    There are two ways of calculating planning and operational variances. They give different answers but the examiner has said that she will accept either method.

    BPP have changed the way they do it.

    If you have already learned a method then stick to what you have learned.

    (The examiners answer to past question ‘Truffle’ does it the ‘new’ way. If you want to see it done the ‘old’ way then you will find a link to it on the main F5 page. Either answer would get full marks.)

    Hello Sir
    Regarding choosing the 7,500 ev answer, due to it giving the highest return with strong demand.
    The issue is we have not been told wether the demand will be strong moderate or weak, and perfect information could gurantee us one out of the 3 options. So again why and how did you know we should pick the highest strong demand return option.

    I have no idea what example you are referring to. I assume it is a question from the BPP Revision Kit since you have posted your question under that heading, but I have no idea which question.
