(a) State two features of a cooperative. [2] Co-operatives are businesses owned and run by and for their members. The members may be customers, employees or residents. All members have an equal say in what the business does and a share in the profits. Award [1] for each feature identified – no reference to Hafs is needed: • Profits are shared amongst members • Members share decision making • Each member has the same voting rights on decisions • Members are owners of the business • Operate in the private sector N.B. If a candidate states that a cooperative is a social enterprise, accept that point as one feature for [1]. (b) Using Figure 1: (i) explain what the y axis shows; [2] Award [1] for a correct label or naming of revenue and costs and a second mark for a full explanation, such as “The Y-axis represents both the forecasted cost and revenue figures for Hafs. As its sales or output or activity increases (x-axis), Hafs has higher revenue and higher total costs, which can be determined by their relationship to the Y-axis and its scale. Wording does not have to be exactly as above. Maximum award: [2]. (ii) calculate the forecasted profit if sales are 25 000 units in 2021 (show all your working); [2] The level of profit if sales are 25 000 units in 2021 is TR = $250 000 TC = $175 000 [1] = $75 000 [1] Candidates that do not show any working and simply write 75 000 can only be awarded [1]. (iii) calculate the total contribution in 2021 if Hafs only sells 20 000 units (show all your working). [2] Total contribution is the difference between total sales revenue and total variable costs. At an output of 20 000 units TR = $200 000 TVC = $100 000 (TC = $150 000; TFC = $50 000) = $200 000 – $100 000 = $100 000 To calculate TVC, take total costs and subtract fixed costs, as follows $150 000 minus $50 000 = $100 000 – 5 – M21/3/BUSMT/SP2/ENG/TZ0/XX/M Candidates that do not show any working and simply write 100 000 can only be awarded [1]. (c) Explain whether an increase in total fixed costs has an impact on unit contribution. [2] Award [1] for a statement such as “it will have no impact”. Award a further [1] for an explanation such as “unit contribution is the difference between the selling price and its variable cost, therefore an increase in fixed costs will have no impact on unit contribution”. – 6 – M21/3/BUSMT/SP2/ENG/TZ0/XX/M 2. (a) Describe one step in the development of a brand. [2] Common steps in developing a brand include: • consideration of the business’ strategy • identification of the target market • doing market research • focusing on any one of the four Ps for purposeful positioning • development of market vision around the USP • selection of a name and logo • development of a marketing strategy. Accept any other relevant step. Candidates do not have to use identical wording to the above. Award [1] for identification of a step and [2] for an appropriate description of it. (b) Calculate: (i) which store made the highest net profit before interest and tax (no working required); [1] Store 1 Store 2 Store 3 $90 000 $103 000 $85 000 –$66 000 –$76 000 –$67 000 $24 000 $27 000 $18 000 Store 2 made the highest profit. Award [1] for the correct answer. Working not required. (ii) which store had the highest profitability (show all your working). [2] $24 000 13.33 % $180 000 = = $27 000 12.11 % $223 000 = $18 000 10.59 % $170 000 Store 1 had the highest profitability. Award [1] for correct working and [1] for correct answer. Own figure rule applies. On this question, to get marks for correct working, candidates must provide all three calculations and perform all three calculations correctly. Disregard minor errors of rounding provided that those errors are irrelevant to correct determination of which store had the highest profitability. – 7 – M21/3/BUSMT/SP2/ENG/TZ0/XX/M (c) Calculate: (i) TPS’ equity; [1] $200 000 [total assets] – $120 000 [total liabilities] = Equity = $80 000 Award [1] for the correct answer. (ii) TPS’ return on capital employed (ROCE) (show all your working).
