my section C was the decision tree and ROI/RI, didn’t expect the decision tree in section C at all
Glad I wasn’t the only one who struggled with the TPAR, still can’t figure out what to use for conversion costs for the cost per hour
I had the same problem. Really random questions esp the decision trees one. I may have to resit because I ran out of time
It was not hard, though I was quite inadequate in the Weighted-Average-Contribution-To-Sales ratio question of Section C, the variance analysis question of section B, and the ZBB question of Section B.
It is quite frustrated to know I didn’t do well in topics I should have.
students who attempted F5 did you get same paper or different as f7 was almost same for everyone pls do give feedback and what areas were mostly tested we should be paying more attention to

I think we wrote the same exam. How did you solve the linear programming simultaneous equations with 3 equations ( 3 constraints) and 2 variables for shadow price.

Did you also notice the question in section A which needed to compare company A and company B based on Financial and operating gearing. Calculating operating gearing was a bit tricky.
Did you also notice Question 2 which wanted the calculation of cost per specific report. It said the company had a cost of $2.4M on information and 90% was processing with 10% on preparing information reports (full report and specific reports) full reports taking 3 times much time as specific reports. 4000 and 500 full and specific reports were prepared respectively. And it said what is the cost of preparing a specific report…. something like that.

You could solve question two by means of equations, if I remember correctly it came out to $48 per report
Section A and B was ok, but in section C I got performance measurement and cvp which was so tricky.
Same paper you and I Had.Did you have a shadow price question in section B from LPP? Did you have a transfer pricing question from section A?

I think I saw $48 as first option. It was the first right??
I got one. The question was as follow
A firm has 2 divisions (A nd B )and uses full cost to transfer goods at internal division (B) and External sales.
Internal transfer is at full cost of 28$/unit and external at 30$/unit.
Divison B has got an opportunity to purchase the goods externally at 25$/unit.
Varaible Cost is 20$ Without including 1.5$ saving on internal transfers.
What would be the reduction in the group profit if Division B takes to purchase from external supplier 10,000 units?- Topics: 2

My answer was 95000.

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.
It was Labour shadow price
As far as i know that the financial and operating gearing ratios were out of the syllabus as it comes in F9 syllabus and the that the 2.4m$ question i randomly selected the answer 48. was i right?

There was no option for the 48$. 48 was in another question
