Hi John, just a quick question. Having looked at your solutions, looks like I have the correct answer for transfer pricing question but I panicked and crossed it out and attempted it a different way. Would I gain any marks do you think – or the fact that I crossed it out, would this mean I’ve lost out? Thanks Joanne
June 4, 2015 at 6:50 pm #253305The markers look through everything you write – even if it is crossed out 🙂
So don’t worry. If you were doing it correctly then you will get the marks (even if you crossed it out 🙂 )
June 4, 2015 at 7:35 pm #253335Thanks for the speedy response – delighted with that. Your lectures helped me so much ???? Joanne

June 4, 2015 at 9:57 pm #253401Hi John
I’ve got to say that I found this question confusing as I thought that the $30 was a variable cost incurred by the other Division after it was ‘sold’ to them for further processing before they sold it on, however there was no selling price given. This is what was given in previous examples that I studied. From looking at your suggested answers you have deducted this $30 from the $770 so I think that I have got the wrong end of the stick here?
Please can you explain why you do this?June 5, 2015 at 7:30 am #253490The question said it would be $30 cheaper to make if they were selling to the other division.
June 6, 2015 at 2:51 pm #254514Oh no, what a silly mistake that I have made. Especially as I understand Transfer Pricing after watching your lectures and going through your notes. I would have got this right if I had read the question properly.
Thanks for letting me know, I am hoping that I have enough marks from the other questions as the rest of Section B looks promising but obviously nobody knows about Section A yet!
I’m on to F4 next, I’m guessing that this is with a different tutor.
Cheers for all of your help John, you have been a real star!! 🙂June 6, 2015 at 4:24 pm #254543I was a pleasure to try and help (and I look forward to ‘seeing’ you again for Paper F9 🙂 )
June 7, 2015 at 10:02 pm #254982Oh that’s good. Let’s hope I get there! Maybe I can plan to do that soon as I’m sure that you can take F4 – F9 in any order.
June 8, 2015 at 6:27 am #255022Yes – you can take F4 to F9 in any order.
June 8, 2015 at 10:22 pm #255332That’s good – will ‘see’ you again soon then 🙂
