    Got 300,000 as the BEP aswell

    Got that answer as well. Very happy to see a figures question finally on the paper in Section 3.

    The first time I attempted the question, it was awful. My Total Cost line was barely over the Fixed Cost line; not sure what the ** I was thinking while doing it.

    Had a half an hour to spare at the end of the exam, done the question again and must say, it was immaculate :P

    Yup got that.
    Was a nice paper, I was happy.
    Was rushing to get finished at the end though,
    and my hand is still cramped up from all the writing :(

    That was the first time I have ever done a BEP.

    and I got it right. I used to avoid those questions like the plague.. then I saw 30marks.. couldnt ignore that!

    Wooohoo!! :D

    I screwed it up.... Couldnt remember all of my formulae!

    BEP = Fixed Costs
    Sales Cost Per Unit - Variable Costs Per Unit


    ??

    Congratz! :P I love them, but they can be very dis-heartening if you have not got the right look of the graph.

    That a relief! I was seeing everyone writing 300000!!!! It's man to be 20,000 that gores on the verticle axis but i doubt ye'l lose any marks.

    Margin Of Safety - 10000 units (between 20000 and 30000)
    Profit - 150000

    Hah I wrote 9,500 for my Margin of safety. I forgot my ruler so I had to use the side of my exam paper.
