Example: December 2010 Question 2
A response was, turnover decreased by 8.3%, which is poor. The
question showed the industry declined by 20% in demand, so 8.3%
looks relatively good. It is not sufficient to calculate ratios when asked
to discuss the implications.
Throughput Accounting
J09 Q1: Average answer

Linear programming
D10 Q3: Poor performance. Examiner report: It was obvious that
many candidates hadnt even looked at this area at all. They took a
gamble and it didnt pay off.
J10 Q3: Poor performance. Examiner report: the area needs to be
revisited
D09 Q3: Fair performance. Candidates must read carefully
Absorption and ABC
D10: Candidates need to pay attention to cost drivers and apply
knowledge to the scenario
J10: ABC calculation well answered. Candidates must relate
discussions with the scenario

Pricing strategies
J10 Q1: Candidates must relate discussions with the scenario.
Controllability of TargetsJ10 Q5: Good performance
Incremental and zero based budgeting
D10 Q5: Well answered but must relate answers to the scenarioD09 Q2: Fair attempt. Candidates must read carefully
J09 Q4: Well answered
J09 Q5: Calculation done well. Explanations needs improvement
Time series and Regression Analysis and Relevant Costing
D09 Q5: Fair answers. Candidates double count figures. Some didnt
read carefully. Need to be more relevant to the scenario
