    Page no. 53 in examkit ( BPP )

    section C question – 164 Robber (6/12)

    Discussion is about relevant costing and making bad decisions but there is no hint of a relevant costing. The most obvious one is ,
    ‘One-off order / special order’.
    I did it, but found in answers I have to Ignore the fixed costs becz of relevant costing

    It says the price is guranteed for 2 years, so, Its nit just one off order, Robber would be Ordering for two years.

    – After reading solution, The Relevant costing does seem Right way to do it

    Also , In answer the assumption is made, That the fixed costs only arise when Production is made.

    While i was doing it, I didn’t made any much assumption, and added Some Fixed costs to “If we bought componants costs” which seems silly now.

    But, I Calculated the A) Wrong and found That i ranked The both products wrongly as my total saving was wrong. Would i get full marks for

    B) On my Calculated saving per unit ?

    You do not lose marks twice for the same mistake.

    So if you made mistakes in Part A then you would lose some of the marks for that part.

    However if you did Part B correctly using your figures from Part A then you would get full marks for Part B.
