I couldn’t remember the formula but you could work it out, by doubling up all the way to 128, and since 128 and 64 were both in the 2 hours marks, it had to be that one.
March 9, 2016 at 5:40 pm #304860Was there a full patent cost given?
I can not even remember.. I know i multiplied the renewal cost of 200,000 times 2
March 9, 2016 at 5:40 pm #304861But learning rate was 80% why you used .95?
Shouldn’t be .80?March 9, 2016 at 5:43 pm #304864@nickg2004 said:
I got 2. something, can’t remember the exact answer but it was the only one above 2me too I dont get from where this guy is taking this calculation I did manually as the rate was 80% startin from 10 and between 100 there was taking me to 2 🙂

The patent cost was $200,000 and cost $500,000 to get the contract started.
I used only two lots of $200,000 as it seemed unfair to assign costs that wouldn’t be related to that product.
The question stated that the company was going to continue making even better shoes, so I figured using all 10 years on just that one product was incorrect. Happy (ish) to be proven wrong, though,
March 9, 2016 at 5:46 pm #304870The MC questions were soooo tricky
There were many that I had to do a toss up about and stick to what I knew.
The environmental costs report question about contingent and some other stuff.. I didnt even see those words in any of my books.
March 9, 2016 at 5:46 pm #304871MCQ I totally forget what I did, disaster ?
Okay.
Go to section B question 1, same with u all I choose 4 batches, but didn’t what is the correct method to do it.
Qustion 2 life cycle costing and Question 3 ROI I think is the most easier question in this paper. But only 20 marks ?
Question 4, balanced scorecard, I only remember the 4 perspective…
Question 5, variance ! It is reallyyyyy complicated.I hope I can pass, but it seem difficult ?
March 9, 2016 at 5:47 pm #304872Haha, me neither.
Contingent, relationship and a couple of others. I went with relationship.

I put conventional I was between relationship but conventional smiled more at the end 😛

CQ3: ROI was 36.08%
Total labour rate Adverse
Efficiency favourable rest can’t remember LOL
fixed overheards can be included in life cylce costing??
Dint include lawyer 20000 wages
Also, I calculated just simply multiplying marketing/advertising expected cost with provided probabilities eg 2200X.2+ 2400X.4+2600X.4= total
And same for year2.Any feedback guys?
I couldn’t understand q1 at all
I just 1/1000= 0.001
10-0.001q
And MR=MC (seems all wrong tbh)
Thanks
Kaz!hey mate I have much different ROI it was in the 20’s for me…I consider the inflation and the depreciation but not sure if it was good in 100%

“image and relationship costs: costs that, by their nature, are intangible, for example, the costs of preparing environmental reports.”
That to me reads as though relationship would be right but mine was a guess, anyway.
March 9, 2016 at 5:52 pm #304878sorry yea its 0.8 ..but with same method!

I only attributed one years renewal as it would only have had to have been renewed once in 2 years
March 9, 2016 at 5:53 pm #3048802 questions I was 5 minutes late I went to the living room I think I had much stress and need calm myself :/ when I got inside the people told me that they need to report that….
When are the official answers published in the ACCA website?

yeah mine too I think that part was not even in my notes so no idea :/

Will have to wait for the official answers to go through it, but it’s good to make notes so we can refer back if we need to. Hopefully, none of us will have to!
March 9, 2016 at 5:56 pm #304883MCQ:
one was (ABC factors ans. was i-inspection batches ii-setup cost)
one was ABC question was on, quality control cost and setup cost
one was protection of data through logical control – antivirus, usage policy, encryption,March 9, 2016 at 6:00 pm #304887What did everyone go with on the security of data?
I said it was three of the four, excluding segregation of duties. In my mind, the more people that have access, the less safe it is…
That was my logic behind it anyway.
