Thank you so much!
I forgot that we are dealing with quarter.

[sooha]

thank you so much, you always help me and give me a good advice,

I need to study it again, it seems that i haven’t quit understanded it, or as you said there must have been something else wrong .

thank you! appreciate your help!

[sooha]

thank you that was very helpful,
i have other questions
just to understand if i have capital investment figure and research and development cost which is not included in the initial figure. should i add it or not ?

what about marketing and training cost ?

Actually that what I’ve got in the exam that i’ve sat on march which i didn’t pass along with the PM exam.
i got weak percentage in the investment appraisal syllabus that mean this question was wrong since i add the R & D to the initial investment

[sooha]

Why would you take APM?!!

[sooha]

It seems PM syllabus love me so much and don’t want me to move on …

46 47 48 base on this score,I will have to site two exam and i will pass … yay

[sooha]

I suggest to start studying FR and if you didn’t pass the PM you can sit the exam again along with FR ..

[sooha]

I can’t wait till 14 April ??

[sooha]

You are right , it strange most of of the exam theory based. And alot of syllabus it supposed to be important didn’t come in the exam.

Beside most the questions either more the one option or write the answer for both B and A

[sooha]

has anyone get the cost gap of beta? what was the correct answer is it 30?

what about the question that asked if the approach to reduce time spend review the crime or somthing like that was efficiency of efficiency and economy?

i think if don’t past this time i will quit it has been more than year i am trying.

[sooha]

Hello! that is so nice of you! i am touched thank you!

i feel optimistic this time, i am trying my best honestly, thank you for the advises , I’ll try to follow your approach by starting with section C

i don’t know what will happened in the exam day let hope that i get it right this time.

thank you^^

[sooha]

why we didn’t calculate the Idle time as the project will take 500 labour hour in total

[sooha]

Thank you appreciate your help ,

i know it doesn’t make sense to answer uncertain question.

[sooha]

thank you for the explanation, i sit an exam but i faced Technical issue in the second week so i lost the exam how ever i wouldn’t pass it even though this is the 4 attempt

as i understood that cost plus is to determent a profit from the cost whether it is by mark up or margin.

and the target cost is setting selling price then desirable profit and base on the determine the cost gap between the actual production cost and the cost they want to earn the desirable profit.

in the question all the cost number was above hundred and they gave me selling price of 2$ and desirable profit of 20% okay

if i want a 20% profit from selling price 2$ by cost plus pricing it would be 2/80*20= the profit will be 0.5 while the cost 1.5

but then they told me that the company use mark up on sell of 15% ?? how is that the desirable profit is 20% while the mark up is 15% and if that the case the number is to small compare to the actual production cost above 100 ???

if i used the mark up the cost will be 2/115*85=1.47 this will not give me a profit of 20%

[sooha]

I give up, it is become annoying, I !? not even careing about the learning purpose anymore as much as I care on the just passing the exam..

[sooha]

thank you so much could you please take it easy on me , i am not asking you to do my homework nor the calculation, i simply want the idea and the approach to this question.

i appreciate if you help me with number 2 and 3 as well!

let assume that that this what i have remembered from the exam which I’ve sit in on last Wednesday,
the number is may not actually correct, just want to know the idea because it made me so confused and i couldn’t come to solution, i am totally certain that i will have to set the exam again, appreciate little support here to make me through next time.

[sooha]

thank you for explaining, that how i approached it , however the answers in Kaplan p is the bottleneck

The first step is to identify the bottleneck.
Process P output is 6 × 8 × 0.9 = 43.2 per hour. Process Q output is 9 × 6 × 0.85 = 45.9 per
hour. In the absence of other information, then process P is slower, and so is the bottleneck.

[sooha]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it

Now it is clear .

[sooha]

Is it possible to explain to me what is investment return percentage? What can I use it for in target cost

[sooha]

Thank you !
I am not think it said in the exam ?I got this question in the exam the target cost supposed to be easy compared to other but I could solve a single requirement

[sooha]

thank you!

[sooha]

thank you, but in then they continued and say “Blunt is certain that the project will involve an
incremental 500 labour hours” isn’t that meant the fixed cost was only incurred for the project?

[sooha]

thank you it helps ^^

[sooha]

yes thank you^^
