YOUR TASK:
There are three parts of this assessment (Part A, Part B and Part C). For the Part C and D you are required to write a business report (part C) and a
leaflet/brochure/flyers/poster (part D). Please note plagiarism of your work will be monitored. Therefore, avoid copying from other published sources.
In Part B you had selected an airline company (QANTAS Opponent Air France) for analysing the financial performance. For this section you are required to apply
Management Accounting techniques for your selected airline company such as:
1. Management and Cost Accounting Information & Costing-Overview and Basic Technique
2. Costing – Accounting for Overheads & Pricing
You should submit the report on an individual basis as the marks are allocated on an INDIVIDUAL basis.
Assessment Part C will be an individual analytical report on the application of Management Accounting techniques of the company. This includes:
(1) Background to the company – one product/service, one process, one policy you may show this in a graphical format for clarity
(2) Review of management accounting – your understanding of what is management accounting, why it is important for your company and how you can apply it to the product
or service/process/policy identified in (1) above.
(3) The key techniques and methods that you would recommend to the company based on (1) and of course the justification for your choice(s).
(4) The strengths and weaknesses of your analysis – not the company!
If required you may make necessary assumptions for the completion of your analysis. Remember to list all your assumptions clearly in your report (appended as an
appendix).
Your report should be about 1,200 words (± 10%) excluding appendices of calculations and reference.
You will be assessed on:
• Understanding of management accounting.
• Capability of applying your knowledge to your chosen company

Part D:
The Viva
Your viva should be based around the following scenario. You have reviewed the Financial Statements of an organisation in a business capacity. As managers in your
organisation you then have 5-10 minutes to convince the managers in a management team meeting. In it you need to summarise the work you have done (part A to C) and
state your recommendations. Remember it is not only the recommendation that is important but also explaining the criteria you chose and how you reached your
conclusions.
You need to choose what specific role you are playing.
1. You might be considering doing business with this organisation as a supplier, and if so, then your objective would be to recommend whether they should be a
supplier. OR
2. You might be the finance officer of a small charity, presenting your accounts to a grant awarding body.
These are just some suggestions. It is for you to decide the focus of the presentation, and you can choose any role that will help you to do that. But once you have
decided the roles (capacities) then you need to decide on the key information and analysis that need from the financial reports (different information will be relevant
depending on the organisations and roles you have chosen), but it should fully support your company objectives.
You will also be required to prepare a hand out to compliment your VIVA, which will be given out to your colleagues at the meeting. You may present as in PAIR for
VIVA. This may be a leaflet or brochure or flyers or poster summarising all the parts i.e. from Part A, Part B and Part C. Your work should be on a one A4 page. If
required you may use both side of the A4 page. Your viva will be 5 – 10 minutes.
