    See Bpp Exam it the number of Linsil (6/04), see it’s answers of part a, the direct labour hours why it has made 1.25 multiply by 100/90???
    It should have simply made 90% of 1.25. In the question the note number 3 it said that 10% decrease in labour, so labour hours should have reduced, but the answer in the book has showed an increase????
    It is found in BPP exam kits number 52 (new edition), in the january 2010 edition it is found in number 45.?????

    PLEASE REPLY Thanks in advance

    @nadir,

    i have checked this example for u and i agree with everything u said above.

    u don’t need to break ur head with this further.
    Question clearly says that there was a decrease of 10% in standard labour hours due to purchase of new more effective machine.
    And in the answer they add 10%, like it was increase in those hours ,
    it is simply a technical mistake, which is serious of course , but bpp team are also humans 🙂

    So settle this question taking this error into attention, hopefully the rest of solution if fine.

    take care,
    ansi
