RATIO ANALYSIS QUESTION

SSHAWN4y ago
in ratio analysis question where we have to calculate ratio and evaluate the performance of the company will we be given spreadsheet to calculate ratio and notepad for evaluation OR do we have both on notepad?

Ratio analysis is only ever likely just to be a part of a question. It will not be your choice as to whether to use the word processor or the spreadsheet, but most likely it will be the word processor because the discussion will be more important than the figures themselves.

IN BPP kit many ratio analysis question they have told 10 marks are available for ratio caclulation so how many ratio do we have to calculate for 1 mark?

There is no fixed rule and most of the marks will be for discussion of the ratios anyway. Ratio analysis is not asked much in AFM but if you find a past exam question then the marking scheme at the end of the exam will tell you how the marks are allocated.
