    Thought I did fairly well, short questions threw me a bit but eventually after reading through them a few times they were ok. Question 5 was handy decision making question. I found Question 4 to be the hardest.

    In my opinion I felt the mcq’s were quite a bit tougher than norm but there were a few easier questions in section B.

    For me question 5 was the toughest as I hadn’t seen a decision making question like that before.

    I wish everyone the best of luck with their results.

    Also a massive thank you to this wonderful site!

    Lack of time, I had to rush a bit the MCQs. I think some of the MCQs are too long/too many calculations to do considering they give 2 points each only.

    Question 4 was the hardest in my opinion as there was a lot to read and a lot of data. It was about Transfer pricing which I thought I studied well but at that point in the exam I didn’t have a fresh mind to answer properly as it was the last one that I attempted.

    just hoping to have done enough to pass..

    Wow.. by far hardest mcqs I’ve seen. Section B wasn’t the usual. I think a high score just required understanding f5 rather than application of techniques. I wasnt even the slightest bit nervous going in I’m pretty comfortable with past exam papers but coming out I don’t think I passed. Some of the question style I had never seen before.

    Typical F5 exam. I think I did fairly well this time around. MCQs were fine as well as question 1, 2, 3, 5. Question 4 was the hardest for me.

    MCQ were okay, guessed around 4. Q 2 on breakeven and 3 on ABC were pretty straight forward. Forgot how to calucate the sales market and volume share variances for Q1, 4 & 5 were tough.

    In section B:

    Q1) just multiplied the original budget volume by the percentages given to arrive at the revised budget quantity?
    Q2) breakeven chart to interpret, all the answers were basically given in the chart right…?
    Q3) calculated full cost per unit using ABC, however in point b) what did you answer, given the fact that only the price per unit was given under absorption costing, not the cost? (hope I read well..)
    Q4) horrible. how many unit did you take as internal transfer from L to M?
    Q5) again not very good…which school did you choose to close? confused about redundancy costs and percentage of pupils…

    MCQ:

    mainly interested in the answers to: learning rate question, the question with markup target cost at the beginning, rolling budget last question, ROI, and BEP difference under 2 options given.

    Cheers!
    Tough exam…hope everyone passes…

    I hope whoever is marking my paper is in the middle of a nervous breakdown and/or on drugs. That’s the only way I’ll pass.

    The exam is fairly easy to pass if you prepare well. The examiners come up with lots of easy questions and a little bit of difficult ones. It is not as difficult as what they usually say.

    our answers are similar:

    closed school 3
    75% learning rate too
    could transfer up 140k units (however, M only needed 120K)
    TP: 37
    Sensible range (24-37) for goal congruence

    for revising mark up 37.8%

    I strongly feel that I got at least 18 mcqs correct.

    Q2:ran out of time
    Q5: so confusing but closed school 3. I just compared cost saved by closing schools vs cost by running them
    part b; remaining staff morale, likelihood of 80% pupils will join school 1&2, rules and regulation from govt for closing school down penalty etc, accuracy of fixed cost calculation, will pupils deffo come back after 3 years.
    Q4: Trans pricing- went well
    Q3: ABC was easy
    Q1: market size variance: wasn’t sure but still did alright I guess.
