    I calculated revenue and contribution for both menus with 50% of total capacity, as they mentioned in question that customers are split equally between 2 menus

    Yeah I got a weighted Average C/S ratio of 61% aswell for Faros Question C.

    Then to get breakeven revenue, I then used Fixed Cost divided by C/S Ratio

    There seemed to be alot of parts which could easily be missed with this question. Eg only 85% occupancy during Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

    Good Luck All.

    So you did calculate:
    (Menu ?1: Contr from food + Contr from drink
    Menu ?2: Contr from food + Contr from drink)
    Sum this and divide by sum:
    (Menu ?1: Revenue from food + Revenue from drink
    Menu ?2: Revenue from food + Revenue from drink)

    Yes even i didnt take advertising expenses, in throughput we need to take only factory cost per hour in dinominator i dont think advertising is a part of factory cost and for sales quantity variance i think the answer is 2500k i dont remember exactly first i calculated with actual contribution then i changed my answer by using Budgeted contribution,,, i dont remember what answer i got for each case

    I got the same questions as you and I wasn’t expecting decision trees in section C so I wasn’t fully prepared.

    Section A and B are fairly question, still able to doing well. But section C a bit difficult for me. I got balanced scorecards (charity event) and revised flexed budget. Not really confident with these 2 question.

    Use the standard margin to calculate sales mix and yield variances.

    What are they thinking putting decision tree for section C … That got completely out of fantasy…this is crazy.. having around 70% percent based on previous papers almost sure that I failed this one. For section C it was ok wired quastion for matiriel yield with couldn’t find a right answer,like they put 1200 little input for 1 litter of output with 500 of actual bottle each bottle 360 ml, I got standard input recalculated for 360 ml instead of 1 litter and still don’t get right answer. Had weird quastion about optimal price with variation of prices and quantity….

    Exactly. The answer was 0. If I can remember the question was related to the last parts of the question and labour and machine time were the limiting resources. I’m sure if the answer wasn’t 0 they’ll have asked people to put a format when answering as shadow price answers are usually in decimal places.
