What if you disagree on the assessment outcome?

grounds to believe that you are entitled to be assessed as competent. You must be able to adequately
demonstrate that you have the skills and experience to be able to meet the requirements of units you
are appealing the assessment of.
Your trainer will outline the appeals process, which is available to the student. You can request a form to
make an appeal and submit it to your trainer, the course coordinator, or the administration officer. The
AHIC will examine the appeal and you will be advised of the outcome within 14 days. Any additional
information you wish to provide may be attached to the appeal form.

As a student, you are required to:
• Undertake studies and research responsibly and with honesty and integrity
• Ensure that academic work is in no way falsified
• Seek permission to use the work of others, where required
• Acknowledge the work of others appropriately
• Take reasonable steps to ensure other students cannot copy or misuse your work.

them off as your own by failing to give appropriate acknowledgement. This includes material sourced
from the internet, RTO staff, other students, and from published and unpublished work.

Plagiarism occurs when you fail to acknowledge that the ideas or work of others are being used, which
includes:
• Paraphrasing and presenting work or ideas without a reference
• Copying work either in whole or in part
• Presenting designs, codes or images as your own work
• Using phrases and passages verbatim without quotation marks or referencing the
author or web page
• Reproducing lecture notes without proper acknowledgement.

Collusion:
Collusion means unauthorised collaboration on assessable work (written, oral or practical) with other
people. This occurs when a student presents group work as their own or as the work of someone else.
Collusion may be with another RTO student or with individuals or student’s external to the RTO. This
applies to work assessed by any educational and training body in Australia or overseas.
Collusion occurs when you work without the authorisation of the teaching staff to:
• Work with one or more people to prepare and produce work
• Allow others to copy your work or share your answer to an assessment task
• Allow someone else to write or edit your work (without rto approval)
• Write or edit work for another student
• Offer to complete work or seek payment for completing academic work for other students.
Both collusion and plagiarism can occur in group work. For examples of plagiarism, collusion and
academic misconduct in group work please refer to the RTO’s policy on Academic integrity, plagiarism
and collusion.
Plagiarism and collusion constitute cheating. Disciplinary action will be taken against students who
engage in plagiarism and collusion as outlined in RTO’s policy.
Proven involvement in plagiarism or collusion may be recorded on students’ academic file and could
lead to disciplinary action.

4. Describe how to calculate the amount of GST that a customer pays on retail purchases
such as clothing, and then calculate how much GST a customer pays when they purchase a
$22 shirt.
ANSWER:
The GST calculation we should follow a simple formula. We just need to take the
original retail purchase price of an item and divided it by 11
For example, price of clothing= $22
Now, we would use the formula= Original sale price/11= GST-inclusive price.
Therefore, it would look like this:
$22/11= GST $2.

5. Describe how to calculate simple interest and calculate how much interest is earned on
$2,000 at 8% over five years.
ANSWER:
The Simple interest is determined by multiplying the daily interest rate by the principal
by the number of days that elapse between payments.
We can calculate the simple interest by using the following formula:
Here, given are:
Principle(p)= $2000
Time(T)= 5 years
Rate(R)= 8%
Now,
Simple interest= P*T*R
100
= 2000*5*8
100
$800

6. Describe how to calculate compound interest and calculate how much interest is earned
on $2,000 at 8% over five years if the interest is compounded quarterly. Keep your work to two
decimal places and full dollars.
ANSWER:
The method of compounding interest calculations are:
1.) By using the formula, A= p(1+r/n) ^n.t, where p is the principle balance, r is the interest
rate, n is the number of times, n is the number of times interest is compounded per time
period and t is the number of time periods.
ii.) Calculating the compound interest:

Year Loan amount$ Interest@8% Total loan


outstanding$
1. $2000.00 160.00 2160.00
2. $2160.00 172.80 2332.80
3. $2332.80 186.62 2519.42
4. $2519.42 201.55 2720.97
5. $2720.97 217.67 2938.64

7. Describe, in a few sentences, the difference between simple interest and compound
interest.
The differences between simple interest and compound interest are:
1. Simple interest is calculated on the principal or original amount of loan, where compound
interest is calculated on the principal amount and the accumulated interest of previous
periods, and thus can be regarded as “interest on interest.”

8. Describe how repayments of basic loans are calculated

i.) Simple repayment calculations:


In this calculation the loan is multiplied by the interest rate per Anum and then the
total interest is added to the amount of loan. Then, total loan including interest is
divided by the number of years to calculate repayment instalment.
ii.) Formula based calculation:
Through the excel sheet, we can use the following formula to calculate repayment
instalment.
= PMT (interest rate, no. of periods, present value, FV, 0,1)
iii.) Through accounting software:

9. Calculate the monthly loan repayments on a loan of $100,000 at 8% fixed interest over
30 years.
Show your calculations at each step. Don’t use more than four decimal places in your
calculations.
ANSWER:
For the manual calculation, use the following formula:
Given here,
Loan amount (P) = $100,000
Interest rate per period (r)= 8%
Total number of payments or periods (n) = 30 years
Now,
Through excel sheet= PMT (r, neper, pv,fv,0,1)
Monthly instalment= $369.91
Through manual calculation,
Monthly instalment= (100,000*0.08/12) / (1-1+0.08/12)360
Monthly instalment= $369.91

11. If $4,000 were deposited into an account that gives 8% interest, how much interest
(rounded off to whole dollars) would be paid out after 4 years? Calculate this for a bank account
that pays simple interest, and for an account that pays compound interest once per annum.
Calculate the difference between the two figures, showing all your workings.
ANSWER:
To calculate the simple interest and compound interest, we should use the following formula:
Here, Given
Principal(P)= $4000
Time(T)= 4 Years
Rate(R)= 8%
SI=?
Now,
Simple Interest (SI)= p*t*r/100
= 4000*4*8/100
= $1280
ii.) For the calculation of compound interest
Compound interest= p (1+r/n) n *t
= $4329.72
Therefore,
Compound interest= $4329.72

ANSWER:
i.) Depreciation is an accounting method of allocating the cost of a tangible asset over
its useful life to account for declines in value over time.

(purchase price less the salvage price) by the number of useful years of life the asset
has.

Given here,
Sale price= $200
Variable cost= $50
Fixed price= $ 35000

Step 1. Calculate contribution margin= sale price- variable cost


= $200-$50
= $150
Here,
Contribution margin is $ 150.

Step 2: Contribution margin ratio= Contribution margin/ sale price


= 150/200
= 0.75
Here, Contribution margin ratio= 0.75

Step 3: Calculate Breakeven point= Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio


= $ 35000/ 0.75
= $ 46,667
Therefore, Breakeven point= $ 46,667

2. Margin is the profit generated after accounting for costs, which is expressed as a
percentage.

I.) For the calculation of Markup


Selling price of bicycles= $200
Cost of bike= $150
Now,
Markup= sales price – Cost of bike.
= $200-$150
= $ 50
ii.) For the calculation of Margin of Alfred:
Margin= Difference between sale price and cost price / sale price * 100
= (200-150)/200* 100
= 25%
Therefore, The Markup is $ 50, and the Margin is 25%
