*** F5 June 2016 Exam was.. Instant Poll and comments ***

4th was C revised mark up-37.8%

Can someone explain to me how to tackle question 14 from the mcqs?
I am still not sure.

Calculate learning rate.
First 10 unites took 120 hours.
Following 30 units took 150 hours.

Thanks.

market size variance:
1st product favourable
2nd product adverse around i think 120000
market share variance:
1st prodct was favourable but less than from its planning.
2nd product was adverse around 15000.
ABc question: both types of waste disposals have around 80 something cost and was less than their original cost.
transfer price ques: suggested quantity 140000 but other division only need less than this.
school question : 3rd school need to b closed.
BE question: interpreted well.

TP Quetions – suggested a TP price between 20 (VC) and 37 (external). Should transfer all units as has the capacity to do so.

BEP Q – Discussed the semi variable, step up, difference selling prices etc.

Q5 – Sugguested to close school 2, found this Q hard. Pretty much totalled the costs of disposal and went from there.

ABC Q – I sgot around $75 for the first, and $99 for the second? Anyone near me?

Guessed the MCQ’s mentioned for learning rate and mark up, what did you all put for that through put MCQ for multiple limiting facors (labour and machine hours)?Really stumped me!!

Overall tough paper, best of luck to everyone in 6 weeks!

in q3 that $110 was the selling price or the cost? I think I read selling price hmm can t remember…

Hm, for me breakeven point was at 300 athletes – TC equals Revenue in that point?

For learning rate – first 10 is 120 hours, further 30 is 150 hours which means that for first 40 it is 270 hours. Average for first 10 – 12, average for first 40 – 270/40=6.75, 6.75/12=56.25%

EDIT: yeah so it should be 75% although i forgot to continue after calculating r :/

I think so too

for first two a and b machine hours bottle neck
for c it was labour hours (in c machine could produce more but LABOUR was slowing down

since its in same factory same cost, we needed two rank them by return per factory hours
for me it was: A B C

no only two
effectiveness means how successful we are.?

so no of students made it to further education on schedule?
and no of students passed or some sort of success etc?

Q1- market size and market share , did same sort of calculation as planning and operational

Q2- break even chart

Break even was at 500
100- cost 30,000
200 cost 60,000
300 cost 90,000
400 cost 120,000
500 cost 150,000
So for each 100 athletics , cost was going up by 30,000

Fixed cost had semi variable element

Q3- production cost per unit 1W $75 something and $85 something for the other one

Q4- transfer pricing. Messed up completely

Q5- closed school 1 as it had the highest loss among all other and allocated the 80% of students to other two schools and relocation of 50% staff to other schools , messed up in This question too ???

mCQ’s were disaster.

Don’t think I will score more than 30% in the whole paper even though studied day and nights 2 months

Could you please explain why is it 500? I thought I got that right, there goes my pass 🙁

In Q5, i dont understand what 1m of reallocated is? And i read it repeatly about 5 times but still messy

I wrote that it is an irrelevant cost since it is payable regardless if the school closes or not

Yes i ignored that cost as irrelevant too!!
