Honestly, i’m tired of this F5 exam team! seriously what was that q2 about?? i have never seen such a question in the textbooks and it just took me off guard.This is my 3rd time writing F5 and i’m at my wits end with this paper! i don’t have any problem with the remaining papers apart from this particular one. And its so sad that they keep on setting this rocket science questions to make students deliberately fail!
Also, the Q5 looked like a linear programming question so i didn’t really know what was going on, as i have only ever seen single limiting factor with make or buy questions and this one had multiple limiting factors (Material A and B), I racked my brain on how to allocate the resources and produce the optimal plan but i just couldn’t as i was running out of time.
Also, MCQ’s were annoyingly long and difficult! the theoretical ones especially.
Overall, this sitting was worse than both june and september sittings and i hope ACCA would review pass rates and do something about it>The target costing question was fairly okay, however the last question threw me off, i didnt have enough time to analyse and re-draft the operating statement. So i just calculated the variance & discussed the performance based on that. Mcq’s were long! Cvp analysis was okay too, i was hoping it would to come out as opposed to linear programming since its been 3 yrs it was last examined. This sitting had more discursive questions. Which you would expect for a management accounting paper. Overall it was okay.
