Mwah

Business plan is on the cards, as is agenda and memo and all of those.

*giggles*

Question 2 and 3, anyone else here doing them? I think (going by past papers) consumer acts will come up i.e. Sale of Goods..... Any other ideas? How are we all fixed for the A.B.Q?

Yeah, I think that section is easy enough (jinx much!?) anyway, consumer stuff, TNC, Data Protection act maybe!?, trade unions etc.

ABQ is probably going to be skills/characteristics again.

*giggles*

I'm beginning to wonder about the ABQ. They might (just to put us off guard) not ask about the skills/characteristics of an entrepreneur. It's just something I thought of one day when I was bored offa my head in class. Just a suggestion, nothing concrete.

i hear break even analysis is a biggie.....report.....economic variables......business plan...

*giggles*

Discuss the following i.e. answer with the effects on sales, costs and confidence. I reckon that's gonna be a big part of it.

National Consumer Agency seems to be a fairly tipped one for question 1

They've changed the name of director of consumer affairs to that I think

Just so I get this right, it's DFI (Direct Foregin Investment) not FDI, isn't it? My book has some major blunders

I'm not predicting anything, in light of the Boland faux-pais!!

Exactly. Luckily most of my predictions have come up, but business is just too broad to guess.

In Geography it's FDI not sure about business which doesn't help you much I'm staying well clear of Question 2 and 3 on those topics. Going to try and answer the other 5 and see how it goes. I heard business plans, reports, break even charts and Insurance are going to come up but I wouldn't take any chances.

I thought you had to answer 2 questions from Section 1?

Nope i'm almost positive you don't have to, I never have. I'll check now though.

Edit: It says one question from part one, two questions from part two and then one other question from either section. I only know bits of information from Units 6&7 so I can answer the short questions, I don't need to know anything else from those Units and I can answer 5 others.

*giggles*

That's good, sorry if I got you all worried there

DancingQueen:)

For a mili-second but then I remembered that I did that in the mocks and calmed down :P I find the other questions easier to answer.

i hate that break even chart! can never do it right.. doing busines on my own this yr but sure might as well have been doing it on my own the past 2 yrs my teacher was awful! i've learn hrm,sem,cap,business structures,managing skills nd activities,insurance nd taxation and organic nd economic variables

did absolutley nothing for business last yr nd i got a C1 was delighted with that..!

sugarnutmuffin

hey does anyone know how i can ask questions on this website...im new on it...lol i know great timing :rolleyes:

Compton

Ah sure biz is handy enough. Make sure to go over units 2,3,4 these contain the abq, short questions and usually q1 on the long as well!!

JoeyBuddy

You mean, start a new topic?

On the main page of the LC forum, there should be a 'New Thread' button.


Anyway, I'm just learning most of the book for business, and see what comes up on the day.
Break Even should come up anyway, and hopefully ratios.
