PMdecision techinques - revision bpp

Mmpi913y ago
hi again,

... revision bpp at problem 16 ABC plc, at high-low method i found that 2000 is gone out. but where have to be the difference? for W for example 6000 unit at 1£ variable cost remain other 2000. where are lost? or because we need to calculate just the contribution we don't care about that differnce. page 113

thank you very much guys .... who will have time again for me:)

The £2000 fixed cost would be avoided if the product was to be discontinued, and should be ignored in the calculation, the remaining overhead costs are to be apportioned to the products.

For W H/L = (14000-10000)/(10000-6000) = $1
