    Guys, so here come my answers:

    1) only division A accepts
    2) select products D and A
    3) not employ -1300
    4) breakeven units of 18k something
    5) feedforward control
    6) senior management is top management, top management does not control resource utilization. So, the only true answer was for operational manager.

    Regarding tpars…each of them was below one. Just look at question number 16 and 17 in BPP revision kit, you will understand why.

    Got all the same like you accept the £1300 question. Lol it seems like I’m the only one who chose option b for profit of £38700, n therefore employee the manager. Must have missed a cost.

    Does anyone remember their answer for the activity based mcq?

    I tried to calculate this a number of times and got 31.25 which unfortunately was none of the answers so took a stab in the dark at 46.25 simply based on the .25

    I remember my drivers were around 75k for set ups, 20k for the general overheads and maybe 30k for the inspections divided by the 4000 units gave me 31.25!!?

    Anyone know where I was going wrong??

    Think the employee cost 40000 to hire so maybe that’s where you were out?

    I got 46.25
    From memory the labour was 10@ $2 so got 20
    75000 divided by the units was 4000 so 18.75
    Then the 30000 divided by 4000 to give 7.5

    Those give 46.25.

    But what seems wierd to me is that there was given actual profit and manager salary cost 40’000. Isn’t in general it logical that salary is under admin expenses and thus does not impact profit? I have not heard that: ok, lets calculate profit and then less salaries 😀

    I think what it’s saying is the cost/profit generated by either employing the staff or not. Therefore the salary is a cost that needs to be incorporated to determine what the profit/ loss would be taking on the new staff versus potential profits
