Presentation
The report is set so that you can demonstrate your knowledge and analytical skills.
While there are presentation marks you will see these are not very high. However, in
presenting ratios to a client you should be mindful that these are used primarily as a
comparison (for example against previous years/months/weeks, or against other
companies or an industry norm). You should therefore consider presenting these in
a table format (two columns one for each company). In terms of discussing the
ratios you should consider breaking long sections of text into sub headings for
example one per ratio. These aspects are matters of good practice and make
reading easier for your client (and your marker).
Word Count
Please note the word count. Writing to a set word limit is an academic skill and is a
key part of the assessment. Any scripts breaching the word count instructions will
have their grade moved down by one grade on the scale. Please mark your word
count in bold at the end of your report. We will also sample check word
counts to ensure compliance with this requirement.
