Business Paper Format
« on: May 16, 2010, 07:57:48 pm »
As most of you have already noticed, the format in 2009 M/J , O/N is regular. Each question is worth 20 marks, and there are 2 2 mark questions, 1 4 mark question, and then 2 6 mark questions. Does anyone know if this is the case in tomorrow's papers?

I think so too..I dont like the new format, there are too many Identify something... questions.
By the way what is the difference between profit and profit margins?

profit margin is on unit costs while profit is  the sales-total costs

if 2 ppl hv same costs but 1 is sellin 8 higher costs thn other thn tht person will hv a higher profit margin
cos he has better control ovr costs but might hv lower profits as lower prices=higher profits. :)

he will have a higher profit margin, but the overall profits depend on price elasticity of demand. so the guys profit will increase per item sold cuz his selling price is higher
