Hi Peggy,
Can you please be kind to tell me what study text and practice question that you have used for P6 (MYS)? Where can I buy a copy of it? I really need them for the upcoming Dec exam as I’m planning to self-study for it.
Your reply would be much helpful to me.
Thank you.Thanks sir for your reply. I have no problem with Q2 and Q3 now. But for Q1, I still need more explanation from sir.
I actually found this explanation in Acca F5 technical articles
“…. When assessing the performance of a manager we should only consider costs and revenues under the control of that manager, and hence judge the manager on controllable profit. In assessing the success of the division, our focus should be on costs and revenues that are traceable to the division and hence judge the division on traceable profit. For example, depreciation on divisional machinery would not be included as a controllable cost in a profit centre. This is because the manager has no control over investment in fixed assets. It would, however, be included as a traceable fixed cost in assessing the performance of the division.”I don’t really understand this but I feel like there are some differences between traceable and controllable. Correct me if I’m wrong.
