J560/01

Mark Scheme

June20XX

Subject-Specific Marking Instructions
1. M marks are for using a correct method and are not lost for purely numerical errors.
A marks are for an accurate answer and depend on preceding M (method) marks. Therefore M0 A1 cannot be awarded.
B marks are independent of M (method) marks and are for a correct final answer, a partially correct answer, or a correct intermediate stage.
SC marks are for special cases that are worthy of some credit.
2. Unless the answer and marks columns of the mark scheme specify M and A marks etc, or the mark scheme is ‘banded’, then if the correct answer is clearly given and is not from wrong working full marks should be awarded.
Do not award the marks if the answer was obtained from an incorrect method, ie incorrect working is seen and the correct answer clearly follows from it.
3. Where follow through (FT) is indicated in the mark scheme, marks can be awarded where the candidate’s work follows correctly from a previous answer whether or not it was correct.
Figures or expressions that are being followed through are sometimes encompassed by single quotation marks after the word their for clarity, e.g. FT 180 × (their ‘37’ + 16), or FT 300 – (their ‘52 + 72’). Answers to part questions which are being followed through are indicated by e.g. FT 3 × their (a).
For questions with FT available you must ensure that you refer back to the relevant previous answer. You may find it easier to mark these questions candidate by candidate rather than question by question.
4. Where dependent (dep) marks are indicated in the mark scheme, you must check that the candidate has met all the criteria specified for the mark to be awarded.
5. The following abbreviations are commonly found in GCSE Mathematics mark schemes.
- figs 237, for example, means any answer with only these digits. You should ignore leading or trailing zeros and any decimal point e.g.
237000, 2.37, 2.370, 0.00237 would be acceptable but 23070 or 2374 would not.
- isw means ignore subsequent working after correct answer obtained and applies as a default.
- nfww means not from wrong working.
- oe means or equivalent.
- rot means rounded or truncated.
- seen means that you should award the mark if that number/expression is seen anywhere in the answer space, including the answer line, even if it is not in the method leading to the final answer.
2

J560/01

Mark Scheme

June20XX

- soi means seen or implied.
6. In questions with no final answer line, make no deductions for wrong work after an acceptable answer (ie isw) unless the mark scheme says otherwise, indicated by the instruction ‘mark final answer’.
7. In questions with a final answer line following working space:
(i) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working and the answer given on the answer line is a clear transcription error allow full marks unless the mark scheme says ‘mark final answer’. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(ii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but the answer line is blank, allow full marks. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(iii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but a completely different answer is seen on the answer line, then accuracy marks for the answer are lost. Method marks could still be awarded. Use the M0, M1, M2 annotations as appropriate and place the annotation  next to the wrong answer.
8. In questions with a final answer line:
(i) If one answer is provided on the answer line, mark the method that leads to that answer.
(ii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is a single method provided, award method marks only.
(iii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is more than one method provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which method is to be marked.
9. In questions with no final answer line:
(i) If a single response is provided, mark as usual.
(ii) If more than one response is provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which response is to be marked.
10. When the data of a question is consistently misread in such a way as not to alter the nature or difficulty of the question, please follow the candidate’s work and allow follow through for A and B marks. Deduct 1 mark from any A or B marks earned and record this by using the
MR annotation. M marks are not deducted for misreads.

11. Unless the question asks for an answer to a specific degree of accuracy, always mark at the greatest number of significant figures even if this is rounded or truncated on the answer line. For example, an answer in the mark scheme is 15.75, which is seen in the working. The candidate then rounds or truncates this to 15.8, 15 or 16 on the answer line. Allow full marks for the 15.75.
12. Ranges of answers given in the mark scheme are always inclusive.
13. For methods not provided for in the mark scheme give as far as possible equivalent marks for equivalent work. If in doubt, consult your
Team Leader.
14. Anything in the mark scheme which is in square brackets […] is not required for the mark to be earned, but if present it must be correct.

