    34 hours of wait is over. Received C grade for RAP and awarded BSc (Hons) – first attempt. Expected at least B grade. But It’s okay as long as cleared out in one shot. Thanks, OpenTuition, @trephena and @GillianM for your support.

    What time one should expect the results based on past results?

    Is it the same time as ACCA, 00:00 UK time?

    Hi @gillianm

    Thanks for your quick response.


    @gillianm
    I’m still confuse as there is suggested structure given in Information pack in which it clearly mentioned that

    After the conclusion and recommendation
    “you must also include:
    A list of references
    Appendices”

    Hi @GillianM

    As OBU requires to submit all the appendix files separately.

    I have confusion that Do I need to include the appendix at the end of the main Research Report also or just the separate files?

    Can you please shed some light on this.

    Thank you @GillianM

    I have came across one more question if you could guide on that also.

    – Bibliography and list of references are the two different things. As bibliography refers as reading a wider area not cited directly.

    My question is when I press an icon “create bibliography” in word it takes all the references so the bibliography and list of references looks similar. Theoretically I know the difference. But can you please guide on how to create list of references and bibliography in word?????

    Hi @trephena and @gillianM

    I am preparing RAP on T8 for Nov ’19 submission. A quick question regarding information gathering,

    I have observed that in the Annual Report of the company I have selected have the prepaid expense of INR 4.18m in 2018 annual report but in the Annual Report of 2019, there are prepaid expenses of INR 16.17m in 2018 as a comparative.

    This is the case for many figures like the cost of sales, Revenue, EPS, etc

    I have read the full Annual Report but I couldn’t find any notes regarding the same.

    Should I use figures of 2018 from AR 2018 or from Comparative of 2019 ??

    Also if you can highlight the reason behind the inconsistency in figures ??

    Hello @gillianm and @trephena

    I am preparing for topic 8 Period 39 submission. I have a quick question about RAP. Can you please guide me on the following?

    One of my friends failed RAP and he got comments like the website he referred was inappropriate, so how can I assure that the website I’m referring is appropriate?

    One of the sources I’m using to gather information is Newspaper forums (e-sources). So do I need to enquire about the appropriateness of analyst/author who wrote the forums?

    @samirrules said:
    I got a NPV of 11.891 million I think it was, i was working in thousands though.
    The Eoq was cheaper, the saving I got was 8281, this was same as a question in the exam kit I believe.

    For the Rec management, I calc receivables, finance cost and irrecoverable debt for both 40 and 65 days and worked out the difference and waffled about how discounts or factoring could help to reduce irrecoverable debts in particular.

    Thought some multiple choice were tricky.

    For capm, first specified that capm incorporates systematic risk which Wacc doesn’t. Then explain how you would degear the asset beta as this will be found from external firms as new project and this doesn’t incorporate financial gearing. Then regear with co financial gearing and use capm to get project specific discount rate.

    r u sure about the answers u got in sec c because i got the same?!
