KPMG经典24题
The Classical 24 Numerical Reas
Answers:
1.E (28x200+25x100)/(100%-10%)=9000
2.C (20x250+16x300) x6%=588
3.B Region E (permanent: temporary)=3:2
Region SE Total: 400 Permanent: 150 Temporary: 250
(New) Permanent: 400x3/5=240
Temporary: 400x2/5=160 所以我们可以得出P增加了90人,T减少了90人
90x(30-18)=1080
(我们可以用其他方法算,但是却不是最节约时间的算法)
4.E 目测,(SE和SW的P每小时接的电话数是最高的,而且SW的P的人数多,所以总数上SW可

不管在Yr 1,用了多少英镑买泰铢,我们要知道的是在Yr 2,8000泰铢可换多少英镑,所以用第二年的汇率,而不是第一年的。
注意remainder说明是算差的
18. F
1000x1.52/1.62x11.1=10415
19. D
(65.4-61.8)/61.8=5.8% 升值,这是直接法,所以在Yr 1,1英镑可换65.4泰铢,而Yr 2,1英镑之可以换到61.8的泰铢,这说明泰铢升值了。
(这里英镑是基准货币)
这道题原始的解法应该是:(1/61.8-1/65.4)/1/65.4

KPMG经典36题

答案详解
T
F
C
F
原文是说Examination of competitors使得planner can develop and sustain…,而不是competitor analysis.至于competitor analysis可以不可以,文中没提,所以CAN’T SAY。
文中第二句话,….where it might stem in the future. 所以是T。
有些人认为是错的,因为文中说“must first establish from where the competition currently stem…”.但是题目是说“involves” ,并没有说only involve,所以这题是对的。
仍然是文中第二句话,这与话里的关联词是and,是并列关系,不存在比较关系。
究竟有没有比较关系我们不清楚,所以是CAN’T SAY. (通常情况下,问题里有比较关系的,答案都是CAN’T SAY。
)
文中根本没有提及。
所以CAN’T SAY.
文中第一句话,第二行里“perfectly informed”和“little part”意思相反。
所以F
文中没有提及。
CAN’ SAY 一般问题中有only,都是错,或是没有提及。
第一句话,第二行。
文中是说consumers,而不是some consumers.范围错了。
所以是F
文中第三,第四行,意思相同,所以T
文中是用AND 连接的并列关系,而不是比较关系。
是否有比较关系不清楚,文中为提及。
所以CAN'TSAY
T文中第3行,“The minimum number of directors is two,…”
文中倒数第3行。
这句话是说appointed as a director under Insolvency Act,而不是individual bankruptcy.至于individual bankruptcy是不是也under Insolvency Act,文中未提及,所以CAN'TSAY.
文中最后一句话,只涉及到最少,没有说到上限,所以CAN’T SAY.
文中第二句话,于第二句意思相反,所以F
文中倒数第二局,同义。
T
中文未提及goals and expectations. 所以CAN’T SAY (一般UNLIKEL Y,这种词出现,都是C)—一般如果出了没见过的名词基本上都是C
最后一句话,意思相反,F
17.The purchasing behavior of consumers is unpredictable.---主语,宾语很重要
文中为明确提及unpredictable或是Predictable。
所以CAN’T SAY
T最后一句话,意思相同。
CAN’T SAY 文中没有这个比较,有比较级一般都是C
文中第三行。
意思相反。
F (一般有not subject to,都是F)
这道题很tricky. 问题并没有说是什么move over to a marketing approach,会normally doubled.所以CAN'T
SAY
22 The boundaries of a corporate entity can only be assessed in the context of wider environment trends.
F意思相反,并不是ONLY,而且缺少了thatinfluencethebusiness(但也有答案是C),不过我个人倾向于F
23. A corporate mission statement enables top management to define the future direction of a business.
T文中第一句。
同义
24 Marketing planning does not often take account of the corporate mission statement.
T原文倒数第二行“This stage is often overlooked in marketing planning”,意思相同。
被动换成主动叙述。
CAN'tSAY。
未提及。
(arelikelyto通常是C)
T最后一句,意思相同
CAN'tSAY未提及。
F文中倒数第二局,一个是require,一个是create.
CAN'tSAY未提及
CAN'tSAY.未提及
T文中倒数第三句。
F文中倒数第二句中可得出“Sufficientallowance"可以preventbaddebts,而不是"Prudencerule"
FMust错,文中倒数第二句中说到,如果没有的话,可以依据PartnershipACTOthers:
Fpostive不对,文中最后一句说了,是unfortunately
F文中是assume,但是问题中是inpractice
Fnecessary,太武断性,与文中表达不符。
这只是文中提及的一种方法,下面还有ontheotherhand,第二种方法。

