Sir i made a big mistake in q1!!! When calculating the machine hours i by mistake multiplied them with the batch units and the whole question went wrong :(. Will i still get some marks ?
June 16, 2014 at 2:51 pm #176742Each step is marked separately, and the marks are more for the approach than for the numbers.
If you did everything else correctly then you will not lose many marks.June 16, 2014 at 3:56 pm #176751sir on the question about payoff table i forgot to deduct fixed costs…….will the whole question be wrong?
June 16, 2014 at 5:42 pm #176758No – read the answer I gave to Ahmed above.
They mark each part separately, and you do not lose marks twice. So although you will lose a mark or two for not deducting fixed costs, you can still get full marks on the rest of the question if you did the right things on your figures.
