I am not sure which question was it .. but it was like  >>>  60 meals , 12 variable cost and 120 fixed cost and we had to calculate the total average variable cost .. who's formula is Total variable cost / Level of output

I was So dummmy ( Definitly wasn't thinking because of time ) , I wrote the formula correct but the Answer wrong ..  12/60=0.2 and i put my answer as 2. Duuuhhh!!!

I should have did it like this ..  60 meals * 12 variable cost = 720 ; 720/60= 12 .

>_<"""

the last 2 questions .. which influences have you guys chosen ??

I chose Technological influence and Economic influence ... But at that time I couldn't think of any implications for Technology .. I thought there isn't any negative point .. the last minute i just added that it increases the rate of unemployment if the business uses technology rather then workforce labor .

After the exam was over , and sat for a minute and the implications are coming to my mind and i was like SH*TTTT !!

but again wats the use , I will do Awesome in economics , I dont want to to the same as Business .. i will think here .

for the calculation i did;
60 meals*£12 which gives sales revenue of £720, then from that i did £720 - £120 (the variable cost) to find gross profit i think...then divide it by 12, and i got £10 for the average variable cost

The last question i had wrote was on inflation, and recession, but hadnt written many ppoints, mainly just the defenitions and a few impacts on what it will have on the business :/
