This assessment item is designed to enable you to analyse and apply financial management concepts to given business scenarios. You have the opportunity to undertake this assignment individually or in a group of no more than three students. If you decide to work in a group, your group will submit one assignment and all the group members will receive the same mark, assuming that all group members make reasonably equal contribution. Therefore, you must choose the members of your group carefully. If plagiarism or excessive copying is detected by the marker, each student in the group will be jointly liable and receive a reduced mark or be subject to an academic misconduct charge. All students are required to submit hardcopies of their assignments in MSWord and upload to the Moodle website. You can include as appendices any excel spread sheets with the formulas used to compute your results. Thorough referencing of data sources is essential, so that the markers can refer to these during marking if required. However, you must not include copies either in the text or appendices from or of data from the sources you used. If you request an extension for your assignment, there is no guarantee that you will receive your assignment back before the final examination.
