Thanks for the help in advance.June 2, 2016 at 6:21 pm #318927Why on earth are you attempting questions for which you do not have an answer? It really is wasting your time – you should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers (they have answers in them to all of the questions!!).
1. You cannot have possibly typed the question correctly – you have written that it takes 6 months of labour!
2. The answer is not A, it is C (you should watch my free lectures on this for an explanation)
3. OK – A and D (but you cannot select two of the choices in the real exam!)
