Paper 1 Calculations Questions & Answers - GCSE Edexcel Business
All of the finance/calculation questions for GCSE Edexcel Paper 1, that I have. I use these as assessment, as recap and flashcards. All the same types of questions that have appeared in past exams.
Revenue
Costs
Profit
Breakeven
Margin of Safety
Interest
Cash flow
x10 sets of questions all (but one) have answers included!
These are all of the recap calculation questions I used throughout Year 10 / Paper 1. Could be used in a lesson or a for Y11 revision.
A key thing with a lot of these resources if that they are based on the previous questions that have appeared. Giving students the opportunity to practice these through repetition.
Some of my resources can also be used as flashcards. See my free Costs, Profit & Breakeven worksheet/flashcard resource for free to see what I mean. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-business-edexcel-costs-profit-and-breakeven-13011803
