Practise a decision from start to finish

Read

Establish what matters to this business

Identify its customers, objectives and constraints. Highlight the information that makes this case different from another business.

Analyse

Explain how a choice could affect performance

Link the decision to costs, revenue, cash flow or another relevant measure. Show the steps in your reasoning.

Recommend

Weigh the options using the evidence

Give a justified choice and acknowledge a limitation. Avoid a conclusion that would fit almost any case study.

Keep cash flow and profit distinct

A business can record a profit and still struggle to pay a bill on time. Use a simple example with money coming in and going out to explain the difference, then practise applying it to a question.

Frequently asked questions

Does Paper 2 cover only large companies?

Theme 2 focuses on building a business and making decisions as it develops. Use the actual business context rather than assuming every question describes a multinational.

Can tutoring help with extended answers?

Yes. A tutor can review how you apply evidence, develop consequences and justify a conclusion. Targeted paragraph practice is a useful starting point.

Are Edexcel GCSE and International GCSE the same course?

No. Check that your entry is GCSE Business 1BS0. Pearson also offers International GCSE qualifications with different specifications.
