Hi, Can it be said that traditional absorption costing tends to over-estimate overhead costs for high volume products?
Yes it can 馃檪
hello sir, please I got your reply, thank you but still I couldn’t access the lecture note through the link you gave.
Did you follow the link from that page to the free lecture notes?
Thank you… that was great inter-connected presentation amongst the first 2 lectures.
… 3 lectures
Thank you … that was great inter-related presentation amongst the 1st 3 lectures.
Thank you for all the information in the class, I would like to know when Variable costs are less compared to total production costs, is ABC implementation cost effective or not? Thank You
Thank you so much. i really admire your wonderful presentation. i have started revising using kaplan. one more clarification, when we use traditional OAR the low-volume products are under-allocated. i was wondering if the company decide to switch to ABC the net result will be increase of OH for the low-volume product always. What if the product has the highest ratio in the cost driver?
thanks.
It will tend to increase the overhead cost of low-volume products. Whether in fact it actually always does depends on all the factors involved (the individual costs and activities etc..)
Hi Sir,

Hello!! Can I use june 2019 bbp revision kit for march 2020 attempt?
please reply me asap.
It will probably work out fine, but I bought the latest “BPP Practice and Revision Kit” today and it specifically covers Sep 2019 to Jun 2020 examinations.
FYI: the eKit cost less than 拢10 from BPP when I used the 20% discount code provided from Open Tuition
Thanks
You are welcome 馃檪
hi sir,
do we have to do the exam kit while following the lectures ?
It doesn’t really matter when you do the questions in the Revision Kit. However one problem there can be is that some questions are testing more than one topic in the same question and obviously although we cover all the topics, each one is covered in separate lectures.
Probably the best is to finish watching all the lectures (and attempting our short online tests after each lecture). When you have finished studying then work through all the questions in your Revision Kit. If you find you have forgotten some of the things from the lecture then refer back to the lectures where necessary.
thank you so much
You are welcome 馃檪
Hi,
What and where is the MCQ test?
There is a short test on each chapter. The tests are linked from the main Paper PM page.
(They are only quick tests to attempt as you continue you with your studies. As we make clear in the introductory lecture it is essential that you buy a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers because practice using past exam and other exam standard questions is vital to passing the exam.)
Do you have the text of lectures? For me it is clarify to read then to listen.
No. Only the free lecture notes that go with the lectures.
Refer the subtitles
Captions
We do not have the resources to be able to supply subtitles.
Youtube does have an auto-subtitling system which can you read off of during the lectures (I do and find it helpful!). Although, beware that it has a lot of errors as it’s not checked over by anyone. –I assume this is what the comment above me is referring to.
Thanks for that 馃檪
However there is nothing we can do about any errors there might be in the subtitling.
Since i come across open tuition, it has been a great experience here . Clear concise explanations of individual topics … John Moffat … your a great … thanks so much once again !!
My first ever Open Tuition lecture. Very clear and concise, liked the style and pace. Thank you very much.
Sir I have 2018 edition book of Kaplan publishing. Is it okay for March sitting? I want to confirm the index page but i can’t send the picture.
Thankyou
I just re-register for ACCA after 6 years. This is a great way to jump start.
Thank you so much
Thank you for the simple yet complete explanation.
Thanks. Well explained
Thank you for your comment 馃檪
