    We will all pass by the Grace of God. I’m praying that I pass as this is my 6th time.

    Can anyone remember the target costing in section B?

    One of the questions stated what was the cost gap I got $8 (60/100*320) 192-200

    Next question was what fall in labour hours for close gap using the new figures
    I think the new sp was $260 the target cost will be $156 . The answer I got was $38

    Learning curve
    Learning curve one of the question was to calculate the learning % I got 75%

    First question I got 17 hours- how long will it take for the 128 units

    Second I got 7 hours- how long does one unit takes. They give you the total time for the 150 units

    The maximum and maximin didn’t study enough on this topic.
    I calculated horizontally and not vetically based on the table. Was this correct?

    Section C
    My flexed profit was $585.50 (*1000)
    I said no to the participative budgeting

    Anyone got these ?

    The flexed units supposed to be the actual units multiply by the budgeted units. I think it’s $17,600

    The exam overall was simple. My downfall and perhaps I had too much confident in my self was the time. I was unable to finish the question with audit risk and the ratios so I am hoping to pull enough mark from the other questions to pass. Geeze that time went so quickly. The Mcqs was okay but its the time to read the long case scenario.

    Can anyone remember what they put for PPE substantive procedures?

    Good day Sir,
    I have been using the Kaplan revision kit for my studying and one of the answers states that another way for calculating tpar is throughout/ total fixed cost instead of using it by hours. Please correct me if I am wrong but is this way a legit? I ask because i have attempted it with another multiple question and I am not getting the correct answer.

    I await your kind comments Sir
