    $121.61?

    I got $121 too!

    I thought the exam was fine, hated the balanced scorecard question though (hoping they give me 4 marks for remembering headings!!)and did not recall how to calculate value of obtaining Perfect Information on the decision tree question.

    1. Should expand and the maximum they should pay for perfect info was 342k
    2.
    3. $127.3 for the life cycle cost
    4. Sales mix variance = 2,702 (A), total sales quantity variance = 61,360 (F)
    5 Deficit = 5,740

    I worked out the expected value if we had perfect info and took away the answer I got in q1 – to get $342,000

    No there wasn’t because I remember seeing the budgeted variable costs and the fact that fixed costs had been absorbed on a machine hour basis. I think that bit is only required for the last part?

    I hope so anyway..

    i only managed to do the planning and operating variance for comodity 3 by working out how they had calculated them for comodity 1 and 2 as they gave the answers to these in the question!

    Question one kinda sucked, I swear I was about to cry lol But I did draw a tree and solved the question.. Question two seemed very hard at first but then when I started writing it is as if I wrote my life story, I wrote and wrote and wrote!!! But I hope what I wrote was right O.o Question 3, What was it? Life cycle costing, I think it was okay, can’t remember what exactly was asked lol it was the first Q to attempt, Q4 variances, I did solve it but I have this wonder inside me if I got them right, even though I have always liked variance but … hmm never mind Q5 budgeting, I wrote a lot, I tried to sound smart in this question lol

    I think I have done fairly well overall, but the problem is that you never know if what you answered was correct or not, yet I am happy I have attempted every single part of the paper, that means I have a chance to pass…

    Hopping to pass!

    In variances, which selling price did we have to use?
    I used the revised standard (avg. market price). Operational variances and mix and yield were never asked together before.
