Hi sir I wanted to enquire that if we are asked to calculate ratios for profitability or solvency or gearing in the exam then should the workings be shown in excel spreadsheet or in the word document instead?
Thanks.August 28, 2021 at 8:53 am #633204Also if I perform the calculation on spreadsheet should i show the actual formula and then do the calculations or is it okay if i dont write the actual formula and just do the calculations for the different years

For any calculations using the spreadsheet, the marker is able to see what formulas you have used in the spreadsheet and so you do not need to type them out separately.
