Q1 – Stakeholders, I wrote about 5 Council, Students, Community, Corporate Investors and something else I cant remember. Just linking to what they contribute/receive and then referring as Keep informed satisfied etc.
1b) Advantages I wrote they’re ability to subsidise courses due to donations, then wrote that they will lose this if they do not manage the correct stakeholders linked to council threatening less cash.
Then corporate donations saying that if they dent tarnish reputation they could cause issues, I also said there is an opportunity to work closer with corporations to identify skill shortages and involve them in sponsoring courses to train people for those jobs
I said volunteers are a key advantage linking to the benefit they provide cash wise and objective wise with the finding a job course. I also linked how they have the chance to lose these linking to staff survey advising for it to be managed properly.
I wrote another strength is the personal donations linking to finances showing loss would have been 50% bigger without, linking that they have an opportunity to build on this if they successfully place students into jobs as they will be keen to support future students. I have no idea if I did part b correctly though
I think it was Non-current Assets which increased by 11% which might be where the confusion was. But you will still get Mark’s for all the other bits filled in even if a few bits are wrong so I wouldn’t stress
I got this as well Sales were 750k a year uplifting by 5% each year so year 1 was 787.5k and it kept rising after this. I ended up with a NPV of £426k I believe discounting at 9%. I wasn’t 100% sure what to do with the 2nd offer though so I did the same deducting tax and discounting at 9% before dividing both by the Annuity for 4 and 3 years respectively to give an annual cost.
I got this question as well. Once I worked out the values the Assets balanced against the Equity and Liabilities so I’m hopeful I got it right. If you copied the heading from the current year and added in a new line for the 8% Loan raised to finance expansion, filled in the figures given such as 700 cash 3000 overdraft 6618 profit to retained earnings this just left the Inventory Trade receivables and Trade payable to be filled in using the new Revenue and cost of Sales figures. I could be wrong though!!
