Thanks :(

    Marginal Costing ( BEP, Margin of Safety, PV Ratio )
    Limiting Factor
    Net Present Value
    Allocation,apportionment, re-apportionment ( step down method & direct method )
    OAR ( machine and labour )
    Over / under absorption
    Journal entries for under/over absorption

    I hope it will help you

    Hi, you're really on the case! Could you help with one particular question....'Calculate the % increase in direct labour cost before B/E point is reached for sales of 25 benches. Answer question as a percentage' Any ideas? :?

    Hi...
    % increase in di direct labour ?
    That's the question in my sim. I'll give you the formula 'cause I forgot the figure, but I remembered the answer is 61.15% ( 61 % ).

    So,...
    forecast profit of 25 benches : expected output( that means 25 ) = XXX

    then, XXX : direct labour/unit x 100 = XXX%

    Good luck :D
