You could not be asked this question in the real exam – you cannot be asked to write up a process account and it cannot be asked as a 15 mark question. Process costing is only asked as 2 mark questions in Section A of the exam.
However, everything needed to be able to answer this question is covered in detail in my free lectures. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
