    So frustrating when they give you something random in section C,

    I had Tree Decisions, explain the process and what the numbers means
    And ROI & RI questions for the other Section C

    Section B was weird too, no variance, Bottleneck, Minimax, learning curve questions

    Section A was decent, other than that…

    Might just stop doing 3 years of past papers questions and instead do random questions

    The exam went well.
    Section A was fairly easy. Section B I got ABC, Linear Programming and Variances.
    Section C I got Financial and Non financial and ZBB.
    In all it was a good exam.
    Thanks to John Moffat for his lectures.

    The Transfer pricing question was so confusing. I chose a decrease of 50000 because there was no direct attributable fixed costs from not selling to the other division. I’ve forgotten the names of the divisions. Same here, I had to read the ABC question numerous times. It looked easy but mehn there were big distractors.

    That CVP question in section C about the hotel was tough! I wasn’t used to calculating variable costs from the gross profit margin, whenever I’ve done those kinds of qs in the past, contribution has been pretty easy to figure out. I really liked the other section C about the trust, though.
