* Note on choosing the Year of your answer

Read the MSA Statement carefully to find out what year it covers.

When a statement is referring to a Financial Year (FY) ending in Q1 or early Q2, it should be labeled with the previous year. Example:

• Statement for FY2018/19 ending in April 2019 = 2018
• Statement for FY2018/19 ending in May 2019 (or later) = 201