DRAFT

This document consists of 13 pages

J560/02

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

Subject-Specific Marking Instructions
1. M marks are for using a correct method and are not lost for purely numerical errors.
A marks are for an accurate answer and depend on preceding M (method) marks. Therefore M0 A1 cannot be awarded.
B marks are independent of M (method) marks and are for a correct final answer, a partially correct answer, or a correct intermediate stage.
SC marks are for special cases that are worthy of some credit.
2. Unless the answer and marks columns of the mark scheme specify M and A marks etc, or the mark scheme is ‘banded’, then if the correct answer is clearly given and is not from wrong working full marks should be awarded.
Do not award the marks if the answer was obtained from an incorrect method, ie incorrect working is seen and the correct answer clearly follows from it.
3. Where follow through (FT) is indicated in the mark scheme, marks can be awarded where the candidate’s work follows correctly from a previous answer whether or not it was correct.
Figures or expressions that are being followed through are sometimes encompassed by single quotation marks after the word their for clarity, e.g. FT 180 × (their ‘37’ + 16), or FT 300 – (their ‘52 + 72’). Answers to part questions which are being followed through are indicated by e.g. FT 3 × their (a).
For questions with FT available you must ensure that you refer back to the relevant previous answer. You may find it easier to mark these questions candidate by candidate rather than question by question.
4. Where dependent (dep) marks are indicated in the mark scheme, you must check that the candidate has met all the criteria specified for the mark to be awarded.
5. The following abbreviations are commonly found in GCSE Mathematics mark schemes.
- figs 237, for example, means any answer with only these digits. You should ignore leading or trailing zeros and any decimal point e.g.
237000, 2.37, 2.370, 0.00237 would be acceptable but 23070 or 2374 would not.
- isw means ignore subsequent working after correct answer obtained and applies as a default.
- nfww means not from wrong working.
- oe means or equivalent.
- rot means rounded or truncated.
- seen means that you should award the mark if that number/expression is seen anywhere in the answer space, including the answer line, even if it is not in the method leading to the final answer.
- soi means seen or implied.

J560/02

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

6. In questions with no final answer line, make no deductions for wrong work after an acceptable answer (ie isw) unless the mark scheme says otherwise, indicated by the instruction ‘mark final answer’.
7. In questions with a final answer line following working space:
(i) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working and the answer given on the answer line is a clear transcription error allow full marks unless the mark scheme says ‘mark final answer’. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(ii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but the answer line is blank, allow full marks. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(iii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but a completely different answer is seen on the answer line, then accuracy marks for the answer are lost. Method marks could still be awarded. Use the M0, M1, M2 annotations as appropriate and place the annotation  next to the wrong answer.
8. In questions with a final answer line:
(i) If one answer is provided on the answer line, mark the method that leads to that answer.
(ii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is a single method provided, award method marks only.
(iii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is more than one method provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which method is to be marked.
9. In questions with no final answer line:
(i) If a single response is provided, mark as usual.
(ii) If more than one response is provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which response is to be marked.
10. When the data of a question is consistently misread in such a way as not to alter the nature or difficulty of the question, please follow the candidate’s work and allow follow through for A and B marks. Deduct 1 mark from any A or B marks earned and record this by using the
MR annotation. M marks are not deducted for misreads.

J560/02

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

11. Unless the question asks for an answer to a specific degree of accuracy, always mark at the greatest number of significant figures even if this is rounded or truncated on the answer line. For example, an answer in the mark scheme is 15.75, which is seen in the working. The candidate then rounds or truncates this to 15.8, 15 or 16 on the answer line. Allow full marks for the 15.75.
12. Ranges of answers given in the mark scheme are always inclusive.
13. For methods not provided for in the mark scheme give as far as possible equivalent marks for equivalent work. If in doubt, consult your
Team Leader.
14. Anything in the mark scheme which is in square brackets […] is not required for the mark to be earned, but if present it must be correct.

J560/03

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

Subject-Specific Marking Instructions
1. M marks are for using a correct method and are not lost for purely numerical errors.
A marks are for an accurate answer and depend on preceding M (method) marks. Therefore M0 A1 cannot be awarded.
B marks are independent of M (method) marks and are for a correct final answer, a partially correct answer, or a correct intermediate stage.
SC marks are for special cases that are worthy of some credit.
2. Unless the answer and marks columns of the mark scheme specify M and A marks etc, or the mark scheme is ‘banded’, then if the correct answer is clearly given and is not from wrong working full marks should be awarded.
Do not award the marks if the answer was obtained from an incorrect method, ie incorrect working is seen and the correct answer clearly follows from it.
3. Where follow through (FT) is indicated in the mark scheme, marks can be awarded where the candidate’s work follows correctly from a previous answer whether or not it was correct.
Figures or expressions that are being followed through are sometimes encompassed by single quotation marks after the word their for clarity, e.g. FT 180 × (their ‘37’ + 16), or FT 300 – (their ‘52 + 72’). Answers to part questions which are being followed through are indicated by e.g. FT 3 × their (a).
For questions with FT available you must ensure that you refer back to the relevant previous answer. You may find it easier to mark these questions candidate by candidate rather than question by question.
4. Where dependent (dep) marks are indicated in the mark scheme, you must check that the candidate has met all the criteria specified for the mark to be awarded.
5. The following abbreviations are commonly found in GCSE Mathematics mark schemes.
- figs 237, for example, means any answer with only these digits. You should ignore leading or trailing zeros and any decimal point e.g.
237000, 2.37, 2.370, 0.00237 would be acceptable but 23070 or 2374 would not.
- isw means ignore subsequent working after correct answer obtained and applies as a default.
- nfww means not from wrong working.
- oe means or equivalent.
- rot means rounded or truncated.
- seen means that you should award the mark if that number/expression is seen anywhere in the answer space, including the answer line, even if it is not in the method leading to the final answer.
2

