Did anyone get throughput accounting ratio in Section B? Does anyone remember the answer? I got 3. something
Didn’t think throughput accounting questions would be the ones that would chew up all my marks 🙁
Anyway hoping for the best. Praying we all pass this exam.I just guessed all my answes on the throughput question of Section B (I believe you are asking about that factory one)
Does anyone remember the answer of the decision tree question? I believe two of the questions were related to decision tree.There was a learning curve question in Section A, does anyone remember answer to it?
@katiewebb was MOS around 60%?
And did anyone get rolling budget question in section B? Despite the question entirely focusing on rolling budget I chose Zero-based budgeting as my answer for the first question, because I thought the question was trying to trick me.
Oh okay. My second question was about calculating various indicators of a hospital.
@msiraj87 I also got the same answer for the weighted average CS ratio. But wait was the transfer pricing your second Section C question or part of the CS ratio question?
Ahh! I used buffer inventory. That’s why I got 63500. Ah well, that’s two marks gone.
@leep2310 I think the first question was choosing the correct options between two independent events that talked about dividend growth rate and cost of equity. Do you remember the answer to the last question of Section A, which had funding gap as an option?
@junaid98 I agree with you. I also got 93.05 as my answer to that question.
I was also kind of disappointed in myself when I couldn’t nail down the answer to the inventory question. I was baffled for a while, but I think I got something like 63500, but I believe it’s wrong.
Strangely, I do not remember the money market hedge question where we had to type out the answer. I remember solving one right after doing the purchase parity theory, where they had given the option. I thought that was easy.
Does anyone remember what they chose in their first question of Section A? And also the one where they had to choose increase, decrease, and unchanged options for earning, dividend coverage, and gearing?
@leep2310 yup that question took up so much of my time. I got the first option as my answer but I have a feeling I did it wrong after I discussed it with another person on the ACCA Reddit page. I time apportioned the second-year inflation rate but failed to use the first-year rate.
Does anyone remember answer to the question that asked purchase power parity for 18 months loan payment in section B? I chose the first option.
But the majority of the question in my paper was of VAT and surcharges. I wish I had prepared it better. Could’ve easily scored solid marks 🙁
There was another one for the limited number of shares to sell to achieve a certain chargeable gain, do you remember that question?
Now that I’m trying to remember the question, I believe that the spouse hadn’t used up any of the NRB but there wasn’t any option for £625,000 so I believe the demise of the spouse was more than seven years ago?
For the 7500 chargeable gain, I thought it was a question for underselling, and kind of did as one of the examples in the Kaplan textbook.
I treated it as a gift, but I do wonder what’s the right answer to it. And there was another question where they asked to calculate the unused Nil rate band after the death of the spouse. They had given £300,000 as NRB for that year. Do you remember that question?
