About Business Finance and Investment Appraisal

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

The resources follow business finance from the basics to investment decisions. The Revenue, Cost and Profit mind map starts with simple ideas: selling price times sales volume gives revenue, while variable costs change with output and fixed costs do not. Others move on to income statements, the statement of financial position and final accounts.

Ratio work is a big strand. The Ratio Analysis mind map sets out profitability, with gross profit as a percentage of sales. The flashcard decks Bus Man - Ratios and Ratio Calculations group formulas under profitability, liquidity, risk and efficiency.

Where to start

  1. Read a short mind map such as Revenue, Costs and Profit to fix the vocabulary.
  2. Learn the terms with the Key Terms flashcards, which cover objectives, financial strategies and the main statements.
  3. Move to ratios with financial statements ratios and Ratio Calculations.
  4. Look at working capital, receivables and payables, and sources of finance.
  5. Finish with investment appraisal, such as the Accounting Rate of Return quiz and the notes on capital expenditure decisions.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map first, then test yourself. Quizzes such as Business formulae and key data and Short assessment - cash flow show quickly what you have not yet absorbed. Some quizzes are written for professional candidates, such as the CMA Gleim multiple-choice set on planning and budgeting. Go back to the map for any topic you missed, then retry the quiz.

Flashcards suit formulas best. Several decks hold only equations, so they are handy for short, repeated sessions. Many resources are labelled for GCSE, A-level, BTEC or IB Business courses, while others come from university accounting modules.

Where it sits

This unit belongs to the Finance strand of Accounting and auditing. It leans on the accounting basics but adds decisions about funding and investment.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the Revenue, Cost and Profit mind map. It explains revenue, variable costs and fixed costs with a simple cupcake example. Then move to the Ratio Analysis mind map, and use the Key Terms flashcards alongside to pick up the vocabulary as you go.

What do the ratio resources cover?

They cover profitability, liquidity, risk and efficiency. The flashcard decks list gross profit and net profit percentages, return on capital employed, current ratio, acid test, gearing, stock turnover and asset turnover. The Ratio Analysis mind map explains profitability in more detail.

Is there anything on investment appraisal?

Yes. Look at the Accounting Rate of Return quiz, the Chapter 14 mind map on capital budgeting decisions, the flashcards for capital investment appraisal, and the notes on capital expenditure decisions. They sit alongside the cash flow and working capital material.

Which levels and exams do these suit?

Most resources suit school students, and the listed ones mention GCSE Business, A-level Business, GCSE Business Studies, BTEC Business and IB. There is also university-level accounting material and some quizzes for professional candidates, such as the CMA Gleim set.

Are the resources free, and who made them?

Every resource here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

What if I cannot find a topic I need?

Try a nearby title first. Receivables, payables, cash and bank finance each have their own maps or notes. If the topic is still missing, you can build your own mind map or flashcard deck from your class notes.
