    Using bpp text book question 1a stated that the Roce fell from 13.46% to 9.56% how did they get the percentage Sir?

    Secondly sir, is there anything or material or text books to help me with these kind to calculations as I tend to mix them up or easily forget how to calculate them.
    This worries me a lot as I heard the same problem in my previous exam

    We cover basic ratios in our notes.

    Which examm is Machineshop from? I don’t have the BPP kit. However ROCE is

    Operating profit before tax and interest, divided by capital employed.

    Capital employed is

    Share capital + reserves/retained profits + long term loans.

    FRG (1500 – 700)/(9500+ 400 + 2500) = 6.45

    Machine Shop given in Question as 17.5.
