MARKS: 150
MARKING GUIDELINES
MARKING PRINCIPLES:
1. Penalties for foreign items are applied only if the candidate is not losing marks
elsewhere in the question for that item (no foreign item penalty for a misplaced item).
No double penalty applied.
2. Penalties for placement or poor presentation (e.g. details) are applied only if the
candidate is earning marks on the figures for that item.
3. Full marks for the correct answer. If the answer is incorrect, mark the workings
provided.
4. If a pre-adjustment figure is shown as a final figure, allocate the part-mark for the
working for that figure (not the method mark for the answer).
5. Unless otherwise indicated, the positive or negative effect of any figure must be
considered to award the mark. If no + or – sign or bracket is provided, assume that the
figure is positive.
6. Where indicated, part-marks may be awarded to differentiate between different
qualities of answers from candidates.
7. This memorandum is not for public distribution as certain items might imply incorrect
treatment. The adjustments made are due to nuances in certain questions.
8. Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a
final negative.
9. Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the
reasonableness of the answer before awarding the mark.
10. 'Operation' means 'Check operation'. 'One part correct' means 'Operation & one part
correct'.
11. In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item
that is incorrect, at least in part. In such cases, do not award the method mark. Indicate
by way of .
12. Be aware that some candidates provide valid alternatives beyond the memorandum.
13. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation.
These marking guidelines consist of 10 pages.

financial indicators (with figures) to prove your agreement.
Quoting of indicator
Explanation by Zee
Comparison with Ryan
Current ratio of Zee Ltd is 1,7 : 1 and of Ryan Ltd is 5,8 : 1. Zee
Ltd has enough current assets to cover its current liabilities,
whereas Ryan Ltd is holding too much of its funds in the form of
current assets, which may not result in a return for the business.
Acid test ratio of Zee Ltd is 0,8 : 1, and of Ryan Ltd is 3,7 : 1.
Even if Zee Ltd is not able to sell all of his trading stock, he should
still be able to cover his short term debt. Ryan Ltd is holding much
of his current assets in the form of trading stock (stockpiling).
Debtors' collection period for Ryan Ltd is 55 days whereas
Zee Ltd is collecting from their debtors within 26 days. Debtors
are paying Zee Ltd much sooner than the debtors of Ryan Ltd. 6
3.1.2 Which company uses more loans? Quote and explain a
financial indicator to support your answer. Explain whether
this is a good idea or not.
Zee Ltd
Debt/equity ratio is 1,9 : 1 for Zee Ltd and 0,2 : 1 for Ryan Ltd
Explain whether this is a good idea or not.
It is not a good idea.
Return on capital employed for Zee Ltd is 12,4 % which means
that the return he is earning is lower than the interest he is paying
on the loan, 14% (negative gearing)
6
3.1.3 Explain why you think the market price of Ryan Ltd's shares is
much better than that of Zee Ltd. Quote and explain TWO
financial indicators to support your answer.

Market price of Zee Ltd is 590 cents which are lower than the net
asset value of 625 cents, OR the market price is 35 cents lower than
the net asset value.
Market price of Ryan Ltd is 755 cents which are higher than the net
asset value of 605 cents, OR the market price is 150 cents higher
than the net asset value. Ryan Ltd is thus able to fetch a price higher
than the value of the shares in the books of the company. 4
