how long should be the power point presentation ? my mentor told that it should be around 8- 10 slides. also for SLS he told there is 5 question format. but i read the post here and you have mentioned its 4 question format. @trephena. I am confused :/
Please can you tell me whether is it important to carry out PORTER’s FIve forces analysis for main company ? i have done SWOT and PESTEL so far .

[nabeela]

I have a question , is it necessary to use gross profit margin ratio for ratio analysis . I am calculating PBIT margin , Net profit margin , Asset turnover , current ratio , debt equity ratio and interest coverage ratio

[nabeela]

@faysalrahaman so you mean to say that i can take un audited financial data of comparator . from 1st april 2016 to 31st dec 2016 ? the main company data is audited but it is consolidated . i am trying my level best to acquire unconsolidated data of main company. otherwise i will be having a very tough time. :/

[nabeela]

the competitor is having year end of 31st March .

[nabeela]

HELLO

i had to create a new topic because no one is actually replying to my queries properly. I am submitting project for May topic 8 mobile telecommunications . Main company year end is 31st December. can i take the financial statement of main company from the year 2013 to 2015 , because my comparetor has un audited financial data for nine months period to 31st december 2016. will that be ok ?

[nabeela]

should i do pro rata calculation for company B in order to align with company A’s year end ? for eg for the year 2014 – i will take company B’s 3 months from 31st march 2014 ending and rest 9 months from 31st march 2015 ending . total 12 months adjusted according to company A . is that the right way ?

@trephena @OBU Mentors

[nabeela]

yes it mentions HArvard reference format 1 ( author – date )

[nabeela]

after i mention that in limitation about the year end difference , then in appendices what i should do ? like in the excel how i should adjust the financial statements?

[nabeela]

for the period april – december 2016 , un audited info is provided for company B . rest of the reports are audited.

[nabeela]

but un audited information is only provided.
at this moment how will i search for a competitor as a group ?

[nabeela]

there is any solution like changing the consolidated data to single entity ? as consolidted FS are very complex. and i have less time . i need to calculate ratios , produce graphs , make appendices , my excel is not yet ready . please help .

[nabeela]

hello

I am planning to submit my RAP for this may submission. i have chosen topic 8 mobile telecommunications . Both companies have different year endings

Main company A – December 31
Competitor company B – March 31

Should i be doing pro rata in order to analyse the financial data . or any other suggestion ?

Also for Company B – from April 2016 to December 2016 – un- audited financial statements have been produced on its website. but i cant take un – audited as this cant be accurate.

Company A has consolidated financial statements where as company B has Single entity FS. i have tried searching for unconsolidated statements but i am not able to have access. in such a case what should i do ? @Hammad Ahmed Qureshi – OBU Registered Mentor

@trephena
Please if possible clear my doubts . I am confused regarding the Referencing .

[nabeela]

@trephena
please reply to my query as soon as possible. i have tried searching for unconsolidated FS . but i may not have access to it.
what should i do for the financial year issue ? @Ehsan

[nabeela]

i also have one more query . Company A has consolidated financial statements where as company B has Single company financial statements. What am i supposed to do in such a situation ?

[nabeela]

should i mention page numbers in the citation or in the bibliography ?
i am very confused with the referencing part. please let me know as soon as possible
for websites , the author should be the website name ?
for eg , vodafone website it should be Vodafone or http://www.vodafone.qa ?

[nabeela]

also it doesn’t mention an E book option . it doesn’t add [online] when i cite a book which has digital print. for egg i cited BPP text of F7 , online , but it doesn’t mention an e book option. so i cited it as a book and mentioned the chapter number and also the page numbers. should i manually add [online] in my reference list or bibliography.?
i have cited the reference as (BPP LEARNING MEDIA 2017)

[nabeela]

for example i have cited from a website of Vodafone. so i have kept the author as http://www.vodafone.qa . therefore the citation comes as (Vodafone 2017) . but is it necessary that it should be this way – (Vodafone,2017). so should i manually add comma in between .?

[nabeela]

hello

i wanted to know about the referencing part of RAP. I am using Mendeley Software for my RAP referencing. i have noticed that when i do citation , ( author – date ) , it doesn’t add a comma in between the author and date .

[nabeela]

hello

I am planning to submit my RAP for this may submission. i have chosen topic 8 . both companies have different year endings

Main company A – December 31
Competitor company B – March 31

Should i be doing pro rata in order to analyse the financial data . or any other suggestion ?

Also for Company B – from April 2016 to December 2016 – un- audited financial statements have been produced on its website. but i cant take un – audited as this cant be accurate.
