There are 6 columns in the question and in the 2nd column it is mentioned ‘Actual’ and in 5th it is mentioned ‘Forecast’. Just confused with what are the other columns – actual or forecast?. And also in the answer it is mentioned that receipts and payments in forecast period has raised by 8.5% and 9.4 % while salaries and other operating payments only rised by 4.1%. Don’t know how they have arrived at this. Could you please help me with this.
I don’t have a version of BPPs kit that includes this Q but in the original Q it is clear from the 1st para refs to year end and six-month periods that the 1st 2 columns are actuals figs and the remaining four are forecast – i.e. 2 years after the reporting date.
