    Hi,

    I am doing a mock paper as part of the bpp course, and there is a question asking to prepare a budget that will be useful for management control purposes, could you please tell me how I should approach this question. The question has given fixed budgeted results and actual results and information about staff turnover.

    Thanks

    I would think that they are wanting you to prepare a flexed budget – rewriting the original fixed budget for the actual levels of sales and production.

    Thanks John, so I will take the cost per unit from the original fixed budget and times that by the actual number of units that were produced?

    Thanks
