Email is now a very common form of written communication in the business world it is quick,
cost effective and efficient. You may be asked to write an email during your case study exam so
you should be prepared to do so.
Below is some guidance on how to write a business email in the exam:
Be professional
Consider the person who will receive the email if they do not have a
finance or accounting background (perhaps, for example, a colleague who
works in Human Resources or Marketing) they may not understand all
of the accounting terms that you are familiar with so you may need to
explain these briefly and clearly.
Dont use all capitals (IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE SHOUTING!) and avoid
any text speak so no LOLs plz (no laughing out loud please!).
And finally
Read through your completed email now is the time to edit or
add anything.
