    Hello,
    I needed some help in a few things. I would really appreciate the help.

    1. Do i have to give reference of appendices in my ratio analysis? e.g; comp xyz had a revenue of $300m while comp abc had $230m(appendice reference)

    2. While doing revenue analysis (for year 17,18,19), i created a graph for percent-change in the revenues. for 2017 i had to use figure from 2016 aswell. But since my years were 2017/2018/2019, i had to put in 2016 revenue figures only in the SOPL-sheet. Is that acceptable?

    Hi Hasan,

    1) yes. Include your workings in your appendices.

    2) your revenue analysis is still 2017, and in my opinion to analyse it properly, you will need view of 2016. So yes, include it.

    The oxford Brookes information pack gives examples for all types of referencing. I suggest you read it.

    Harvard referencing is a well-known referencing system and I’m sure if you look on YouTube you will find adequate examples too.

    Markers stop marking at 7,500 words. Provided MOST of your conclusions were before this point then you should be fine. If the 7,500 word limit was reached before you managed to do you conclusions you are likely to be failed on this. This is because conclusions are mandatory but where they fall outside the work marked then technically you have not provided any within the requirements set for the report.
