Introduction Have you heard about Mindset? Mindset Network, a South African non-profit organisation, was founded in 2002. We develop and distribute quality and contextually relevant educational resources for use in the schooling, health and vocational sectors. We distribute our materials through various technology platforms like TV broadcasts, the Internet (www.mindset.co.za/learn) and on DVDs. The materials are made available in video, print and in computer-based multimedia formats. At Mindset we are committed to innovation. In the last two years, we successfully ran a series of broadcast events leading up to and in support of the NSC examinations Now we are proud to announce our 2011 edition of Matric Exam Revision, which began with our Winter School in July. Weve expanded the broadcast to support you in seven subjects Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Mathematical Literacy, English 1 st Additional Language, Accounting and Geography. During our Spring School, you will get exam overviews, study tips on each of the topics we cover, detailed solutions to selected questions from previous examination papers, short question and answer sessions so you can check you are on track and live phone in programmes so you can work through more exam questions with an experienced teacher. Getting the most from Spring School Before you watch the broadcast of a topic, read through the questions for the topic and try to answer them without looking up the solutions. If you get stuck and cant complete the answer dont panic. Make a note of any questions you have. When watching the Topic session, compare the approach you took to what the teacher does. Dont just copy the answers down but take note of the method used. Make sure you keep this booklet for after Spring School. You can re-do the exam questions you did not get totally correct and mark your own work by looking up the solutions at the back of the booklet. Remember that exam preparation also requires motivation and discipline, so try to stay positive, even when the work appears to be difficult. Every little bit of studying, revision and exam practice will pay off. You may benefit from working with a friend or a small study group, as long as everyone is as committed as you are. Mindset believes that the 2011 Spring School programme will help you achieve the results you want. If you find Spring School a useful way to revise and prepare for your exams, remember that we will be running Exam School from 15th October to 22nd November as well. Join us on Saturday 15th and 22nd October to go over your Prelim exam questions.

1.3.1 Net asset value per share. R4 274 400 / 900 000 shares = 474,9 cents 1.3.2 Debt-equity ratio. R708 000 : R4 274 400 = 0,16 : 1 or 0,2 : 1 OR R794 000 : R4 274 400 = 0,19 : 1 or 0,2 : 1 1.4 Yes / No: Yes Quote figures
The issue price of R5,80 is higher than the value of the share according to the books (NAV of R4,75) this enhances the value of the share in the books. The issue price of R5,80 is approximately the same as the market price of R5,75 the directors have sold the new shares at a realistic value. The shareholders who bought the shares when the company started took a risk at a value of R3,00 the public is now prepared to pay R5,75 for those shares this is fair to the existing shareholders because the new shareholders are paying a realistic price without taking the initial risk.
1.5 TWO points Quote figures Any TWO valid points e.g. The debt-equity ratio of 0,2 : 1 is low, which indicates the company is not heavily funded by equity which means it is in a low-risk position. The ROTCE of 23% exceeds the interest rates of between 13% and 15% which means that the company can gear up its returns to shareholders by making use of borrowed funds.
