    Q1(ii)

    Operating profit margin: how the operating margin of 2.3% is obtained?

    Organic revenue growth – Why the current figure would fall from 7.2% to 3.9%? I don’t understand..

    See second para of (ii)

    Operating profit is currently 1542 x 5.9% = 91.

    If reorganisation costs are deducted this becomes 91 – 55 = 36

    Op profit % is then 36/1542 = 2.3%

    Revenue growth has been calculated as 7.2%. Actual revenue is 1542, so before the 7.2 growth, revenue was 1542 x 100/107.2 = 1438.

    Removing revenue from acquisitions reduces this year’s to 1542 – 48 = 1494.

    Growth is then only 1494/1438 = 1.039 ie 3.9%.
