      You will have to say which sitting in 2013, and what your problem is!

      I assume that you have watched my free lectures on decision trees (and that you appreciate as a result that you can no longer be expected to draw them, but that you are expected to understand them)?

      In future please ask this kind of question in the Ask the Tutor Forum, and not as a comment on a lectures about something completely different!

    worked out from your lesson, where i went wrong.

    actual units 136000
    budgeted units 134,453 (181512 kgs/1.35 std kgs)

    x std cost 6.40 = 9,900 (rounding)

    l 0.25 x 10 = 2.50
    c 0.6 x 4 = 2.40
    s 0.5 x 3 = 1.50

    YOU ARE THE BEST, THANK YOU

    Please can you advise me of the other method, on how to calculate the yield variance. I am a bit stuck

    Should use 181, 512kgs
    did use 183, 600 (1350kgs/1000kgs)

    I am getting the standard cost a bit confused

    You won’t lose marks for rounding.
