Hi Everyone,
I have my MDCL exam in just under a week and I am still finding 'task 3' challenging. I understand the fixed overheads are just a period cost within marginal costing and they are absorbed per unit in the other. I just cant get my head around calculating the opening / closing of inventory and production costs.
How do you all remember the difference?
Thank you

Have just had a look through some of the questions previously posted on here and you may want to have a look at the top question on page 3, which relates to Practice Assessment 1 Task 1.3. This has some very helpful advice if the question you are looking at involves the same question.0