J560/03

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

- soi means seen or implied.
6. In questions with no final answer line, make no deductions for wrong work after an acceptable answer (ie isw) unless the mark scheme says otherwise, indicated by the instruction ‘mark final answer’.
7. In questions with a final answer line following working space:
(i) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working and the answer given on the answer line is a clear transcription error allow full marks unless the mark scheme says ‘mark final answer’. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(ii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but the answer line is blank, allow full marks. Place the annotation  next to the correct answer.
(iii) If the correct answer is seen in the body of working but a completely different answer is seen on the answer line, then accuracy marks for the answer are lost. Method marks could still be awarded. Use the M0, M1, M2 annotations as appropriate and place the annotation  next to the wrong answer.
8. In questions with a final answer line:
(i) If one answer is provided on the answer line, mark the method that leads to that answer.
(ii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is a single method provided, award method marks only.
(iii) If more than one answer is provided on the answer line and there is more than one method provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which method is to be marked.
9. In questions with no final answer line:
(i) If a single response is provided, mark as usual.
(ii) If more than one response is provided, award zero marks for the question unless the candidate has clearly indicated which response is to be marked.
10. When the data of a question is consistently misread in such a way as not to alter the nature or difficulty of the question, please follow the candidate’s work and allow follow through for A and B marks. Deduct 1 mark from any A or B marks earned and record this by using the
MR annotation. M marks are not deducted for misreads.

3

J560/03

Mark Scheme

June 20XX

11. Unless the question asks for an answer to a specific degree of accuracy, always mark at the greatest number of significant figures even if this is rounded or truncated on the answer line. For example, an answer in the mark scheme is 15.75, which is seen in the working. The candidate then rounds or truncates this to 15.8, 15 or 16 on the answer line. Allow full marks for the 15.75.
12. Ranges of answers given in the mark scheme are always inclusive.
13. For methods not provided for in the mark scheme give as far as possible equivalent marks for equivalent work. If in doubt, consult your
Team Leader.
14. Anything in the mark scheme which is in square brackets […] is not required for the mark to be earned, but if present it must be correct.

...Unit 4: Unit code: QCF Level 3: Credit value: Business Communication H/502/5413 BTEC National 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose The aim of this unit is to show learners that the collection and management of business information, and the successful communication of that information throughout a business, is critical for the future prosperity of the organisation. Unit introduction A business needs accurate and relevant information from internal and external sources in order to operate profitably. Proper collection of data creates an environment where informed decisions can be taken for the benefit of the business. In order to manage information effectively, there must be good communication systems within the organisation. Staff must possess good verbal and written skills in order to communicate and share information Business information can be used to obtain competitive advantage and promote efficiency. Organisations generate information internally, recording details of products manufactured, purchased and sold, and their associated costs. Businesses use information to manage not only what is currently happening in the organisation but also to plan for the future and ensure their survival. Information is collected, stored, manipulated, analysed and reported to those who need to use it. People need to become skilled manipulators and users of information to ensure organisations become more efficient and succeed in achieving their stated purposes. Since the...

In order to achieve M1 it is important that learners have a thorough understanding of the following points: • What are the aims and objectives of each organisation? • Who are the stakeholders for each organisation? • What does each stakeholder seek to achieve? • How will each stakeholder be able to achieve their own goals? By answering each of these questions learners will be able to focus on how and why stakeholders will try to influence the aims and objectives of each organisation. Provide an empty version of the table below for learners to complete by noting two objectives for each stakeholder in their chosen business. How many of them are the same and how many differ? For example, an objective for an employee in one business might be good working conditions, whilst in the other it might be higher wages. How will these stakeholder objectives influence the organisation’s objectives?

