g. Calculations of all the ratios appearing in the word document part.
h. Referencing and materials to compile the report.

Please remember to reference clearly. The contents of the report not referenced properly
will indicate the sign of plagiarism.

Any sign of plagiarism will not just cancel your project but all the members of the
group will get F grade in project.

In the assigned session you need to be formally dressed up like you are there to convince
the financer as this is not only the practice for you for your professional life but also in
this case he will grade your report. So in order to analyze your effort the questions will be
asked to you individually 2 questions for each member. More wrong answers will result
in fewer marks for individual member and also result in deduction of group marks as this
will show lack of coordination in between the group members.

Best of efforts
