    Hello Mr. John, thank you as always..

    In BPP textbook ABC
    2.1 example,

    1. what is the difference between <output units> and <number of production runs in the period>? I really get confused..

    2. When using ABC, why <machine hours> are a cost driver for <short-run variable costs>?

    Instead, when calculating machine activities, I used <machine hours per unit X units produced>….
    Is there any other examples of short-run variable costs, to learn?

    I am sorry but I do not have the BPP textbook and so I cannot help you.

    If you are watching my free lectures then you do not really need to use the textbook – the lectures are a complete free course for Paper F5 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    What is much more important is that attempt all of the questions from the Revision Kit. They are exam-standard questions in the same format as the real exam. Practice on these questions is vital to passing the exam.

    If you have any problems with questions in the Revision Kit, then do ask – I do have the BPP Revision Kit 🙂
