HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!

I really need some help on the Performance Indicators section on the PEV exams. Firstly i need quirky ways to remember them (ie rhymes or mnemonics) and secondly understanding and explanations.

I've already failed this section on DFS and don't want to do the same on PEV

    I remember Current Bun.
    Because if you're doing something with MONEY, then it's Current / Base because you have to pay for Current Buns.
    If you're doing something with Index's, then it's Base / Current.

    If you know why you need them, then it's easier to remember!

    example profit margin is how much profit has been generated from revenue, so of course the formula is PROFIT/REVENUE

    or

    ROCE return of capital employed, how much profit has been generated from capital, therefore the formula is PROFIT/CAPITAL

    most of the formulas just come out from the name itself, example RECEIVABLE RATIO means Debtors/sales, you will not think about using something else (creditors,profit, capital, etc)
