    Yes

    The examiner will want to know you understand the extent to which the business has been financed by borrowings, on which interest is payable.

    No other papers
    Use the manufacturing principles to practice, but remember the point I made to one of the group.
    Make sure you understand whether you are being given inputs or outputs.
    A typical budget starts from forecast sales, so it goes
    1. Sales
    2. + closing stock
    3. -opening stock
    4. = saleable production
    5. etc

    An input based budget could start from purchases (or insurance claims even!!)
    1. Purchases
    2. +opening stock
    3. -closiong stock
    4. = Materials available for production
    5. adjust for wastage
    6. = Good materials we can use
    7. divide by kg per unit
    8. Units we can produce (in total)
    9. etc

    Well you've had a yes and a no
    Now you've got
    I don't know

    I wouldn't think there would be much time for one if you've got both a budget for planning and one for control
