Past exams exercise.

Hello Sir, I am checking past papers and I have a doubt regarding one question and its answer. In paper of June 2015. question 9. In the answers there is: 320-80(6/60) = 2,400 which of course is not correct. Could you please provide me the correct solution? Thank you in advance.

The answer certainly is correct - they have simply missed the brackets in part of the workings (but in the exam your workings for the MCQ's are not even looked at). The throughput per factory hour = (320 - 80) / (6/60) = 2,400. I do suggest that you watch my free lectures on throughput accounting.
