Yes, in comparison to Q2 and Q3, Q1 was pretty straightforward. So hoping enough marks can be earned there to offset the effect from the other two.
By the way did you adjust on PBIT for divisions assessment ? There were some head office apportioned costs, but i wrote down the assumption that all revenue and cost provided are controllable
I struggled with defining which measure relates to what – flexibility vs customer vs quality.
The first two measure are ok, the third (km per sallary) i said that it is not that helpful. The fourth one (dont remember what it was) I also said its no value and proposed number of app orders/total orders to see how app is doing)
I also remember they asked not about the management style, but budget implications for different mngmt styles. Overall, still don’t get it)
Same with rewards – i just provided that performance reated reward is good and provides incentive. However they did not provide the target to get the reward which made it hard to discuss furtherThe disposal department had lower ROI than industry average, i think it was 11% vs 15%. However having it higher than cost of capital before the VC is good) thats all I could come up with on this 9% thing))
I honestly think there were too much information to digest and apply in exhibits, plus the calculation with a page long “notes”. Noe of the past papers I saw hd this much of information.
RI and ROI question – RI is positive, this is good, what else did you write?)
Hi, got the same number for advertising. 230 actual vs 160 target. I think the requirement overall was too much for the allocated time.
Didnt get at all that question on performance related reward. Was 5%, added 7%, now it is 15% ?! What?!
Same with mngmt style vs cost strategy vs 3 cleaning divisions. How would get these all in 1 answer?Anyway, very frustrated to get divisional performance in Q1 and Q2.
The budgeting was ok, kaizer and target cost more or less ok, but the rest is a complete nightmare.Also struggled with linking to the story. Too much text for Q1 I think.
Getting ready for retake 🙁
