To be fair, most MBAs only last two years, and accelerated MBAs last even less. So it's not like you can't even scratch the surface imo. And the Cambridge course was pretty intense, so I'm pretty confident in the understanding of management I gained as a result,


Most MBAs from quality business schools would demand appropriate qualifications AND a level of practical experience before even considering an application. The MBAs that we see offered today are pale imitations of those originally offered by Harvard, London and Manchester Business Schools. I can assure you that an undergraduate would not have survived them.

No matter how intense your programme I can assure you that in 1 year you really did not scratch the surface. After 40 years of practicing and academic teaching and study, I am now able to realise that across the breadth of the study of management (leaving aside specialisms) I still know precious little and understand even less - despite qualifications that would blow your socks off.
 
In companies in Trafford it is possible to be a profitable company..if you make losses.
Manchester United are profitable...yet they made £109 million losses.
 
I asked a question.
How can a company be profitable if it makes losses.
Only if you are an uneducated Man United fan it can.
 
When I completed my business degree,I learnt one major fact.If a company issues a profit...in its financial year...it has been profitable and is in the black.If it has made a loss,it has not been profitable and thus in the red.However a company that made a loss cannot in any shape or form for that financial year be called profitable...as it made a loss.

Where was your business degree 'early years'. As that 'major fact' is wrong. A company can indeed make a loss in a financial year but still be in the black.
 
A company can issue a loss and be profitable.
<doh>
Notice the key words...''Profit'' and ''Loss''.
Companies sometimes issue losses to prevent themselves from paying tax..as you can't pay tax on a loss.Only a profit.

I didn't mention profits in the red in accounting terms means you are solvent, ie not got a negative balance sheet. So yes you can make a loss and still have a positive balance sheet - ie not in the red.
 
There is no way you can have a degree KPR, you are the most stupid person I have ever come across.

Tough one though. I went out with a girl not long ago who was pretty damn stupid - but academically realy clever.

KPR where did you get your degree? When? What was the course/code and degree type? Should be off the top of your head.

True, some very intelligent people (academically) have zero common sense but KPR just seems like a complete imbecile.
