Hi,
I am having trouble with my calculations for EPSM Unit 8, Accountancy Department Costs Quiz – Option A: Restructured In-House.
August 7, 2023 at 8:21 am #689504There is an EPSM forum here https://opentuition.com/forum/ask-acca-tutor-forums/acca-ethics-and-professional-skills-module
There are several threads that refer to unit 8 – https://opentuition.com/topic/acca-ethics-and-professional-skills-module-unit-7-unit-8-2 – if the task asks for “effect” – bear in mind that you should be calculating a difference/increment.
August 7, 2023 at 11:32 am #689529I originally calculated 25% all of the payroll total (all staff included), but re-reading it I have only included 25% to the remaining payroll staff costs (not including HOA). Is this where I made a mistake?
August 16, 2023 at 11:43 pm #690060Hi Kim, I tried all I could do, but still can not pass the first question of Accountancy Department costs. Could you please help me out with this?
Head of accounting 70
Fully qualified (FQ) = 45 *1.1*1.25 * 2(FQ) = 123.75
Part qualified (PQ) = 30*1.1*1.25*3(PQ) = 123.75
Accounting technicians (T) = 20*1.1*1.25*4(T)=110Total Salary costs will be $ 427.5K
Amortisation of non-current assets 80
Accounting admin costs: materials and variable overheads 160
Accounting staff costs** 427.5Total Accounting Department cost: $667.5K
But the answer is still not correct, could you please tell me where I did wrong?
ThanksAugust 17, 2023 at 6:14 pm #690097Please note that there is a separate forum for EPSM – I think this might be the post you need https://opentuition.com/topic/problem-in-calculating-outsourcing-cost
August 17, 2023 at 8:25 pm #690113By collaborating, the parties have the greatest prospect of arriving at a position acceptable to both, while ‘smoothing’ over the issues will just defer them to a later date. The approach least likely to end up in a win-win is the ‘compete’ strategy as it involves confrontation and this usually ends up in a win-lose outcome.
Seem the answer is Collaborating, why it verdict me incorrect?
I wish I can post the snapshot here to show your that.
August 18, 2023 at 10:17 am #690149As I said on my previous post, there is a separate forum for EPSM https://opentuition.com/forum/ask-acca-tutor-forums/acca-ethics-and-professional-skills-module
If this is something in the final assessment, I do not have access to that.
