    following up to the goodwill question, I am not quite clear as to why they pro-rated the S.Co’s profit for the year $ 4,960 for 3 months (1 Oct,20×7 to 1 Jan, 20×8) why not include the full $4,960 profit since this amount was reported at the year-end 30 September, 20×8.

    Sir John

    Non Current Assets 700,000

    Current Assets 200,000

    Current liabilities 500,000

    So, capital employed is

    700,000 + (200,000 – 500,000) = 400,000

    Is this correct?

    Less net current asset from non current asset to get capital employed

    Sir can you clarify this one too

    Question 1

    Production 18,000
    Sales 16,500
    Change in inventory 1500

    Fixed production overhead rate is $10

    Profit using absorption costing is $40,000

    What is profit using marginal costing

    1500 x $10 = $15,000
    $40,000 – $15,000 = $25,000

    Question 2

    Production 16,500
    Sales 18,000
    Change in inventory 1500

    Fixed production overhead rate is $10

    Profit using absorption costing is $40,000

    What is profit using marginal costing

    1500 x $10 = $15,000
    $40,000 +$15,000 = $55,000

    Sir John, I re-watched the lecturers, just let me know if my understanding is correct

    Question 1

    Opening inventory 16,500
    Closing inventory 18,000
    Change in inventory 1500

    Fixed production overhead rate is $10

    Profit using absorption costing is $40,000

    What is profit using marginal costing

    1500 x $10 = $15,000
    $40,000 – $15,000 = $25000

    Question 2

    Opening inventory 18,000
    Closing inventory 16,500
    Change in inventory 1500

    Fixed production overhead rate is $10

    Profit using absorption costing is $40,000

    What is profit using marginal costing

    1500 x $10 = $15,000
    $40,000 + $15,000 = $55,000

    In the case of Wye, again if the annual effective rate is R, then (1+R)^4 = 1.20
    So, 1+R = fourth root of 1.20 = 1.0466. So R = 0.0466 or 4.66%

    So I don’t understand why u meant by fourth root. Are you saying we should do 1.20^4

    Sir in bpp answer showed that 1.20^.025 – 1 = 0.0466

    Can you please say where did they got the 0.25 from?

    5% p.a and semi annual is 2.5%

    Input material 10,000kg at cost of $100,000
    Conversion cost $50,000

    Normal loss 12% of material input.
    Losses are sold at value of $5
    Output 9200kg

    What is the abnormal gain value that is credited to statement of profit and loss?

    Bpp book answer

    $100,000 + $500,000 – $6000/ 10,000 x 88% = 16.36

    Abnormal gain cost

    16.36 – 5 = 11.36

    11.36 x 400kg = $4,545

    Sir I don’t understand why they less $5 from $16.36.. They had already adjusted the cost per unit with normal loss value..why less $5 again

    Please clarity that for me

    Thank you.
