Brief Examples of Writing (From Fundamental Analysis Module Guide Example of A Third
Perhaps you might want to draw your own "infographic" for your
coursework company when you attempt section (ii). This is a very
powerful way of explaining the Business Model. I am attaching the
Dominos Pizza example. If you do your own diagram you MUST state that
you have done it yourself and FOOTNOTE reference where you got the
information from. This will allow the marker to give YOU credit for the
work that YOU have done (and not copied).

Example of a third
eg. Revenue grew 2.0235% then declined 5.789%: representing average
growth of 4.0552937%.
This is not meaningful - it's technically "correct" - but there are simply too
many numbers and percentages.
Revenue rose like smoke from a thundering steam train (in the first three
years) but then declined as if the train vanished past the horizon..
Is beautiful prose but lacks any numbers
Example of a low 2:2
eg. Revenue growth over the period under review averaged a steady, but
unremarkable, 4%.
This is explicit, and combines numbers and narrative in an appropriate
manner.
Example of a high 2:2
eg. Operating profit has risen from 100 million to 150 million. This is
largely due to two factors:
increased revenue and stable gross margins have driven gross profit up
by 70 million, and
indirect costs have risen by 20 million.
Notice that this writing clearly shows that the student understands how
the Income Statement works: realising that operating profit is a function
of gross profit and indirect costs - and that gross profit itself is a function
of revenue and gross margin.
