How to answer SBL questions

Do NOT write theories in detail. They do not need to be explained, only applied where useful. The ACCA wants you to produce professional answers that could go to your boss (or be used in a presentation or whatever the requirements are) and detailed explanations of theories is almost always inappropriate. Concentrate on writing an answer from a common sense viewpoint, supporting or developing your answer using theories. Do not ignore theories as this is not a paper called 'Strategic Common Sense' and there are numerous theories in the syllabus you must be able to refer to, but poor answers concentrate too much on explaining theories rather than using them to solve the question.
