Summary - Out now

This unit is divided into five distinct topics plus an end-of-unit assessment that covers Topic 1.3 of the Edexcel specification. The unit focusses on making a business idea happen, beginning with a consideration of various financial and non-financial business aims and objectives. The reasons why these differ between businesses is explored, with the theory reinforced through the application of a wide range of relevant case study examples.

The following topics in this unit require students to apply some basic numeracy skills in order to explore the concept of break even and cash-flow. These topics begin by covering the key components of break-even in order to develop knowledge and understanding so that break-even diagrams can be interpreted effectively. The importance of cash-flow is then considered, leading to the practical construction of cash-flow forecasts.

Before concluding the unit with an assessment test, a final topic examines the various merits and drawbacks of both the long and short-term sources of finance available to a new start up, or established small business.

The resources we have purchased have been brilliant. Using the PG Online modules has allowed us to focus our time and efforts on planning and providing support to the pupils in our classes, rather than creating resources from scratch.
