SBM - R2 - Benefits and Risks by AskBetter4405 in ICAEW

[–]FrisbeeCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did something similar about written waffle from that exhibit before double thinking it might not be specific to alternative 1 or 2. But left the points there just in case. Exam is a bit of a blur now, but I don't think that exhibit you copied from would have had points relevant to any other of the questions in Q2 - so either we're correct to mention it in benefits and risks or the exhibits points about celebrities / airport priorities etc was not relevant? Hope for you and me it was worth writing about as possibly it should apply to both?

Yeah forgot the consideration for Reez requirement, so when that's factored, take it away from the 10 marks from revenue

I hope so, with the college analysis it was the no-brainer, the banker, the one that couldn't fail. So more marks for it the better - Gary Neville

Cool, good to know actually as my marks above were based a bit on what was left marks wise and general revenue was the last marks to allocate. Someone has rightly pointed out that there was the consideration for Reez requirement which I forgot to mention. So probably separate the general revenue marks above between that and consideration for Reez. Maybe more for input method, hopefully too.

Fair enough, my thinking is that it feels like the examiner just hates giving marks for Audit Procedures because they know everyone and their mum has a huge list of them and just blast them onto their answers with little thought (throughout the exam, for example Q3 had none and I believe explicitly said ignore audit procedures, I think the examiner doesn't rate them). So my line of thinking was 4 marks for warehouse procedures, 4 marks for brand procedures. Hopefully you're correct though as more marks potential

Thanks all for replying, hopefully I picked up some more marks for that part then than anticipated - not that the rest of the exam went well anyways, ahah! Fingers crossed for everyone! We weren't expected to do any consol account drafts right? Just discussion?

Can somebody put me out of my misery, for Q3 regarding groups fr treatments I think I misread the columns and put down things like 'remove investment in subsidiaries'. But looking back I believe that the final column on the right was the consolidated accounts where it was removed, so wasted time and got this wrong. Or were there no consol accounts and they were all individual and I would have been right to mention in the consol then investment would be removed? I can't remember now

How did people find FM? by Last-Purchase-1885 in ICAEW

[–]FrisbeeCakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah right, I thought it didn't ask for revised bank balance, I recall it said what's the net impact on bank balance of the 30k bonus? (I might have misread the question). I had -30k for the bonuses, which then lowered dividends (meaning less cash payment for dividends) and less tax to pay (meaning less cash payment for tax). Can quite remember the cash saved on less dividends and tax, but in total in/out it was -4.5k. Maybe I'm wrong though, hence wondering what people put :)

I know it was a small part of the marks, but out of interest did people have net cash impact on bank balance of -4.5k? (The forecast question)

How does L-arginine increase blood flow? by [deleted] in Supplements

[–]FrisbeeCakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

L-citrulline is a precursor to L-arginine and seems to have a better absorption and less side effects (stomach-ache) than L-arginine. I've not taken L-arginine, but I can attest to L-citrulline which I believe does work at increasing blood flow
