I am trying to complete section 2 however I am being asked to perform ROCE etc ratios but the balance sheet is not given.
It would appear there is a sheet missing or is it I am missing something?
If anyone has the answer please let me know.

Re:PEV June 2004 Balance Sheet missing

I got youer question on an email too and sent you my answer to section 1 and the link to the question, but I think I have missed your point.
I have copied the question:-Task 2.1
(a)Calculate the following performance indicators for Model F and Model H for April:
(i)budgeted contribution margin
(ii)actual contribution margin
(iii)budgeted gross profit margin
(iv)actual gross profit margin
(v)actual capacity ratio
(vi)actual efficiency ratio
Look at it: None of the ratios asked for require the balance sheet. ROCE is not on the list.
At times like this it is tempting to look at a question and then ASS-U-ME that it is asking for a full list. This time the ratios can be calculated from the information given.
If anyone else is looking at this with the exam approaching, please don't be offended if I say-
read the question
-
take a deep breath
-
read the question again
Hopefully by then your pulse rate will have slowed down enough for the question to make sense.
