Students will be organised into groups of 4 or 5 students each to analyse the problems facing the company. Note this is a group submission so 1 submission is required per group. IMPORTANT: A credible submission must be made for Part A before Part B of the assignment will be marked. NB: You will also be required to submit an individual Self and Peer review of your group members to Stream in the appropriate submission box. Part B: Requires an individual submission of the points listed in the required section for part B. Note as an individual submission all students are required to submit their own individually written analysis. The structure of the assignment is designed to follow the approach that would occur in any project, with an initial analysis of the current situation followed by the application of this analysis and your costing knowledge to the analysis to address the listed requirements. Part A requires you as a group to analyse the current situation and address the set questions. You will need to submit an agreed analysis of the current situation for your group. This will involve you completing an individual reading of the case and initial analysis, then as a group combining this into an agreed analysis of the current situation in the case. This agreed analysis will also form the basis of part of your individual assessment in Part B submission. This is expected to be your agreed summary submitted for Part A of the assignment but you will be able to submit your own summary in place of the agreed group work if you wish. Part B of the assignment will require you to individually address the provided scenario and apply your knowledge to identify and discuss feasible solutions to the costing problem the company faces. In so doing, you will critically apply your costing knowledge as appropriate. You need to explain how the costing systems you select apply to the case and solve/address the costing problems the firm is facing. Focusing on describing the selected costing systems is not what is required. You need to explain how the costing system being discussed fits with and addresses the issues the firm is facing.
