Why are you attempting questions for which. you do not have an answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from on of the ACCA approved publishers – they have answers and explanations.
The question you have asked could not be asked in Paper PM. It is examinable in Paper MA and my free Paper MA lectures explain this in detail.
