Year 4 Monday 16th

Many apologies all for not being here, but I have to go to the airport. Many thanks as well to the many of you finished work late last night and emailed me (Anna, Josef, Ondrej S, Pavel S, Matej, Martina, Pavel P).

I will be back later today, so you can complete work and hand it to me before the end of today.

You can revise for the test using the links from previous posts. There is plenty to look through!

Jindrich, I still have virtually nothing from you!

Mr W

Year 4 Work for Grades

For the test, you should know (and there are links on the blog for a lot of these things)

Profit and Loss Account
Cashflow Forecasts and statements
Balance Sheets
Ratio analysis
Sources of finance
Ownership of company

I should have work from you on (most of these are on the blog):

Sources of finance activity
Comparing 2 companies accounts with ratio analysis
Nottingham Forest
Manchester Airport / Cameron's balloons
Police Force objectives

I will also be taking into account in your grades other homeworks which will not be graded explicitly, e.g. completing accounts work, making list of companies, objectives and mission statements, finding out data on sectors of industry, completing accounts which we started in lesson for homework. These things are concerned more with helping you to learn rather than assessing your learning. Also, Vit, how often you fell asleep in lessons.

Year 4 - Sources of Finance

Hmmm,

I think we're probably all agreed that Friday didn't make much sense. I thought that giving you a worksheet and getting you to work through it, you would learn the material along the way. I probably gave you too much to chew on, though. Apologies.

So! Let's have a look at sources of finance again and make sure we're happy with all of that:

IMF SAPs - Year 6

Time to find out about Structural Adjustment Policies. If you have a look through Zambia's debt problem, you'll see what policies the IMF has put in place.
