I'm unfortunately resitting P2 again, so back to the grind I go...

I'm busy looking at some articles and study notes for this exam and came across a Velocity article in the December 2011 edition (http://www.cimaglobal.com/en-gb/Thought-leadership/Newsletters/Velocity-e-magazine/Velocity-2011/Velocity-December-2011/Model-answer--transfer-pricing-P2/)

 

I have one question - where on earth, in the answer, does the 13,600 units come from?? Am I missing something??

 

Cheers

Colin

if not the most recent issue, is written by the examinar, I had a quick glance, I think it was about decision making, make v buy.  A big hint for the next exam.

Missing table

Hi all

I'm afraid one of the tables was eaten by gremlins! I've asked for the page to be updated, but here's the missing data. Sorry about this, we'll do our best to make sure this doesn't happen again.

Best wishes

Rebecca

No this one is one Transfer pricing.

I have a feeling a 25 marker on TP and a 25 marker on Linear programming (decision making) for the resit or May Exam.

Ahhh
