ASSIGNMENT
Please read the assignment questions and expectations very carefully. There are two questions in the assignment.
ASSIGNMENT EXPECTATIONS
You should note the following requirements relating to the assignments in this topic:
• Where appropriate, show detailed workings / calculations. In some cases, part-marks may be available for incorrect final answers (for example, this would apply when calculating depreciation, inventory etc).
• Presentation will be taken into account in determining your final grade for the assignment. Assignments must be typed, using a word and/or excel type of application. You must keep a copy of the final version of all assignments you submit. Remember, your assignment must be submitted in .pdf format in one document.
• Plagiarism and other forms of academic dishonesty are treated as serious offences by the University and are subject to harsh penalties, which may include expulsion from the University. Ensure that you have read and understood the University's policy on academic dishonesty, as contained in the 2014 Student related Policies and Procedures Manual.
• Students are welcome to discuss the assignment concepts amongst themselves. However, it should be written on your own. There should be no sharing of files or completion of the assignment together. You need to be able to understand these concepts - understanding is often generated through discussion with other people - but it must be demonstrated by you alone.
• Students are welcome to ask suitable questions about the assignment on the Discussion board, where there should be only ONE topic running on this. I will not answer questions about the assignment by individual email - all students should be able to see all such discussion about the assignment.
• Extensions are automatically granted an extension for the number of working days shown on a sick certificate submitted with their assignment. Ensure you add this as the first document in your single .pdf file submission.
• No extensions are granted for other reasons. No extensions can be granted beyond the return date or Monday 12th October, whichever is the earlier.
Please see over for questions.
