Hello sir
i’m very thank you to teach me so useful..
when you see 6:33 in video, recharging maintenance about stores is 85
but when i calculated this 85.5 so 86..
it that right?
85.5 rounds to either 85 or to 86 – it does not matter (and it does not matter in the
exam 馃檪 )
Using the Algebraic method, at the end you use 50% and 30% / 45% + 40%. Where do the respective pending 20% and 15% go?
They don’t 馃檪
Put in an extra column and put the 20% and 15% into that column and you will find that they disappear.
sir i just want to thanks for this great lecture it really gave me a real solid and concrete idea of the whole lecture
Thank you for your comment 馃檪
Dear Sir, using the Direct method, are the service centers’ costs apportioned to the production centres only while using the step method the service cost centers’ costs reapportioned to the production centers and to each other and that is when the algebraic or serial repeated reapportionment necessary ?
Correct.
Thank you very much
You are welcome 馃檪
Hello sir can you explain to me in a little bit of detail how you arrived at 0.975. I don’t quite understand.
Thanks in advance
But I explain in the lecture (and of course in the printed answer in the lecture notes).
sir in the last part of recharging the maintenance in example 6, why did you use 50% for product x?
I do say in the lecture, that when it gets so small there is little point in carrying on precisely.
Do so if you want, but it will not change the final results.
Morning John,
At 09:36 of the video lecture you refer to the test on Page 43- Question 1
I can’t find it in the lecture notes ?
Thanks
Sorry – I need to amend the lecture because there used to be tests at the end of each chapter in the lecture notes, but now we have removed them.
Instead we have online practice tests for each chapter – they are linked from the main Paper F2 page.
Hi, may I ask why you ignore cents in the working? Will I be reprimanded in the exam for including it as it’s sort of stuck in my head by my old teachers to always use cents when calculating monetary figures.
It depends on the question.
If they want cents then the question will say so.
Usually it will be wanted to the nearest dollar when calculating the total overheads,
(Although obviously, as I explain in the lecture, more likely it will be to the nearest cent if you are asked for the unit cost.)
Hi John,
Midway through this video you ask the students to attempt the test question? Where do you get these particular questions?
Many thanks for your great videos/lectures!

In the free lecture notes – you need the lecture notes in order to follow the lectures (and the link for downloading them is above the lecture).
Hi John, I have the same question as above. With the free lecture notes it goes straight from Example 5 on pg 31, to Example 6 on page 32. There is no example that I can see (nor any question on the Test Questions available online) that match the question you refer to…..albeit I can still follow the workings.
Sorry – the question no longer exists. I must re-record the lecture.
Dear John,
Shouldnt the total of the Production department X be 27,283? and not 90,284? Thank you!
How can it be 27,283 when 70,000 had already been allocated directly to that department before reallocating the service departments?
The answer in the lecture is correct.
sorry i wrote 7,000 instead of 70,000. My mistake! i looked at it like 3 times and didnt spot it. silly me. Thank you for the prompt response Jhon! your amazing!
You are welcome 馃檪
