    is all I have. the original question is for labor rate planning and operational variance. im ok with that. but my problem is about labor efficiency operational variance. there is not information for that but . the answer should have been nil as there is not revised hours, but it is not. sir with just these information, the labor operational variance shouldn’t be nil.

    I can’t ask bpp as my only tutor is you!!!!

    It seems to me as though BPP have left out part of the question.
    I am really sorry that I cannot help.

    However, since you have paid BPP for the mock exam, they really should be able to explain to you what they have done.

    Well, the same applies! As you have typed it then there is not enough information. Since you have paid for the revision kit then you really should complain to BPP.

    I cannot help when there is not enough information given in the question 🙂
