Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B, C

A resource audit is a technique for identifying and evaluating the resources that an organisation has or needs to achieve its objectives. It helps to assess the availability and quality of an organisation's resources, such as human, physical, financial and intangible resources. Therefore, options A, B and C are correct answers, as they should be included in the resource audit for Exquisite Analogue. They describe different types of resources that the organisation has and that contribute to its performance and potential. Option A describes a physical resource, which is a tangible asset that an organisation owns or uses, such as buildings, equipment or materials. Option B describes an intangible resource, which is a non-physical asset that an organisation owns or uses, such as intellectual property, brand or reputation. Option C describes a human resource, which is a person or group that an organisation employs or engages, such as staff, managers or customers. Option D is not a correct answer, as it should not be included in the resource audit for Exquisite Analogue. It describes a threat that affects the organisation externally, not a resource that the organisation has or needs internally. Option E is not a correct answer, as it should not be included in the resource audit for Exquisite Analogue. It describes a factor that affects the organisation externally, not a resource that the organisation has or needs internally.

I feel pretty confident about this one. The key resources seem to be the recording studios, the back catalogue, and any awards or offers related to the company. I'll make sure to select those three options.

I think the key is to identify the physical and financial assets that the company owns or controls. The tax changes could also be relevant, so I'll make sure to include that.

I'm with you all on A, B, and E. Although the Paris studio does sound a bit fancy for a resource audit. Hope they're not wasting money on croissants and beret rentals over there.
