    Hello,

    Question: June 2017 DS 1(ii)

    Assumptions underlying the current KPI calculations:

    How did the examiner calculate the loss of $39m for the catering business and for the Organic growth from 7.2% to 3.9%?

    Am unable to get the figures of $39m and 3.9%.

    Kindly help.

    Thank you.

    Loss = 245 (revenue, note 6) x 6.5% (op profit margin) – 55 = -39

    Total organic growth as stated = 7.2%

    Growth = (Rev 2016 – Rev 2015)/Rev 2015 = 0.072
    = (1542 – Rev 2015)/Rev 2015

    So, Rev 2015 = 1542/1.072 = 1438.

    Without the acquisitions, Rev 2016 would be 1542 – 48 = 1494.

    That would give growth of (1494 – 1438)/1438 – 3.9%
