    Hello,

    I have the BPP Study guide aswell as the revision guide (the revision guide i will use when i have finished the lectures)
    one of the chapter round up questions is
    The cost driver for Quality inspection is likely to be batch size true or false – i have put true but the books answer says its more than likely number of production runs – however on looking back to understand the answer it says in a table that cost driver – batches produced is likely to be associated with costs such as purchase orders, set-ups and inspection.
    so can you please explain why their answer says production runs.

    thanks

    Hello caroline

    Its false because quality inspection is mainly in production run. Production runs are in batches not the batches in production run.
    Hope that helps

    Blaze: Please don’t answer in this forum because it is Ask the Tutor (but please do help people in the other F5 forum).

    Caroline: What Blaze has written is correct.
