    @Hammad Ahmed Qureshi
    Sir, can I skip using tables in the doc of Research report and instead plot the table on the excel sheet of Working and Appendices file? ’cause that would save me a lot of words. In commentary of ratios, I will refer to that excel sheet table.

    14 is superb, don’t even think of going beyond that at the expense of business analysis

    @M.

    is it really not necessary to refer the financial analysis?

    @bassaniobroke
    same here with me. I come from one of the least developed. i use ‘low purchasing power of people’ to reflect low per-capita GDP/GNI/GNP.
    it’s very extensive & strenuous to explain these economic indicators but, in the simplest terms, they all mean a common thing: how poor/wealthy your country is….and that basically leads to larger implications/factors like FDI, infrastructure, gov spending, consumption, labour development, technological advancement, exports vs imports etc……
    remember, while you mention GDP in you analysis, don’t forget explain its IMPACT – in the past, now or in the future- on the target co’s business.
    seemingly, you’re coming up with a very ‘high-value’ RAP. keep it up & Good luck!

    no steadfast rule. anything that SHOULD be referenced MUST be referenced. so what things should be referenced?……
    Anything you borrowed from a source and that source can be anything ranging from TV show to a book, a podcast to a magazine…anything.

    @Hammad Ahmed Qureshi

    Sir should give in-text citation to the things you just mentioned above. as in, whatever we are saying in the ppt presentation are derived from the RR. say, smt we wrote in RR with an in-text/citation….if we write that thing again in the ppt slide of the presentation, do we have to reference it once again?

    @Hammad

    I am a little confused on how to take account of in-text citations in word count. Say, …..(Smith, 2011) is my in-text citation.
    Does this lead to a word count of 2 or 1?
    The reason I’m asking is, somewhere in the BPP Project guide or so, I had found that each individual in-text citation counts for 1 word only.

    @Hammad Ahmed Qureshi
    what if I use 3 models: ratio analysis, SWOT and PESTEL? what could be the word distribution in that case?

    can you also comment if the word distribution in my own report ok? my word distribution is as follows:
    Ratio analysis = 2200
    SWOT = 1300
    PESTEL = 700
