Thanks Trephena,
I’ll add the referencing in and look to trim my word count.
I have used a wide range of other sources to gain information which I’ve included and referenced through.
Hello Trephena,
I’ve completed topic 17, and i’ve benchmarked my company’s corporate governance practices (Taken from their GC report in their financial statements) against the UK CG Code.
Leading into this analysis section I’ve stated that I’ve taken the following information from the UK CG Code and referenced the applicable addition of the code (which are in my reference list).
I’ve also stated that the following corporate governance practices have been taken from the corporate governance report in the financial statements and referenced the financial statements (which are in my reference list).
My question is do I need to then reference each part of my analysis which details information in the code and benchmarks against the practices taken from the FS
Or
Will the references in the opening paragraph of this section suffice provided i make it clear that the information in this first section of analysis is taken from those two sources?
Going on after this section, each remaining section of my analysis includes references for each quotation, news article etc
Hello,
I’ve a query in respect of referencing. I’m doing topic 17 and in my analysis and evaluation, the first thing I’ve done is benchmark my company’s corporate governance practices (taken from the Corporate Governance Report in their FS) against the principle and provisions of the specific edition of the corporate governance code.
In the lead in to this section I’ve disclosed that I’ve taken the following information on the GC practises from the FS and benchmarked them against the Code, for which I’ve referenced both through to my references list at this point using the Harvard Referencing System.
Do I need to put a reference to the GC Report after each bit of information I’ve taken from that report or will the reference at the beginning of this section noting that the following information taken from the GC Report (with the appropriate reference) suffice?
I’m just cautious about word count.
Hello guys,
Sorry this may be a silly question, I’ve finished writing the RAP for next submission and having some difficulties with my mentor’s feedback. She is happy with the content in all three parts but it’s the layout that she’s suggesting that I amend. I just wanted to get a second opinion.
The first disagreement we have is how to introduce the issues at Carillion and corporate governance. In part 1 of my RAP I’ve introduced some of the key issues briefly that occurred to ‘set the scene’. I’ve then gone on to give a brief intro into how corporate governance has developed since Cadbury. She has said that I should introduce corporate governance in part 2 when I introduce the Corporate Governance Code as my business/accounting model and introduce the issues in my part 3 before the analysis.
Second is my project title. I believe from reading the information pack is that the title should follow the topic picked and have the chosen company adapted into the title ie ‘A critical evaluation of Carillion Plc’s corporate governance practices including an assessment of the origins of the corporate governance issues and the organisation’s response’ however my Mentor has said this in not the case. She has suggested a title along the lines of ‘An evaluation of the corporate governance issues at Carillion Plc that led to the liquidation of the company’.
I’m probably overthinking but I just want to get a first time pass before I fall back into the pressure of my final exams!!!
