I do not know where you are finding these questions, but there is no such thing as a ‘fixed overhead activity variance’.
Given that they are using marginal costing, the only fixed overhead variance is the expenditure variance (and there is no absorption rate anyway when using marginal costing).
Okay sir i think i should just go with ACCA approved material
I think that would be best – BPP and Kaplan are the ACCA Approved Publishers.
