
How and why economies expand and grow
The impact of expansion and growth on individuals, firms and economies
The benefits of expansion and growth
The problems of expansion and growth

That paper was good but the timing was very brutal.

For the first Tesla question did everyone divide the September output by the total output allocation from the technical improvements?

Finished the paper for once. For 1a and 1b they were rushed and perhaps mid. For 1c it was the last one I did, very rushed but I think my point were chill I said no cus no one will spend but yes cus other places may be fine and that it was overall depending on the level of interdependence, consumer co fincdd and the nature of the good that firms sell. 1d was ass, I just didn't have the time to think of a real quality answer. I said supply side cus lras growth due to productivity and foregin firms being attracted over which would also improve ad and also higher wages from upskilling also imprive ad. My other point was infrastructure brings in forgin firms so more jobs and just now thinking how I should have said they bring new skills. My conclusion was interest rates and that supply said better for inflation. All of question 2 was chill I'm quite happy aboutt that I hope my exam technique was chill

It was 94.47 or smt % and u had to say they are over-utilising i think I drew the diagram just to make sure

I said it's good they increased their maximum as now they can accommodate demand and be receptive to shocks but then tm counter was 94% is still really high and they may lose out of consumers due to not meeting demand in the future

Yeah my timing was awful, spent far too long on the first ten maker, had to sacrifice the second ten maker subsequently, only wrote one page.
