Actually it is correct as business is successful and is able to grow and expand their organization. IT IS DEFINITELY RIGHT. :)

I wrote that
1) No Child Labour Used and farmers are paid minimum set wage, thus building their reputations.
2) It is inspected, thus made sure no law is broken hence attracting environmentally concerned customers.

I know this is going to sound stupid, but I might have lost a few marks in the breakeven question :/

no ts not correct yaar. when dey ask about success, we have to mention ratios, profitability and productivity.
i mentioned: calculating the profit. see the number of employees working, measuring the capital invested in d business. :/
anyways it was okay :)

actually if u mention size but also write in the explanation that it is a very poor way of judging success due to the triviality of size as a large company will obviously be a profitable one however it may not be succesfull then i think u might be able to attain your marks however i didnt risk it and wrote other things.

the last question was the best because i do Economics and the last question was a basic economics question and i completely murdered that last question, if thers any question im sure of full marks then its that last question.

actually the two points are quite similar because if the company has a good image it will protect itself from pressure groups and likewise if the company is being presuurised by pressure groups then it will obviously come with a bad image. u possibly could get the mark if the examiner is leniant however i think it would be better if u just said to insure higher qualoty due to the inspections.

that was an easy question as all the information was given in the question and all that was left to do was to do the calculations such as 0.1 A and 0.05 B which was the labour cost per unit and also use other values already given in the case study and any other calculations you felt necessary and decide in your opinion which u thought was best.

I put Machine B as being best because even though the output was greater for A and A was cheaper that was only usefull for a short period of time as machine B was wayyyy more Effitient and as such would be better over a long period of time. however thers no correct answer and if u elaborate on the reasons u would choose for the other machine full marks are attainable however u must cintrast o the other Machine..

With the two different approaches, I focused on different things. Ie, in the first one I focused on how seeming fair will help sales etc.
In the second point, I only mentioned what bad publicity would do to the sales, and why they would want to avoid it.
So I guess they seem the same from overviews, but my explanations were completely different.
