    Hello
    I must admit that it would be quite difficult to get a sample project because you are not allowed to do so. Secondly, you have mentioned you failed in analysis and referencing in SWOT. I used a SWOT analysis in my project and what I have done is to include this SWOT as an appendix because it took too much of my word count. I nserted a table and the information I took from websites and newspapers, I wrote where it was taken from at the end of the sentence. If all the information was taken from one website or newspaper, I then put that website address at the bottom of the table.In your analysis you must provide reasons why the ratios have increased or decreased. I am assuming you are doing topic 8. For example, if the gross profit margin has increased, look for information in the annual report that may suggest the reasons for this increase. It may be that the company has launched a new product that has increased sales or something else. Most reasons why the ratios have increased or decreased are shown in the annual report. Lastly, it may be best if you have a look at the BSC info pack it gives you a guide on what they required of you in regards to references. Just follow that and you can’t go wrong. I hope this help. Good Luck!

    I do not understand what you said about focusing on a group means failure. Most companies are part of a group if tesco v sainsbury is chosen aren’t these companies part of a group? Apologises if I misunderstood the answer to the question.

    Thank you reply. Do you know how to create the charts when carrying out the analysis? What I mean is how do I input the charts in part 3 when conducting the analysis?

    Well done to all those that passed their RAP and good luck to those who did not make it this time. I am doing topic 8, when preparing the consolidated financial statements in excel is it basically copying out the information and putting it in excel. As the consolidated financial statements are prepared already that is what I gather is that right?
