Hi,

Just wanna ask if is it possible to attend UK graduation ceremony, given that the regional ceremony for me should take place in Dubai.

Hi @trephena

I have a couple of doubts if you can help me out :

1. If I used on source (e.g. article) and wrote so many paragraphs based on the content of that article, where is the ideal place to keep the in-text reference? last paragraph, after each paragraph?

2. If there are similar in-text references (e.g bloomberg,2014), what is the best method of distinguishing between them in the text and reference list ( e.g. bloomberg a , bloomberg b )?

3. Is it fine to use same reference for everything taken from annual report?
e.g. in-text ( Vodafone annual report, 2014)
reference list: Vodafone, 2014. Moving forward, Annual report 2013. [Online] Available at: …………………………………………………………………………………(Accessed 12 January 2015)

Thank you

Thnx for your quick reply @trephena. I am submitting on a different company this time, so SLS/ presentation is required?

Hi @trephena

I need your help on the following:

1. Can I use a single reference for a couple of paragraphs. For instance, after writing a couple of paragraphs about one of company’s strengths (e.g. strong liquidity) and all these paragraphs are based on 1 article. Will it be sufficient to write (bloomberg, 2014) after last sentence.

2. Where is the best place to include calculation made other than ratios ( e.g. % change) and the raw data used to reach to the final figure. Appendix or excel sheet?

Thnx in advance

Hi @trephena

I am resubmitting in May and in my results it says:

Skills & learning statement

Graduate skills
8. self reflection – pass
9. communication skills(inc. presentation) – pass
skills & learning statement – pass

So, my question now is am I required to submit SLS/presentation this time?

I understand that re- submission statement is a must this time.

Thank you

Hi @trephena

I have selected a listed company and their annual report for the year 2014 was published during March 2015. I have used 2011- 13 annual reports, so anything wrong with this?

Thnx in advance

[hussainsabt92]

Thank you @trephena

I have one more question if you can help me out:

While discussing each ratio, do I need to cite/reference everything taken from chairman/CEO statement? Or markers already know what the source is. Because it looks a bit silly to write after each sentence or paragraph the following brackets: (annual report,2014).

e.g revenue has increased because of a recent acquisition (annual report,2014). One off expenses derived margins down (annual report,2014).

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I want to know how can I insert function that uses data from different worksheets in the same excel file. I have created one file that includes both financial statements and ratios and I am trying to show the raw data used for the calculation of ratios.

This was one of the reasons for failure in my first submission.

Thnx

Hi,

I just have a couple of questions:

1. If the financials of the company and comparator are presented in different currencies, is there any need for translation? and shall I include this under limitation section?

2. Do I need to reference any information taken from the annual reports while discussing the reasons for changes in ratios/trends? Or the marker is already aware of the source and hence referencing is not necessary?

Thank you

[hussainsabt92]

Thank you for reply

Re first question : the problem I face that financial statements and annual reports are available for consolidated results and not for every entity. It is a telecom company whose headquarter in my country but has subsidiaries, joint ventures elsewhere

[hussainsabt92]

Hi,

I just have two question if u can clarify please:

1. I have chosen two groups each having subsidiaries and investments in at least 10 countries. In Pestel and swot, I shall focus in which country?

2. I am resubmitting with a pass in SLS, shall I re-submit it again?

Thank you

[hussainsabt92]

Dears,
I have failed in last session, with pass in SLS. Do I need to prepare SLS again, given the company selected this time is different but same topic(8)? Besides, which documents need to be attached with RR under such circumstances.

Regards

@trephana I read your reply and have a further question. If the exchange rate is not fluctuation over the three years (10SAR/Dinar)…. Is it enough to just include the rate beside the income statement and balance sheet or translation in this case is required?

November is a month in which I have two things in front of me: Past papers & Technical Articles.
