    BPP kit 2016/2017

    Question 153 should be favourable not adverse. Must be a mistake right?

    The cost of the actual mix was less than the standard mix therefore a favourable variance.

    Oh my bad! I was looking at it in terms of cost. We sold less than expected therefore, an adverse variance.

    Don’t bother sir.
