The file ANSWERS_ …_ONE.docx, which is available on Moodle, must be used as the template  
for your answers. Write all of your answers in this file and upload the file to Moodle to submit. It  
is better that you show all your working and steps in your calculations for all questions.  
Although, you may provide only the final answer in computational questions unless  
otherwise stated in your question’s instruction. However, if the answer incorrect (even a  
typo error), you will receive zero marks. Hence, it is better that you show all your working  
and steps in your calculations. Please ensure that you write your answers in your own
