MARKING GUIDELINE
(EXEMPLAR)
MARKS: 150
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 misplaced items). 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 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). Note: if figures are stipulated in memo for components
of workings, these do not carry the method mark for final answer as well.
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 differing qualities of
answers from candidates.
7. Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a final negative.
8. Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of
the answer before awarding the mark.
9. 'Operation' means 'Check operation'. 'One part correct' means 'Operation and one part correct'.
Note: Check operation must be +, –, x or ÷ or per candidates’ response.
10. In calculations, do not award marks for workings if numerator and denominator are swapped –
this also applies to ratios.
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 of candidates who provide valid alternatives beyond the marking guideline.
13. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation.
This marking guideline consists of 6 pages.

3.3 Financial indicators
(a) 550 800
Current ratio =
133 600
= 4,1 : 1 3
(b) 550 800 – 270 200
Acid test ratio =
133 600
= 2,1 : 1 4
(c) No.
- The current ratio improved from 0,9 : 1 in 2019 to 4,1 : 1 in 2020.
- The acid test ratio also improved from 1,3 : 1 in 2019 to 2,1 : 1 in 2020.
- Both ratios show an improvement.
- These ratios indicate that that business could be able to meet its short-
term obligations. The business should continue to try and improve these
ratios. 4
3.4 This is not essential as the return being earned by the business exceeds the interest
rate on the loan. However, it does not make sense to have surplus cash invested
at a lower rate than the 15% (e.g. the fixed deposit). It would make sense to repay
the loan provided there is no other urgent use for the money. 4
