    hi sir,

    i am doing a question from june 2012 question 1 robber company.

    i cant get my answer for part (a) for the direct materials keypads

    i took $160,000/2 x 1·05 and got 84000 for the direct materials
    now when i checked the answer they took
    ($160,000/2) + $160,000/2 x 1·05 and they got $164,000

    so i don’t understand why do we have to take $160,000/2 again after doing $160,000/2 x 1·05

    please kindly guide me sir..

    Note 1 of the question says that the materials costs for keypads will increase by 5% in 6 months time.

    Therefore half of them will be at the current price and half of them will be at the increased price.
