Presentation Mantras for Business Studies Exam
Presentation Mantras for Business Studies Exam
Business Studies is a scoring subject, but you have to stress on presentation. How you present your answers in answer sheet makes a great difference in marks scored by you in exam. I am not denying the fact that content is important but if you write your answers creatively , you have more chances of getting more marks.
It is based on fact that Human brain is divided in two halves –the left brain and right brain. Left brain works logically and analytically whereas Right brain works on creativity. Examiners tend to give more marks to papers which are written correctly and creatively as more of right brain is regulated.
Try these tips for enhancing presentation in Business Studies Exam.
Ø Try to write answers in points rather than writing long paragraphs
Ø Even Explanation to points can be divide in to sub points
Ø Underline important parts and headings of answers or use highlighter or black pen(do it simultaneously while writing answers, you may not get time later)
Ø Do write question number clearly and strictly tallying with the question paper.
Ø Leave one line after every point in answer.
Ø Diagrams can be drawn to make presentation better.
All the Best

Do not fear exam
Exam has always been a scary word for most of the students. Actually it is not that scary if we handle it smartly. Here are some of the tips to tame Exam monster .
Tips for Exam preparation:
Make a schedule for your study: Scheduled study is always better than last minute study. You get more time to understand the fundamentals and also can study without any pressure. Scheduled study gives higher output.
Take short breaks: First read for an hour than go for a short break. In this breaking time you can talk to your family members about some interesting things. You can even watch TV for that break and watch only those program that you like most. It will give a new power and freshness in your mind.
Try to study in the morning time: Morning time is the best time to study as environment is calm and mind is fresh in the morning. It means you can grasp easily whatever you read. And don’t try to study for late night.
Make notes: Notes are your best friend during exams. They are handy. Books have tons of information which you may not need one day before exams. At that time, notes are your best friend. Always prepare good notes in your own language.
Revise regularly: There is no point of studying if you don’t remember it. Our memory fades away gradually. Without proper revision we will not be able to retain things in our mind. Revision plays a cardinal role in getting good marks.
Improve handwriting: Though it may sound funny but it really helps to get good marks. Your answer is waste if it is not understood by your teacher. Better handwriting ensures that your teacher is impressed with the answer. For essay type subjective answers, you can expect more marks if your handwriting is good.
Good language: Always use simple words to express yourself. Make sure that you are grammatically sound & write simple, grammatically correct English. Having a good vocabulary is of course an advantage.
Rely on professors/teachers notes: Most of the questions you get in the exam come from professor/teachers notes. Attend class regularly and take notes. These notes are helpful to get good marks.
Last year papers: Last year papers are good way to know the pattern of questions. Also many times questions are repeated from last year paper. Solve all the question of last year paper.
Avoid procrastination: Procrastination is your biggest enemy. Beware of procrastination. Don’t delay your preparation. Today is the best date to start. Don’t wait
Tips for the Exam day:
- Make sure that you scan through your notes a day before exam.
- Never read a new topic on exam day.
- Be confident and relaxed.
- Sleep well the night before the exam.
- Arrive early at the test center with at least two forms of identification.
- Make sure that you have pen, pencil, eraser and other stationery required.
- Take a deep breath and concentrate for five minutes before exam starts
- Eat chocolate or drink glucose before exam as it increases energy level in your body and thus your mind works faster.
- If you need a quick drink of water or a visit to the restroom, take time before the exam, because once started the exam will not be paused for these needs

Class 12 Business Studies (answers to NCERT questions)
Class 12 Business Studies
Ch-9 Business finance
Answers to NCERT Questions
Short ans type (Page 265)
Q7 Discuss about working capital affecting both liquidity as well as profitability of a business
Ans
Working capital is excess of current assets over current liabilities.
More Investment in current assets helps in increasing the liquidity of business as compare to Fixed assets as these are converted in to cash or cash equivalents very quickly
Insufficient Investment in current assets make it more difficult for organisation to meet its payment obligations(decreases Liquidity)
But current assets provide little or no returns (they contribute less to profit)as compare to fixed assets
Conclusion: Balance need to be struck between liquidity and profitability as more working capital increases liquidity but decreases profitability
Long Answer Questions
Q2 Capital Structure decision is essentially optimisation of risk-return relationship.Comment
Ans
Capital structure policy involves a trade-off between risk and return.
· Using more debt raises the riskiness of the firms because payment of interest and return of principal amount is obligatory for business. Any default in meeting these commitments may force business to go in to liquidation
· But a higher propor-tion of debt generally leads to a higher expected rate of return for equity shareholders as EPS increases because of Tading on Equity
· We know that if debt is increased beyond a point , the higher risk associated with greater debt tends to lower the share price .
Therefore, the optimal capital structure is the one that strikes a balance between risk and return to achieve our ultimate goal of maximizing the price of the equity shares(Wealth maximisation)