This act covers any information stored on a computer that identifies a living individual. Companies holding such information must, under the terms of the act, make sure that they take adequate care of the data , both technically and in terms of the behavior of the organization. The personal data stored has to be protected from loss, destruction or damage.Example1. Any information stored about a named individual currently working for an organization is subject to the data protection act.Example1. TExample2. As long as any data about a named individual is managed in a technically adequate way, there are no other restrictions as to how it can be used or handled. FExample3. Damage to data held about named individuals represents the biggest threat to its proper management .CExample4. Data about named individuals who have left a company is not subject to the act. FSection ACompetitor analysis involves the examination of competitors in order that the planner can develop and sustain superior competitive performance for the organization. This statement belies the fact that in order to do this one must first establish from where the competition currently stems and from where it might stem in the future. One also has to consider and appraise competitors’ present and likely future objectives and strategies, and their likely reactions to the competitive moves that an organization might make.1. Planners can only sustain superior performance for their organization by doing competitor analysis.2. Effective competitor analysis involves looking into the future.3. It is easier to establish where competition currently stems from, rather than where it might stem from in the future.4. It is not always apparent to organizations who their competitors are.Section BThe model of consumer behavior on which neo-classical demand theory is based implies that consumers are perfectly informed about the price and quality characteristics of the products on offer, and are constantly altering their expenditure patterns in response to price and quality changes, so as to maximize their total utility (satisfaction). This model is unrealistic, as the range of products on offer in modern markets is immense, and no consumer has the knowledge or inclination to acquire the information that would be needed to make choices in this way.5. Being up to date with product information plays little part in neo-classical demand theory.6. Neo-classical demand theory is only one of a number of models of consumer behavior.7. There are some consumers who are perfectly informed about the price and quality characteristics of products on offer.8. Maximizing the total utility of a product purchase implies consideration of both price and quality characteristics.Section CThe business of the company shall be managed by the directors who, subject to the law, the memorandum and articles of association, and any direction given by special resolution, may exercise all the powers of the company. The minimum number of directors is two; there is no maximum number. The directors, or the company by special resolution, may appoint as a director any person who is willing to act as a director, provided he or she is not a bankrupt or disqualified from acting as a director under the insolvency act. Directors need not hold shares in the company, but normally they will be required to hold at least a specific minimum shareholding.9. New directors tend to be appointed by existing directors rather than by special resolution.10. The company cannot operate with only one director.11. Individual bankruptcy is governed by the insolvency act.12. There is no upper limit to the number of shares any director can hold. Section DIn most organizations, conflict between groups is quite common. Organizations usually develop differences between functional groups, such as sales and manufacturing, as a means of responding to diversity and uncertainty in their particular environment. Manufacturing must organize for stability and efficiency while sales must organize to relate to and service customers. To accomplish these diverse tasks, sales must hire different people from manufacturing, and each must manage its people in accordance with their unique expectations and the functions’ task requirements. If such differences did not exist, neither group could get its job done effectively.13. Functional groups within a single organization are not subject to different forms of uncertainty.14. Conflict between groups is the inevitable result of functional groups having to respond to their own unique environments.15. Manufacturing and sales are unlikely to have the same goals and expectations.16. The reality of functional differences does mean that different groups cannot operate effectively.。