...“ Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today “ says Benjamin Franklin What is procrastination? The first thing that I did was that I googled it and this definition came up. It is the avoidance of doing a task which needs to be accomplished. It is the practice of doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, like carrying out less urgent tasks instead of the more urgent ones, thus impending tasks to a later time. But I’ll give you a more brief definition of procrastination in my own understanding and for me It means: *not being able to get started *staring at the wall * watching your favorite tv show or teleserye instead of accomplishing a certain task that needs to be done. * Using your mobile phones; Instagramming, twitter, facebooking, chatting etc. * stalking your crush on social media instead of doing your homework * killing the time by sleeping, eating and other activities like basketball, volleyball etc. that makes you avoid the priorities * gala ng gala kahit alam mong may project na dapat tapusin. But my point here is there are a lot of definitions of procrastination. Adults, young adults, and teens are very familiar with this type of attitude, because as a person it is one of the most basic norms. Let me tell you something about my own experience of procrastination, just recently when doing this speech I had a lot of excuses, Staring at a black word document page with no ideas of even starting my speech, so I got a little...

This was quite an interesting assignment to do and was not difficult as I imagine it to be. Task 2 Promotional objectives * Raising awareness of product. Coca cola raised awareness with the company profile by going all green and also helps increase it sells and more awareness fort his company and its products. * Creating distinctive market presence Global Footprint is a good example of that when it comes to international presence; Coca-Cola easily trumps its rival Pepsi. Coca-Cola's larger global footprint exposes it more too international economic forces, particularly in the developing world. While this led to strong growth through much of the decade, weakness in emerging market economies could easily slow this momentum. Furthermore, because Coke generates...

...Task 2 – Criteria covered for P2 Capital Income - Capital income is an increase in value of capital assets employed in a business that would make it more expensive than the original price itself. For example, a woman bought a diamond that cost $3000, the next year, she decided to sell it for $4000 to a friend, the $1000 difference is called the capital income. There is also capital loss in a business, it occurs when there is a decrease of value in the capital assets, where the selling price will be lower than the original price itself. For example, a man bought a $200 phone, the next year, he decided to sell it for $100. The $100 difference is called the capital loss. The capital income could be a short term or long term. A short term capital income is an asset held in a business for exactly a year or less while a long term capital income is held for more than a year and they all must be claimed on income taxes. For example, I bought a limited edition car for $10000. After 5 years, average selling price of this car increases to $15000 in the market due to increasing demand. So I decided to sell it after 5 years. I am not required to pay any taxes charged on the increase of value, but I only have to pay a tax on the long term capital income. Revenue income – Revenue income also known as REVs is the amount of money a company receives over a period of time, you can know the revenue income by knowing the selling price and quantity sold. For example, I sold 10 handbags...

...Challenges faced when doing business in brazil Another reason to be excited about the Brazilian economy is that - after several quarters of disappointing growth levels. But doing business in Brazil is notoriously complicated, and there are several things organisations should consider before making the leap. Developing nation Brazil is still considered a developing nation, and although that is often interpreted as a precursor for ‘high growth levels’, it also means that several areas of the economy remain underdeveloped. The consumer base, regulatory environment and sphere of investment are not as mature as those of developed nations, and considerations must be made to that effect. Bureaucracy The reform of the laws and regulations for opening and running a business in Brazil has not adapted at the rate with which the economy has grown, presenting many hurdles to overseas corporations. Brazil ranked 126th out of 183 countries in the World Bank’s latest annual global report which evaluates the ease of starting a business, dealing with construction permits, registering property, and paying taxes. On average, it takes 13 procedures and 119 days of work to start a business in Brazil, and construction permits demand an average 17 procedures and 469 days to finally get authorised. Corruption Brazil has become somewhat notorious for the levels of corruption among its politicians and senior business people. However, a recent report by The Economist suggests that the country...

...As mentioned in the letter before, I will be carrying out a series of testing. These tests are the cooper run, a Vo2 max test, the multi-stage fitness test and body fat percentage tests, there are two body fat percentage tests. The Cooper 12 minute run is a popular maximal running test of aerobic fitness, in which participants try and cover as much distance as they can in 12 minutes. The purpose of it is to test the individual’s anaerobic fitness, meaning the ability of the body to use oxygen to power the muscles whilst running. The way the test is set up is that cones are set up at several intervals around the track. The track will be a 100m2 rectangle/square. Participants are to run for 12 minutes around the specified area, they are allowed to walk but they are encouraged to run at maximal effort. At the end of the 12 minutes I, the researcher, will count the amount of laps the participant covered and work out the distance ran. The next test is the Vo2 max test. This test is designed to measure the individual’s aerobic power. This exercise is performed on an appropriate machine e.g. a treadmill or exercise bike. The exercise workloads are made to gradually progress in increments from moderate exercise to maximal intensity. Oxygen uptake is worked out from the measures of ventilation and oxygen the CO2 in the expired air. The results are shown as L/min (litres per minute). The participant is considered to have reached the vo2 max if the oxygen uptake has plateaued. The multi-stage...
