   Hi – is there a list of all the variances and formulas somewhere?

     No – but they are all covered in the notes and lectures.

     A good idea would be for you to make your own list – writing them down yourself will help you remember them.

     But also remember that only 50% of the exam is calculations. The rest of the exam is to make sure you really understand what you are doing and are not just learning formulae 🙂

   Is it ok if i do the variance chapter at the end after finishing the course ?

   And can you let e know that from which chapter there is more chances to ask 20 marks in section C ?

   Many Thanks

     Yes (albeit there are two chapters, which need to be done in the correct order).

     The examiner has said that the 2 questions Section C will come from the syllabus areas of decision making, budgeting and control (variances), and/or performance measurement.
     (One of the two is almost always on variances)
