The service question I didn’t choose the one with perishablity because it also said uniformity and like services can’t be uniform can them? Lol I don’t think I did well on thAt paper at all, I found it super difficult 🙁

you are right on that one

I am fighting for 50 marks only no more

I had a shortage of approx 11k of beta. Majority went on the 5k of shakes. Leaving only 4500 for the cookies and cakes. Getting a protit of around 22 or 23k and the deciding if they should honor the contract or not i got a profit of 41k

Loved question 31 think i wrote about 4 pages and did about 8-10 calculations. Hopefully i get the full 20 marks for this.

The first two sets of questions in B I wasn’t very hopefull on but looking at the list of answers rishavagrawal posted mine were very similar.

Hopefully done enough to pass

ROI:
Profit = 190 000 + 10 000 (net profit from selling asset)
Net assets have been increased to 1 260 000$: 1mln + 250 000 + 10 000 (as increase in net asset from disposal old machine)
ROI = 15.87%

But now I can see that I wrong – It was necessary to deduct 40 000….I forgot((((( I believe that the answer would be ROI = 200/1220 = 16.39%
There was this answer?

I suppose I can name it rough page. And in the same booklet, after I solved the MCQs, I solved also Q 31 and 32, on different pages,nice arranged on page. I only received one booklet. It was my first paper based exam and I don’t know if I should have received a separate rough page.

Ok, thanks a lot for the answer.

Damn question 31 I didnt base it on the contribution per unit of beta.. I just based it on contribution per unit. Shakes first (because of agreement), cakes second, cookies third.. Anyone else do similar?!

My fourth attempt at this paper and did not think the main two questions were that bad at all. MCQs were tough. Always a few I leave until the end but run out of time to calculate so end up guessing randomly! Fingers cross fourth time lucky!

I wish!

Has anyone answered Q32a using Throughput accounting with Betta (limited to 12,000g per month) as the bottleneck constraint? and then calculated the optimal production of each product based on the ranking of Throughput per grams?

Hey Shehzad what was the question?

Paper was not that esay, I also chose efficency bt dnt know either rite or wrong

I was confused about that as well. But I think I added it in the end.

what is the answer for Value for money, is it efficiency or effectiveness, i choose effectiveness since it shows the relationship between output and objectives.
